HOOVER CANDIDACY.
MEETS OPPOSITION
Question Raised as to Secre-
tary'S Status Under Law
of Residency.
BY the Associated Press.

~~SSc~ANtN6
NEW YORK, December 19.-The
New York World, Democratic. in a
dispatch from Washington today. says
inc constitutional eligibility of Herbert
Hoover for the presidency is being
questioned; that the question. first
raised In a Whispering campa lgn,
mas become of interest to his friends.
Inc Constitution provides that no
one shall be eligible for the office who
shaH not have attained to the age of
so years and been Ii years a resident
within the United States"
The World says for 20 years before
ne became food administrator in 1917,
AR. Hoover was much in the Orient
ana Europe, and that those who say
ms legal residence was abroad until
1917 declare they have strong legal
evidence bearing in this point.
Those who question Mr.. Hoover's
eligibility, the article adds, maintain
the Constitution means that the IA
years of residence within the United
states must be continuous up to the
time Of taking office.
Mr.. Hoover was born in West
Branch, Iowa, August 10, 1874, and
remained in the United States contin-
uously until 1897, the World says.
Edgar Rickhard Of New York, who
was associated with Hoover in Bel
glan relief work, and has known him
since 1910, is quoted in the article as
saying that Mr.. Hoover has maintain
ed home I'D -eelcraoo n ;tNe led
States during their friendship, ana
physically has been in the United
States each year, though abroad from
time to time.
The World discusses how Hoover
status may be settled. One suggestion
IS that voter may raise the issue in

Proposed Changes
In State Game Laws

Ine committees on the game and
FISHING laws of the state are gradu-
ally getting the situation where it
begins to look as though some con-
crete plan of amendment can be ag-
greed upon. Hundreds of amendments
= the present law have been propos-
ed by different interests scattered
about the state, and when sifted
down, the following will give you an
idea of what is coming:
Measures proposed by j. F. Gould
game and fish commissioner, Clarity
ing and amending existing laws, have
an important bearing on hunting,
fishing and trapping. One proposes
an annual open season on upland
game birds in lieu of the alternate
season law now in effect.
1t provides that prairie chickens
and pinnated grouse may be taken
from September 20 to October l ev-
cry year, instead of from September
Is to October l in odd-numbered
years. The daily bag limit is reduced
from 9 to 5. The quail and pheasant
season would be from October 20 to
November 1 annually. There would
be no open season on ruffed grouse
or partridge. Canada spruce grouse,
upland plover and woodcock also
would go on the list for indefinite
protection.
The use of training of bird dogs in
*elds inhabited by game would be
prohibited during the Matching season
from April 80 to August IA.
An amendment restores black bear
to the list of protected big game ami
mails, with an open season from Octo-
Der Is to January 1. 1t proposes al
ternate open season on deer be from
November l to November 10, though
this may be changed to provide for
an opening date November 10.
The bill would permit hunters from
carrying big game weapons in any
locality frequented by deer for 10
days just proceeding the hunting sea-
son.
1t would wipe out the state zone
law on all species of bass, crapples,
and sunfish, providing for uniform
opening date June Is. 1t would pro-
hibit taking bass out of Minnesota
by tourists. Taking of minnows from
Minnesota also would be prohibited.
The spearing of pickerel would be
prohibited and there is a provision
for barring ice fishing on areas not
to exceed one-half Of each lake inhab-
tied by the various species of game
fish.
The minimum fine for infraction
of certain game laws would be in
creased from $40 to S25 for the first
offense and the penalties strengthen
ed.
A resident angling license pro-
vision is proposed, with fee of ST..
Trappers would be required to Wis
e their traps and remove the ami

pieces. Mix with cream salad dress

sweet apples cut in about "a inch
cubes. Serve with any desired salad
dressing.

