The continued absence of snow
in the East has been most disap-
pointing to rubber footwear manu-
facturers. In our case we depend
on our local territories for at once"
business. These territories have
had no snow. Other sections of the
country, especially the Northwest,
have had certain amount of snow,
and in these sections we are now
booking considerable future business.
1t is further gratifying to note that
in the farming sections our statesmen
are getting some nice future bust
ness.
Indications are now that we can
start the plant on full-time basis
February IS, until further notice.
We can all hope that the last half
of February and the month of March
will provide the East with its share
of snow.

The Star glad to have this opportunity Of telling
Mr. Taylor and every other person in Seattle just
where it stands in regard to traffic accidents, the
traffic division, and Mr. Fuqua.
The Star doesn't who heads the traffic bureau!
II doesn't itself with inside politics in the

department or elsewhere.
What The Star wants are RESULTS!
Fifty persons lost their lives last year in Seattle
traffic mshaps. Hundreds Of machines were wrecked
and hundreds Of other lives were imperiled.
Speeding, drunken and reckless drivers increas-
ing, because of the axness of Seattle police in en-
forcing the laws. This year there will be far
than so victims unless enforcement is vigorously
frightened.
That's what Tie Star is fighting for an end to
lawessness.
If police make auto drivers live UP to the letter of
the law during the hours the traffic squad is on
duty, the drivers themselves thru habit would not
let down during the rest of the day.

TAPANESE IN Seattle are increasing five times
as fast as the whites, is the alarming informa-
ton contained in the blth-rate figures just given
out by the city health office for the year 1928
In other words, when the Japanese population
in Seattle has reached that point where it is one
fifth the white population, the number of Japa-
nese babies born in one year will be equal to the
number of white babies born in year.
Seattle at present has an estimated Jap popula-
ton of 9,125, taking the census ration of 25 per

cent Jap population at the last census For this
number of Japanese there were 606 births during
1923.
The white population deducting the Japs from
the estimated 100000 population Seattle now
has, would be 355, 1915. For this number of whites
there were 1863 births.
Compared in another way the Japanese popu-
lation which is but 25 per cent of the citys popu-
lation, produced approximately IL per cent of the
birth during the year.
