OLTMPIA. Wash, March 23. (Spe
cial.) State Senator Edward L. French
of Vancouver is considered an active
candidate for appointment on the In

the recent legislature in making pro

ticable solution of labor troubles.

stood Sentor French is about ready to
retire from active business and would
like to give his time to the course of
research outlined. He has represented
Clarke county in the legislature since
1909.
Senator Joseph H. Smith of Snoho
mish also is interested in representing
the session on the commission. He Is
a younger man than Senator French,
