. Plenty Of Dynamite in Init. Isl

When such good friends Of old age pen
sions as members of the state Eagles lodge
warn that Initiative No. Isl, to be balloted
upon in November, IS so expensive that II
threatens even to kill the benefits granted
pensioners under the present law, Initia-
tive No. 14l,- then IL Is indeed time for
voters 10 give conscientious consideration
to the new proposal.
Initiative Isl, If adopted. would OF
course wipe out the present pension meas
ure, and substitute a new and enlarged
program that threatens the financial sta
bility of the state. A five percent sales
tax at least would be needed to raise funds
for the purposes outlined by proponents
Of No. Isl.
The Eagles lodge pension committee in
the course of its statement points out that
the new measure would entail burden OF
$26.000,000 more every two years, and
that residents are already taxed TO the
limit 1t is also shown by analysis that
No. 151 is general relief measure and
not one to merely fit the needs Of senior
citizens.
mo. Isl would wipe out deductions for
combined living, which would automati-
cally forfeit all federal matching money,
forcing the states taxpayers to carry the
whole load,' the Eagles committee de-
clared. It's members added that the state
today pays the highest pension to the
greatest percentage of those of 65 of any
state in the union. II pays S37.43 to as
percent of those within the age group. That
is a net cost of $1.25 per month to every
state resident.
Other individuals and groups, includ-
ing Gov. Langlie, have pointed out dangers
in Initiative Isl. The governor said in
effect that the whole system of old age
pensions would be put in jeopardy if No.
Isl were approved and feared that logi-
cally the measure was put forth with the
idea Of killing off in time all old age as
sistance.
Pamphlets issued by the secretary of
state to every voter contain arguments re-
garding Isl and should be studied with in
tense interest. These war times are diff
cult, what with tremendous federal taxes
to be imposed on everyone and other sacri-
fees being enforced without voluntarily
putting tremendous state burdens on our
shoulders. After all there is a limit to tax
alton and the publics willingness to pay.
And the pensioners are doing fairly well
under the present law.

FREEDOM EooNoMIcALLY

Editor, The Times: read os-

ident Roosevelt warned us in
1886, saying: Those who sur
viye modern warfare will stag

burden of poverty, and also amid
the threat of a broken system
and the destruction Of constitu-
tional government"
II we prove worthy OF self
government, IL stands TO reason
that we should demand the an
swer from the men who drew up
the Atlantic charter that prom
Uses us freedom of speech, free
dom of religion. freedom from
want and freedom from fear

a good many of us who are
doubtful about accomplishing
these four freedoms through this
debt system. We know that any

oYour Opinions

Now I ask. Can we lose this
war; 1t is not possible and /
don't believe there is any man,
woman or child in this blessed
country of ours that would not
stand up and battle every Jap
that attempted TO set foot on
this land.
This is war and do we under
stand what IL means? Maybe
we do, and maybe we do not.
Take the word Of one who was
in the vermin-infested trenches
in 1918. War is hell" What
will IL be now with all our

, Modern Rangers

The name Rangers" is apt for the
American version of the Commands. In
war that features use of the most ultra
modern instruments of death and destruc-
ton, We have been driven back to the
methods of stealth and man-to-man COM
bat in which Rogers Rangers outdid the
very Indians from whom they derived
their methodology.
The services of Robert Rogers back
woods militiamen were invaluable to the
Anglo-Americans during the Seven Years
war against the French in North America
They accomplished feats which no regular
troops, however skilled and courageous,
could have achieved. That is what mod
ern Rangers will do with modern enemies.

= Loose Talk

Walter Reuther Is big man now, vice
president Of the United Automobile. Air
craft and Agricultural Workers union.
Clio. lie can afford no longer to pop off,
just TO get headlines.
Reuther claims that, notwithstanding
reports that the Fisher plant at Pontiac is
five months ahead of schedule, il has pro-
duced only one gun. Unfortunately the
union leader has two Fisher plants con-
fused. One is five months ahead of sched-
ule. The other has produced only one gun.
The latter still is ahead of schedule, since
the one gun is a prototype, and the plant
is not scheduled for production until
October.
That's the sort of loose talking that is
even more to be condemned in highly
placed officials, who command news space
than in the layman to whose grouching
not even his own family pays much
attention.

. HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, SEPT. II

Good and evil aspects appear
TO balance in the horoscope FOR
this date. In the early morning
encourag cling war news may be
received.
Heart and Home: This day
should bring cheering letters
from battlefronts to parents who
miss sons and daughters now in
the service OF the nation. The
tempo OF war work will be great
" accelerated at this time when
supreme results must be assur-
ed in production and transpor-
tation. Recreation must not be
neglected as autumn days en-
courage introspection and APP
prehension. There is a good
sign for informal Inequalities
among neighbors and small
groups of friends.
Business Affairs: Astrologers
forecast difficulties affecting
trade and commerce. The in
clination to criticize government
heads Of important work will
be strong. Contradictory reports
will be disseminated and the
public will be perplexed regard
ing actual conditions affecting
commodities almost as much
needed as nbber and gasoline.
Demand for experienced indus
trialists in many political Of
fees will be insistent.
National Issues: Despite the
rude awakening OF the nation
by enemy attacks and the de-
struction Of shipping. citizens of
interior states will be accused
OF lack of full realization re-
garding war needs and dangers.
The seers warn that daily radio
and newspaper reports on bat
Ties and bombings may lose their
full effect because Of repetitions
that describe conflict in foreign
lands. Even dangers on the At
lantic and Pacific coasts may
appear too distant 10 arouse all
out efforts in the Middle West
international Affairs: Highly
aggressive war offensives will
eventually be successful for the
United Nations. The recent con-
junction Of Mercury and Mars in

been read as indicating changes
in the strategy OF the World

local authorities have heard of

some of the larger machine
shops in Tacoma which do have
war contracts and tell them
what equipment you have. They
might have some jobs they could
