Make It mt. Tacoma. /"
10 the Editor Of TIE Star:

10 the Editor Of The Star:
Under date Of June q letter ap-
peared in The Star over the sigma
ture Of Harriet E. Chace advocating
changing the name Of Mt. Rainier in
the state Of Washington, to Mt. Lin
coin.
While commencing the suggestion
as being most laudable I would like
to correct q statement which may
give a wrong impression to the east
ern people. She states that Mt. Ia
koma (presumably meaning Tacoma)
was suggested, but that the name did
be localiziag the name.
It is true that the city Of Tacoma
is in close proximity, but that is not
the reason this name was suggested,
but the idea was to perpetuate the
old Indian name of Ia Homa- Ia
and Homa means mountain. and they
so called this mountain from ages
immemorable Ta-Homa. The III is
pronounced with q very hard sound
and the nearest to it in our language
would be Tacoma.
The mountain was called Rainier
after an English admiral. who never
saw the mountain being born in
England can safely say without being
accused of Jingoism that the Indian
name is the correct name for this
beautiful mountain and should not
be called after an English admiral.
The city of Tacoma does not need
that sort Of advertising to bring her
self prominently before the public.
because I venture to state that it is
still fresh in the minds Of the people
Of this country from one end to the
other how Tacoma, led by their great
lodge of Elks bonded herself in
the amount OF i've million dollars to
present to our government the rmy
post at Camp Lewis, Wash, declared
BY military experts to be one Of the
finest in the country.
There is . movement on foot at
the present time to portion part of
the states of Washington, Idaho and
Montana, make q separate state and
call this state Lincoln, so I say let
us call the mountain by the name
it has been known for thousands of
years, Tacoma" H STRINGER.

GUNS TO PROTECT
BUILDERS Of ROAD

War clouds hovered over Glen Echo
Heights yesterday. and the zero
hour for going over was expected to
arrive today when citizens were to
stand as armed guards over road
builders in improving a highway from
Conduit road to the heights properties
to protect them against Deputy
Sheriff Franklin T. Boswell, who, it ia
full methods if the residents tried to
carry out their road-building plans.
The Staid, but firm, hand of law
reached in and opened a clearing in
the dark clouds. carrying several of
the principals into the Rockville, Nd,
police court.
This is what cleared them up:
Deputy Sheriff Franklin T. Boswell
Of Glen Echo, who is alleged to have
threatened to shoot any one who at
tempted to build the road. appeared
in court and gave bonds of 500 on
each of five peace warrants, to keep
the peace for five months.
Charged With Assault.
James G. Morris of Glen Echo ap-
peared at the court and swore out a
warrant for Clarence Sands. whom he
charged with assault and battery.
Sands answered the warrant today
and gave a bond of $50e pending his
trial Thursday.
walter D. Dresser. president of the
Glen Echo Heights Citizens Associa-
ton. said that. following advice Of
counsel. work of starting improve
ment of the road will not begin until
the first Of next week.
The war between the deputy sheriff. on
one side. and the citizens who threat
ened to arm themselves, on the other,
has been called OF for today.
A number OF residents OF the sec
tion, according to the version given
by Mr. Dresser, did not have good
roadway to reach Conduit road and
decided to improve it AS it was to
run past the door of Boswelrs house
he protested, whereupon the citfzen3
association had the right of way sur
veyed by the county surveyor, who.
it is said, reported that Boswells s
property was on the right of way.
Boswell. it is said. claimed that he
bought tie property.
Peace Warrants Sworn Ont.
Last night. following publication
been brewing for a few weeks. Sands.
it is said. walked up on the porch Of
Morris, waving the newspaper in his
hands, and struck the latter, q fight
drawing a large crowd
from the community.
Following the alleged threat Of
Deputy Sheriff Boswell that he would
shoot up any one who tried to build
the road. Walter D. Dresser. James G.
Morris. Lewis J. Bender. Alpheus Lent
and Earl E. Frederick swore out peace
warrants against the official. These
were served last night by Constable
Clarence Anders and were answered
in the court today. Boswell and his
wife were allowed to go as security.

Service Men, Unanimously
Passed by House.

The Sweet bill. consolidating the
agencies of relief of service men, was
passed by the HOUSE late yesterday by
the unanimous vote of 3S5 to 0. This

ure was approved practically as 1t was
reported from committee.
yeterans' Bureau Created.
Provision is made in the bill for
creation of a veterans bureau in the
Treasury Department. in which would
be placed the war risk insurance bu-
reau, the federal board for vocational
education and functions OF the public
health service relating to war veterans.
Fourteen regional offices would be
created for expenditious handling OF

director of the new bureau would
have power to determine the extent
of authority OF regional branches to
make final settlement of claims
Provision is made for establish
ment of 40 offices at which war vet
erans could apply for relief. These
would replace 1877 soldier relief bu-
reaus now maintained by the gov
ernment throughout the country. The
location of the new Offices would be
determined by the director Of the
veterans bureau.
Aholishes Subomces.
An amendment was added to the bill

MINORITY z|ON|STS
DECIDE TO MEET

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. June ia mass con-
ference of the minority group Of the
Zionist Organization Of America will
be held July 2 or 4. either in Pitts
burgh or Buffalo. This was decided
at a meeting Of q committee of the
with Supreme Court Justice Brandeis,
former honorary president Of the
Zionist Organization.
After hearing the views expressed
by Justice Brandeis, Judge Julian W.
Mack. and others. it was agreed that
group toward the new Zionist ad-
ministration was concerned there
shall be no active antagonism. but it
was decided that no member OF the
minority group shall accept an elec-
ton as delegate to the forthcoming
September.
VIII Draft Statement.
A committee Of the minority group
will draft a statsment to be printed
in several languages and presented to
all the delegates at the Carlsbad con-
vention. 1t will include the reason
why Justice Brandeis. Judge Mack.
Rabbi Wise and others o fthe mi
nority group do not find it advisable
to attend the Carlsbad convention.
It is probable that the minority
group will resolve itself into an in
dependent organization, to be called
the Palestine Development Associa-
tion, although the members will re-
tain their individual afiliatione with
the Zionist movement. Justice Bran
deis stated that it might be found
practicable to launch a. series Of
wholesale cooperative enterprises in
Palestine, completely segregated from
any activities undertaken now or In
the future by the Zionist commission.

No Sinners to Save.

Berwick, Pa. has new idea" man. His
name is Squire Frank Fenstermacher. Fen
stermacher is believer in blue laws, it seems,
and. not satisfied with the church as 1t is, he
proposes to build ono and to conduct it along
lines which he believes will be fitting
Tho squire proposes to "hand-pick" his
congregation, because he has announced that
when his church is built he will so restrict
the congregation that very small edifice will
house it. Fenstermacher says that person
who uses tobacco in any form cannot belong
to his church Nor can anyone attend serv-
ices there who uses any drink stronger than
water. The person who reads the Sunday
newspaper is to be barred. And anybody who
has ever attended movie show is to get
the gate before he reaches the door. As for
dancers and card players. they are forever
barred. In fact, it looks as if the congre-
cation will be a rather exclusive crowd.
Squire Fenstermacher will take up no col
lection. and Of course, with the restrictions
laio down. it would be hard to assemble a
choir, SO that will not be attempted. And
there will be no minister. Squire Frank will
merely teach the bible. While the rules may
bar many, the squire says that a warm well
come will be given all who can qualify. 1t is
too much like carrying coal to Newcastle to
hope that church for the good only will
long endure. The very foundation stone OF a
church should be in saving the sinners, and
how. pray. is church to preach the gospel
Of sinless life when sinners are to be barred
from hearing the preacher?
