Protective
lEditorial)

Netoing of the recent leg
islature's Narrows bridge
bill means nothing insofar
as planned replacement Of
the span is concerned.
The bill was meaningless.
except as a statement of
policy. 1t appropriated no
money, it gave the Toll
Bridge authority no power
it did not already possess,
and it merely re-stated a
policy already adopted.
The bill, as passed, di-
rected the authority to re
construct Tacoma Narrows
bridge"
Webster's unabridged de-
fines the word recon-
struct' rs meaning 30 con-
struct again; 10 rebuild.
The governor was fearful
this policy declaration
might be used to the states
detriment in coming litiga-
ton over insurance claims
arising from collapse of the
original span last Novem-
Der.
Ii would be undesir-
able for the insurance
companies, fighting 10
avoid payment of all
but a minor share of
the states S5,200.000
total-loss claim, TO be
able TO point to a law
which declared the
state intended to "re-
construct" the bridge
as il was.
This the Toll Bridge
authority does not in
tend to do. IL does
seek to build a safer
bridge, which, obvious
ly, must be of different
design and probably
larger.
But, first, the authority
must attempt to collect the
insurance money due the
state for the faulty span
which fell. 1t must pre-
pare to sustain its total
loss claim.
Therefore, AS the gov
ernor In his veto message
said:
Reconstruction Of the
old bridge and utilization
of any of the remaining
parts of that bridge may
not be advisable and this
bill only complicates
the problem of dealing Nth
the claims arising out of
the insurance contracts.

NEW YORK. Dec. l7.-Nervous
selling upset the stock markets bal
ance today and losses in the indus
trial leaders ran from fractions to
two or more points
While the freer offerings were at
tributed in part to fears over the
fate of Singapore and other British
strongholds in the Far East under
japanese attack, the pressure at no
time was comparable to that which
weighed so heavily upon list in the
early days of last week. Transac-
lions totaled about 100000 shares.
SteelS, motors, rubbers and air
crafts led the retreat. Numerous
issues recorded new lows for the
year. Final prices we're around the
bottoms.
American Telephone dropped near
" 5 points to a l94l low. Other
stocks reaching low ground for
year or more included General
Motors, Chrysler, United States Rub
Der, Goodyear, Montgomery Ward,
Sears Roebuck and American Can.
Among other losers were Douglas
Aircraft. United States Steel, Beth
lehem. Westinghouse and Du Pont.
American Sugar was an isolated
