Has Washington's industrial IN
surance act broken down? If 50
what will the coming session OF
the legislature do to remedy con-
ditions?
These are two questions which
are now stirring official Olympia,
following reports that the state
industrial insurance has become
virtually insolvent in at least three
of its larger funds, and that the
industries affected can no longer
meet the ever increasing assess
ments and still keep in business.
The situation is critical There
is no question about this. Indus
trial leaders; labor leaders who
are of studious nature and not
blinded to what has occurred; and
business generally, is worried.
Ominous abuses; ambulance
chasing attorneys; doctors lacking
proper prospective or ethics; even
the inclination on the part OF the
courts to lean over backwards, are
all contributing factors in creating
a condition which threatens indus
trial insurance not only in Wash I
ington but throughout the nation.
Here is something which the
coming session of the Legislature
will have to face. 1t is of interest
to every honest workman alid
every employer in the state that
there be some speedy rectif1catlon
of the existing evils.
The cost Of industrial insurance
has become burden and the pur-
poses of the act are seemingly for
gotten. It is now more than an IN
dustrial insurance act; it can be
classed almost as pension sys-
tenn with unemployment insurance.
The general impression has been
permitted to grow that the state
industrial insurance system IS
some kind of state insurance. But
nothing is further from the real
facts. despite the attitude on the
part of certain beneficianier and
some Of the more easily political
Nv swayed courts. In fact the IN
dustrial insurance act is statute
which provides that industry, en-
ployers Of labor, shall set up
trust fund to be handled by the
state from which injured work
men or their widows and children
shall be provided for.
The state acts only as q trus-
tee of this fund. The general tax
payers Of the state pay the costs
Of administration. The employer
creates the fund through assess
ments. The workman benefits. The
state as such is simply collecting
and disbursing officer.
The fund is not a state fund.
It is a trust fund actually belong
ing to the employers of the state
and to no one else. It is not q state
fund.
Though the abuses which have
crept into the act, there are now
deficits in some Of the major
funds and these are another addi-
tional burden upon the industries
affected.
A study Of the rates and the col
lections show that with few ex-
ceptions the basic rates are lower
than the costs. This simply means
that for some time past the outgo
has been greater than the income.
The result naturally has been de-
pletion of the funds.
Today the rates are reaching as
high as 10 percent in some in
stances. Just what this means can
readily be understood when ap-
piled to the payroll. It is this:
For every 500 wages paid, the
employer must place in the indus
trial insurance fund, $18.

While all kinds of plans for the
handling of the unemployment sit
uation this winter are being adj
vanced, advocated and urged, one
of the most logical is now before
the state officials.
This is proposal for temper
airy sales tax the funds to be used
to assist in taking up the losses
due to the 40-mill limitation, and
at the same time create relief
funds from which this character
of work could be carried on.
1t is roughly estimated that the
sales tax would be easily and very
cheaply collected if the stamp
idea was used, and that it should
apply to everything retailed with
no exception or exemptions. The
tax would bring in more revenue
than the state motor vehicle fund
now receives, and it would at the
same time permit the cities and
counties to carry on. road building
and development, park and beauti-
fication work, public building, each
providing employment and doing
away with the dole entirely.
Property and industry general
ly cannot stand further drains
thru either donations, or assess
ments or taxes. Hence the Legis-
lature must work out some way
Of gathering revenues without up
setting the present economic sys-
tenn. The sales tax would be the
least painful of any, its advocates
argue, and it would be only tenn
porary to meet an emergency.
Whether Governor-elect Martin
will consider such a program is
not known, but many of his clos
est advisors, according to reports

Naturally the results were as
could be expected. The relief work
stopped Immediately. The subdi-
viders cannot pay the insurance
demands. The home owners car
not pay their medical aid assess
ments. There is no incentive for
either party to carry on with the
state department demanding such
heavy payments. Both are actual
ly penalized for providing such
employment.

1887, and the prospect for agreement
on a plan of national government
seemed remote, Washington said to
his fellow delegates from Virginia,
Let us raise standard to which the
wise and honest can repair. The
event is in the hands of God.
On the whole. therefore, it can be
said of George Washington that he
served God and men consistently and
faithfully, according to what he re-
garded as his opportunities, that he
did this unselfishly, and that no lapse
OF time is likely to dim either the
value or the virtue of his service

KEEP TO THE LEFT.

