opponent to move that Confucius de-
vised and wrote his renown teachings.
In his diary he spoke frequently of
playing checkers with Wong Foo. The
Chinese are slow deliberate race,
and Wong Foo, the greatest of Check
er players, was no exception. 1t is
written that at one time it took an
hour to make a move. When Wong
Foo played with six people it took q
week to finish the game, for trying to
foresee all moves that six people
could make and take advantage of
each one required great concentration.
The reason for this undue length of
time was his theory of the game which
he was endeavoring to put into prac-
tice: "The Foo-er moves the better. :"
or elf one makes Foo move he can It
go far Wong.''

URGES INDUSTRY
BE TOLD POWER PROFITS

Industries will not come to Wash
ington and Oregon until they are
conscious of the three great advan-
tages of the Columbia basin: cheap
power, deep water transportation and
rich natural resources.
Ivan Bloch, chief OF Bonneville 3
market development section, declared
that low-ccst hydroelectric power in
itself was not sufficient to attract
major capital investments. Bloch re.
turned last week from the national
convention of the Electrochemica
Society, where he spoke to industrial
engineers on profits w ne made in
electrochemical and metallurgical en-
terprises in the Northwest
Industries cannot be established
here unless certain points, in addition
to power, are made known. One refers
to- markets; one refers to natural re-
sources, and one refers to the, posi-
bilities Of shipping processed mater
ials easily and at low COST
Bloch related his experiences at the
EleGtrochemical Society convention in
Ohio, pointing out that most manu-
facturers ale unaware Of the potential
profits that can be made from utiliza
ton of the resources, power and
waterways Of Washington, Oregon and
Idaho. "The Northwest has been re-
garded so long as supply of raw
material, such as lumber, grain and
minerals, and as an outdoor play
ground, that the people of the East
are not acquainted with the possibili
ties of diversified Industrial develop.

Indust- ial development will depend
the Bonneville engineer said, on local
and national realization of the inner
ent natural advantages of the Colum-
hia basin. cit is primarily the job of
the people of the region to find out
what the facts are: what raw mater
ials they have, existing and potential
markets, and their relation to power
and transportation.

CREWS Tells
AIM OF COOP
Movement is Bulwark Against
Dictatorship, Speaker Tells
Ely Audience.

1.-The cooperative movement is bull
wark against dictatorship, wall be-
tween the dictatorial and democratic
forms of government, Cecil Crews, Sup
erior, said in an address given Friday
night in the Community Center audit
orium in observance of Cooperative
Month.
1.-THE cooperative is a peoples move =
ment," Mr.. Crews continued, ''and is
controlled by the people from the bot
tom up and not from the top down"
The speaker, who is educational Ill
rector of the Central Cooperative as
ISOLATION, laid considerable stress on
education in promoting the ideals of the
cooperative principle.
He contradicted the contention that
the cooperative destroyed public enter
prise, stating, rather, that it added i'm
petus to it. William Niemi, manager
of the local Coop store and president
of the newly organized Coop club, was
in charge of the meeting.
Mr.. Crews projected pictures of the
cooperative movement in Nova Scotia
depicting how people of this area had
raised themselves from poverty to COM
parative security through the coopera-
tive movement.
Cooperative marketing of the prin-
cipal product of their labors, fish
served as the backbone of the move
ment, which later grew into the coop
erative distribution of the necessities
of life and the cooperative pooling Of
economic resources.
