because, of a storm of protests from

throughout eastern Washington. It
J Is believed that Mr. Johnson, the
-J Poindexter candidate, will get the
. appointment, .although this contest
' affords a rather delicate situation.
Mr. Jeffrey, like Mr. Jesseph. is an
i ex-service mai, and' was former state
commander of toe American Legion.
Being one of a very few ex-service
i men on the list of availables for
- federal Jobs in Washington, it is dif
ficult even for Senator Poindexter to
J turn him down. Mr. Jeffrey was for
come years a clerk in Senator Jones

loyal to him, but inclined to defer to
Senator Poindexter on patronage

; Is the Poindexter home.
5 For United States marshal no one
but the two senators probably know
j what they have on. their minds. The
i treat pressure has been for the ap
' pointment of Ren H. Rice of Spokane,
prominent in civic and community
advancement work, with' a splendid
record of public service, but the word
that filters in here- is .that Frank
'' Keyes of Walla Walla,- former war
i den of the state penitentiary, and
one-time member of the legislature,
is slated for the job. This informa
tion comes entirely from friends of
. Mr. Keyes back In Washington state
In letters reaching here.
Senator Poindexter smiled when
asked about the Keyes selection, and
said if it was settled he had never
heard of it Of course, it Is thought
possible that the tremendous pres
sure exerted in - behalf of Mr. Rice
by influential men and women 3f
eastern Washington who have workel
with him in one kind of public en
terprlse or another may cause some
hesitation to reject his claims. Sen
'afror Poindexter, who will .be the de
ciding factor In the marshalshtp con
test, now that Representative Web
ster has received notice to keep hands
off, admits that he thinks well of
Mr. Rice. Another candidate is B. F
Wells of Palbuse, who has excellent
support W. J. Halteman of Spokane
also Is a formidable aspirant.
Another spirited race is that be
tween E. K. Fritts of Waterville and
J. Henry Smith of Okanogan for reg
ister of the Waterville land office.
It is thought that Mr. Fritts will be
named for this place and that soon
thereafter S. S. Beggs. democrat, will

that Mr. Smith may have the job.

