Weekly Newspapers Proven Great
Institutions Of Democracy
Copyright 1912

OLYMPIA, Sept. "a study Of
the weekly newspapers of the state
during the primary campaign just
closed is sufficient to give everyone
a feeling of security in a world gone
mad.
The manner in which the candi-
dates turned to these weekly papers
during this campaign in addition to
the requests from many depart
ments of the federal government for
space is proof of the high esteem
in which the weekly press is held.
He believe this confidence is amply
justified, and we know of at least
one group of business people who
have satisfactory proof that the
weekly press is much more effective
in reaching the people than daily
papers have proven to be for their
purpose.
The absolute freedom of express
sion On the part of the weekly pub
Usher is accepted at it's face value
by the readers who are not SO sure
that some other mediums are not at
least influenced by advertising &C
counts Whether this suspicion is
justified may or may not be true,
but the immediate result is that the
weekly publishers are accepted into
the homes and hearts of the people
and we believe them to be one of
the nation

Survey Reveals Most Candidates
Favor 40 Mill Limitation

Now that the primary is past and
the smoke Of ifeSAtiev4s eiearsnga away
it is a good time to take sober
look at some of the facts. At the
1871 session of the legislature an
attempt was made to, have the 40-
mill tax Limitation submitted to the
people as constitutional amend
ment. Although the measure has
been repeatedly passed by the voters
the legislature did not see ttt to
submit ii at that time as an amend
ment to the constitution. This year
the Washington Association ot Real
tors contacted every candidate FOR
the legislature on both tickets ask
ing for an expression on this mat
ter, and we are told that more than
IS per cent IF the candidates went
on record as being Favorable 10
such an amendment. No doubt thls
measure will be introduced ard pass
ed by the 1943 legislature without
much controversy.

DeIuge of Rubber EormuIoe
Pours From Assorted Brains
Few Hot Methods Found Among Thousands;
Problem Now Is Building Manufacturing PIonts

plete detail. This Is only ordinary
common sense. Anybody can sub
NIT a sample Of rubber, cut of an
old tire, and claim he made 1t In the
laboratory.
Yet many inventors are unwilling
to accept this viewpoint and insist
that Government officials will steal
their ideas.
Lack Manufacture Facilities.
The viewpoint Of the inventors
council as outlined by one Of its
officials, Is typical Of most Of the
Government bureaus concerned with
rubber:
Among the thousands of ideas
already on hand there are many
which are excellent and practical.
There are at least five or six
which are ahead Of all the others,
which have been thoroughly tested
thousands of times, for which the
general formulas are well known.
In order to manufacture any of
them on q worthwhile scale, a
gigantic industry must be built from
the ground up. This is one of the
biggest jobs of the war. 1t requires
vital materials such as steel Fac
tories and machines cannot be built
overnight. They are being built
now.
AS to which is the best and cheap
est of these five or six formulae.
some of the worlds foremost rubber
experts honestly disagree. The
problem is one of the most complex,
industrially and chemically, ever
faced. 1t is alleged that the pro-
gram already has been delayed by
disputes of specialists as to which
is the most practical. If any other
plans are introduced, it will only
cause further confusion.
At any time somebody may find
a means of making a better syn
thetic rubber cheaper than is pos
sible by any means now known.
There is no disposition to discourage
anybody from trying.
But no such scheme can
be accepted overnight. Extensive,
time consuming chemical tests will
be made on any formula that seems
highly promising. After this, if it
seems worthwhile, pilot plant may
be built to test the process in actual
operation.
Mhenwhile, it Is considered best
to go ahead with proven and prac-
tical methods, for the services need
rubber now-not after the war.

Senate Unit Approves
R. &c. Aid 10 Firms
Squeezed by Prices
Authority for Subsidies
Put in Bill to Boost
Funds by 5 Billion
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Members of the Senate Banking
Committee disclosed today they had
recommended that the Reconstruc-
ton Finance Corp. be empowered to
subsidize businesses that might be
caught in squeeze" between price
ceilings and rising costs.
Committeeman said they had in
corporated such authority in legisla-
ton which they approved yesterday
to increase the r. F. C.'s borrowing
power by $4,000, 100000.
New Powers Granted.
Under the amendment, the r. F.
G. would be authorized at the re-
quest of the price administrator and
with the approval of the Secretary
Of Commerce to:
Make payments in conjunction
with the production, procurement,
processing, servicing, or distribution
Of any article or commodity for the
purpose of stimulating production
or holding down prices" and to
purchase, acquire, carry, sell, or
otherwise deal in any article or
commodity"
The agency would be granted spe-
cif1c authority to sell at a loss.
Committee Chairman Wagner said
the authority was sought by the
administrator in order to maintain
distribution Of certain commodities
where costs raight rise too high to
permit profit under ceiling prices.
For example, he said, lack of
barges would make it necessary to
transport large amounts of coal to
New England by rail at a much
higher cost, so that under the CELL
ing prices unless relief were pro-
vided dealers would be forced to alb
sorb the higher cost, as would manu-
facturers depending on coal for
power in competition with indus
tries In other regions.
R.F. C. to Pay Difference.
Under the proposed authority,
Wagner said, the r. F. c. could pay
the difference in transportation
cost, thereby spreading the increase
over the entire nation instead of a
single section and avoiding hard
ship on consumers.
Senator OMahoney, Democrat, Of
Wyoming contended the proposal
showed the need for fixing ceilings
on all costs instead of using piece

Confidence Is Voted
In Prime Minister by
Caucus in Canada
Resolution Adopted After
II Liberals Refuse
To Attend Meeting
By the Associated Press.
VIVA 49,

By the ASsociated PreSs-
OTTAWA, May 13.-Organized
last-ditch opposition to Prime Min
lister w. L. Mackenzie Kings COM
pulsory military service policy ap-
peared last night to be confined to
IL Quebec Liberals and perhaps sew
eral independent members Of the
House Of Commons.
The II Quebec Liberals absented
themselves from a Liberal caucus
at which a resolution OF unbound
ed" confidence in Mr.. King was
adopted unanimously.
But many who attended the cau-
Gus previously had adopted a Liberal
party resolution approving the res
ignation Of Transport Minister p.
j. A. Cardin in protest to the Prime
Minister'S introduction Of q bill
which would amend the National
Resources Mobilization Act to open
the way for unlimited conscription.
Answers Questions.
The reason for their apparent
change Of attitude doubtless was
inspired by the Prime Minister
himself who answered exhaustive
questions about the Governments
plans on the issue before the resolu-
ton was voted.
One informed source said Mr..
King had assured the Quebec Lib
erals that unlimited CONSUMPTION
would not be necessary for some
time.
80 far as I am concerned" said
Mr.. King on leaving the meeting, "it
couldn't have been a better caucus. y
The bill probably won't come up
for debate for q fortnight and the
Conservatives only objection Is that
1t doesn't call for immediate unl1m-
tied service. The Cooperative Com
monwealth Federation members
then probably will demand that the
measure include conscription OF
wealth and industry.
Refuse to Attend Session.
The IL Quebec Liberals who re-
fused to attend yesterdays session
are Maxine Raymond, Jean Fran
co.'s Pouliot, Edouard Lacroix, Pierre
Gauthier, Alphida Crete, Charles
Parent, Maurice Bourget, L. p. Ii
zotte, Lionel Bertrand, Wilfrid La
croix and Emmanuel d'Anjou.
Quebec was the only Canadian
province to return q popular vote
against the proposal to permit con-
scription for overseas in the recent
plebiscite on the question Of wheth-
er to release Mr.. King from previous
