BARS PUT UP AGAINST
ALIENS SEEKING WORK HERE

Washington, D. c. Representative
Dickstein, chairman Of the Immigra-
ton Committee Of the House, declares
that the administration is violating
the immigration law in n rigid en-
forcement of that act. 1t is main
talned on the other hand that the adj
ministratlon is acting wholly within
the law by excluding oil aliens liable
to become public charges. Further
more, 1t is held by some of the mem
beers of the immigration Committee
opposed to Mr.. Dickstein's Views that
1t Is unlikely that unrestricted immi-
grafton will ever again be permitted,
for the reason that the United States
no longer needs the influx of foreign
ers, who will come into competition
with American workmen, to develop
this country.

HOMER JONES ENTERS
RACE FOR TREASURER

Homer Jones, VINO for the past three
years has been assistant state treas
urer, today announced his candidacy
for the Republican nomination for
state treasurer at the September pri-
marles. He seeks to succeed Charles
w. Hinton, who, under the constitu-
tlon, Is ineligible for for reelection.
Mr.. Jones served In the navy during
the World War, and has been n resi-
dent Of Kitsap county since 1901 when,
as q boy Of seven years, he came west
with his father, Missouri farmer, to
settle In Charleston, now merged with
Bremerton.
Mr.. Jones was treasurer Of Kitsap
county when offered the appointment
as assistant state treasurer which
brought him to olympia In 1928 Prior
to that len had been councilman,
and mayor Of Charleston. Since he
came to Olympia Mr.. Jones has served
as Commander Of the olympia Post
OF ,he American Legion and has been
active in Elk, Masonic and Odd Eel
lows organizations.
"1he state treasurer has two vitality
important functions; one to protect
the state funds in his care and the
other to direct the investment Of the
state permanent funds" said Mr..
Jones today. I'VE now have $4,000
900 in the state Permanent School
Fund; 100000 In, other permanent
funds and $l0,0O0,O00 in the Accident
Fund During the next term of the
state treasurer I expect these funds
will earn not less than 100000 be-
sides exercising such an influence up
on the bond market that municipal
tiles and other subdivisions OF the
state can obtain low rates Of interest
for their funded debt. During the
period of economic stress the state has
not lost dollar Of its deposits, the
treasurer's office maintaining such a
check on the securities given for the
protection Of state funds that we have
more than $l5,000,0O0 in authorized
legal securities locked in the treasur-
er's vault to guard against any con-
tingency
During the past year we retired
100000 of Veterans Compensation
Fund bonds and are saving an annual
interest bill of sl75,oOo. Work of the
state treasurer's office has increased
IS percent since Joined the staff"

DRYS TO CENTER NEW EFF.
FORTS ON OLD
STATE LAWS

1t is still unlawful to manu-
facture, transport, or sell in
toxicating liquor in any part of
the United States, despite the
election of wet candidates and
the repeal of some state en-
fOrcement acts.
Dry organizations declare it
has been found ) necessary to
emphasize this in view of mis-
understandings arising from
the election, and from the at
titude and actions of certain
public officials since.
The Eighteenth Amendment
and Volstead Act remain as
much in force as ever, it is
pointed out, even in those
states which have withdrawn
their cooperation in enforce
ment. The only difference, Of
ficials declare, is that where no
state law exists liquor cases
must be taken before a federal
court. The offense however, is
none the less serious.
Avowed wet intentions to
violate the amendment openly
because of a so-called "weU ma
chine" is causing little appre-
nension among dry leaders.
They hold such extrava-
gance will in the end hurt the
vets by bringing sharply to
the attention of the public the
social dangers inherent in the
return of the liquor traffic.
Despite this attitude they
will do what they can to pre-
vent such wholesale violations
of the law as have been threat
ened. In addition Col. Amos
w. w. Woodcock, director of
prohibition, has given orders
to all agents of the Prohibition
Bureau to be on the alert for
renewed bootlegging activities
and to maintain standards of
enforcement.
State officials continue to
have certain degree of re-
sponsibility in enforcing the
Eighteenth Amendment and
the Volstead Act regardless of
whether state prohibitory and
enforcement laws are repealed.
Rather than emphasizing vi
olation of moral obligation
under the Eighteenth Amend
ment, the Anti-Saloon League
is apparently planning to study
preprohibitiOn legislation care
fully with a view to- invoking
the old laws against threatened
violations. They are inclined
to consider this more practic-
al method of forestalling wet
plans for flooding states which
no longer have state prohibi-
ton.
Plans are also being laid for
testing the constitutionality of
legdlized beer in the event the
present Congress modifies the
VOlstead Act.

