Conspicuous Absence
Marks State Officials
Governor Hart, Tis Said, Issued Fade
Away Injunction.

State officials are conspicuous by
their absence around the legislative
lobby this session. This, according
to old members of the legislature, is
the first time that state officials and
employees have not been seen actively
working among the state legislators
1t is said that Governor Hart, prior to
the convening of the session had all
state elective and appointive officers
in conferene and at that time the
rule to keep the officers away from
the legislators went into effect. The
only employees or officials in evidence
while the legislature is in session are
those called on business. Everyone
agrees that the whole situation is
better than it has been for many ses-
sions.

TRADES COUNCIL HEARS
TALK BY VISITING PAINTER

Olympia Trades Council, at the
regular meeting Wednesdaf evening,
concurred in resolutions forwarded
from the Los Angeles Central Labor
Council. The document set out the
action Of the local Merchants and
Manufacturer association in request
ing the resignation from that asso-
citation Of employers of labor who
countenanced the closed shop, and
suggested that union people should
be especially active in support OF man
ufacturers who recognized union
labor.
C. w. Hull, secretary of Northwest
Conference of Painters, addressed the
Council upon the merits of two bills
now before the legislature which are
sponsored by the Painters, one bill
being a scaffolding law and the other
measure prohibiting the placing
upon walls Of rooms successive coats
Of paper or kalsomine, the measure
declaring such practice highly unsan-
itary. The speaker also touched
upon the question of wage reductions
and argued that union men should
fight the attempt to create the I'M
preston that prices are declining.
the true facts being that the purport-
ed slump in living costs is myth.

Lucas Threatens to LnU0ke Apex
LaD Union Gap Gold Nine

"The mayor and city council of this
little town have taken it upon them
selves to hire a motorcycle cop for
the purpose of arresting motorists
exceeding their 20 mile per hour,
limit through their town." said Rep
resentative Lucas, ut is hard for
person to tell where the city limits
are for the town begins in the coun-
try and ends in the country, and un-
less there Is some kind of warn
ing placed in conspicuous place
motorists should not be arrested for
exceeding 20 miles an hour.
Representative Lucas is fighting
for the doing away of this speed
law unless the motorists are warned
sufficiently OF the oncoming danger
of being arrested by the local Union
Gap "cop."
Several legislators can vouch for
the unfairness in the Union Gap speed
laws having been forced to pay ex-
ordinate fines for exceeding the speed
limit.
