To Mrs. Shipley the Passport Division Has
Romance and Tragedy Famous Treaty
Portraits of Webster and Ashburton.

which resulted in the discovery of the
old catalogue.
The Treaty Portraits
By Healy.
These two portraits are known as
the treaty portraits" and were painted
in conmemoration of the Webster
Ashburton treaty defining the north
eastern boundry of the United States.
The one of Lord Ashburton was
painted in l843 and the one of MIR.
Webster in 1848. They are beautiful
examples Of Healy at his best. In
his happiest mood, when his brush
worked rapidly and the feelings, as
pirations and sentiments of the sitter
seemed to guide his hand, the colors
became an animated whole. The
framing of the two portraits is alike;
the figures seated in armchairs facing
each other, the bits of landscape in
the background and the touch of color
in the upholstery and draperies are
charming. Mr.. WebSter's handsome
face and wonderful, deep-set eyes
show a feeling of satisfaction at the
accomplishment Of his task. In the
portrait of Lord Ashburton a copy of
the treaty lies on the table before
him, showing the red seals of the
United States and Canada. In this
likeness the hands are especially
noticeable for their strength and the
beauty of the drawing.

Disiuusioned by sporadic appoint
ment to jobs and positions of rea-
sonable Importance, most of
which are under the relief set-up,
by the present administration,
they are elamoring to guide the
Ship of State again into the whirl
pool of civic strife. where sound
ecoonmic principles are torn from
their foundations and turned topsy
turvy, where just and logical rea-
soning Is supplanted with wierd
contortion of sophistry, where the
Constitution of the United States
is regarded as an antiquated lit
erary document, where the funda-
mental rights of individual liberty
is sought to be replaced by feder-
allied RECOMMENDATION, where State
sovereignty is to again retire in
favor of a centralized government.

cruel treatment, viii again be the
guiding influence of Government.
There exists no chapter in the
history of the progress of this
great United States where it can
be pointed out that the Negro has
made any material progress under
a Democratic administration
Furthermore, there exists no
chapter in the history of the I'm

discrimination and race riots are
more prevalent than during these
periods of Democratic administra-
ton.

CAMPAIGN To Elect Republican Candidates To Office
Political Parties
To Be Quizzed

The Republican and Democratic
Central Committees have agreed
to send a spokesman to tell their
parties stand on peace at a meet
ing sponsored BY the American
League Against War and Fascism.
The meeting is to be held in the
Masonic Temple on Mondas even-

In addition, Fred J. Wettrick,
Republican candidate for Congress
and Warren Magnuson, Democra-
tic candidate for the same office,
win explain the peace and neutral

elected to the next Congress. Min
or parties have also been invited
TO send one representative each to
state their position on war. The

The American Leegue Against
War and Fascism has sent a
questionable to the political par
ties and candidates which viii act
as a guide in their answers. and
which win be distributed to the
audience.
The first item in the question:
naire is whether the preservation
Of peace is of vital, immediate inn
portance. Certain members of the
school board took the position,
when requested for the use Of the
Broadway High School auditorium
that everyone is opposed to war
and fascism, therefore discussion
is pointless. N. p. Atkinson, the
League Chairman, challenged the
members to compare their views
on the amount of war appropria-
tons necessary in peace time with
the Leagues. He said that peace
is not a hay, far distant ideal. but
that it will take all the efforts OF
peace-loving people throughout the
world to maintain peace.

Initiatives And
Amendments
Are Explained
By wiIIiam J. Hyatt

When the voters Of this state
go to the polls November B. they
win commit a gross injustice if
they are Indifferent to the initia-
tives and amendments appearing
on the ballot It is imperative that
these measures be thoroughly con-
sidered and voted on intelligently
Serious harm may result to the
citizens of this state, fantastic and
unavoidable measures may be
passed and stesg ering tax burdens
to the ultimate cost of hundreds
of dollars may be imposed, if sound
thinking voters fail to act on the
issues.
The following Is brief synop-
sis which has been prepared by
the Community Tax Bureau thus
clearly exposing the vicious and
confiscatory nature of these mea-
sures.
No. IOl, The Civil Service Bill
This measure is sponsored by
Civil Service Employees Assoeia-
ton. 1t places all employees, ex-
eept elective and appointive offic-
ers of the state, and every county,
city, port district school district
park district and public library,
under the cd Service system 1t
sets up state and county salaried
commissions to administer it, at
the expense of the taxpayers.
While containing some elements
of merit, by its terms. it is open
to attck on the grounds, first, that
it creates a powerful political ma
chine for the party in office; Sc
cond, it perpetuates in office, by
Sec. 6, therein, all employees hold
ing jobs at the date the law be-
comes effective without further
examination of qualification, third,
it is loosely drawn and will require
further legislation to make it OPP
erative; fourth, it should be made
