WARNS 1RAppERS THEY
MUST HAVE LICENSES
Game Warden King Also Explains
Rear Protected Now.

County Game Warden Ben d
King issues warning to local trap
pers to be careful and get a license
because the new game code now re-
quires license to trap any fur
bearing animbal. except predatory
animals for which bounties are OF
fered The licenses are SIS and are
good only in the county in which
issued. Some 20 have already been
taken out here, King reports.
The trapping law is conflicting in
some respects and Attorney f. n
Steele, chairman of the Thurstor
county game commission. asked the
attorney general for an opinion or
the license question. The attorney
general held it is necessary to have
a license.
Warden King also warns that it is
illegal to trap bears now. in view oI
the opinion recently given by the at
torney general that the bear is c
game animal and so protected by the
game laws. The animals for which
bounties are offered and which may
be trapped without a license are the
cougar. coyote. coon. wild cat an6
civet cat.

made Thursday by Fred Hudson, Sec
retary of the council, who wrote the
letter to the board referring to the
magazine, and Fred w. Stocking, sec.
retary of the school board, who re-
ceived it.
There was nothing whatever OBJ.
jectionable in Mr. Hudson's letter.
Mr.. Stocking said, "and the published
reports regarding it are entirely mis-.
leading. l wrote him upon receiving
it, acknowledging it in the usual way
and the board will consider it at its
next meeting"
The letter. written two weeks ago
on instructions of the Trades Council
concerned the use of "The Independ-
ent" as a current events magazine by
the pupils of the local schools. and
after citing one or two articles. re-
quested the board to consider whether
it was advisable to use the magazine
in view of it's attitude toward labor
organizations.
The hoard did receive a letter from
c. B. Young, former local union Of
fetal who is not now connected with
the Trades Council, in which. after
beating the air" considerably about
an article on the steel strike which
appeared in The Independent" he
threatened to head a movement to re

PRINTERS ASK BIG
INCREASE IN SCALE
DAY FOR OPERATORS, EF-
FECTIVE JANUARY 1.

Printers of Olympia submitted to
the prOprietors of the several local
printing Offices this week a proposal
for greatly increased scale of wages
to go into effect January 1st next.
The new scale corresponds to that re-
quested by printers employed on Ia
coma newspapers, which is now be-
ing arbitrated.
According to the new scale, limo
type operators and printers employed
on daily newspapers would receive
the same wages. 1925 for the dav
shift. $40 for the twilight" and
$10.75 for the dog watch" or early
morning shift. The day and twilight
shifts are Z " hours each.
Linotype operators employed in
weekly and job Offices would receive
that SCALE, but printers or "floormen"
would receive $3.50 or $1.0O an hour,
under this proposal.
The shops are now operating on a
scale of $6 per day, $3.50 for the twi-
light and 81 for the dog watch" for
all of their composing room employees,
though all of the linotype operators
are receiving more than the scale,
some of them as high as $3.50. which
is the scale now being paid in Ia
coma.
Though the proprietors have not
responded to the unions proposal, it.
it expected that the scale will be ad-
justed satisfactorily.
