. A Fighting Name

The United States navy has lost two
destroyers named Jacob Jones, but il is
still good fighting name. II is name
which brought much glory to the navy and
to officers and crews of the two destroyers.
This first Jacob Jones was sunk Dec. 6,
1917. with loss of 81. The second Jacob
Jones went down off New Jersey, Feb. %.
1912. pounded by an enemy submarine
with more than 100 sailors dying for their
country.
Few persons may know, however, that
the Jacob Jones for whom the ships were
named was quite a hero in his own right.
After giving up the study of medicine for
law, he left both professions in 1899 to
sign on as q midshpman on q naval YES
sci which fought the Barbary pirates. He
was their prisoner two years, but escaped
TO become one of the hardest hitting COM
manders in the War of 1912, capturing an
enemy ship and eventually squaring ac-
counts with the pirates.
1t would be fitting if another destroyer
were named for this fighting man to deal
out vengeance for the loss of the other
Jacob Joneses and their gallant crews

ter the cost, it is so much better to win
than to lose, that it isn't worth talking
about-except for the fact we know what
will be taken from each Americans

Secretary of the Treasury Henry Nor
genthau revealed that the rate will be
doubled for most taxpayers and there will
be many more taxpayers. He asked con-
gress to boost taxes by more than seven
and one-half billion dollars.
That won't leave much for most of us
to fling around on Injuries. But it will
give our armed forces something terrific to
toss at the axis.

. A Job 10 Do

Voters today will write the final chap
tiers in the most unusual municipal cam
paign ever held in this city.
circumstance in the believe-it-or-not
class and the first case Of that character
in the history of Tacoma was the primary
vote by which Mayor Harry p. Cain was
returned to office. He received almost
three times as many votes as the total
given his opponents.
Another circumstance which added 10
the unusual character of the election was
the reelection of Val c. Fswcett for a
fourth term as commissioner of finance
without opposition.
That is q situation with few parallels.
It's a rare case when somebody does not
want TO 20 after the other fellows office.
Most strenuous Of all the primary
battles was that waged by the l3 contest

public safety. Surviving that battle were

The results today will be final Each
OF those who win will have the privilege
Of performing an important community
service and also will take on a grave re-
sponsibility.
That is particularly true of the office
IF rouamt sinner of piIhlic safety For
quite some time there has been dssension
and confusion in the police department TO
an extent that has impaired its efficiency
and tended to weaken the confidence of
the public.
AS a whole, members of Tacoma police
department are capable. All they need is
leadership. The Times believes that either
one of the candidates who will be elected
Tuesday may be capable of providing that
leadership.
On the successful candidate also will
rest the responsibility of seeing that the
fire department is maintained at peak eff
ficiency There must be new equipment
which can be obtained through better CO.
operation with other members of the city
council. After that the fire department
needs only opportunity. Ii has been demon
strated that the men have the will to do.
Besides the ability to get along with
people, the chief requisites for a city con-
troller are honesty and a knowledge Of
accounting. The Times believes both can
didates measure up to these requirements.
Election will be largely a matter of per-
sonal choice.
