PULSE OF THE PUBLIC

men of the nation want to de-
stroy their own customers by
depriving them of the means TO
buy the national production of
goods and services? They can
not get along without them. The
laborers and farmers must al
ways be paid enough income for
their work so they can buy the
goods produced or business is
destroyed. You can increase
their buying power by reducing
the prices of goods providing in
comes of the customers do not

is also good for the employers.
What is bad for the workers is
also bad for capital. Again l
say ignorance has enslaved the

The inside story of the shearing
casts a strange light on the
presidents treatment of his
friends and most devout touters.
Few officials in the New Deal
have been so publicly Inundated
and hurt as Ickes was in the
timing of the presidential pro-
posal for establishment of a self
liquidsting program. On the
very day that Ickes was appear
ing before a senate committee
on behalf of the. Starnes $780,
900 900 PWA hill--which he ex-
pected to supervise - Roosevelt
cast that scheme into the scrap
heap with his more grandiose
program. Then he passed over
Iches and named John M. Car
mody as the spending poobah.
Nor has he yet sent letter of
thanks TO the cabinet member
for the way he handled ten bill
lions of PWA money in the last
six years. 1t seems TO Ickes
friends as il the president de-
liberately served notice that the
secretary is no longer member
of the inner circle. Harold was
so bitter that he failed to attend
the next cabinet meeting.
Remarked General Hugh john

CONTRAST - Our topnotch
naval experts have just enjoyed
a closeup view of British inept-
tude in preparing for the next
war. They saw similar samples
of John Bulls laundering 20
years ago, but they had hoped
that our old ally had improved
during that period and under the
threat of a new conflict.
When the navy's diving bell
proved its efficiency by rescuing
SO men from the submarine
Squalls, naval experts of all ma
tons expressed amazement. Our
government Immediately inform
ed them that the plans of the
rescue chamber would be made
available without cost II was
gesture designed TO improve
relations with friendly and semi
hostile powers. France immedi-
ately asked for a set of blue
prints. and they were forwarded
by return mail. So far. and de-
spite the disaster to the British
submarine Thetis, London has
not yet asked for the papers.
Unspoken explanation Is that
the British refuse TO admit our
superiority on or under the sea.
Incidentally, the nayy's pri-
vate files disclose that both the
diving bell and the lung were
the achievements OF Herbert
Hoover's administration. With
the exception OF few improve
ments. they were in operation
in early 1931-the direct result
of the Ssh and S-4 catastrophes.

element was that giving women
the righ, 10 vote would make
them mannish and possibly give
some Of them the desire to
emulate man. even to the extent
Of adopting some of his vices.
A leading anti-suffragist IN a
public address went so far as to
predict that if women were given
the vote it would only be a mat
ter of time before they would
be seen in the bar rooms
Fifty years ago it was heresy
to even think of a respectable
women being seen at public
bar. 1t wasn't done.
Even the bartnders resent
ed the idea. And many Of them
are still that old fashioned TO
think that woman Is made 81
little finer clay than man
and she should not degrade
herself by drinking at a public
bar. II she must drink let
her do n in the privacy Of her
home. These thoughts were
expressed the other day by the
bartender of n popular down.
town drinking place.
Another issue on which ms
delegates were divided was the
location of the state capital. A
good many voters on the east
side had come to the conclusion
that Olympia was too far from
the center of population. Seat
tie wanted 1t but there was the
same objection. Everett and
Walla Walla were eliminated for
the same reason.
Ellensburg seemed to he the
logical place and the citizens
of that community began
vigorous campaign to get the
capital. One enterprising and
optimistic citizen went so far
as to build a mansion for the
governor adjoining a tract
chosen for the state buildings.
How Olympia kept the capital
is one of the interesting later
developments.
With the convention delegates
there also came to Olympia
great horde of lobbyists. One
of the reporters referred to their
coming in these words.
1.-THE lobby is here. You can
single out the lobbyist in any
crowd. His clothes are cut after
the latest fashion and of the
best material. He usually wears
a high silk tile. His manners
are elegant; his cigars are of the
best. He is always affable and
smiling and is one of the easiest
of mortals to approach. That
sort of man represents the in
terests of railroads and other
big corporations"
Other lobbyists represented the
w. c. T. L., the women uffrage
organizations and the high and
low tax advocates. They filled
the hotels and lodging houses
and formed about rs per cent of
the gallery watching the organ
ization of the convention.
