si ARR a et IR RUA SNe CC oA ROR THE SEATTLE STAR SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24 | The Seattle Star recone Isned Dally Ave Seattle, Wash. AND Entered an second class matter at Beattin Wn, under act of March -_ —_ THE PUBLIC GETS 160 men, at 30 miles per hour, thru OVERNOR HARTLEY declares that trenches, streams,. buildings and even his program for consideration of young forests, thru obstacles that would the legislature at the coming session will stop. any cavalry be one for the best interests of the state Uncle Sam has got—well, he has got an they are ready to go with the governor as long as his recon mendations are for the good of the With the two branches of government singing the same everything would appear to be smooth sailing ut the Legislators insist state, song, thing that disturbs the listener-in is that are singing different tunes. That doesn’t mean discord. It IS dis cord. Altho neither the governor's office n the leaders of the legislative organi tions will tip off their plans in advance it’s a bet to take the prediction of a political sage who has been watching the wheels go round for a long time and who opines: “Tt used to be that only half the adult population were politicians. But now the Women vote, too. What'll happen? Why the governor will plug for what's best for his wing of the party, and the legislature will plug for what’s best for their wing of the party, and both of ’em will get most of what they want. “And the public? Oh, yes, the public; they take what they can find after the circus has’ moved on WHY THE RUSH? UNTY AUDITOR FERGUSON, dis- ¢ charging his chief deputy, Dick Faris, because the deputy won't play the Ferguson brand of politics, rushes to the newspapers with a statement that he (Ferguson) is honest. Maybe he is! The Star doesn’t know as to that. But he would have a whole lot easier job in making the public believe that was if he waited until he had been ac- cused of being dishonest. When a man in the situation of Fer- guson wants to rush into print with that kind of a statement, it indicates that maybe he’s a little worried about what Mr. Faris might discuss when he retires from Mr. Ferguson’s office at Mr, Fer- guson’s mequest. LOOKS LIKE A DREAM ON. GARNER, of Texas, ranking democrat of the house ways and Means committee, has a tax reduction plan of his own, which, he says, he has not submitted to his democratic colleagues but proposes to offer in congress. He wouldn’t cut surtaxes of the rich to 20 per cent, as would Mellon. He wouldn’t retire the war debt in 25 years, but in 62. He would relieve millions of small taxpay- ers of all income taxes, by increasing the exemption to married folks to $5,000 and or _ of unmarried to $3,500. Mr. Garner seems to have a happy vis- jon. The trouble with it is that it is as hopeless as a rabbit in a cage of wildcats. {ft involves dumping income taxation upon the rich. Under present circumstances, it cannot be done. Even when Mr. Gar- ner submits his vision to his democratic colleagues, he will find a powerful lot of them looking after the interests of the rich, pretty considerably. _ WHAT THEY'VE GOT HE recent maneuvers of the British army, greatest ever engaged in, dis- closed two important points to the satis- faction of the experts. First, cavalry is worthless, save in undeveloped country. Secondly, trench warfare is, practically, obsolete. The causes are the airplane and the improved tank. “Mistress of the Seas,” Britain is dut for the title, “Mistress of the Air,” as we know, but she has a tank which will carry awful job in discovering who is lying and who is not in telling what he has got HUNT DOWN THE CROOKEDNESS HAIRMAN MADDEN of the appropriations committee goes upon the witness stand with his figures and shows that, during the period April, 1917, to November, 1918, cong appropri- ated for aviation $1, and that hundre aircraft built whieh “the pilots house were had to be discarded because couldn’t see thru them,” s of Extended comment is unnecessary Enough to say that that investigating board should discover who got those bil lions and who got up planes’ that pilots couldn't fly, It a matter of running down loot and official stupidity. PROHIBIT IT! ‘T)EAN HAWKES, of Columbia college, discovers that love many students to “flunk.” Well, sir, the thing to do is to enact a law against it. Any student caught with more than, say, } 2 per cent of love causes @ of 2 in his auto, room, or hip pocket shoyld be kicked out, if not fined and jailed. There is no use trying to fill such with the higher education. Of course, the dis missed student may take to love of the | home-brew and he can pick up the bootleg brand of love on almost any street, but why waste money and feaching on such, when students can be had who won't love and can’t be loved? Let not our colleges hestitate for a mo- ment in handling over-indulgence in strong love. Expulsion, or limitation to 14 of 2 per cent near-love! SOMEWHAT TANGLED YERAL ANDREWS, chief of en- G forcement, is said to be discouraged almost to the point of resigning. Upon his appointment, General An- drews proclaimed that the only way to en- force was to select division administra- tors from men who were “free from po- | litical entanglement.” It was really a fine vision, only in that it pictured men politically unentangled who would give up their private business, become heads of federal police forces and thus become entangled in political jobs. General An- drews had selected only a few unentangled republicans and many fewer unentangled democrats, when he found himself hotly reproved by U. S. senators and congress- men, whose function it is to vote him $80,000,000 or so, with which to wage the enforcement battle. General Andrews is in a delicate, not to say.discouraging situation. Bpssibly, he has a loophole in the appointment of aides from the long-enduring prohibition party, or the Anti-Saloon league. That would be something like wise old Solo- mon’s escape from his embarrassing sit- uation by deciding to divide the child. THE MEAN CRITICS HAT poor Prince of Wales! One of | his first questions is as to the latest jazz tune, and at once a flock of critics rises to question his vacation didoes and to demand that he give his attention to serious matters. It is unrefined brutali The poor boy has nothing ahead of him save a king- ship—a life empty of everything save dignity, parades and official gloom. For heaven’s sake, let Ed have a good time while he has the pep for it! ? ? Answers to Your Questions ? ? ISTEN here, man, are you of the clan tat bile? How do you drive?
