INDIANS FIGHT.
j. 5. OVER LAW
LOGGING
Unusual Case Will Be
Tried in Federal
Court Here Start
ing Tuesday

Lumbermen all over tn e
world will turn their atten-
ton toward a case in federal
district court here when it
gets underway Tuesday at 10
a. m. before Judge Leon K.
Yankwich of Los Angeles.
1t concerns a question which
has split opinion of the lumber
industry wide open, has been the
cause of bitter controversy among
lumbermen from Finland to the
Pacific Northwest. from the Rus
sian forests to the Maine woods.
The question:. Which Ii the
smart way to log. to cut selec-
lively or hack down every tree
In sight:
While the issue has frequently
been argued. IL has never actually
reached a court. II remained for
the Quinault Indians TO bring II
to the bar.
OBJECT TO LAW
They have named the govern
ment, two logging companies. a
logging contractor and various
officers of the Quinault reserva-
ton as defendants in an action
which seeks to enjoin government
requiring that the seiec-
tive method of logging be used
on the reservation.
The Indians want the clear-out
system, alleging that the other
method will work to their disad-
vantage financially.
The reservation composes one Of
the great timber areas of the
Olympic peninsula. Still to be
cut there are 1000, 100000 feet
of timber, spread outSover 1886, 900
acres.
This large area is broken up
into 80-acre tracts. owned by in
dividual Indians and their families.
They usually contract to sell their
timber to private logging COM
panies. Thus far only about one
fifth of the total footage OF TIM
Der has been cut.
TO DEMAND PROOF
Harvey Eastman is named as
the plaintiff in the Indians suit.
The complaint alleges that East
man represents 1872 other Indians,
but Oliver Malm. U. s. assistant
district attorney, who will lead
the defense. indicated the Indians

THE proposed three-mill tax
levy for county hospital
purposes is meeting with wide
acclaim. Endorsements of the
tax levy are being voted by
many and varied organiza-
tons. Feeling is general that
perhaps this is the best way
to solve the hospital financial
problem. Nearly everyone is
agreed that improvements are
sadly needed: that equipment
should be bought; that the
personnel should be increased.
Since the federal govern
ment and the state govern
ment cannot or will not con-
tribute money, there is but
the county government to fall
back upon. The county COM
missioners are agreed that
something should be done to
put the hospital on the ac-
credited hospital list As first
class institution. The one
way to get the funds. they
insist, is by means of a tax
levy. The levy is for the one
year only. Funds thus derived
will make the improvements
possible. Voters in March
should vote intellectually
for the levy. In this way. and
in this manner only, will most
of the hospitals problems be
solved.
TT Is welcome news that city
officials concerned are max
ing Roadway in the effort to
widen and repave those Sec
tons of Sixth avenue needed
to make proper approach to
the Narrows bridge. What
ever the financing method ar
rived at. one thing is impera-
tive: Tacoma must have a
proper and adequate approach
to the bridge upon its COM
pletion next summer. We can
not delay this matter. The
utmost speed is needed to as
sure a successful gateway to
and from the bridge.
Incidentally, action is also
needed on the proposed Broad
way and st. Helens ave. paw
ing project. Spring and sum-
mer will be upon us before
long and the improvement
proposal has gotten nowhere
as yet. 1t is high time we be-
stirred ourselves and got def
mite plans underway for this
much needed improvement.
