School News

The Elementary School held a
visiting day, Thursday. May 6. All
the parents and friends of the
school were invited to visit and see
the school in operation. The Stu
dent Council greeted the visitors
at the door and had them sign the
visitors book. Another committee
of the council served lemonade and
cup cakes to all the visitors who
came that way.
The visitors book showed that
ninety-seven names had been sign-
ed but that did not tell the whole
story. There were many parents
in the building who did not put
their names in the register and this
carries the number of visitors well
over a hundred. We were delight
ed at the turn out and hope that as
many as possibly can will return
soon.
We had an Audio Visual Aid ex-
hibit in the hall for the parents
to see. This was sponsored by the

AS Ten1pus Fugits :. /.
BY HAL CLARK

I feel like an old meanie to
mention it; but, contrary to the
implication of the popular drama,
death was taking no holiday last
Sunday.
I'm deeply thankful that I have
no direct evidence to support this
statement, and, under the cir
cumstances, you may conclude
that I'm fussbudgeting again. That
may be true; I've no desire to at
tempt the TEST that would be nee
essary to establish it's truth or
falsity.
Actually the whole incident
came to no more than this-our
lad was ill Sunday, and his con-
dition at last appeared to us
to warrant an examination by a
physician. So, taking the tele-
phone directory, I began to call.
called three physicians in Ken
newick and one in Pasco. CThey
happened to be men we had had
previous experience with0 Not one
of them answered the phone.
l did reach the office of one
physician, only to have the young
lacy who answered tell me that
the office was not open on Sum
day. In reply to my question as to
where the doctor could be reach
ed, she repeated that the office
was not open on Sunday.
My son was not gravely ill;
he was much better on the fol-
lowing morning without benefit
of medical attention. Most for
tunately, he was not victim of
accident; he had no broken or
fractured bones; his life blood was
not pumping away through sew
cred artery.
The only thing remarkable in
the happening was the cold chill
that crept into my mind as l
thought of what might have been.
What would have done? Perhaps
one of the telephone operators, at
my request, might have kept try
ing numbers in Kennewick and
Pasco until she located a doctor.
These girls often serve capably
in such emergencies, il they UNI

Coe Proposes
Regular Salaries
For Leqislaiors

Placing of members of the state
legislation on monthly basis
was recommended this week by
Secretary of State Earl Coe.
tial members IF .Ee legislature
include $4,000 annually for the
governor; $4,000 for supreme
court judges; $4,000 for elective
officials and 500 a month for
Legislators. These salary ranges
would be on a par with other
states, Coe pointed out.
"The new pay schedules should
be adopted with the view that
they probably will be effective
for the next so years. The old
ones, adquatd when established,
have been in force since 1885,"
the secretary continued.
Adoption of Senate Joint Res
olution Number Four at the last
election will permit the legislature
to adjust the pay of state elective
officials including its own men,
beers. The pay rates had previous
ly been fixed by the state constitu-
ton.
Putting members of the legis-
lature on a monthly salary would
create more of a feeling amoung
them that they We're represent
ing their constituents on year
round basis rather than for just
the go days of the regular session."
Coe declared.
81 believe that this would en-
courage members of the legisla-
ture to devote more of their time
to studying the problems of the
state government and would also
improve the work of the legisla-
tive interim committees" he
continued.
The secretary of state also de-
clared that he favored continue
ton of the legislative council
created at the last session.
Perhaps the legislature should
meet more than once every two
years." Coe said. with the leg
islators on salary, I believe they
would be more agreeable to leav-
ing their work for such sessions"
The state constitution, adopted
in 1889, now provides SIS a day
for the members Of the legislature.

derstand them. Perhaps I could
have taken the boy in the car to
the hospital, where emergency
treatment would have been avail
able.
You see, I don't know these
things. don't know what would
have done, or how it would have
worked CT. It might have been
all right.
But the cold chill in my mind
kept telling me: death is on no
holiday in Kennewick - not on
this Sunday"
Dramatic? - Corny? - Need
less? = A columnist's cheap bid
for attention?
Yes any one OF these terms
might be applied to me, as I write
these lines. Possibly they would
be deserved. If so, I'll accept them
in silence and without protest.
But - should they happen not
to be deserved, we're up against a
condition that's serious; a condi-
ton that cries out for correction.
You and I may be up against a
condition by reason of which. life
might run out with the ticking of
a clock before the saver of lives
could be summoned.
And I think it is possible that
that possibility exists!
Please believe that I know how
i'll equipped I am to judge these
matters. I'm writing about some
thing entirely out of my field. 1
admit it.
However, the president is going
to reopen his request for some
sort of national health measure,
when congress re-convenes, and
I'd like to see it fairly and honest
ly considered.
If, as the president seems to
believe and / have been given
reason to suspect, there is need
to be met, then the physicians of
our nation should bring the best
of their leadership and talent to
the solution of that need.
They know the exacting nature
OF their profession And, speaking
as one Of the millions of laymen, I
have quickly granted that I have
not enough knowledge to recon-
ment corrective measures. We
need our doctors help.
1t isn't enough to oppose pub
lie health proposals, without pro-
ducing out Of the knowledge of
the physicians of the nation some
reasonable and workable plan to
replace them.
I think our medical men owe
us that.
You can insure yourself against
the wreckage of your car, against
the total destruction of your home
- the government insures your
savings up to point. But, for
most Of us, there is no insur-
ance against the tragic and calami-
tous effect Of the prolonged ILL
ness of a loved one that eats up
in its heartbreaking course the
very livelihood an substance of a
family-bringing them first to fru-
gality. then to perjury and finally
to bankruptcy.
This guy, Clark's, getting corny
again, isn't he?
If you think SO, look around
you at your family and your
friends and your acquaintance.
and then tell me if you failed to
find at least one instance of griev-
Gus illness and family financial
ruination. Then call me corny.
Medical men of America - it's
there as big as a mountain. You
can't talk it away, or laugh it off,
or disregard it - it's there!
Now, if our legislators are off
on the wrong foot, give us the
counsel and help we need to de-
wise workable measures to destroy
this crouching beast of illness
and poverty that could spring out
upon any one of us at any time.
We don't want to hurt you or
