SEATTLE, June 27.-The only
answer the commission merchants
of Seattle make today to the rap
idly increasing storm of protest
against the high price of fruits
and vegetables is to pass the re-
sponsibility on the producers.
The commission men were un-
mercifully flayed from the pulpit
Of the Presbyterian church by
Rev. George H. Lee. ~
''Let these produce dealers take
notice that an aroused public will
act until the conditions that look
more like brigandage than lawful
trading are removed; and let the
public officials attend to the pro-
lection of the people, rich and
poor" said Rev. Lee.
when the poor cry to God for
fruit and food necessary to them
and then when produce is Dump
ed into the bay to keep up
prices of that on hand, is not that
of the poor and oppo-
sition to God?"
The Stewards association has

New Haven road. It will save

in the city about 80 minutes every
day, or three hours a week, ~
hours a month"; total Of six days

The builders of the road are
confident, of success, and are al
ready planning to extend the mon
orail line about three miles west
to connect with a trolley line now
being built. An elevated mono
rail from the city hall, Manhat-
tan. TO City Island, making the
trip on a 15-minute schedule, or
less. is also part of the plan of
Bion Burrows, head of the mono
rail company.
If Tacoma and Seattle, about 40
miles distant, were connected with

Bishop Vincent believes in hav-
ing nice buildings in which to
worship. He doesn't think that a
congregation ought to be stingy
when it comes to building an edi-
flee for religious purposes, and
that includes the parsonage as
we'll. ANY Methodist congregation
wanting better church building
than they have can always rely
upon Bishop Vincent's help in
raising the money. And yet he
does not want them to go to the
other extreme and erect buildings
too costly for the pocketbooks of
that particular congregation.
Bishop Vincent is now rs, and
has been preaching or teaching
Methodism for So years, starting
when but 10 as a circuit rider. He
is known throughout the world as
the founder and promoter of the
Chautauqua assembly. He lives in
indianapolis, Ind.

He wants Pacific avenue extended
