CEATTLE is NOT going to repudiate
~ any lawful contracts or obliga-
tions!
This is positive!
Any contrary doctrine is plain boil
shevism-nothing more or less. No one
can encourage a principle so abhorrcnt
to orderly conduct unless he 10 either
radically red" or plumb insane!
The suit of the IA taxpayers" was
bound to fail. because il was based es-
sentially either on bolshevism or insan-
ity. Il sought to make. the city default
in payments Of interest on bonds that
had NEVER been declared illegal.
Those who engineered this suit, those
who inspired il, the councilmanic can
didates who encouraged il, must be re-
pudiatcd, because they are spreading
broadcast thru the country the belief
that Seattle is city of bolsheviks, city
which recognizes no legal obligations, a
city that is willing to 60 back on a legal
contract, a city that is seeking to repu-
diate its bonds!
THE ELECTION of councilmen, a
week from today, will be watched
with keen interest by responsible peo-
pie thruout the country.
Not because the city may repudiate
its obligations. There isn't chance on
earth for that The courts won't permit
it, and the people won't permit it, be-
cause neither this city nor this country
is bolshevik or insane!
But harm will be done, and is being
done, merely by the TALK of repudia-
ton.

and that is efficient management of
the street railway and efficient conduct
Of all city business.
Can Cotterill and Doyle give it, with
their multitude of theories and expert
mental propositions?
THE ONLY TWO MEN who have
! consistently been against taxing
the people to pay for the street car sys-
tern are Fitzgerald and Bolton.
Cotterill only recently proposed to
pay off considerable portion Of the
system by direct taxation.
Aye, even Carroll proposed, last De-
cember, to raise 81, 500, 900 by taxation
for this purpose. Carroll has since
changed his mind about that. He, too,
is now against taxation. He, too, now
takes the position that has always been
taken by Fitzgerald in this regard, and
by Bolton.
The Star accordingly recommends to
the voters the three candidates in
dorsed by the veterans of this city
Fitzgerald, Carroll and Bolton.
Elect them and defeat bolshevism
and insanity!
Elect them and give the city railway
the friends it needs to make it the sue
cess it ought to be and can be.
Elect them SO that the railway, which
is taking in enough money to make it
absolutely a self-paying proposition,
will have a square deal.
If you elect the other crowd, the rail-
way is likely to be worse managed than
it is. And the taxpayers will have to
pay!

are giving time. energy and money for

to me that it is only the application of
sound horse sense that our religious

methods as efficient as those of our
public schools. The tragedy Of the
churches is in their educational
system"
Colleges Are Harmful.
At this point Bishop Wise recited
circumstances where young men had

training for the ministry, but had lost
the vision of preparing for the work

ness? The real reason for this loose
ness is because fathers and mothers
have forgotten in large part their re-
sponsibilities as parents.
Demand Higher Standards
"One of the greatest things we have
to do is to establish in the minds OF
our boys and girls that marriage IS
different from the present accepted
conception. The only remedy for the
whole situation is for the home to re-
assert its power through motherhood
and fatherhood Are you dead sure
that when that young man looks into
the eyes of your daughter, as he Is
certain to do, and pledges bodily allie
glance, that he hasn't anything about
him which will bring shame and dis
grace into the home?
Have you parents the courage tc
demand as clean a body of that young
man as he demands of your daugh
ter? The challenge of America today
is for YOU to rebuild the sanctuaries
in the home, without which no nation
can endure We must lend ourselves
to the cleaning up of standards. Dress

SOVIET TRADE PACT
TEXT MADE PUBLIC;
PROPAGANDA BANNED

RIGA, June 16-Thc text Of the
trade agreement recently negotiated
between the German government and
the Russian Socialist Federative Soviet
Republic has been made public here.
Its provisions are significant in view
of the fact that this is one of a series
Of similar agreements already nego-
tiated or in process of negotiation
Between Russia and other nations,
such as Great Britain, Italy and
Czecho-Slovaka
The provisions may be of peculiar
interest TO the United States owing to
the attempt of the Russian government
10 effect a trade agreement with the
United States which resulted in mott
fcation by the American State Depart
ment 10 Russia that the Soviet govern
ment had no chance of recognition in
any form by the United States so long
as Americans were held prisoners in
Russia.
Must Restrain Aeitators.
One of the most interesting provis-
ions of the Russo-German agreement
is that the representatives of both
Germany and Russia are bound by it
10 refrain from every form of agita-
ton or propaganda against the govern
ment or the state institutions of the
country in which the delegation is
located
These delegations will be composed
under the new agreement, to missions
already existing for the purpose of
looking after the affairs of war prison
ers in both countries The scope of
The activities of these delegations is
extended so that they are authorized
10 protect the interests of citizens of
both Germany and Russia. The mem.
bership of the missions is increased
by attaching to them additional dele
gates, whose duties are to develop
economic relations.
