eYPsIEs PAY US A CALL

Seven or eight carloads of gypsies
descended on White Bluffs last Fri
day afternoon and swarmed all over
town reading palms and telling for
tunes, predicting good or bad luck
according to how much the victims
dug up. Two BITS entitled one to
an increase in business and gen
orally more pleasant outlook on life
while a dollar guaranteed one all
kinds of blessings, including beauti-
full young wife and price for your
apples far beyond the widest dreams
Of avarice.
The dark skinned visitors were
travelling in style: in Lincolns, Stude-
bakers and Marmon Fights. There
wasn't fl.vver in the whole cara
van. They covered the territory here
thoroughly and disappeared toward
Yakima as quickly as they had come,
to the relief of everybody.

II am not the candidate of or
pledged to any polit cal clique or
faction and if elected / shall go to
Olympia free from any pledges or
promises except the pledge l give

of the state or county, regardless OF
who may be its sponsor.
Good roads are desired by all and
I am heartily in favor of contin-
uation of our pay as they are built"
policy but very strongly favor more

elected.
II hope for the speedy completion
of the Naches Pass highway and for

The early completion of North Bank
highway and it's continuation as a
north and south highway across the
state is of vital Importance in my
estimation and l shall use every effort
to secure legislation along that line.
Irrigation is the life of agriculture
in Benton County. There are many
ser GUS problems confronting the ir-
rigation districts which must be
worked out by the legislature. !
pledge myself to give these matters
the most careful consideration and
study and to support such measures
as may be necessary for the relief
of irrigation.
Good government. tax reduction,
irrigation, better roads, and agricul-

which pledge my best efforts in
the event of my election"

The front of the White Bluffs

worked over during the past few
weeks to give it more citified ap-
pearance. A part Of the storage
room across tie whole front has been
made over into an office and stor-
age room for accessories, a half moon
curve has replaced the old square
corner facing the two streets, and the
gas tank will be removed from its
old location in front of the building
to where the corner formerly was,
permitting cars to drive on both sides
OF it. The changes not only add
to the appearance Of the building but
it gives the company lots more room
and will be much more convenient.

BIRCH'S BRILLIANT SHOW
LIBERTY, OCTOBER 5TH

It is not the intention of the
writer. to dwell at all upon his ex-
periences, or qualifications, as a
magician, yet 1 have been a stu
dent Of magic for nearly fifteen
years, constantly, and have seen
and enjoyed every magic act, that
has been within two hundred
miles of my various homes, in for
ty-one states in the union. At no
/ time. or on any occasion have |
had the pleasure of seeing; more
gotten out of any one effect, bet
ter stage department, a more
pleasing personality, than | have
witnessed, upon seeing the full
evenings entertainment of magic,
put on by Mcdonald Birch, under
the auspices of the Affiliated Ly-
ceum and Chautauqua association.
When the curtain rises on Mr..
Birch's act, you see first, a stage
we'll and tastefully set, not gaudy,
not too brassy, or "tin panny,"
but Just pleasing to the eye. His
back drop is a very light purple,
almost old gold, trimmed with a
trifle deeper shade of the same
the side drops T of the same
material and trimming as the back
drop. Tables and decorative
screens, on either side, blend cas-
ily into the general color scheme,
making the whole a pleasing
sight to the eyes.
The moment MI. Birch makes
his entry. he has made friends
with every man, woman, boy and
child in the audience, and as one
effect follows another, first you
laugh, with the unwise, and then
YOU say to yourself, there is an
old effect, absolutely revived, and
entirely different, I did not dream
hat it would ever amount to any
thing. vet here it is and a feature
in itself.
All through the show, you look
for one other thing, "the very cap
able assistant" but in this you
are doomed to disappointment, for
there is none. That is one other
very wonderful thing about n OF
the most delightful evenings you
will ever spend.
In conclusion I will say without
any fear of contradiction, that Nc

beat the Republicans. Prohibition
and farm-relief appeared to have
split the Republican ranks
whereas the Democrats presented
an apparently solid front.
But we are worrying no longer.
Experience has shown that the
Republican split was merely a
surface crack less than an inch
deep whereas the Democratic front
especially it's Southern exposure,
seems to be crumbling. And the
farm-relief yowl is showing up in
it's true colors as a preconvention
campaign move in favor of Low
den and Dawes.
Now, loved ones, don't misun-
derstand. We still maintain be-
tween the party organizations
styling themselves Republican
here and Democratic there; we
are still convinced that both plat
forms are built out of the identi-
cal meaningless n
piffle. On these subjects our
opinion has not changed. But we
do believe most intellectually
that of the two leading candidates
Herbert Hoover is by far the bet
ter fitted to be President of the
States. And because of
his belief we are glad to an
that every week since the
nomination Hoover has been gain
ng and Smith has been losing
strength. We are so certain of
Ioover's election that we are
to stake our one spare
ire against a cigar-store coupon

