In a pamphlet issued prior to his election, it had this to say: “Two years ago Adams was elected as a candidate with thoroly progressive ideas. His campaign was along these lines. He answered all our queries satisfactorily. His professional connections were doubtful but we took him at his word. After election he proved a turncoat and at Olym- pia showed himself to be a hopeless reactionary, going over to the standpat corporation control bag and baggage. He became their handy man in the house, Others might occa- sionally fail them but not Adams! In return they placed him in the limelight whenever possible, gave him the choice committee appointments, ‘mentioned’ him for congress, and now are grooming him for speaker. It would be a matter of grave public concern should a man of Adams’ type wield the great power of that office.. The chart gives him a grade of only 10 per cent for your interests and 90 per cent against the public welfare. “We begin to obtain a grasp of the situation when we realize that Adams is virtually the attorney of the Bell T Company, as he is the attorney for the ‘Interstate Utilities company,’ which is the camouflage the Bell Tele phone company uses to conceal its identity in Idaho. The good people of this city are aware of the utter disregard the telephone company has for the rights of the people or even for its own contracts. Do you want one of its attor- neys to represent you at Olympia? Do you want the Bell Telephone company in the speaker's chair directing legisla- tion for you?” The Macy Award The decision of the Pacific Coast Metal Trades conven- tion to take a vote of the shipyard workers from British Columbia to California on the question of a coast-length strike, is a step that is fraught with the gravest conse- No fair-minded man can blame these workers for their feeling of intense dissatisfaction with the Macy award, a) feeling that was aggravated by the fact that they were led to ex something decidedly better. | Macy board was called upon to fix a wage scale that would fairly compensate the men for the rapidly rising cost of living.

A week ago, munitions and airplanes were among the most essential products demanded by this nation. Today, they are among the least essential. In fact, so far as munitions are concerned, they are non-essentials, for the United States undoubtedly today has millions of rounds of ammunition already in stock, to say nothing of the arms) that will be taken from the Germans by itself and the allies | under the terms of armistice. A week ago, the ban was on the manufacture of auto-| mobiles, except motor trucks. Now it is clear that the ban. will be lifted, and motor trucks are as essential as ever. | Thus do peace and war make their changes.

In the midst of the marshes, Bremer and I were as isolated as if we had been alone in the depths of the U-boat. With a flashlight, he picked our path along a board walk which was set high above the swamp, on piles, and, holding me by one arm,he guided me along it thru the deep ening night, (To Be Continued) | : LIFE oe Double-cronsing is | are at my mercy.| and there are bullets I merely shrugged my | traveled, daid my captor, “I sup.
