Chamber of Commerce Adopts Re-

Tuesday, touching the various phases
of the enterprise, and the unanimous

public sentiment, essential to the
successful elimination of the plans
is solidly behind the project. The
committee, which includes DR.. F. F.
Nader, Judge Thos. Neill, Rev. C
n. Curtis, George H. Cannon and f
T. Barnard, made a complete investi-
cation, and the report covers every
phase of the situation. The commit

as possible

CITIZENS TAKE STEPS TO
PROv|DEF|RE EQUIPMENT
Would Purchase Chemical Engine by
Subscription and Rent to City
Until Funds Are Available

A proposal to the city council to
purchase adequate fire equipment at
once with funds to be raised by SUBJ
scrlptlon, and to rent the equipment
to the city until next year, when pro-
vision for its purchase will be made
in the municipal budget, will be
made to the city council by a cham
Der of commerce committee as re-
suit of full discussion of the sit
uation at the chamber of commerce
meeting Tuesday, Attention was
called to the fact that the fire fight
ing equipment is entirely inadequate,
being confined to two or three hose
carts with hose, and sentiment of
the 60 business men present at the
Tuesday luncheon was unanimous in
favor of immediate action toward
securing chemical and other equip
ment.
The two recent heavy fire losses
to realization of the entire made
quacy of the city's equipment, and
the immediate expenditure of enough
money to insure protection in case
of fire here is demanded.
The committee named today in
cludes Lee Allen, DR.. E. E. Wegner
and H. L. Hathaway. These men
the council the approximate amount
of money necessary to purchase full
equipment and to report at the cham
Der of commerce meeting next Tues
day, when final action will be taken.
On previous occasions the city
council has made tentative provision
in its annual budget for fire equip
ment but in each case urgent de-
mands for funds for other purposes
have caused the changing of the bud
get before it's adoption and the elimi-
nation of the item for fire equip
ment.
The city administration realizes
that the fire protection is inadequate
and the councilmen have expressed
desire and an intention of making
provision for chemical engine and
other apparatus in the budget for
next year. The plan suggested at
J the chamber meeting is expected to
solve the problem until such time as
city funds are available, when title
to the equipment will be transferred
to the city

REPUBLICANS ORGANIZE
TO BOOST THE PARTY
Representative Frank II. Sanger
Named President, William NJ.
Porter Secretary--WillM Meet
Twice Each Month

To foster the interests of the re-
publican party and the county, state
and national G. O. p. candidates,
the Republican Club of Pullman
and Vicinity was organized here
Wednesday night. F. e. Sanger, a
member of the last state legislature,
was elected president, while Mrs.
Make Morse was named vice presi-
dent and William NJ. Porter is sec
rotary and treasurer. Meetings of
the new club will be held the second
and fourth Tuesday evenings of each
week at the chamber of commerce
rooms in the city hall, and at each
meeting republican candidates will
be invited to address the members
The opening gun of the local repub-
lican campaign was fired Wednesday
by John A. Gellatly, of Wenatchee,
republican candidate for governor,
who addressed the club at it's organ
ization meeting and gave the mem
bers a number of pertinent sugges-
tions for successful campaign in
the interests of the party.
A committee was named, with the
president and secretary as members,
to serve as a reception committee
for all republican candidates who
come to Pullman. This committee
will introduce the candidate to the
voters and make arrangements for
public meeting if desired. Advance
arrangements may be made through

LINGG UNDER BOND
TO KEEP THE PEACE

Joe Lingg, farmer northwest of
Pullman, who was last week charged
with displaying a weapon in his ell
deayor to keep a party of surveyors
from crossing his premises, was
taken in charge by the sheriff's Of
flee and released pending his hear
ing under a $500 peace bond fur
nished by J. K. Smawley and Wal
ter Savage. Lingg is said to claim
that he did not know that the sur
veyors had orders from the county
commissioners to make the survey
and is alleged to have expressed re-
greet at his hasty action. The survey
was completed the day after the irate
farmer is alleged to have held the
party up with a gun.

OPEN FRANKLIN SCHOOL
IF OCCASION DEMANDS
Parents Favor Methodist Hill School
in Preference to Housing Stu
dents on Third Floor Main
Building

The sentiment of the parents of
the children who will be in the fifth
and sixth grades next year is in favor
of reopening the Franklin building
on Methodist hill in preference to
adopting the other alternative of
completing the third floor of the
Main building and using that for the
pupils of those grades who would be
effected. A conference of the par
ents with the members of the school
board was held last Friday evening,
when various problems which con-
front the directors were discussed.
The big majority of the parents
favored the reopening of the Frank
lin school if conditions demand, and
unless it is found that the increased
enrolment can be taken care of sat
isfactorily under the present system,
this plan will be followed by the
board of directors
The question of providing hot soup
to supplement the lunches brought
by children who would attend the
Franklin school was also discussed
and favored by many of the parents.
The school board is still working
on the problem and hopes ultimately
to find a solution which will require
neither the reopening of the Frank
lin building nor the housing of GER
tain grades on the third floor of the
Main building.

