OF course, we want an adequate water

to cut out waste. We want an Al sani-
tary system
And we're going to accomplish all those
things-but give us a couple of minutes
TO do them in.
We're just bright young sprig of a

Mrs. La Toilette Declines

T>HE La Folettes of Wisconsin insist
upon being different. They decline
TO take the easy and obvious ways.
Mrs Robert NJ La Toilette, widow of
the great progressive leader has formally
refused to be a candidate for the office
vacated by his death. According to all
reports from Wisconsin, this amounts to
a refusal to be the first woman elected to
the United States senate. She could be
elected, it appears
Al a time when the country has become
accustomed TO the election of widows to
fill out husbands terms, including COVER
norships and the lower house Of congress,
Mrs. La Toilette sets herself apart. 1t
is not that she is not interested in poll
ties and the affairs of government. Her
whole life, since her graduation from law
school, has been spent in public affairs.
And her idea OF public office is that of
a place of public service. place for work
hard and often unhappy work-not
place of idle honor Mrs. La Toilette is
no longer youngt she has other work Of
her husbands to complete, his very inn
portant memoirs to prepare. She regards
the successful accomplishment of this as
of more Importance than all she might be
able to do in few years in the senate.
Women of the country who had hoped
she might use this opportunity to break
the precedent against election of women
to the senate will be disappointed, no
doubt, but they will admit the courage OF
the course she has chosen and the clear
thinking that lies behind it.

You and the Philippines

CEATTLEITES, especially those who
~ own automobiles, should be interested
in the fate of the Philippines.
Now government experts tell MS that
there are 100000 acres of A-No. rub
Der land in the southern part of the Phil
ippines The worlds present supply is
grown on less than 100000 acres, so,
hnder proper conditions, there is no sound
reason why we cannot arrange to grow all
our own tires for years TO come.
Then why don't we do 1t? The answer
Us IL takes money 10 start a rubber planta-
tion and nobody wants TO risk money in
n country whose future is Shrouded in
mystery and doubt,
With what amounts to a monopoly on
rubber. Great Britain now controls the
price. A few weeks ago American tire
makers were paying well under 20 cents
On pound. Now they pay around 81,
As the United States uses three-fourths
the total output, or just under 100000
900 pounds year, the difference between
what we ought to pay and what the Brit
ish make us pay amounts to more than
S500,000.000. It's new tax they make
us pay to ride in our own car.
If the Philippines 100000 acres pro-
duced rubber, Seattle, as a port, would be
the entry point for millions of pounds of
il. More business for us
But until those 100000 acres are
planted and producing. they won't do Seat
tie bit of good-and Wen keep on pay
ing toll to the British for rubber
Today nobody can say what the Philip
pines will be tomorrow. They may be
absolutely free; or an American depend
ency; or possessed of Cuban status: or
serving out 20 or 30-year period wait
ling to decide their future by plebiscite.
Or they may be free. like Belgium. under
international guarantees. Or something
altogether different
Now, nobody knows. And until the stat
us of the islands is fixed, business is bound
to be dull and big money will not go there.
Money will flow into any country with
definite future, however bad. for it can
. discount conditions. But it freezes up
solid when it has no way of forecasting
what may happen.
Congress should act 1t is not fair to
the Filipinos nor to Americans out there
nor to us here in the States, to keep us
all dangling
The question concerns every American
Even if we don't care hang for the moral
side of our promise to free the Philip
pines, we still have our pocketbooks to
consider
Sergio Osmena, brilliant Filipino leader,
is now on his way to Washington to stir
up congress. We wish him luck.
