TAXPAYERS COMMITTEE
OPPOSES 1910 PLAN.

The Committee of the County Tax
payers Organization, after carefully
considering the matter, recommends TO
the voters of Okanogan county the re-
lection of the tax measure appearing
on the ballot as Initiative No. 49," and
known as the 1910 school plan. Vote

The State Superintendent says that
this measure should be rejected by the

The state has but recently doubled
the levy for school purposes. Last
year 97.7 per cent of the children OF
the state had 8 months or more OF
school, and less than one third Of the
percent received less than six months
We believe that the entire admins
trative provisions Of the school code
snould be revised, but consider the
present measure i'll advised and moi
necessary at this time, and that il
should not be adopted.

HOLD MISTAKEN
Harding's Position Enhances
Unpopularity With Both
Labor and Capital.
GROUPS MAINTAIN FIRM
Possibility Looms Bold. That
Situation May Grow More
Serious Later.
By n. D. COCHRAN,


WASHINGTON, Aug. 1S.-No Pres
ident ever tackled a tougher job Of
peace making than President Harding
tackled when he tried to bring peace
in the railroad war. So far he is
about as popular with both sides as
the man who tried to make peace be-
tween man and wife and got well
damned by both for his efforts.
The trouble lies deeper than the
matter Of wages or the question Of the
seniority rights Of strikers. Two sig
nifcant facts developed during Presi-
dent Harding's peace negotiations.
One was the complete solidarity Of the
railroad unions the other was the di-
vision in the ranks of railroad ex-
ecutives. which resulted in majority
and minority reports in reply to the
Presidents last proposition, with re-
luctant acquiescence on the part Of
the minority executives who evidently
want fight to a finish.
The solidarity Of all the railroad
unions. including for the first time the
four conservative brotherhoods. grows
out of the belief on the part Of all
labor leaders that the banker group
in control of railroad labor policy was
out to break the unions. These lead
ers believed the game was 10 smash
first the shopmen and then smash the
other unions in detail, finishing the
job with the four brotherhoods. They
feel that trades unionism has It's back
to the wall and IS fighting for its very

LONDON. Aug. 18.-Slnging their
way back to health-by that strange
process thousands Of wounded Brit
ish war veterans are regaining peace
Of mind and strength of body.
Among the most difficult Of the
rOst-war casualty cases were the ex-
oldiers, who, either by severity Of
ounds or suddenness Of shock, lost
most complete control Of their
.erves. The cases required excep-
onal treatment.
The Kings Service Choirs were or

most conspicuous victims of nervous

accomplished the rest. Individual
and class training in singing, speak
ng and breathing has restored to the
.fiicted men their lost powers Of
speech, self confidence and a revived
form Of mental and physical action.
BY vocal therapy stammering lips
have become articulate, imperfect
breathing has been corrected, faulty
memory strengthened and depression
swept away.
Restoring Memory
Men whose memory has left them.
whose speech was hating, who
walked unsteadily, have been re
stored to normal condition through
the exercise and confidence they re-
ceived from exercising their vocal
organs in a singing class. Men have
been given their old soundness after
Affections in which they were sub
ject TO various forms Of hysteria and
brain paralysis-sub-norna weak
nesses which forced them to stop va
cantly in the middle Of word,
breaking out IT a childish laugh.
The influence Of music has even
given back to war heroes their for
gotten ability to read and spell.
Training of these war-shocked men
has shown that modern syncopation,
whatever its achievements on the
dance floor, Is lacking in curative
quality. Syncopated music tends to
keep the men unsettled. They pre-
fer the old-fashioned songs with
regular rhythm. They are more sat
isfving. lend more confidence from
their steady swing than the disturb

III criticism Us ia order. here's one
for your estimable sheet. / am a

am usually interested and amused
one objection l have is this: too
many Of the excerpts from life seem
TO lack originality. Some OF them

vampcd jokes which have gone the
round and come back for a rest,
which they deserve.
Another fault which note is a
tendency to libel public institutions
individuals and interests. Il was my
opinion tho column was intended
