THE SEATTL STAR—TH |/EVERETT TRL —By CONDO IAL , MISTER Jones, WE RECEIVED ff " A LETTSR FROM You YESTERDAY, AND F Have Come TO 306 YOU IN REGARD To 17, On, “es, : “MISTER TRUG CONG IN AND HAVE A CHAIR. WHAT DID You DEMIDSt Give Service Men the Preference re ee ——— Editor The Star: The government stores offer a splendid | opportunity to the citizens of Seattle to swat the H. 0. tai but under the present system the service is inadequate to handle the crowds that stand in line every day from early morning until late in the afternoon before they get a chance te do any buying, and some wait all day long and at closing | time they are turned away without even having made a} ingle purchase. The general public is eager to take ad-| vantage of the very low prices which the government is asking for wholesome food and warm clothing, but there is) a certain class of people whom the writer believes should be favored, and this class is the ex-service men and their families. It is the soldier and his family who had to undergo the greatest hardships during the period of the war, while the man in the shipyards and in other industries drew high | snabling him to provide well for himself and family. | The S has always stood for what is right and just, in| all cases, regardless of criticism, and the w riter believes the} Star could be of great assistance to the ex-service man and his family by agitating a change in the system of handling the shoppers. It would be an easy matter and quite the | proper thing to do if the following suggestions were car- ried out. The idea is this: | Allow each ex-service man to use his discharge as a} “passport” to the government stores, Upon presentation | of his “passport” after gaining admittance to the store, he should receive prompt attention, thus enabling him to make | his purchases and depart without loss of time to himself or the clerks. : Many of the ex-service men are employed during the day, | and are too late to make purchases after working hours, under the present system, but the suggestion above could be nicely carried out if the government stores would remain open one hour later, thus giving those who are employed ample time to make their purchases after work. This plan, too, would relieve the situation now existing, fer ny of} the women who stand in line waiting fot their turn to make} purchases are the wives, mothers or sisters of ex-service | | men; if the above suggestions were adopted the soldier him- | self could do the buying, thus relieving the women of the responsibility, and the discomfort of standing in the cold and rain for hours. | 0YU WANT TO KNOW WHAT We DeciDeb.