AS some one graphically remarked
a vacuum cleaner does not originate
by spontaneous generation. 1t must
be made.
Very few of us realize just how
ingenious contrivance the vacuum
cleaner is until we learn that eleven
hundred different operations are re-
n,lired in its processing
Today there are about six million
vacuum cleaners used in American
homes; this means that about four out
of every ten wired homes now employ
this important appliance.
It is also of interest to note that in
: the manufacture of vacuum cleaners
generally considered household
article-women play leading role.
One large manufacturer reports that
forty per cent of his employees are
women workers.
In the manufacture of vacuum
cleaners eleven different and highly
specialized trades are represented.
These comprise machinists, moulders,
press hands, welders, polishers and
buffers, platers, electricians, sewers,
assemblers, japanners, tool makers and
die makers.
One large distributor-the Graybar
Electric Company lists wide variety
of interesting and some new-appli-
cations of vacuum cleaners that have
developed of recent years.
Consider the following:
(I) Home use-for cleaning rugs
floors, walls, ceilings, furniture, up
holstery, clothing, furs, draperies, etc.
(2) for cleaning purposes In ofic'
buildings, theatres, hospitals, publi'
buildings; Cd their use in factorie
for all kinds of exhausting and blow
ing operations on individual machines

mobiles and garages; 50 for cleaning
telephone switchboards organs, piaro
and other musical Instruments G.

Practically all the stevedoring work
for the Mccormick Steamship Com
pany on Puget Sound is now being
handled by the company's own organi-
cations. The operating department
last month established a stevedoring
organization at the mills of the Chas.
II. Mccormick Lumber Company at
Port Ludlow and Port Gamble with
G. s. Loeffler in charge. Mr.. Loeffler
has been chief supercargo at Seattle
for some time.
The new organization has loaded all
the vessels of the Mccormick Line
since the middle of November at those
two ports as well as carrying on this
work for all the outside vessels load
ing at those ports. The company has
for some time past been doing its
own stevedoring work at Seattle and
Tacoma, as well as taking care of all
the lumber loading for the Mccormick
Lumber Company.
Mccormick forces will also handle
the stevedoring work when their ships
are loading at Everett, Mukilteo and
Everett At Bellingham, arrangements
have been made with the Bellingham
Stevedoring Company to handle the
work, and similar arrangements have
been made with the stevedoring de-
partment of the Charles. Nelson Com
pany at Port Angeles.

June 1922, 1927, are the dates an
nounced for holding the National
Farm boys and girls club camp in
Washington, D. c., next summer. The
boys and girls attending this camp
will represent the 100000 or more
members of the farm boys and girls
clubs, conducted by the cooperative
extension service of the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the State Agricultural Colleges. The
boys and girls in these clubs are en-
gagged in carrying on practical demon.
STATIONS in better methods of farm
ing and housekeeping Dairying, pig
and poultry are among the leading
lines of club work. Each state will
be entitled to be represented by two
boys and two girls so that the en-
campment will have an enrolment of
nearly 200.

Ourselves and Industry
Putting Capital to Work
BY E. E. Lincoln

which he is best fitted. But the i'm
portant business tnits. tuday are no
longer the one-man concern or the
small partnership. Our manufac-
turing, mining and railway COM
panies have attained huge proper
tons, and they require millions Of
dollars where formerly few thou
sands would suffice.
The largest steel company in the
United States employs nearly two
billion dollars of capital in its OPP
erations. No man in the world is
rich enough to own it, and, even
if there were such an individual,
it is hardly probable that he would
be willing to invest his entire for
tune in single undertaking.
This great business concern,
therefore, has obtained its capital
from the investments made by more
than a hundred and fifty thousand
people in stocks and bonds. This
large army of investors share in the
risks as we'll as in the earnings of
the business. SO long as the COM
pany prospers they will receive their
dividends and interest. If it should
meet with financial revcrses, the
stockholders, who are the owners,
might have to do without their divi-
dends.
The number of people who are
thus individually assuming small
part of the risks of business in this
country by investing their surplus
funds is not definitely known, but
is rapidly increasing. Probably
four or five million is a fair esti-
mate.
This wide distribution of owner
ship and consequent risks calls for
constantly better management and
more intelligent workers.
Without this willingness on the
part of millions to share in the risks
of modern business, it would be i'm
possible for us to enjoy the abun-
dance of useful goods of all kinds
which large-scale production, utili-
lation of machinery. and division of
labor have made possible.
