NO. H. This measure would per-
NIT the formation of a combined
city and county municipal corpor-
alton having more than 10000 Pop
ulation. AS a practical matter. the
only city affected at present would
be Seattle, which could form itself
into the city and County Of Sea-
ttle", provided that the rest Of King
County gave its approval. Propo-
nents of the measure feel that. If
carried out, 1t would eliminate the
present friction between the metro
politan and rural districts Of King
County.
=
In presenting the above nut
shell decriptions", this column has
attempted to be neutral in the be-
lief that voters VIII make up their
own minds and vote accordingly.
We cannot refrain, however, from
hoping that voters win not be in
discriminate enough to pass both
Initiatives Is and 171-which would
create an unprecedented situation
to say the least.

At the general elections to be held
on November End, voters OF the
state win be confronted with eight
general measures-four Initiatives
and four amendments to the State
Constitution to each OF which
they win be asked to vote for or
against. Here. in convenient cap
sulated form, are presented the
eight measures IN question:
INITIATIVE NO. Is-This ini-
tiative, sponsored by the Washing
ton Temperance Association, would
restrict the sale Of beer and wine
to state liquor stores on the same
basis as hard liquor under the pre-
sent laws. Taverns would, of course,
become illegal under this measure.
INITIATIVE NO. 1862 This is
the WV. sponsored bonus bill",
to pay veterans o bonus for World
War II service ct the rate OF SO
per month for stateside duty. and
SIS per month for overseas duty.
Eligible veterans would be those
who at the time Of his or her entry
upon active Federal service and for
period Of one year prior thereto
was a BONA Eide citizen or resi-
dent Of the State Of Washington"
The initiative carries its own finan-
cling clause. prividing for the rails
ing or necessary funds by the sale
Of bonds in amount Of $lO0, OO0, 900
to mature In not more than 80 years.
To aid In retiring the bonds, Q ten
per cent tax would be levied on an
retail tobacco sales. II. as has been
argued, such q tobacco tax would
be insufficient to pay for the bonds
in the event the initiative is passed,
the problem OF raising additional
revenues would be up to future leg
islatures to solve.
INITIATIVE NO. III This Is
known as "Tne Common Sense LII
quor Bill". IN contrast to Initia-
tive No. IS, this measure would per-
NIT bona fide restaurants, hotels,
and clubs to sell liquor by the drink,
thus liberalizing the present laws
to that extent. Licenses would be
limited in number to one for each
1900 Of population; approximately
100 licenses could be issued under
this limitation. In an attempt to
remove the Liquor Board from po-
litics", the three-man board would
serve nine-year terms ON stagger-
ed lthree-year basis. with removal
only for cause and after q hearing
before three judges.
INITIATIVE NO. IT. This Is

the controversial 'Old Age Pension
Billv, which would liberalize present
laws to provide for q minimum
grant or $50 per month, and would
eliminate the lien clause which
would permit the state to recover
from the estate Of q deceased pen
sioner for funds advanced during
his lifetime. The measure is spon-
sored by the State Townsend Clubs
Of washington and the Washington
Pension Union; 1t is vigorously OPP
posed by the Washington State
Taxpayers Association as costly"
and "unworkable".
Turning to the four proposed con-
stitutional amendments, they are
all in the form of joint resolutions
passed by the legislature, and are
as follows:
SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION
NO. - This measure would permit
the legislature to fix the salaries
Of elected state officials from the
governor on down. A constitutional
amendment is necessary because
the state constitution originally set
q top limit on salaries for all state
officials. These limits are now
deemed much too low.
SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION
NO. s. This measure would permit
counties to adopt Home Rule"
charters, in order that counties may
set up their own forms of govern
ment according to their needs.
HOUSE JOINT RESOLUTION
NO. A. This measure would abolish
the present limitation against cleo
ted county officials serving more
than two terms in succession.

JUNEAU CHAMBER MAKES } OFFERS
 TO COAST GUARD
Local Business and Civic Groups Attempt to Locate
 Headquarters Here

The Juneau Chamber of Com- merce has transmitted three hous- ing propositions to the U. s. Coast Guard in Washington, D. C., it was announced today at the Chambers weekly meeting In letter to Captain Alfred c. Richmond, Chief of Planning and Control. the Chamber offered to build either two types of buildings to fit Coast Guard specifications, or turn over the Juneau Hotel for its exclusive use.
 The offer also guaranteed suit able housing for Coast Guard personnel should the service decide to re-establish the l6th Coast Guard District and locate its headquarters in Juneau.
 The Chamber stated that group of public spirited citizens had vol unteered to underwrite the con- struction of either a large office building for the Coast Guard and others CT to construct two story building suitable for the exclusive use of that service. It pointed out that the first type of building could be constructed by July l, l949, while the other could be fin- ished little more quickly Either building would be tailored to fit Coast Guard needs.
 The Juneau Hotel was offered as the third proposal. It can make available between 5000 and l4,00G square feet of space. Captain Richmond had stated the Coast Guard would need approximately 20,0O0 square feet. This would be available TOT immediate occupancy If the service would consider its use.
 The Chamber pointed out that the Governors office claims that 27 Federal and Territorial agen- cies need between 22,000 and 25.000 additional square feet of office space. This would make the large building practical, it was declared.
 The letter expressed willingness
