WAR RISK INSURANCE
.LIBERALIZED BY COURT
Justice Groner Says Permanent
Disability" Does Not Pre-
clude Recovery.

The District Court of Appeals, In an
opinion by Justice D. Lawrence Groner
today liberalized the terms Of the war
risk insurance policies and reversed a
judgment in favor of the Veterans Bu-
reau, which had been rendered in the
District Supreme Court in the case of
Erving H. Burgoyne, a soldier in the
Regular Army.
The court ruled the term total and
permanent disability" does not mean
there could be no recovery and that the
soldier must be 100 per cent disabled.
Burgoyne was granted new trial.
The trial judge had instructed the
jury the term meant permanent in the
sense that there can be no recovery; to-
tai in the sense that it is 100 per cent
disability and that disability perma-
nent, no recovery, and preventing him
from ever again following continually a
substantially gainful occupation"
The Appellate Court held the jury
might have believed the court meant to
hold that the law required the petit

such as to make any work impossible.
After reviewing decisions of other
courts. Justice Groner reached the con-
clusion that the fact the claimant
works when physically unable to do so,
thereby endangering his health, or be-
cause he is able to work spasmodically
or for short periods, ought not, in
either case, to defeat his right to re-

WIVES PROMISE
TOWN CLEANUP
Women, in Control, Pledge
Wholesale Clearing Out
of BootIeggers.
epeciaI Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
TACOMA, Wash, March Is (NA.N
Aft the energy and determination
that results in spick and span home
during Spring cleaning can do the
same for community's morals, then
Duvall, small town near here, will
be model for purity once the four
housewives who were swept into all
the political offices assume their seats
on June !.
Expressing themselves as very much
dissatisfied with present conditions
especially the enforcement of the pro-
hibition laws, the four matrons drop
ped their customary household duties
to enter the political ring for the first
time on "house-cleaning ticket"
They quietly assailed the records of
their male opponents and when the
votes we're counted Mrs. S. A. Bourke
was elected mayor over Harvey Sunk,
incumbent, and Mrs. r. H. Stapleton,
Mrs. j. I. Miller and Mrs. William
Roney won seats in the City Council
by large majority.
Promise to Get Rsults.
When these four women gather
that things will happen. If moral in
dignation can do it, the bootleggers
and other law violators of Duvall will
leave the community. The women
have been up in arms for long time
over the failure to enforce the dry
laws.
Mrs. Stapleton, Councilwoman-elect,
explained that 1.-The issue was whether
our town was to be wet or dry. A
resident deputy sheriff never arrested
a bootlegger unless we told him to.
Then the mayor and the City Council
would rush down and bail out the
bootlegger."
This after election statement brought
a chorus of plaintive denials from the
defeated males whose overconfldence
caused them to ignore the 'petticoat
ticket"
"Why, we didn't even know what the
election issues were," said Mayor Sunk,
They put up a women's slate and
licked us. That's all there was to it. y
He Indignantly denied that he and
his CITY Council bailed out bootleggers.
But the injured feelings of the males
who lost decisively in the first political
engagement with DuvalPs housewife
brigade have aroused no sympathy, at
least not with the victors.
Silent on Methods.
so Mayor Sunk did not know what
the issues were? Well, he knows now
and he certainly is sunk" Mrs. Bourke
said. "Law-abiding citizens felt there
was only one remedy. That was to
elect housewives to do some real house
cleaning. They put us in and we'll
do the job right" she added with
determined nod of her head.
Although none of the successful can
eidates will talk about the methods
used in their campaign. it was learned
that the women took advantage of an
effective bit of political strategy to
unhorse the self f-satisfied males.
Leaving the sturnps, soap boxes and
platforms to their opponents, they
welded together reform organization
which functioned efficiently enough to
put the feminine ticket into Office with
a considerable margin.
Noise and oratory did not decide the
Duvall election.

The whipping post has been re-

first time in fifty years in drive
to eradicate crime and lawless-
ness"
Before approximately 300 silent
townspeople late Tuesday, Jess
Wynn, 81, and his brother, William,
48, were given twenty lashes by
Sheriff John Stevens for stealing
SO icebox.
When they pleaded guilty to the
theft charges, the brothers were told
to choose between thirty days in
jail on bread and water diet and
the whipping post. They chose the
latter.
Two buggy whips were broken over
the younger brothers back, before
the burly sheriff picked up black
snake whip with which he COM
pleted the punishment.
Judge Robert B. Putnam, who
ordered the punishment, said the
whipping was not to be "unduly
rough or inhuman, but at the same
time it was not to be any pink tea
affair either"
