it took a horse almost minute to
trot or walk a city block and a
fairly long time to make a cross
ing, the people today step on the
gas and make four or five sema-
phores. Besides that, where there
were ten horses there are now a
thousand motor cars.
In those days a policeman's cor
ner was his own business and he
operated it in his own way; he did
not care what went on block
away. Each corner was a problem
in itself.
Today traffic demands semaphores
at every intersection in the mile
square. Every semaphore should
operate co-ordinately. Traffic should
be so organized that an automobile
entering at one end of the mile
square and wanting to emerge at
the other end could do so without
stopping once. If the auto was
turned it would wait only on one
sign. Avenues could be worked into
this scheme.
Four years ago the writer APP
preached the police with such a plan
and the gentleman in charge con-
sidered it huge joke and sent him
with it to the Negro garage operator
at headquarters. Recently he sug-
gested the same system, explaining
it in detail. There was no response.
1t remains for the public to see
what will be done.

Reading your editorial quoting
Professor Einstein'S reflection up
on our American school system
as tending to preserve the initia-
tive and independence of pupils
far more successfully than do the
schools in Europe" prompts this
letter to you.
I do not agree with the literal
Interpretation of Einstein's obser-
walton. Einstein is a rebel in spirit
and action and this fact allows
me to assume that his comparison
of the American and European
schools was a fgurative one pune
tuating a desire in his own mind
and not a wish that our methods
of educating be adopted as a
standard for the world.
Your analysis of Einstein's re-
marks fails to probe his acumen
in discussing the superficiality of
conduct and morality Astounding
in the American success version
so innocently CD fashioned by adj
vertised formulate and sponsored
by the various pep sessions OF
Chambers of Commerce, luncheon
clubs and Christian advancerS.
Our school life is a mob move
ment. Its method induces a fol-
lower-the-leader psychology. The
recent basketball tourney with its
attendance of hero worship in
fected students" demonstrates my
point of view. Now youth GER
tainly must have an. abandon of
spirit and it is sign of health
and vigor. But when our edu-

Disagrees With Einstein

cational system stresses the mob
psychology then one can justly
rise to arms and dispute any con-
tention that the system makes for
initiative and independence.
Our political encourage prevents
most of our educators from de-
veloping the minds of youth into
larger perspectives. We have fine
teachers who are thwarted in do
ing bigger things by the log cabin
minds Of those who control mat
tiers Of sociological and psycholo-
gical import.
F'iguratively speaking, L believe
Einstein's remarks we're not di-
rected in applause Of our system,
but in anticipation Of the capa-
bility of the average American
student to honest freedom and in
dividuality, if left, to the care Of
our competent teachers not en-
barrased by stingy budgets, pro-
duction methods and conformity
to opinions invented by mixture
of reformers and dumb politicians.
The European schools always
have stressed the cultural and
we go there or to pattern Of
the European school to round out
a full cultural life. I did not do
this but as my complex failed to
allow for playing follow the lead
err" I have been fortunate in re-
tanning a sense of initiative and
independence.
Maybe Einstein agrees with
your editorial comment regarding
his remarks. Then I will have to
Disagree with him, too.

RADIO SERMON SUGGESTED
FOR HOWARD GABLE

BY T. F. L.
If we all lined up with Mr.. Cadle,
as Mrs. Ridpath suggested, who
would send us the sausage for break
fast?
There is one thing he always is
trying to impress people with in
his broadcastS, and that is how
great he is, how many worldly goods
he had accumulated, and how big
they are.
If you have a sick and hungry
child, you pray. If Professor Davis
played for you on the great S35, 900
organ, it ought to make your child's
little stomach feel better, Mrs. Rid
path, or perhaps you can have the
honor of walking through one of
the nineteen doors. That would be
swell.
But don't fool yourself. God sends
some Of his servants to sick child.
That's why we pray. That's why we
believe in prayer.

morning, and read over the radio

AN UNWISE TAX

MERE should be no compromise with the
proposed cocoanut oil tax in the pending
revenue bill
It is tax that would mulct consumers of
many millions, and yield the government
little. The difference would flow into the
pockets of the cottonseed crushers, packers
and professors of dairy products.
1t is a tax that would PROSTATE a basic in
dustry in the Philippine islands and thus de-
stroy a profitable foreign market for Amer
lean farm products and manufacturers.
1t is a tax that would violate the United
States three weeks-old independence pledge
to the Filipino people and endanger success
of our peace policy in the far east.

