Why Not Give Him
An Expense Account?

But the problem of choosing am
bassadors for their talents rather
than for their wealth is not vet
solved. What boots it to give man
house to live in, rent free, if it is
a house that can not be operated for
less than several times the salary?
The present salary, just as sala-
ry, may be high enough. But If the
recipient of it is condemned to live
in a house that the salary will not
run, he needs an expense allowance
adequate to, the house.
We do that for the president, be-
cause we understand the situation.
We do not do it for ambassadors, be
cause congressman think their coz,

OTHER DAYS IN AMERICUS

When an elderly gentleman with
flowing locks and whiskers, accom-
panied by pretty daughter of six
teen, walked up to Deputy Sheriff
Gatewood, yesterday and asked per-
mission to enter the county+jail, that
handsome bachelor official was q
bit nonplused. The elder party ex-
planned that he lived in a distant
county and had brought his daugh-
ter to town to see the sights.
A very delightful occasion of the
past week was reception rendered
by Miss Carrie Speer to her Sunday
school class Thursday evening at her
residence on Church street.

Way Marriage Often
Causes Hatred

If you are shut up with the same
person long enough, in relative iso-
lation from others, you come final
" either to love or to hate him. In
difference is out of the question.
That is the reason why only love
sanctifies marriage. 1t is the reason
why Explorer Macmillan enjoins
silence on his companions. If they
let each other alone, they can en-
dure each other through the long
isolation. If they try to be inti-
mates, they will first bore and then
hate each other.
Few of us have to face the ordeal
of Arctic silence, but most of US
are, or will be, married.
Moral: First, love your wife. See
ond. have each Of you enough out
side interests not to bore each 9th
err into loathing.

NATURALIST WRITES HARTLEY
| URGING GAME PROTECTION


NEW YORk.-In an effort to avert
threatened extinction of Americas
wild ducks and other game birds, DR..
William T. Hornaday, noted naturalist
and director Of the New York zoologi-
cal park, has sent to Governor Roland
H. Hartley at Olympia, Wash, letter
urging the passage of bill making
large reductions in bag limits and
open seasons on all game in this state.
1--WE must change our present
wasteful methods in shooting wild
fowl and upland game BIRDS" DR..
Hornaday said, COR another 10 years
will see our wild ducks at the point
of extinction as far as the sportsman
is concerned. Not that the birds will
all be killed, but unless we reduce ex-
cessive bag limits and cut down open
seasons, the birds will be so decimat-
ed and scattered that free shooting
will be at an end.
Game Is In Danger
"In the same conservation of the
killable game of your state" DR..
Hornaday's letter to the governor
says, your leadership is now urgent
ly needed. The migratory and non
game Of our nation-and of
every state, without one single excep-
tion-now is about to be smothered
and blotted out by overwhelming
grand armies Of hunters, automobiles,
machine guns, natural enemies and
drainage industrials. This you I'M
doubtedly know already.
"The answer to this deadly situa-
ton is: ~ big reductions in bag
limits and open seasons; (2) much
more effective law enforcement; 60
more sanctuaries, and az systematic
and widespread feeding Of game.
1.-The first demand is for sweeping
reductions in killing privileges, be-
cause thereby we can get the quick
est and most far-reaching results. The
three remedies cannot come otherwise
than slowly!
your state now kills 20 ducks per
day, which should be Is or less. OF
your other bag limits on birds, par
ticularly geese, grouse, snipe, several
are destructiyely high, and l hope
they will now be courageously re-
iuced.
"In behalf of the sane and reason
able conservation of game and sport,
beg you to take the lead in your
state in securing at once, in your
legislature, the passage of bill max
ing large reductions in bag limits and
open seasons on all the game of your
state"
Prominent Men On List
DR.. Hornaday is chairman Of the
Permanent Wild Life Protection
Fund, whose purpose is the protection
Of all wild game. Prominent among
its supporters are George Eastman,
Henry Ford, John D. Archbold, George
F. Baker, George D. Pratt and many
other well-known men and women.
The organization was founded by Mrs.
Russell Sage, Andrew Carnegie and
others.
1t is making a special drive for
laws in the various states-especial-
ly those where wild ducks feed in the
winter-which shall reduce bag limits
and open seasons. The funds spon-
sors are also interested In the estab-
lishment of game sanctuaries.

SENATORS SEEK HARMONY
RULE AT SPECIAL SESSIONS

RULE AT SPECIAL SESSIONS
Peace and harmony may reign IN
the senate for the special session to
be called by Governor Hartley.
Senator Robert Grass of King,
who has been aligned with the Con.
ner anttorganization forces, introduced
a resolution in the upper house today
calling for "gentlemen's agreemsnt"
to pass concurrent resolution at the
special session retaining the present
standing committees and Senator T..
]. Cleary as president pro tenn.
Two days ago, the organization
forces claimed a majority Of the sena.
tors and signed round robin" to
hold their control intact for the spe-
cial session and this similar move
supposedly from the other side, came
as surprise.
The Grass resolution also provides
that all bills, resolutions and me-
MORALS introduced but not acted
upon at this session be considered in
troduced and in committee at the spe-
cial session.
The legality Of such proposal has
been brought into question, but Grass
explained it would be merely an
agreement to hold good in the interim
until concurrent resolution to that
effect can be introduced at the spe-
cial session, and declared 1t would re.
suit in great saving OF time.

Charles A. Saunders, the Seattle
architect, whose legislative activities
have kept the reforestation agitation
alive in the legislature and who seems
likely by the time the special session
convenes next fall to have complete
program ready for acceptance, has
been plugging along consistently to
save or perpetuate, the nations tim
Der supply for something like %
years. AS far back as 1896 he tried to
interest congress in the idea of per-
petuating the nations timber supply.
He did not get hearing and tried 1t
again two years later, with similar
rebuffs.
For long time after his early fail
ures Mr.. Saunders gave up the notion
of ever interesting anybody in the
possibility of perpetuating a timber
supply. But of recent years when the
subject has been revived he has been
active in every movement that gave
serious consideration to the problem.
Representative Saunders has no pet
theory of his own to insist upon; he
wants results, and he is willing q
accept any little help that means
just another little bit gained. He
never has had any personal interest
in the problem and always has carried
on his crusade at personal sacrifice
Of money and time.
That is why the conviction has
taken root at Olympia that he is like
ly to be able to put over successful
policy next November. He will keer
the legislative forestry committees
working on the problem all summer
And he now has the active support Of
