It would be as foolish to assume that inaction would lift that other blockade from which Seattle is suffering—the tourist blockade. To help wrest from the Southern Pacific and its allied lines, the Union Pacific and O-W. R. & N., @ passenger rate preferential that sends 97'4 per cent of tourists over Southern routes, the citizens of Seattle have chosen three men—Joshua Greeny Perry Polson and A. C. Mitchell, Now, let’s get out the shovels and help. The railroads that hold the tourist monopoly discriminating against Seattle coyjd regulate their rates and compromise with Northern lines, if they would, to permit tourists to Come to Seattle, in making the round-trip from Chicago to San francisco, without paying $17.50 more to do so. Northern lines have endeavored to get the Southern lines to agree to such a compromise, but without success. It would be fair to the Southern railroads, because the distance from Chicago via Seattle to San Francisco and return by the Southern route is 253 miles shorter than the present round-trip over Southern lines for which the charge is less. Therefore, why shouldn't the business men of Seattle bring pressure to bear on the O-W. R. & N,, an ally of the Southern Pacific, in demanding a compromise? Why shouldn’t you have a talk with J. L. Brass, assistant to the general manager of the road, whose offices are in the O-W. depot? Particularly if you do bussiness with the road, your word might have weight. DEMAND AN EXPLANATION! DON’T LET THEM PULL THE WOOL OVER YOUR EYES! Concerning Doubtful Birthdays MONG our national sins of omission is the neglect of a birth registration in the United States. This is about the only country in the world without a system of keeping birth statistics. For the first time, the census of 1915 established a birth registration area, including ten states and the District of Columbia, covering about 10 per cent of the land area of the United States, and about 31 per cent of the population. mS The returns for these states are now beginning to come in for the year 1915, and they will be tha available about January 1, 1917. Foreign nations have relied upon birth statistics as a basis for their military estimates. The im- mediate need for birth registration in this country concerns our industrial army. With the increase in the number of child labor laws, the problem of birth registration becomes important for the whole country. When there are no birth statistics, thousand of girls and boys find it impossible to establish the exact date upon which they may be permitted to go to work, as required by law. dese on whe Most persons fancy that birth registration is a matter for the census man to worry about. On the contrary, it is often of great benefit to individuals. ture net the idea New Item in National Def ense ead of remaining the most wasteful of nations, the United States must become the most eco- nomical. This is the latest “preparedness” cry. The United States bureau of chemistry has already undertaken to point the way. It commences with the conservation of food at its source of supply, the farm. the wild preservation, ew ways of detecting adulteration of foods. It deals with such matters as the breakage of eggs in transit, which is said to be enormous and preventable. In such conservation is the key to big economy, but it is not the master key. That is in the hands The greatest waste in this land of great extravagance is that which accumulates in the garbage cans kitchen doors. / Lack of economy in cooking is often merely thoughtlessness, as in the case of houswives who pay the same rate for the tail and the tenderloin of a porterhouse—and then throw the tail away. Such thoughtlessness or “culinary non-preparedness” may prove just as fatal to a nation as military Non-preparedness. It is one of the pronounced differences between the self-sufficiency of Germany and th “muddling” methods of England in the present war. Nation’s Opportunity GERMAN writer is telling us thru the papers of the wonders accomplished by German scientists since the war began. The greatest achievement, he says, as far as is known, has been “taking from the air the nitrate of potash absolutely necessary in the manufacture of gunpowder.” Any student ought to know that since there is no potassium in the air no potash can be got out of it, even by German scientists. Saree t What they have done is nothing new, and it does not take a great scientist to tell exactly what it is. In these columns more than a year ago Herbert Quick told all about it. German chemists take nitrogen from the air by electrical methods which all nations understand. Over 300,000 tons of nitrates were taken from the air per year before the war began, one-fifth of the amount in this country. Having the nitrates and the potash mines, the Germans can easily get the nitrate of potash. The moral of this is that if this government would produce the electricity at the power sites which the capitalists are trying to absorb, and make nitrates to sell at cost, this dearest of all fertilizers might become the cheapest. There is an inexhaustible supply of it in the air. physic. | upen expres | vived |the ex jter of open-a | there pecially among the rich and| All F A predatory minded and social para.|*leeping are enthusiastic about it (%) sites—and the church and the| and th courts do nothing to annul the !D& srouP. = = <= “double standard” in law.
