II IL sponsored by the state
Grange. labor, the Democratic
party progressive Republicans
and public ownership advocates.
It has won the hearty approval
Of Senator Homer T. Bone, veteran
public power leader. and gears in
with his Columbia Valley Author
ity bin now pending in congress.
TWO MORE DISTRICTS
Enactment of Initiative II
would allow two or more public
utility districts TO jointly acquire
by negotiation or condemnation of
private power systems. without
sacrifice OF district autonomy.
The $1,000 valid signatures must
be obtained prior TO Dec. 81.
Question has been raised m TO
why public power advocates seek
passage OF an initiative measure.
rather than wait for the legisls-
ture TO convene and cover the
same ground through q bill.
Somewhat ''bitter expert
ence" h prompting the pres
ent step. King offers In an
swer.

COMMITTEES Of the last Legislature.

portant provisions OF another pow
er bill that passed were vetoed by
the governor.
An initiative 10 the legislature

IMPORTANT PROVISIONS
Among important provisions in
Initiative ~ is one to the effect
that when q city. district or joint
commission condemns privately
owned utility properties the COM
pany must account for earnings
between the date the verdict 10
rendered by the jury and date 1t
IL paid. and credit these earnings
against the interest the law now
allows the company to collect on
the verdict At present the COM
pany gets to keep the earnings and
at the same time collects interest
on the purchase. all OF which costs
the public hundreds Of thousands
of dollars. according to PUD
officials.
II was a provision like this that
was VETOED by Governor Lsnglie
after passage Of 1910 power bill

Navy Shes From
Underwear RuIino
fectins Women
By HELENE MONBERG

WASHINGTON, June "a. eUP)-
The Navy, acting like a fish out OF
water, retreated today from the
problem of ladies unmentionables
for its women reservists and BASH
fully washed its hands OF the whole
affair.
It's women reservists, the Navy
declared firmly, may buy their own
girdles, panties, ct al, in whatever
color, size or shape they desire. The
Navy declared with equal firmness
that it sure won't do it for them.
This was in contrast to the man
ner in which the army handled the
girdles-for- girls problem in the
Women's Auxiliary Corps. The quar-
termasters took the problem in stride
without missing a step.
After the senate naval affairs
committee. approved legislation to
establish the women reserve of the
navy tWRN), Rear Admiral Randall
Jacobs told a press conference the
Navy would leave it TO the girls
TO purchase what they want to
wear under their regulation ex
ternalS.' All the Navy VIII Go will
be furnish the money
The Army quartermasters decided
recently they would equip the
WAACS with girdleS-in three sizes
for thin, medium and plump fig
ures-plus variety of other under
clothing. The Army even ventured
into the field of cosmetics, deciding
after long deliberation-that the
WAACS would get one lotion bottle,
one comb, one cream jar--and the
indispensable mirror.

WE
the Women
BY RUTH MIILETT

BY RUTH MlLLETT
Every community in America has
few Not Us" families. A Not
us" family is will ng to do any
thing to help win the war but in
convenience itself.
At the announcement or rumor
Of a scarcity the Not Us" family
doesn't say philosophically Except
in public We'll just have to get
along on less" Instead it ruShes
out and lays in supply of the
scarce article. Others may have
to do without but Not US
1t sounds like exaggeration but
the Not Us" family actually grum-
bles about what a nuisance it is to
have to remember to take an old
tube to the drugstore when buying
a new tube of toothpaste.
Now that sugar ration ng has
gone into effect the Not Us" fam
lily only gets half pound a week
per person, like everybody else. But
they are still enjoying pies, cakes
and cookies as uSual-Which could
only be managed by failure to de-
clare that hundred pounds in the
basement.
The tire shortage scared the day
lights out of the Not Us family
and for a long time they used theil
car as little as possible, even THOUGH
they miraculously had more thar
one spare for it
But the other day there was q
hint that the government might
have to take over private automo'
biles in the future or at least
might permit family to have only
five tires. So, the MOT Us" family
outside the gasoline ration area i!
running the wheels off the Car, 60
ing for long Sunday drives ant
even taking weekend tr'ps in it.
It's simple, the way they have j
figured out. If the government /!
likely TO take their car away from
them tefore the tires are gone, the.
might just as well wear out th'
tires themselves. And they are doint
their best to do just that.
The funny thing about the NO
Us" families is that they thinl
they are good citizens. They GER
tainly don't believe for a minute
they and their attitudes are handl
capp ng the war effort. -
They believe in the war effort
but they don't want to be incon
venienced by it.