GIVES PROMISE OF SUCCESS

quarters for the farmers and resi-
dents of the agricultural area sur
rounding Pullman, on which the city
largely depends for it's life and pros
perity. This city is the center of a
splendid farming district It's loca-
ton, both from the standpoint of
tion is such that the farming popula-
ton comes to Pullman frequently
and in large numbers. When they
do, except for the transaction of bus
mess, many of them have nowhere
to go Certainly they have no place
in which to gather for their own
good and in their own interests The
need for such place is perhaps par
| ttcularly emphatic during bad
weather in the late fall, winter and
spring months. A suitable center
which would provide rest rooms for
the farmers and their wives, meet
ing places for all residents of the
community, and a reading room for
all, especially the floating labor ele-
ment, is highly desirable. Our farm
er neighbors are doing more for Pull
man than Pullman is doing for them.
A right move in this respect would
render a valuable community service
and secure the hearty cooperation of
the farmers.
CD AS a health center. Pull
man recognizes that it is coming to
need the service of preventive medi-
cine. During the past winter we
have had the assistance of com
munity nurse. We should have such
a person as regular community Of
ficer. In order for such a nurse to
do her work we'll it is necessary for
her to have headquarters. Those
headquarters should be central and
convenient The best place for them
is in a community center. On the
constructive side of health work
there is need in Pullman for a gym
nasium, a large indoor swimming
tank and other equipment that
would contribute to the physical
well being of our people, perhaps
particularly the young people. We
submit that a complete and we'll es-
tablished equipment along this line
would contribute much to the well
fare and reputation Of the city. The
success of the city swimming tank,
and our park with it's little play
ground equipment has been marked
We need something more of this type
which can be used durin- inclement
winter.

ORMSBEE, W.S.C. GRAD,
IN BADAT WALLA WALLA
Nonpartizan League Organizer Al
legged to Have Stated That Gem
tralia Shootings Were
Justified

Eugene r. Ormsbee, a 1916 grad
uate from the State College, is in
bad with the eX-service men of the
state because OF alleged remarks at
Walla Walla in which he is claimed
to have stated that the shooting of
the American Legion men at Cen
tralia by members of the L. w. w.
organization was justified. Orms-
bee is said to be an organizer for
the nonpartizan league The al
legged remarks derogatory to the
service mems organization were
made, it is claimed, to Fisk Williams,
and soon afterward a gang of some
LOG men, most of them ex-service
men, had gathered at the hotel where
Ormsbee was stopping and made an
ah-night search for the n3npartizan
Lacquer. Early III the morning the
crowd gave up the search and dis
persed and it is alleged that Ormsbee
left the hotel soon afterward and
made safe getaway to the Eureka
flat country
Indignation among the ex-service
men is at high ebb in the Walla
Nalla country and Ormsbee will
probably steer clear of the peniten-
t:lry city Tor some time TO come.
Soon after graduation here Orms-
bee, who halted from Waitsburg,
took a position as instructor in the
Walla Walla high school. Later he
was elected to the faculty of Mon
tana University, at Missoula. 1t is
said that he contemplated spending
the summer on a lecture trip for the
nonpartizan league.
Ormsbee Denies Statement
Walla Walla, Wash, July 49,
b. r. Ormsbee, nonpartizan league
organizer, whose departure from
Walla Walla was suggested" by
delegation of ex-service men, in a
letter written on Occur 'Alene hotel
stationery, Spokane, denies he made
the alleged statement that he be-
lieved the l. w. w. were right in
shooting down American Legion men.
The letter which was received by the
Union today says in part
I'm response to questions in pri-
vate conversation | stated it as my
belief that |. w. w. as much as most
depraved criminals are entitled un-
der spirit of our law to fair trial;
that | thought they did not get such
fair trial at Centralia nor at other
places and that in Centralia they shot
in self-defense as evidenced by testi-
mony of man hostile to them-Dr.
Frank Bckford | further stated
that | believed the l. w. W. wrong
in what they are striving for and
wrong in the way they are striving
and that | do not believe in use of
force to effect political or industrial
changes in our country"
He also said bolshevists are not
as black as they are painted. He
said this country has the best gov
ernment in the world today. Service
men say they do not believe it adj
visable for Ormsbee to return here.
