The Seattle city council will vote next Monday on an ordinance to set the clock ahead an hour in Seattle dur- ing the summer months. This is “daylight saving,’ which the whole nation adopted as a war measure, but which congress has re- fused to sanction for the coming summer. The proposal before the city council, therefore, is that eattle shall advance its clocks an hour during the months from April to October, inclusive, no matter what the rest of the nation does. Several civic organizations have indorsed the propos- al. The arguments in favor of “daylight saving’ are well known. So are the arguments against it. The Seattle Star has no particular interest in the ques- tion, one way or another. But The Star does feel that before such a change is ade in Seattle’s official time, THE PEOPLE should be Wi sulted.
