Uniform Rates Favored
At Bonneville Hearing

Most of the citizens of the north
west who appeared at the recent
Bonneville power hearings favor a
uniform rate for electricity. That
is the finding of j. D. Ross, adj
ministrator of the project, who has
just summarized the views present.
ed at the first public rate confer
ence ever held in this country.
Ross found that the great MAJ
jority of consumers who spoke at
the hearings wanted him to fix the
resale rates of the private COM
panies. 1--WE are studying such a
system of maximum rates." the adj
Yninistrator said "and we are now
compiling the opinions submitted
in answer to our printed question
mares. We want to learn the views
of everyone before we reach any
decision"
For public power districts there
seemed to be a preference for set
ting formula by which costs
would first be paid. SURPRISES would
then be used to reduce retail
charges and to increase consunp-
ton. This is the system now en-
ployed by the Ontario Hydroelec>
trio Commission which sells power
to scores of Canadian municipality
owned system.
Few speakers advocated zone
rates with costs rising with the
distance from the dam. "The ma
jority wanted the same price at
the gates of every agency, public
or private" Ross said. "This was
true at Yakima and Portland-the
cities closest to the dam-as we'll
as at the cities farther away. n
few were against anything being
done with the current except to
supply heavy industries at the dam.
But the great mass of people want
ed everyone to be given chance
to use the power from Bonneville.
The rate policies established at
Bonneville will have a far-reach-
ing effect, Ross pointed out. "The
steps taken now may affect vitality
Grand Coulee dam and any future
plants on the Snake river in Idaho.
SO we are moving along carefully
and comforting with the people in
those areas"
At the rate hearings it was gen.
orally agreed that public power
districts should pay a fair share of
the taxes. The maximum amount
suggested was 10 per cent of the
gross income. "While normal tax
might be considered proper" Ross
said, ut is Objectionable to make
cities or counties tax-free at the
expense of light and power, as 81
eastern cities are now doing"
Bonneville's first major transmits
sion system, 100000 volt twin cir
cult to connect the dam with Van
couver and Portland, is under way
the first field crows for final sur
vey of the backbone line" of the
the federal power system having
been sent out. The line will run
from Bonneville westward along
the Washington short to Vancou
yer. From there one line will go
southwark into Oregon and one
northward toward Kelso and Grays
Harbor
Surveys of the line which will
run eastward toward The Dalles
will be started very soon, Admin
istrator Ross states.

Chapter Eleven
THE ERMINE KINGDOM,


Hulda was so surprised when she
started down into the ermine king
dom. Their steps were just like ours,
but they were so very tiny and they
kept going down, down into the
ground. Her friend, the ermine, hur-
ried ahead of her. Finally they came
to pretty little gate woven together
from tiny tree roots. The ermine
swung open the gate and there they
were in a big room. Over in one
corner was wooden table with tiny
chairs around it for the whole er-
mine family.
But, but" Stammered Hulda
looking across the room because
there was Mrs. Ermine in a white
apron combing out the coats of all
the little ermine children
II know" said Mr.. Ermine, you're
surprised because Mrs. Ermine is not
sick as I said. But that wicked Queen
about whom we warned you has
come to Toyland, and we wanted to
get you to safe place so fast that
there was no time to tell you the
whole story"
"Queen?" said Hulda. "Who is
she?" You see, Hulda had forgot
ten the Queen, because she ate the
blueberry of forgetfulness.
shes a very mean Queen from
a long way off," said Mr.. Ermine.
you stay here til we find out
what she wants. If you'll excuse me
I'll rush pustairs and see what is

