The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1921-04-26

The complaint questioned the cor
rectness of our claim that the OHIO Range
can be brought to baking heat eight min
utes from time when match is touched to
the kndling-and that, in fifteen minutes,
there. will be hot water for the bath.
Approached on the subject by the
Better Business Bureau, our Advertising
Bureau stated that this claim was made
only after careful tests, and that we were
ready to substantiate it. The manager OF
the Bureau then requested that special
demonstration be given him.
A stock OHIO Range was con-
nected up in room at the Store Garage
(no facilities for this being available at
the Store) and the demonstration given.
AS the report shows, the demonstration
entirely substantiated our claims
The complainant, whose identity
is unknown to Frederick & Nelson (all
complaints to the Bureau being held in
strict confidence), was then invited to wit
ness the demonstration for himself, with
such witnesses as he desired to bring with
him. The complainant, however, expressed
himself as ent irely satisfied with the
report of the Bureau, which we publish, in
fac-simile, herewith.

ARE WE GETTING IN
DUTCH?"
(By J. E. Jones)

Washington, Sept. 27.-Ever since
the Spanish American war we have
been holding out hopes of independence
Kinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson
Kinley, Rooseve1,, Taft andn Wilson
encouraged the Filipinos to ''get ready
for independence The Wilson Ad-
mil1istratio assumed that the time
had arrived for independence, and
gave to the Islands a degree Of self
government that made the Filipinos
AMIDST absolute in their affairs. But
President Wilson waited almost until
the last of his term before making
any specific appeal to Congress to
grant the Islands independence. The
and the practical effect was to "wish
the whole thing onto Mr.. Harding.'
The new President didn t like it, either
in this way; and that perhaps account
ed for the fact that one Of his earliest
acts In office was to create the Wood
Forbes Mission, which F'ilipinos will
doubtless assert has done its worst.
Undoubtedly the Filipinos, indepen-
dent of independence questions and all
other consi iderations, think that the
United States Government is rather
tickle in it's methods. There are
evidences that we are 'getting in
Dutch'' with our colonies.

to complete the dams, and the funds
expended for that purpose are to be
repaid to him. Should the cost Of con-
struction be twice the Ford estimate
the Government would have to pay,

has expressed doubt as to whether
Congress would stand by such an ar
rangement, especially if the engineers
for the Government should in the end
have the right estimates relating to
the excess Of costs over the Ford

FIRST HALF YEAR
(By U. 8. Press)

Washington, Sept. 27.-President
Harding has been in office half a wear
and most Of the people who have been
doing watchful waiting'' on his Ad-
are inclined to believe that
he has proved that he has the ability
to secure thorough cooperation among
the members Of his Administration.
At the very outset of his term it was
acknowledged that he had surrounded
himself with a very strong Cabinet.
Pessimists said that these strong men
would eventually prove to be a pack
of wild horses that would run away
with the Republican machine and
smash it. But there has been gen
eral revision of this opinion. It has
been made clear that the President is
able to secure close cooperation among
his advisors. and he has also proved
to be master Of masters in cementine
friendly understanding and in secur-
ing good "team work. Thus as the
first year passes the Harding star is
brilliant in the political armament

BUT, OF COURSE,
THERE'S IRELAND
(By j. e. Jones)

Washington, Sept. 27-Whatever
may be our attitude towards our
wards. we are always sure that g our
hearts are in the right place. We
want to do the right thing by them!
While we are denying independence
to the tolopinos, Congress is listening g
to appeals to help Ireland. The Irish
Committee whacks away at Congress
in big ads. in the Washington daily
newspapers, "The foremost principle
of our foreign policy has been that
every Nation has a right to exist -
reads the address, "and that no other
Nation may justly impair that right
on the ground of military or naval ex-
re9iencv.' And then, after a lone
and eloquent appeal, the "Gentlemen
of the Congress, are told finally
The peace Of the world is involved
IN the freedom of Ireland. For the
United States Ireland's struggle fol-
independence has become a domestic
question. The duty to deal with this
question still continues to confront
Ireland" There is a lot more to the
same effect. But there ism It much
evidence that official action will be
had in Washington on the Irish ques
ton. Our own problems with the
Philippines, Alaska, Hawaii, Panama
and the islands off the Florida coas'
are our more important responsibility

POPULATION BY
COLOR AND RACE
(By U. S. Press)

Washington, Sept. 27.-The Bureau
Of the Census has issued a statement
giving revised figures for the compost
tlon of the population o. the United
States according to color or race, as
shown by the cenesus taken as of
January l: 1921
The total population of the United
States, 105,71O,62O, comprises 94,S2O,-
9l5 white persons, 1O,463,131 Negroes,
244,437 Indians, 1,O1O Japanese, 61,-
639 Chinese, 5,6O3 Filipinos, 2,5o7
Hindus, 1924 Koreans, and 154 9TH
ers (Siamese, Hawaiians, Malays, Ma
oris, and Samoans). The rates of in
crease Tor the principal races during
&c decade were: Total population,
t4.9 per cent; white, 16 per cent; Ne
gro, 6. Ter cent; Japanese, 53.S per
cent. The Indian population decreased
by so per cent and the Chinese pop
ulation by 1873 per cent.
The rate of increase in the white
population during the recent decade,
16 percent, is considerably less than
the corresponding rate for the period
190O-191O, which was 22.5 per cent
This decline is accounted for mainly
by the great reduction in the volume
Of immigration during the period of the
World War. An estimate based on
the excess of births over deaths and
on the excess Of immigration over emf
grafton yields a total differing by on.
| ly fraction Of l per cent from the
total white population enumerated.
The rate Of increase in the Negro
population, which is not perceptibly
affected by immigration or emigration,
! is by far the lowest on record. Such
data as are available in regard to
birth and death rates among the Ne
! groes indicate that the birth rate has
decreased considerably since 1900,
while the death rate has not changed
greatly.
