It's wonder those senators get gray-headed.

A CROSS WORD PUZZLE

Inasmuch as there has been some criticism concern ng the activities of the recent session of the Alaska leg isature it might be well to state that copies of laws passed have been examined and we are constrained to believe that the session did fair job at that n spite or the rule or ruin tactics of the delegate clan, otherwise known as the UNSPEAKABLE FIVE in the Senate !,
 In the first place the legislature did not spend all the money in the treasury nor did it raise in any degree This alone is achievement worthy or note Ill this day when mounting taxes threaten the business wei fare of many of states and municipalities And to leave comfortable balance in the treasury IS also de- srable and necessary in Territory where the income from taxation is uncertain being largely dependent upon the fish rn the by far the greatest part of the Territorial revenue.
 With the exception of couple of "nincompoops" the Third Division members hit the ball.

ODE TO THE STARR

ODE TO THE STARR The steamer Starr With a double R Is one with a good reputation She carries no wine And sails on time Right straight for her destina-

TO MAKE WASHINGTON THE
HOLLY STATE

The people of the northwest
are most fortunate in their sur
roundings. Not a little of the
charm Of our great out of doors
is due to the abundance and
beauty of our native flowers,
trees and shrubs. These are ours
to enjoy, but whether or not
they are to be enjoyed by future
generations will depend upon
the care WE take of them.
1t is our duty-it should be
our pleasure-to conserve these
things of nature. And the peo-
pie of Vashon and Maury Is
lands have exerted themselves
as people have no where else to
see to it that nature has not
been tempered with to the ex-
tent Of obliterating the growth
of those things that please the
eye and content the heart, and
the aim of every thoughtful per-
son is to perpetuate this thing
of beauty and a glory forever. +"
This is in line with the senti-
ment expressed in the message
of the Washington State Society
for the Prevention of Wild
Flowers. 1t is a message with
which all lovers Of nature agree.
But the interests of the society
are broader than that that. They
would not only keep what we
have, but they would add to it.
just now a. movement is I'M
derway to encourage the plant
ing of holly trees. Many years
ago the English holly was intro
duced locally. 1t has found our
soil and climate friendly. So
much so that it can, and is, be-
ing grown on a larger scale
commercially, in Washington
than in any other state. 1t has
also found friendly corner in
the hearts of our people.
During the winter the society
has encouraged the saving of
holly berries. With the coopera-
ton of many people large
quantity are now on hand.
These will undergo a fore

washington, June 27.-Mr. Herbert
Hoover is entitled to sit back and con-
template the present state Of Ameri-
can foreign relations with consider
able satisfaction. On the whole, the
international situation Seems to be a
more pleasant sight than at any time
since war clouds first began to APP
pear over Europe.
One refers TO the result Of the Brit
ish elections and the forthcoming
conference between Hoover and Pre-
mier Ramsay Macdonald and the lat
est settlement of the PREPARATIONS
problem with its bearing on our for
eign debts. Both these situations
have shaped up in a manner unques-
tionably pleasing to Hoover.
Macdonald and Hoover between
them are pretty certain to end def
initely the naval armament race in
which the United States and Britain
have been engaged since the war.
Whether or not they will be able to
reduce the size Of the two navies, both
would like to, and there has been
little but praise in this country for
Hoover's public reduction proposals.
The atmosphere of Anglo-Amcrican
relations has been more or less cloud
ed these last five years. but it now
appears that the two new govern
ments r going to get together on
Z peaceful working agreement. And
that will be about as strong a guar
antee Of world peace as anyone could
devise.
Europe Is Better Off
The value Of the latest PREPARATIONS
agreement as a stabilizing factor
seems already to be apparent in Eu-
rope. It must be a source of satisfac-
ton to Hoover to observe that Euro
pean statesmen are using o and
more common sense in the milking Of
Germany. At the time of the YER
sailles peace conference Hoover and
other American economist and finan-
cial experts on the spot agreed that
Germany couldn't pay more than
$3.50 600, 900 a year and that her total
r~eparations payments. based on ca
pacity, ought to be around 20 or %
billion dollars.
But In those days France was de-

Now, ten years later. the Young
plan calls for annuities averaging
$492 OOO. COO for 81 years and then
S4O5, OOO, 900 until the 59th year, a
general average very close to the or
iginal American estimate and we'll
below the Dawes plan annuitics of
$500, 900 900.
A glance over the rest of the map
must also be pleasing to Hoover and
Secretary of State Stimson. There
are no serious Mexican. N~icaraguan
and Chinese situations such as
ried Coolidge and Kellogg a couple OF
years ago. Coolidge settled the Mex
lean trouble for an indefinite period
by sending the tactful Dwight Nor
row as ambassador to Mexico City.
Nicaragua appears to have a strong
popular government which is on ex-
ccllent terms with Washington. China
is having internal troubles, but they
are causing us no serious concern.
Latin America Is COntcnted
Feeling in Latin-America has been
more kindly toward us since Hoover's
Good Will Tour" A few points of
international friction still exist. of
course. and others may arise at any
time. Quite a few nations have al
ready made protests of ono kind o
another concerning our proposed tar
if boosts. That's natural, and the
results of any threatened foreign re-
prisals presumably will be on an eco
nomic rather than of a political ma
ture.
The French have vet to ratify the
Mellon Berencer debt agreement. but
the reparations agreement is expected
to lead to that.
We still don't recognize the Russian
government. but appear to be losing
no dollars on account of u attitude.
Russian-American business continues
to expand just the anne
Some people profess to see posi-
bilities Of embarrassment over the
question of extending diplomatic &c

ton of crossing that bridge until
somebody pushes the bridge into its

and its trails grow singularly dull,

lists from every which way begin a
