REED SUES
WINGATE FOR
DAMAGES

World: Reed Andrews filed suit fol
S11,304 damages against Mr.. and Mrs
Frank A. Wingate of Peshastin in the
Chelan county Superior court Wed.
nesday, June Z, alleging that that
amount is due him for injuries sus-
tanned on August 21, 1920, in an au-
tomobile accident for which he al
leges Mr.. Wingate is responsible.
The complaint charges that Win
gate invited Andrews into his auto
mobile at Leavenworth to drive him
to the Wingate farm near Peshastin
and that the defendant drove reck-
lessly at speed of 40 to so miles an
hour. The car crashed into a huge
rock at the side of the road and Reed
was hurled 25 feet, he complains.
He alleges that his right hip bone
was fractured and crushed; his pelvic
bone was fractured and crushed; his
bladder and other internal organs
lacerated, torn and ruptured; three
lower ribs broken and injuries caused
to muscles all over his body.
He deposes that he was at that
time employed by Wingate on his
farm. The accident took place, ac-
cording to the complaint, where some
public work was being done on the
road and a sign had been posted
warning drivers to slow down to 10
miles on hour.
Andrews alleges that he was in the
Leavenworth hospital six weeks, and
is permanently injured. His attor-
neys are Jones & Colvin of Seattle.

THE REPUBLICAN
STATE CONVENTION.

The Republican state convention,
held in Chehalis Saturday, adopted a
platform that favors the repeal of the
poll tax law now that the emergency
which it was called upon to meet has
passed. points the way for strength
ening and safeguarding the direct pri-
mary; calls attention to savings in the
cost Of government and outlines
economies planned to reduce taxes
opposes any plan of reapportionment
that will deprive any county of rep
resentation in the legislature; calls
for drastic efforts to stamp out the
narcotic evil and recommends re-
opening the Women's Industrial
Home and Clinic; endorses the anti
alien land law passed by the last
legislature; and in national affairs
pays a glowing tribute to President
Harding, points with pride to the
treaties negotiated by the national
government to insure World Peace
urges national constitutional
amendment to prohibit child labor;
endorses the new immigration laws;
urges speedy action on the tariff,
support of the Merchant Marine, i'm
mediate passage of the Smith Nc
Nary bill and the adoption Of the
Columbia River Basin project in the
form recommended by Gen. Goethals;
approves of past legislation and the
bonus for World War veterans and
demands a.reduction a. in national taxes.
The budget system in all tax-levying
units from road districts to the fed
eral government is favored together
with a provision making public Of
ficials charged with the expenditure
of public funds liable on their bonds
for exceeding their budgets.
Altogether. there were 80 planks in
the platform, some of them, though,
closely related to the same subject.
1t is pointed out the administrative
code can be extended to coordinate
more state functions and improve its
already remarkable record for effici-
ency and economy. New banking
legislation for the protection of de-
positors is pledged. Reforestation
begun under authority of the last
legislature, Is pledged upon an mex
pensive but effective plan that will
perpetuate Washington's Timber sup
ply and further aid to farmers mar
keting organizations is offered
Attendance at the convention was
unusually large. For instance King
county with an allotment of 1877 dele-
gates and Skamania with 8, the low
est number, both showed 100 per cent
| attendance.
Both the temporary chairman, Ray
Greenwood, prosecuting attorney OF
Kitsap county, and the permanent
chairman. Frank r. Jeffery, [. s
District Attorney. Of Spokane, are ex-
| service men. Enthusiasm of the dele
gates found expression in cheers fol