1t is worth while in discussing
Governor Smiths attitude on pro-
hibition to consider the opinion
of Silas H. Strawn, able Chicago
lawyer. former president of the
American Bar Association, and an
opponent of the principle of prohi-
bition. Says Mr.. Strawn;
Assuming for the sake of ar
gument, that Governor Smiths
plan were adopted and the regula-
ton Of the manufacture, sale and
distribution of intoxicating Ii
uuor were referred back to the
states. some of which would be
dry and some wet, the amount OF
smuggling and b%ootlegging that
would obtain between the states
and the amount of crime that
would result therefrom would be
infinitely greater than that which
now prevails"

came chairman of the American
Relief Committee at London. He
then became chairman of the
Commission for the Relief of Bel
GUM. and when we went into the
war in 1917, was made American
Food Administrator by President
Wilson.
He was a member of the War
Trade Council, the United States
Grain Corporation, the Sugar
Equalization Board, the ~Interallied
Food Council, the Supreme Econ
omic Council, and the European
Coal Council, and chairman of
several of these bodies. He direct
ed the organization of food sup
plies for many of the European
countries during and after the
Armistice and was chairman of
the American Relief Administra-
ton engaged in children's relief in
Europe. He was a member and
vice chairman of President Will
sons Second Industrial Conference
and chairman of the European Re
lief Council.
He entered President Harding's
cabinet as Secretary of Commerce
which position he held under
President Coolidge and relinquish-
ed only after he vas nominated
for President.
AS secretary of Commerce he
has been in close touch with all
business and economic conditions
and developments in this country
since 1921, and has expended the
department of commerce into
what is the most efficient govern
mental organization of its kind in
he world.
These eight years in Washing
ton as a cabinet member have Civ
en- him insight into and experience
with all governmental processes,
especially in their relations to
business and economics, and he is
conceded to have a wider, more
accurate and more varied know
ledge of the necessities of bust
s and trade in all their branch
es as related to the government,
and the necessities and opportun-
tiles of government as related to
business and trade, than any man
of our present or our past. He is
fifty-four years old.
Hoover is lot a politician. His
life interests and work have been
in business, in production and dis
tribution, and for the past eight
years he has been at the root of
all our business and economic
conditions.
These, without embroidery, are
the record of the two leading can
didates for the presidency, viewed
in the light of the paramount pres
idential and executive need of the
United States at this time and for
the four forthcoming years. The
average American voter, having
his own best interests and the
country's highest interests at
heart, desiring the continuance of
prosperity and the maintaining Of
our supremacy, should study
them carefully.
These records and the men be-
hind them are the brass tacks of
this campaign. Platforms, speech
es, publicity, propaganda, radio,
movies and all the rest of the bal
lyhoo are inconsequential. This is
the vital stuff.

YUST about a year ago we published, in your
advertising columns, a message in which we
sought to give you and your readers an idea OF
what General Motors is and what it is trying to
accomplish. At that time the public was purchas-
ing our cars at the rate of about one in every three;
and our Frigidaire automatic refrigerator and
Delco-Light electric plants were leading in popular
preference in their respective fields.
Since then each of our car divisions has intro
duced new, further improved models and public
patronage has reached the point where almost
one out of two automobiles purchased is General
Motors car. Frigidaire and Delco-Light products
have showed comparable increases in sales.
The reason for this is two-fold. First, the public
wants value for its automobile dollar and recog-
nizes value when it is given. Second, General
Motors is seeking so to conduct its operations as
to deserve the goodwill of the public.
We are particularly impressed with the number
of letters which have come to Us from editors
Of small city newspapers during recent months.
These editors, who are in a position to reflect
local sentiment, speak of the goodwill which
attaches to General Motors in their communities

and express an obviously sincere appreciation of
the character of General Motors advertising in
their publications.
For our advertising has been as much concerned
with giving your readers facts of helpfulness TO
them in the purchase of automobiles as with the
merits of our own products. Our messages have
set forth the principles of trade-in transactions
and used car allowances. They have dsalt with
time payments and the change in TIE public's
attitude toward the used car. Other messages
have told of the policies of General Motors and
of how our resources are being employed to effect
them.
That General Motors enjoys the goodwill Of
the people in the small cities and on the farms 81
America gives us an especial satisfaction aid
confidence in the future. 1t is in the country
sections Of the United States that half our popu-
lation lives. 1t is there that the whole industry
must look in increasing measure for maintenance
of the production volume upon which high values
and low prices depend. And it is there that
General Motors is paying particular attention TO
its facilities for sales and service.
To our friends in your community we express
our thanks.

MODERN GIRLS
GARB is FOUND
MORE COSTLY
ClOthierS, However, Assert
Prices No Higher, but
Material Poorer.

81 CHite0 Press
LONDON, Sept. 14.-The Ministry
of Labor says that the modern girl
pays 120 per cent more for her
clothes than the girl Of 1914.
The big clothing stores of Lon
don say she does not.
And SO the battle is on.
An official of a west end store de-
clares: 1.-THE principal difference be-
tween pre-war and postwar clothes
is quality rather than price.
Materials Less Durable
Whereas, a woman in 1914 might
buy an outfit for 500 which would
last her several years, and then be
passed on to a relative or be cut
down for the children, a woman
nowadays will buy one for the same
cost, or less, but it will not last her
so long because the materials are
not as solid"
Gloves, stocking, handkerchiefs,
and the dainty under clothing which
takes the place of the solid wooden
and flannel variety, all actually cost
less, it was stated, than in pre-war
days.
The Ministry of Labor and the
big stores, agree, however, that
mere man is groaning under an in
creased clothing burden, but the
stores think that 100 per cent is a
little too high.
Men Pay More
