Thome Mam 94108 NOT QUITE DEAD HE Tariff Commission kague of Chicago Is mailing broadcast appeals, in two-colored ink, Setting forth the necessity of creating a tariff com- mission to put our import duties on a “scientific basis.” The T. C. L. advances a number of argu- ments, more or less plausible, but none the less fallacious. Insufficient revenue because of war dis- turbances; the necessity for providing a big army and navy; the bugbear of an inundation of our markets with cheap foreign goods when peace re- turns—in short, all the time-worn sophistries of the high tariff propagandists. Evefything points to a supreme attempt to Shoulder upon the people once again the old man of the sea whom they succeeded in shaking off two years ago. They are persistent folks, these high protec- tionists, and Big Business is lined up solidly behind them. But somehow the bait they dangle has lost a lot of its allurement. GEORGIA HAS hanged a boy 12 years of age, with- out resort to a crowd of her best citizens, masked and armed.

IT’S THE ENVIRONMENT B ASTERN bankers estimate that this «country 4 has approxjmately nine billions in gold money, ordinary money and notes due from foreigners on goods sold, and they are warning’ against “wild inflation of speculation,” Outside of Wall st., where the gamblers are wild enough, the signs of any “wild inflation of speculation” are not visible to the naked eye. Most of the larger cities of the country report heavy increases in building operations. It is true that many manufactories are on night and day shifts because of war orders. It is also true that in many vocations wages have been raised and hours of labor reduced. But in none of these things is there any dangerous inflation, Because the re- turn to normal conditions of prosperity is unusually sudden is no sign of wildness. The average busi- ness man is doing no plunging and the winter promises to reveal a considerable army of unem- ployed But locate anybody in the neighborhood of that Wall st. maelstrom of speculation and he'll be very apt to believe that the whole nation has gone mad over speculation. PAGE 4 RESPECT FOR LAW M AYOR THOMPSON of Chicago finds himself in a most embarrassing and difficult situa- lhe mayor announces his discovery that Chi- cago saloons have been keeping open on the Sdab- bath. And the mayor, advised by his legal aides that the sale of liquor on Sunday is in violation of the state law, has ordered the dramshops closed on that day. Now the saloonkeepers threaten to force all business to suspend on Sunday, in compliance with the blue laws. Hundreds of other mayors in the United States have faced the same situation as has Thomp- son. They have held that the time-worn blue laws are impossible of enforcement in this modern day. Yet these sanie laws continue to burden the Statutes of states everywhere. This condition is true of many laws in Seattle, too. All of which emphasizes again the fact that silly, antiquated laws which are allowed to stand on our statutes without enforcement are causing a flagrant disrespect for law and order and breeding criminals everywhere. It's time to repeal laws which necessity makes impossible of enforcement and to rehabilitate a re- spect for those which should be enforced. tion SHOES| | _ At a Big Saving FOR MEN, WOMEN AND BOYS Seattle’s Popular Upstairs Shoe Store 1as cut in half the high cost Shoes through our eco- nomical method Low Upstairs Rent No Deliveries Moderate Expenses No Charge Accounts and A Buying Prestige Une- ide and ¢ weit $4.00 ‘$2.50 ,,, $2.95 Smart Coats for Street Wear Our tor assortment of style Ladies and Misses is both choice and extensive.