happening" So he whisked off again
In front of the Toyshop door he
saw funny sight. Santa was still
trying to pull the mean Queen from
the snow drift into which she had
pitched head first when her horse
stumbled. Santa tugged and tugged
until the mean Queens angry face
finally came out of the snow. She
jumped to her feet and shouted,
Men! Clean 'em up" But she Ger
tainly had surprise. There wasn't
one of her soldiers there. You and
know they were all sleeping in the
woods along the way they had
marched through the woods.
We'll, I declare" said the Queen
quite crestfallen. She looked about
her at Santa and Mrs. Santa, and
the fairies and the toys who were
all standing silently and looking
back at her.
Where is this?" the Queen finally
exploded.
This is Toyland," said Santa,
"and you are welcome if you make
no trouble. But I must warn you
that have very good friends among
the fairies"
"Humph!" said the mean Queen.
Fairies! I have an army. That is,
1 did have an army. And I'll Ger
tainly fix them. If you'll excuse me
I'll go and hunt them" She walked
off without another word.
In half an hour she was back
pounding on the Toyshop door and
shouting, II found the lazy OATS.
They're all sleeping in the woods.
Give me some rope. I'll tie them up"
But don't think we have any
rope" said Santa.
Then up stepped Mr.. Ermine who
had been listening. He had a very
good plan but he didn't tell the
Queen. He just said, I'VE can get
you all the rope you want"
you! Humph! Fine kind of rope
you'll get" said the mean Queen
very ungraciously. But she sat down
to wait. The ermine whisked back to
his house and when he got there he
shouted: Quick, Hulda. Take your
magic needle and make some rope.
The mean Queen wants to tie up her
army for punishment. Ha, ha, ha,"
he shouted with laughter. =
What can be so funny?" asked
Mrs. Ermine.
You'll see," laughed Mr.. Ermine.
Then he went over to one of the
walls and tapped on it, saying,
Please, Oaks, push down some of
your fine, wiry roots and let us use
them" And suddenly from the wall
little, white tendrils of oak roots
began to show. They stuck out a
little, then more, until there we're
big coils of them on the floor. Hulda
took them, threaded them into her
magic needle and spun out a fine,
strong rope. She spun and spun, and
as she finished each yard of rope
the ermine family pushed it up the
stairs and out to the mean Queen
who still sat in front of the Toy
shop. Yards and yards of it came
until there was almost half a mile
of rope.
"Well, I declare" said the Queen.
That's enough. Humph! Pretty good
work." she mumbled and then she
started off down the road to find
her soldiers. She was making a very
stupid mistake about which we'll tell
you tomorrow.

Bruin TwizzIers
BY PROF. ]. ID. FLINT,

A very successful lawyer main
tanned homes in two parts of the
country. In order to have any time
in both of them he had a standing
arrangement with the pilot of a
privately owned airplane to fly him
from one to the other for 5000 per
round trip. One day just before
departing for his other home the
lawyer had a telephone call from
an acquaintance who wanted to fly
to a point halfway from the point
of departure to the destination. He
offered to pay the proportionate
amount of the expense. AS it turned
out the lawyer picked him up again
on the return trip. What should
the acquaintance have paid to be
correct?

SUBSTANCE THEME
IN SCIENCE CHURCHES

Substance" was the subject of
the lcsSon-sermon in all Christian
Science churches and societies on
Sunday.
The golden text was from Matt.
5:6-"BleSScd are they which do
hunger and thirst after righteous
mes: for they shall be filed
Among the citations which com
priScd the lcsSon-Sermon was the
following from the Bible: "Now
faith is the substance of things
hoped for, the evidence Of things
not seen. Through faith we I'M
derstand that the worlds were
framed by the word of God, so
that things which are seen were
not made OF things which do APP
pear. (Heb. ll:1,3)
The lesson-sermon also included
the following passage from the
Christian Science textbook, "Sci-
ence and Health with Key to the
Scriptures. by Mary Baker Eddy.
GAS God is substance and man IS
the divine ima"e and likeness
man should wish for. and in re.
alitv has, only the substance OF
good. the substance of Spirit, not
matter. The belief that man has
any other substance, or mind: IS
not spiritual and breaks the First
Commandment. Thou shalt have
one God. one Mind.

ARTHUR, KING

DIES IN SLEEP
Gastric AiIment of Long
Standing Fatal for
Major-General

LONDON, Sept. -. -(UP) --
II. X. II. Prince Arthur Of Con-
naught, So, major-grneraI in the
British army and cousin Of King
George VI and the Duke Of Wind
Sor, died in his sleep at $3.50 Il.
m. today Of Il gastric alIment from
which he had suffered for some
time.
The prince and the Duke Of
Windsor, apart Oom being close
relatives. were the closest of
friends and brother MaSonS.
Buckingham palace sources told
the United Press there WAS Il
strong possibility the duke would
make his first visit to England
since he abdicatcd the throne, t"
attend the funeral of his cousin.
These sources said the duke un-
doubtedly will wish to attend and
that the royal family would wish
it or at least would put no oDSta-
clcs in the way. The prince Spon-
sored the then Prince of Wales
when ne entered the MaSonS. The
Duke Of Windsor is said to have
been more attached to the Prince
of Connaught than to any other
relatives outside his immediate
family and he is expected to make
strong bid to attend the funeral.
The chief obstacle would be the
possible attitude Of the govern
ment, fearful that such a visit
might undo all the careful build
up which has been given the king
and queen since the abdiCation.
News Of the princes death was
telephoned immediately to the
king and queen at BalmOral Cas-
tie, Scotland, to the Duke Of Con-
naught, the Earl Of MacDuff, and
to all members Of the royal fam
lily, including the Duke of Wind
