Hart by Capt. R. Andrus, manager of the B. & A. Boat company, In a letter transmitted Monday. Andrus Geciares that the recent price raises are the result of a trust combine and asks that the Washington state go ernment take a hand to ald the con- sumers, His letter to part follows: “t suggest for the state to put In stations in each town and sell gaso- Mine and ofls for autos only, and to sell at cost for operating and buying. This will give us gasoline for 12 or 13 cents per gallon, which can be done, as the state can buy gasoline tn the East for about 10 cents. “I bought gasoling in Seattle from 2 station of a private party for 13 a gallon and he made money it, when the Standard Oil, Sheil, Union and General Petroleum com- panies were selling at 16 cents. “When the Standard Oil Co, the leader, wants to raise the price,” Captain Andrus wrote, “the other fel lows are bound by agreement to raise ‘with the Standard or that corporation + ould make a fight against them and Jower the price until it put the little companies out of business, then {t ‘would boost the price back high enough to gain what it had lost, and then some. “If there are laws to break such trusts, they should be broken. If there are laws governing the selling price of gasoline and distillate, the state should sell to the public so it can operate trucks and cars at a profit.” PROTEST CUT IN PARK CASH he Chamber of Commerce has in- structed {ts Washington represen- tative, J. J. Underwood, to present its protest at the proposed cut of $4,200 in the appropriation for the Rainier National park. The reduc- tion is from $104,200 to $100,000, and it is understood that it will neces- pitate the abandonment of improve- ments in the public camps of the park. It is pointed out that of the 123,- 10 tourists who visited the park @: year, 80,000 used the public ping grourids, With a new rec Ord of tourists this year practically the chamber insists that public camp improvements should not be curtailed Seek Slayers af s 74 4 New York Actress mf NEW YORK, Feb. 11—With Scores of detetcives ateking two pre- tended beotieggers who murdered Louise Lawron for her jewels Fri- day, others worked on evidence to- dny that there were three or more persons in the conspiracy to rob her.

In the Ten Commandments, on which are based all the laws of all the world, there are 319 words; 259 are words of one syllable; and only 60 of two and more syllables. In Lincoln's Address at Gettyse burg, perhaps the greatest in the world, there are 266 words. Of these, 194 words are of one syllable; 53 of twa syllables; and only 19 of three or more syllables.
