The Unequal Combat

DHYs1CAL man can stand much more than
the mind OF man. In the trenches, un-
der fire, war is not SO terrible as In the
psychic house of him who directly or in
directly may be connected with it's causes.
How many men have gone crazy under the
strain. nobody knows. We hear only of the
conspicuous cases. Such, for instance, as
that of Prince Ernst August, Duke of Cum
berland, and father of the Duke of Bruins
wick, son-in-law of the Kaiser. Disappearing
from his regiment. the prince has been found
in the woods raving, reason unseated by the
horrors of war.
There will be universal sympathy. OF
course; common humanity insures that much.
But, prince and friends of the prince--most
excellent rulers OF men. Kaiser Gear. Kings
and President---how ,.bout the mother and
the wife. the fleeing babes, the homeless wan
derers driven north before the invasion of
armed troops? How about their psychic
houses? How about the temples Of their
souls? 1t is an unequal combat this assault
Of horror upon the mind, but how much more
unequal, how hopelessly overwhelming is the
assault of nations upon homes?

NEEDED LEGISLATION
Here are some of the funda-
mentals L believe should be estab-

PEOPLES RIGHT TO INITIATE
AMENDMENTS TO CONSTI-
TUITION
The Constitution of our State
is the creation of the people. The
people adapted ii by their vote,
and only by their vote can ii be
amended. Why should they not
have the right to initiate any
amendments If they so desire?
Don't you want to have the
right to petition for an amend
ment to the Constitution IL you
should think a change necessary
for good government and the peo-
pies rule? L do.
RECALL OF JUDGES
We have the right of recall of
all elected officers, except judges,
to be used only when Good Gov
eminent requires il. Don't you
think Bad Judges should also be
recalled il Good Government re-
quires it? ] do.
COURT SHOULD NOT SET
ASIDE PEOPLES LAW
The Initiative and Referendum
Amendment to our Constitution
created all the people of our state
n legislative body and the initia-
tive measures you are voting up
on are entitled:
BE IL Enacted by the People
of the State of Washington"
Under our present Constitution a
court can set aside a law enact
ed by the people on the ground of
unconstitutionality. Do you think
that should be? j don't.
j want submitted to the people
for their consideration an
amendment prohibiting any court
from setting aside any law enact
ed by the People.
RELIEF TO HOME BUILDERS
We are demanding the develop
ment of our State by clearing
Logged-off-Iands and making
farms and homes, yet, under our
tax system as provided in our
State Constitution we penalize
the people when they clear the
land and turn it into fields and
orchards by increasing their
taxes. Don't you think they have
a hard enough time of it without
this burden? We can tighten this
burden by amending our Constitu-
tiOn so as to exempt all homes
and like improvements ON land
from taxation. ! want to have
the next Legislature submit this
amendment to the people for
their consideration.
