Case of State Versus Oil
Companies To Go to Trial

Outstanding in developments at
Olympia this week was the case OF
the state against the seventeen major
oil companies, who have been charged
by the state with conspiracy and
monopolistic control Of high gasoline
prices in this state. Judge William M.
Pemberton argued the twO-day hearing
in Thurston county court and won his
point to put the case to trial. A great
mass of evidence has been compiled by
the states attorney in the case, and
Governor Martin, Attorney General
Hamilton, who brought the action, and
Special Prosecutor Pemberton believe
they have q successful case ahead OF
them against the oil companies. The
case is without parallel in the history
of the state, and is one of the most
important legal actions ever instituted
in Washington.
Judge Pemberton carried the case
to the supreme court when he appealed
against the decision of Judge Wright's
ruling denying the states petition fol
appointment of a receiver to take ove1
the oil companies; and it's application
for an order restraining the companie:
from selling gasoline in excess OF II
cents per gallon, pending trial Of thu
states complaint Of conspiracy, Thu
will not delay the actual trial, judge
i Pemberton said.

Davidson were married Monday after
noon, September II, In Yakima. While
the marriage was not exactly a sur
prise, AL having for some time been

Sales Tax Levy
Boon To Schools

The new state classified business and
sales tax law enacted by the 1888 legls-
lature has been declared constitutional
by the state supreme court. u IS
hoped, by this measure, that between
SIX and eight million dollars year IN
emergency revenue can be obtained.
At the same time the court declared
unconstitutional the state income TAX
law, adopted by voters last fall as an
initiative measure. It was estimated 20
raise from 100000 to $1,000, 600 a year.
Both decisions were given by .
to vote, Justice James M. Geraghty,
Governor Martins appointee to the
bench to succeed Justice Emmet N.
Parker, breaking the ties that mao ex-
listed on both measures.

with other revenues and the i'm
provement shown in property tax col
Elections, the schools are safe for the
1933-1934 school year. If the law had
been declared invalid the terms OF
most rural schools would have been
shortened to six months. Most Of them
will now be able to operate for the
full nine months"
The reason given by the majority
of the court in rejecting the income
tax measure was that an income tax
is property tax, and that under
the fourteenth amendment to the state
constitution all taxes shall be uniform
upon the same class Of property.

Anti.Saloon League
Plans New Campaign

The Anti-saloon League Of Washing
ton will campaign for state dry law
and will carry on an intensive educa-
tional campaign among the young
people under a national-state move
ment, states B. N. Hicks, state super
intendent of the League.
"The registered voters of this state
repealed all of our state dry laws and
declared by their votes that the
Eighteenth Amendment should be re-
pealed. This was done at the request
and for the interests, of the liquor traf-
fic of the United States in alliance with
the liquor interests of the booze con-
trolled countries of Europe that they
might be able to compete industrially
with our country. Labor in these coun-
tries was demanding the American
standard of wages and living which
could not be granted by these in
dustries under the devastating influ-
ence and economic waste Of the bever-
age liquor traffic with which they were
burdened
We are opposed to any attempted
regulatory legislation of the beverage
liquor traffic as substitute for pro-
hibition for many reasons, some OF
which are: First, regulations never
produced anything but increased con-
sumption of liquor with it's increase OF
drunkenness, followed by it's social and
economic evils Second, alcohol is de-
pressant, narcotic drug, the beverage

Grade Apples
Eliminated At
Yakima Meeting
GROWER ASSURED OF MINIMUM
PRICE OF 80 CENTS PER
BOX FOB.

Examination of G grade apples from
sales stocks of all varieties except
Winesaps and Newtowns was ap-
proved by the apple commodity COM
mittee of the Northwest Fruit Indus
tries, Inc, at meeting held In va
kima Friday night, when the market
ing program of the Northwest's fruit
crop this year was considered.
The action won the approval of John
schoonover OF Spokane, manager OF the
Regional Agricultural Credit Corpora
ton, and Ralph Reese, representative
of the Agricultural Adjustment admin
istration.
The committee set eighty cents q
box as the minimum fob. price 1ol
all varieties and grades of apples, ano
ruled to forbid quotations by dealers
or marketing agents on apples over
which they have no control, in which
they have no interest or on which
they have no written option.
The eighty cent fob. minimum price
for all grades and varieties is intended
to stand for the entire apple shipping
season. No attempt was made to con-
troll prices paid on eastern auction OF
private sales in receiving markets, the
fob. minimum being the only regu-
lation established.
Besides eliminating G grades, with
the exception of Winesaps and New.
towns, a strong sentiment developed il
favor of destroying all culls where
grown. While no action was taken or
this subject, it was referred to thu
marketing committee for investigation
and recommendation.
= The marketing committee will b.
charged with the task of stabilizin|
the market from day to day.
