MORE TROUBLE

And while Rome burns, an OHIO
governor argues with the national
government, the municipalities OF
Ohio argue with the governor and
the needy of the state hope Tor a
settlement before they starve. Lead
ing cities of this mid-western state
ask for a meeting of the legisla-
ture to come to an agreement where
by the state can take care OF It's
own. The state has balanced It's
budget and drastic relief means
would unbalance it. Hot words are
passed around, many Of them In
spired by politics rather than SYM
pathy and concern for the hungry.
The editorial pages of the country
comment and the Ohio winter pro-
ceeds to bear down. This condition
is not confined to just one state for
others face an identical issue. VIII
the others be able to reach more
peaceful settlement by profiting
from the case of Ohio? ,

One of the problems of the Har-
vey restaurant system, that pro-
vided a chain of eating houses
along the Santa Fe railroad system,
was the fact that so many of the
young women quit the service each
year and got married. The Harvey
system selected its young women
very carefully and they were in
much demand as homemakers. The
same situation faces the companies
operating air travel routes in regard
to their hostesses. These young
women are selected with painstak-
ing care and many of them each
year marry employees of the air
ports, pilots and even passengers on
the planes they serve. One company
reports the loss of 800 such hostesses
by marriage in one year. An air
plane hostess must be a certain
height and weight and age, must
wear glasses and must be a regis
tered nurse.

Due to the rapid increase in at
tendance in the public schools the
board had found it necessary to
open new grade to be known as

been secured as a place to hold
school temporarily for the new grade
and it was to be ready for use by
January 10.
Upon bids of so qualified city
voters and IA residents of the dis
trict, the city council was making
preparation for a special election
to extend the city limits to por-
ton of Moores, Beach and Weisel
additions and the high school
building.

Some days the responsible car
drivers are going to rise UP and de-
mand a law requiring every car
driver to establish financial respon-
sibility by means Of indemnity in
surance. Every driver of car who
takes pride in its appearance has
had the experience of having the
driver of a delapidated jallopy side
swipe him or crumple a fender and
adjust the damage by saying he Is
sorry he has no money and can't
pay for the repair. The matter Is
made even worse through the fact
that many drivers of cars of this
type, feeling they have nothing to
lose, drive with objectionable care
lessness, and with complete disre-
gard of consequences to their fell
low motorists.

The varied opinions of what to
do about the sad case of Finland
brings forth again the incident OF
1888 when this country suggested
reducing the war debt owed to us
by Finland. On the grounds that
this is a just and honest debt"
Finland declined to have the pay
ment reduced. Our sympathy goes
out to this nation. It is not neces-
sary to involve ourselves in a war
in order to help the Firms. One way
of showing our respect for her in
tegrity and our sorrow for her ma
ligned people, is through gifts to
the American Red Cross, who have
asked for contributions. Every one
in Kennewick who desire to give as
sistance to this Scandinavian coun-
try can do so through this medium,
a very worthy cause in any time OF
need.

The invasion of Finland by Russia
constitutes the most ruthless and in
defensible aggression of modern
times. Words are completely lack
ing to properly convey the condem-
nation everyone feels toward Russia
for this ruthless act. Nothing that
has happened in Europe has stirred
up quite the universal indignation
and restraint that this cowardly
act of Russia has aroused.

ing with interest the hearing being
conducted into the workings of the
National Labor Relations Board.
Some day some one is going to dis
cover that the way to bring normal
conditions back in this country is
to cease badgering business. The
Wagner Act, the Wage-Hour law
and the friendly attitude toward
radical labor leaders have been the
things that have contributed most
largely to the "slow down" in the re-

that wealth and power will be di-

Russia is the outstanding example

there less distribution of power, and

wealth than is found in Russia.

The man who can preserve neu-
trail spirit in thought and deed in
the matter of the invasion of Fin
land by Russia does not live in
America. There is, in this country,
not only the kindred feeling that
one democracy has for another de-
mocracy, but there is also genuine
respect for the little country who,
surrounded with other nations who
chose to repudiate their war debt
has met every payment on the date
it is due. That spirit, whenever it
is found, deserves to be protected
and defended.