THE MAN-NOT HIS CAR

According to a brief article
in The Safe Driver, a publica-
ton of the National Safety
Council, about 80 per cent Of
all motor vehicle accidents can
be charged to three things:
Bad judgment, carelessness
and stupidity. In a recent
study of over a million motor
accidents, it was found that the
entire share of fatal accidents
attributable to defects in the
car amounted to only about IL
per cent, while for non-fatal
accidents the car was defective
in but 5 per cent of the cases.
In other words, 8 accidents
out of 10 are the fault of the
man who drives the car, and
not the car itself. AS DIR. Mil
Ter McClintock, of Harvard,
has phrased it, the remedy is
to convince man that he must
live up to his car. When he
reaches as high a degree of
perfection in his driving as the
modern automobile represents,
deaths on streets and highways
will be due for a 80 per cent
drop.

measure without eliminating
or changing existing agencies.
The net result is that these
bodies are today overlapping,
interfering, and are reaching a
point OF cost that is prohibit
tive.
The tax structure, of course,
rests on all classes-farmers,
as well as others. The farm
er is interested in seeing the
total tax bill reduced national
ly. But, more than that, he is
interested in seeing the burden
readjusted so that he will not
be required to carry more than
his just share.
Next week Mr.. Fairbank
will discuss the farmers tax
burden, as compared to other
groups.)

should interfere with the state
wide effort of the Maryland Tu-

There is greater need than
ever for work among Mary

fact, this undertaking has be-
come so important that if funds
are available, the Miracle
House will be operated as a
year round institution.
There has been marked in
crease in the attendance at the
free chest clinics this year.
This activity is considered to
be one of the outstanding
pieces of tuberculosis work in
the country.

The day the last "independ-
emit" farmer joins sound CO.
operative, agriculture will have
real and permanent prosperity.
And in the meantime, all farm
ers owe it to themselves and
their calling to do everything
possible to back up their CO.
operatives, not only through
their own loyal support, but in
bringing unorganized farmers
into the fold. We live in a
fast-moving, highly competi-
tive world, and cooperation is
perhaps even more essential to
agriculture than to industry at
large.

MUSIC AND SONG

Evangelist John Moses Baker
Baltimore, Maryland
Music and song are like sun
shine,
They brighten the way as
we sing
On the journey of life, in the
conflicting strife,
So much peace and great
happiness bring.
Music and singing, we never
can tell
How it comforts and cheers
by the way;
In the church, school, and
home, and wherever we
roam,
The songs of the night and
the day.
Remember the song of the an
gels,
AS they welcomed the birth
of the King;
1t echoes today from that home
far away,
In the heart of His children
that sing.
Yes, music and singing forever,
Not only on earth but in
Heaven;
Around the white throne, in
that beautiful home,
Where crowns to the faithful
are given.

Christmas trees cut in the
national forests this year will
carry red tags certifying that
they were cut without detri-
ment to the timber stands, and
in line with careful thinning
practice and good forest man
agement.
By far the larger portion Of
the annual supply of Christ
mas trees, however, is cut from
privately owned lands. Farm
ers in some States have formed
local organizations to stand
ardize their product, to obtain
orders before cutting the trees,
and to promote care in cutting,
so as to get annual crops.

If our states were suddenly
to pass laws similar to those of
France, which make a proper
ty-owner whose carelessness
causes a fire responsible for
damage done to other property,
fire loss would drop overnight
to a new low.
There is not much danger of
such a law coming into being.
But it would be a good thing if
we pretended it already existed,
and acted accordingly.

DON'T RUN THIS RISK

Jack Martin-that isn't his
real name, but it will do as well
as any other-decided to do
some tinkering on his automo-
bile. The radiator, in partic-
ular, needed to be drained, and
various other things needed to
be attended to.
Knowing the danger of car
bon monoxide poisoning, he
kept the doors Of the garage
open while he worked. He
fixed his soda solution, poured
it into the radiator and started
the engine, to warm up the
water. Then he crawied un-
derneath the machine and be-
gan tightening some OF the
screws. He realized suddenly
that he was getting light-head-
ed. He crawled out from un-
der the machine and started
toward the open door. He col
lapsed before he reached it;
fell; cut his mouth against the
fender and lay there complete
ly unconscious.
A boy of seventeen passed by
on his way to study his lessons
with a school chum. Chemis-
try happens to be one of the
boys favorite studies -espec-
tally the laboratory stuff, and
the queer things that gases
can do to you.
He saw the light in the ga
rage; looked in; saw the figure
collapsed over the fender; and
heard the engine running.
He called for help, but Jacks
family were all in the front of
the house and nobody heard
him. He didn't wait a second.
He picked up Jack, dragged
and carried him out into the
air; laid him on his face on
the pavement-this happened
in Baltimore City-bent the
arm farthest away and rested
Jacks face on his hand;
stretched out the other arm at
full length over his head-this
took less time than it takes to
tell it straddled Jacks body
and began pressing his ribs in
and out to force oxygen into
his lungs.
Meanwhile, he kept his eyes
open for passing machines.
One came along; he and the
driver lifted their still uncon-
scious burden into the car and
rushed him into a nearby hos
pital. The hospital doctors
pumped oxygen from a tank
into Jacks lungs for forty-five
minutes before he came to.
"This is a true story" DIR. r.
H. Riley, Director of the State
Department OF Health said in
telling it. "It happened to a
member of the staff of the State
Department Of Health. It
shows more strongly than any
thing | can say that it isn't
safe to do work of any sort, on
an automobile, a truck, a mot
orcycle, or on any other motor
driven vehicle, indoors, while
the engine is running, even
though the doors are open.
Carbon monoxide, the gas
generated in the exhaust of
the engine, is colorless and
odorless. 1t is a deadly pois-
on. 1t gives no warning. 1t
did not get in its deadly work
this time, because the door
was open, a certain amount of
fresh air got in, and the boy.
who knew what to do and did
it, came along at that moment.
"As to the boy" DR.. Riley
said, that's the kind we raise
in this country. We have
reason to be proud of them"
