RreStuent Of NEA SerVlce
 Seattle, wash, March 24-Seattle is engulfed with the greatest t1- fux of industrial workers and their families in its history, is soaring away on all the wings of an indus trial boom and is having difficult time figuring out what to do about it.
 Rents are sky-rocketing. Apart ments or houses are not to be had. A big trailer city has been estab- lished in one quarter. Boarding houses are packing people in. What were formerly family hostels," furnishing weekly or monthly rates, now take their customers only by the day. Retail department stores sales are up 60 per cent over last year, and will certainly go higher. They have been rising constantly for months and the top obviously Is not in sight.
 All street cars having been elin- mated from the city some time ago and busses substituted, the trans portation system is entirely inade- uuate for the vastly increased pop ulation of perhaps 100000 in the area. Private cars are therefore ne- cessary to supplement the public transportation facilities, and this brings on the tire problem.
 IT'S TOUGH
 TO FIND A HOUSE
 Across the river, at Bremerton, similar conditions exist, and with all of the industrial activities to be found in this war front area every civic facility is being strained to keep up with the procession.
 So pressing is the demand for houses that suggestion was thrown out that all of the old folks living here on State old age pen- sions move to some other locality not affected by the war activities, and thus make room for active workers. There was not too much certainty as to how this idea might be received by the pensioners, but the voluntary response was ex- tremely good, ard this plan may be carried through.
 There is standing list of more than 10o0 applications for houses with the Homes Registry bureau and the thousands of new arrivals here corne from throughout the middlewest, southwest and every where. There are "Okies" and "Arkies" among them, but all are headed for the shipyards, airplane plants or other war industries.
 Meantime local and surrounding town businesses or plants, not en- gagged in war work, are being strip ned of help as this help leaves to joni the vast parade into the war work.
 If you try to translate this into dollars in payroll increases, pur- chasing power, and housing prob lens. you get dizzy. Temporary housing will be necessary to take care of large portion of the new industrial population. Under the present program the erection of some 12,000 new low-priced houses is contemplated this year. Of this number about half will be privately constructed and the other half will be put up by the government. This won't be enough.
 Tn the midst of all this industrial activity and booming, 1t may inter est Westbrook Pegler to know the details of how his old friend Dave Beck of the Teamsters' Union, had his ears slapped back no end in the municipal election held here March 10.
 Well, it seems that in the begin ming everybody was so engaged in war work that they didn't pay much 'ttention to the fact that there was

Millikin.
 The Republicans went to 1t. Beck's endorsement of Millikin just made their point. They had been saying all the time that Millikin was Beck's stooge, so they went to bat on a straight Beck issue and the Beck-Millikin ticket was beaten and Devin elected by some 10000. From which the conclusion may bo drawn that Seattle has become a little fed up on Mir. Becks and his labor sing.

once pellCCleQ, Pres. Roosevelt was Macarthur fan away back. When MacArthur retired as Chief of Staff for what seemed like military ob- livion in the Philippines, MT. Roose- welt told his aides: q must always find a way to keep MacArthur close to me. If there is ever another A. F. F, he's the man to take 1t overi"
 MacArthur, who wouldn't be in his present plight if the Rip Van Wrinkles had listened to bis pre- paredness pleas, hasn't lost his sense of humor in spite of 1t all. When his Philippine troops were ircorpor- ated into the U. S. Army last July, MacArthur's first message to Wash ington was: Send me airplanes, trucks and guns" To which he add- ed the postscript: "If you can't spare anything else, send me some some French-and- Indian war toma- haws."
 When MacArthur went over the top with his troops in France, the only head-covertng he ever wore was his everyday service cap, disdaining the safer steel helmet required by regulations. Called down once by his immediate commander, General Menoher, for taking that risk, Mac Arthur's reply was: T can't be bothered with changing my hat when I'm busy!"S
 Newspapermen eat out of MacAr- thurs hand, and no wonder! When he was Commander of the Philip pine Department and news of his divorce from his first wife reached Manila, the local newspapermen rushed to his headquarters and asked if he obecjted to their printing the story, adding they would suppress it if he wished. "No," was his reply. Put it on the front page if you want to!"
 MacArthur is one man who wasn't caught mapping by the Japs. On Dec. 6-the day before the Pearl Harbor attack-he called the re. porters in to his Manila headquarters and told them: Boys, it's herel" . When news of a successful raid on the JapS reached Washington, an army officer remarked: Macarthur is always in the thick of the battlel" =. "You mean" corrected Rain bow Division veteran, "the thick of the battle is always where Mac Arthur isl" Floyd Gibbons, com menting once on the rakish tilt at which MacArthur wears his hat, wrote that it was just the tilt which permitted his personality to emerge without violating Army regulations.
 MacArthur and his wife have a quaint manner of addressing each other, like characters in He. .lywood version of the South. She calls him General, and he calls her Ma'am .. His favorite military hero is Napoleon It was MacArthur who thought up the idea of the O4k1oAJA4 6dNC ~ GA4dt name. The army chiefs big prob lem at the outset of the last war was how to be impartial in picking the State whose soldiers should be sent to France first. MacArthur solved the problem by suggesting that division be sent composed of men from every State, stretch ing like rainbow clear across the United States"
 Then there's the story about the short-wave radio conversation be- tween two JapS. One was telling the other what swell job he had in the Philippines-all he had to do was to sit in a big white tower and wait for General MacArthur to raise the white flag. Does 1t pay much?" asked the Tokio ham.
 Hell, mo-" replied the other, but it's a life job"

OPA Postpones Some Reports

An announcement from the Territorial Office of Price Ad- ministration asks merchants to postpone temporarily the pre- paration of all reports on com modities not listed as cost-of living commodities, pending clarification by Washington of the report divisions of the Ala ska Amendment to the Price Control Regulation.
 At the same time merchants are urged to continue posting of required ceiling prices for the August 1 deadline and to have their report on cost-of-living commodities ready at that time.

BOwLER'S HALL OF FAME

Bowling for the coming season
among Race members will be worth
the time spent watching the pins
fly. Teams throughout the country
have been strengthened. More
teams and leagues are being or
ganized, this all leads us to believe
that bowling this season will take
an upward trend.
Something to Think About
With the barrier being broken
down in many other fields, the big
question in our mind these days
is how long will the Abe. con-
tinue its discrimination OF Race
bowlers? In times like these we
think that the clause in their con-
stitution which reads, For Csu-
casian Only" should be abolished.
Not because we Race members
would like to break up our own
national organization, but just to
keep in step with the present con-
ditions. We Race bowlers would
like to feel that after we had enter
tanned a white team on our home
alleys, we would like to at least
think that II we were invited to
their alleys for a return match that
our boys and girls would be well
coined.

Only three pins are used the l, 4.

ell three pins with your first ball
Il you can. Results strike, or
ten pins. II you knock all the pins
down with the second bail, it counts
as spare. In other words the scor-