Custom has ordained that the pc
destrian on the rural highway, like
the vehicles, shall keep to the right"
That is proper for the vehicle, but for
the pedestrian the right side is the
wrong side, according to Maxwell N.
Halsey, Traffic Engineer of the Ma
tional Bureau OF Casualty and Surety
Underwriters.
Two thousand persons are killed an
nually in the United States and many
thousands injured because they cling
to the ancient custom. They are
struck at curves, over the crest of
hills and in narrow passes by auto
mobiles coming from behind. Dusk,
before the headlight is turned on, is
very dangerous, but later in the night,
when the silhouette Of the pedestrian
blends into the background even
under the strongest of headlights, is
the most dangerous time of all.
Until the states provide sidewalks
for the country road, the pedestrian
should always keep on the left side,''
MIR. Halsey declares; then at least he
can see the cars coming and move to
safety if the occasion demands it. 1t
may feel awkward at first, but it will
pay.
There are signs Of an awakening
in this matter. North Carolina, West
Virginia, Kansas, Delaware, Massa-
chusetss, New York, and New jersey
have laws which authorize the proper
authorities to build sidewalks along
highways. In other states, county
authorities have been authorized tt
undertake similar construction"
Remember, when walking on {
county road, that the left side is tn,
right side.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY
OBSERVES NATION WIDE
BICENTENNIAL CELEBRATION

A special service was held on Febru-
airy 22nd by Christian Science Society
as a part of the nationwide celebra-
ton of the George Washington BIZ
centennial.
The service included an address on
George Washington by the First
Reader, in part, as follows:
Among all men who have attained
to an equal degree of prominence,
George Washington is one of COM
paratively few whose public and pri-
yate lives are conspicuous for the
presence Of right and the absence Of
wrong. This meeting, therefore, furn-
ishes an occasion for recounting some
of his moral and spiritual traits.
When his environment is consider
ed, Washington can be seen as con-
spicuously unseHish. For instance,
instead of clinging to the assured
profits of his chosen profession, he
responded twice to his colony's call
for public service involving extreme
hazards with little promise Of per-
sonal returns.
Among Washingtons most firmly
formed traits were his faith in Goo
and his respect for religion, even fol
other peoples religions. When once
extremely i'll he calmly said, I know
that I am in the hands of a goot
Providence And he recovered. tt
divine Providence, also, he attributet
his immunity from injury in battle
and at different times, particularly ii
the French and Indian War, hi
escapes from harm seemed miracu
lous. Evidently, also. he had a sens
of Principle. For instance, when tn
Constitutional Convention met ii

Report Of Finacial
Conditions Of Dis. 176


District 176 (vashoD this week facts
of interest to the tax payers were dis
cussed. The financial condition of
the district for the current year and
three previous years show sharp
downward trend in expenditures, out
standing warrants, etc, that is a
credit to the good management of the
present board.
Due to the fact that moneys from
the county and state come to the dis
tricts in the spring the majority of
districts are "in the red" at the OPEN
ing Of the school year each fall.
In 1928 District 176 had deficit at
the opening of the school year of
s6.4O6, with warrants amounting to
1898 outstanding; in 1929 the deficit
was s2,463, with outstanding warrants
of sl22; In 1880 the deficit was slO36,
with outstanding warrants of $406;
while at the beginning of the current
year the deficit was $l54, with only
SAC In outstanding warrants.
Despite the present financial situa-
ton there is also quite marked con-
trast in unpaid taxes in the district.
In 1928 there was $1,000 in unpaid
taxes; in 1929 $4,000; in 1880 $3,087
and in 1881 1894.
In the matter of estimate of ex-
penses there was a decline of 80 1-3
percent over the 4 years. In 1928 this
item was $16310; in 1929 $1O970; in
1880 $4,000 and in 1881 1890.
In 1928 the income of the district
from state and county apportionments
and district special levy was $15,190;
in 1929 sl1,477; in 1880 s1O,965 and in
1880 s11,O19.
In 1923 the valuation of properties
in the district was 1853, 648; in 1925
$4e6,470; in 1880 s472,310 and in 1881
$473,1e0.
The levies in 1928 were 20 mill;
special and mills bond and bono
interest; in 1929 10 and 2: in 1880 1:
mills; and in 1881 IA mills.
| A is percent reduction of valuation
on properties this year will reduce
revenue, making 1t necessary to ash
for mills for general school pur-
4 poses instead of 2 mills as last year
which will still be about $3.50 less thar
last year.
There will also be special levy o
| mills asked to bring the water from
the Vashon system to the schoo
which will cost about 1892.
A report on the condition Of Dis
trict 176 would not be complete with
out mention Of the repairs and i'm
provements made during the pas
four years. In 1928 new floors in tn
halls and new stairs were put in; il
1929 new furnace costing $1175 wa
installed; in 1880 $500 was spent TO
new floors in the school rooms an
in 1881 there was an expenditure Q
$l265 for plumbing. In addition t
the improvements in the building tn
school has been conducted in an ad
mirable manner and is q credit to tn
district.