HOW CAN SHE MEET

How can the government expect a

5. s. Bornite Leaves With
 Premier and Dunwell Ores

The Coastwise freight steam CT Bornite left Thursday with 1500 tons of Premier concen- trates for the Tacoma shelter, in addition to 43 tons of con- centrates and 15 tons of high grade ore from the Dunwell, also for Tacoma. The big freighter also lowed away a 500-ton barge load of silicious ore from the Dunwell destined for the Granby shelter at An yox.
 The vessel brought in a ship ment of 2,000 boxes of powder and heavy cargo of mixed merchandise.
 Enroute south the steamer will pick up a heavy shipment of copper at Anyox and contin- ue the run with the heaviest load any boat has carried from this section within the past two years. It is reported that in- crease of business from this district resulting from the pres ent revival of mining may ne- cessitate the recommissioning of the steamer Griffco to meet haulage demands.

WHEELER PLEADS FOR
 FREE COINAGE SILVER

Declaring that the present naturalization of silver does not mean much and that the nation is facing the alternative of free coinage of silver or great imitation, Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana, in a radio address from Spokane Sunday evening, delivered a strong urge for further moves toward complete remonetiz- ation of the white metal.
 Wheeler asserted that if sil- yer is remonetized it would prevent Chinese and Japanese manufacturers from dumping their products in the United States despite tariff walls and asserted that liberal use of sill yer as a money base would aid employment b 1t remonetiz- ation would protect American markets in South America and throughout the world.

Reports from the Cantu prop erty reaching town Friday in- dicate a possible change in the downward trend of the ore which the Consolidated Mining and Smelling Company is seek ing to contact some 400 feet below the surface by diamond drilling.
 The initial hole was in 7O4 feet at that time but had not encountered the zone, which was expected to be between 500 and 700 feet in the hil, ac- cording to the reports.
 It is understood that the bore is to be extended to 800 feet if necessary to reach the ore body.

Consolidated Very Active
 On Big Missouri Holdings

Reports from the Big Miss ouri disclose that the Consoli- dated Mining and Smelling Go. is very actively engaged on preparations for driving the projected new low level tunnel from the adjoining Day group.
 A camp has been established on the Day property and a 16-horse packtrain is steadily employed taking supplies and materials from the main camp on the east side of the Big Missouri ridge to the west slope.
 A line of snow shed has also been started which will later connect the upper or Province tunnel, now being extended through the ridge, with the new tunnel, the portal of which will be some 600 feet farther down the east slope of Salmon valley. A crew of 25 men is employed in grading the route for the snowshed and erecting the framework. A small com preSsor has been taken to the new camp, probably for use in facing up for the new tunnel.
 The extension of the Prov ince tunnel through the ridge will not be completed for 6 or 8 weeks, according to reports.
 The upraise from the Prov ince tunnel to the surface, which will be in the neighbor- hood of TOO feet in length, is also being continued at full speed.
 Recent visitors at the proper ty report that it presents a scene of great activity and demonstrates in most effective manner the progressive meth ods of the big Canadian mining company in carrying on its op- erationS.

UNITED EMPIRE TUNNEL REPORTED TO HAVE
 REACHED OBJECTIVE

Reports were circulated in Stewart Thursday evening to the effect that the long cross cut tunnel on the United En- pire property had reached its objective Thursday afternoon, after almost year of continu- ous driving.
 Beyond that the tunnel was said to have penetrated the ore zone a distance of three feet and disclosed ore of the same character as found in the sur. face ore exposures, no details cf the alleged strike could be obtained.
 Efforts to secure official con- firmation of the rumors were unavailing, Reports from Stew art Friday indicated that the management had declined to make statement regarding their verity up to that time.
 However, it appears from various significant. evidences that the rumors are in all prob ability correct.
 Something over 1000 feet of tunnel has been driven to reach the vein, which is one of a ser ies which yield high gold and silver values in surface assays.
 The tunnel has been driven on a plane which would cut the vein at depth of but 60 feet. This was necessary in or der to escape snowslides which render closer approach to the ere zone extremely hazardous in winter. However, from this point onward a depth of almost foot for foot may be obtained, towing to the sharp upward pitch of the zone, with an ul- timate depth of 1000 feet in prospect.
 With a 5,500-fo'ot, 120 ton capacity aerial tramway now in operation, the company is in position to commence inn mediate and economical hand Icing of all ore extracted.
 Final confirmation of the re- ported strike is being awaited with keen interest on both sides of the boundary line, as the success of the operation will not only be a tremendous boost for the whole Portland Canal district but also provide a large local payroll and result ant prosperity for the camp.