John P. Donlin Makes Address to
Convention In Progress
at Denver, Colo.
DENVER, Colo., June 9. The or
ganized building craftsmen of the
country must free the building Indus
try of inter-union .strife, craft Juris
dictional disputes and other unneces
sary and burdensome, oppressive re
strictions, John P. Donlin, president
of the building trades department of
the American Federation of Labor,
told delegates to the department's an
nual convention.
Every organization must guarantee
to arbitrate all questions arising in
the industry, the labor leader assert
ed, the provision must be made to
prevent any cessation of work pend
ing the adjudication of any contro
versy
"We must stop tying up building
operations upon which none but union
men are employed, he said, declar
ing that the cessation of work in
flicted injury "on ourselves and in
justice upon the investor and hurts
the general morale and well-being of
the community.
Disputes Menace to Industry.
"We must not injure communities
continued the speaker, "cause inno
cent persona to suffer pecuniary
losses. not to mention mental
anguish, the danger of financial ruin.
as well is cause our great rank and
Ale to suffer incalculable losses.
"Jurisdictional disputes are not
only the most dangerous problems to
organized craftsmen, but a serious
menace to industry."
Mr. Donlin declared that he be
lieved jurisdictional strifes generally
are the result of demagogues and
aspirants for office, or they emanate
from a class of workers which it is
impossible to satisfy or for reasons
that will not stand for the magnify
ing glass."
This convention will Indeed be a
mockery, a hypocrisy on the things
our movements stand for unless we
solve our inter-union disputes, as
serted the labor leader, urging that
the department reaffirm its support
to the national board of jurisdictional
awards in the building industry.
Board's Work Threatened.
"By all the laws of honor upon
which civilization Vests, we building
tradesmen are committeed to this
board," said Mr. Donlin, warning that
the board's work was threatened by
the failure of one of the large Inter
national unions to obey its Jurisdic
tional decision.
Capital and labor should co-oner-
ate to reduce the cost of living." the
labor leader said, adding:
"Capital and management must
start up all industries, labor agreeing
to a maximum output per Individual,
thus keeping wages up and the cost
of livlne down. Capital and manage
ment should also bear the burden of
readjustment. Give to the masses
what they consume at the cost of pro
duction plus a fair profit."
The aggregate wage paid to build
ing workers is not high or respon
sibH for the high cost of buildings
said the labor leader. He blamed the
high cost of living on "high financing
excessive overheads, exceslve profits
and combinations.
Home-Building Campaign Urged.
Urging that a campaign of home
building be inaugurated, he said: "It
can be done more expediently anil
cheaper now than in the recent past
or In the near future."
"Now is the opportune time to build
homes,", added the speaker. "Hanks
should remove any obstacle in the
way of borrowers and make their
loans inviting to those who would
build. Material men should remove
restrictions and effects of combina
tions from the cost of homes. Labor
should insure efficiency."
He predicted that building oper
ations will resume with a rush in the
near future.
The American Federation of Labor
was urged to conduct a publicity cam
paign involving the expenditure of
nearly J2.5W1.000 by John W. Hays,
president of the united label trades'
department of the federation, in an
address today before the depart
ment's convention. He said such a
campaign was necessary at this time
to gain public support for the trades
union movement.
Demand that steps be taken to halt
the alleeed exploitation of wnmn
laborers by unscrupulous employers
was made today in a declaration pre
sented for consideration h fore the
annual convention of the metal trads
department of the American Federa
tion of Labor.
Tha, declaration asserted that there
is no objection to the employment of
women workers, but they mimt re
ceive at least the same consideration
and as good conditions as those en
joyed by men workers.
Among the resolutions Introduced
was one calling upon the American
Federation of Labor to "bring Into
existence a newspaper that will pub
lish an honest report of strikes, lock
outs, conferences and Investigations.'
Another urged that all Interna
tional unions in the metal trades di
vision unite for a nation-wide cam
paign to organize the electrical man
ufacturing industry.

WASHINGTON, June 9. President I
Harding telegraphed a message of I
himself. Members of the British
commission have been pressing the
British foreign office to make repre
sentations a". Paris that will head off
diplomatic support by the French
authorities.
British Determined on Policy.
. The British are united in deter
mining to re-establish their prestige.
They make no secret with me that if I
the present plan of peaceful penetra
tion into the insurgent territory shall
fail, and that through any possible
encouragement tho insurgents may
get Indirectly through the commission
at Oppein. they will force a change in
the personnel of the commission, even
at the risk of diplomatic trouble.
The actual issue has been over the
operation of the Upper Sileeian coal
mines. It is the British purpose that
the Germans shall do it. While this
implies that the region shall remain
German, It does not mean that tne
British are tender of German feel
ings as little does It mean that they
fear the French. The British course
is based on the belief that the Ger
mans will work the mines well, as
full output from the minea is essen
tial to the ' welfare of central and
southern Europe.
A settlement of this kind will be
pushed because of the economic ne
cessity that industry be revised and
as a necessary means to that end the
mineTO must get back to worK.

,Today the truth of ex
perience is making itself
felt in the tire trade as
in everything else.
The quality instinct in
the American public is
bearing weight.
As it always does.
On May 1st, 1921,
there were 36 more
dealers selling United
States Royal Cord
Tires than a year ago.
There might be a
number of reasons
why. Reputation. De
mand. Quality. Square
dealing. Stable policy.
All these count of
course. But of greater
importance just now is
the dealers' repudiation
of "discount" methods
of doing business.
These men are reading
the public mind. They
are no longer willing
merely to sell "discounts"
"so much off on this
tire, so much off on
that."
They are selling a tire
service a tangible, par
quality tire at a net price
qAs people say
everywhere
United StatesTires
are Good Tires
that more often than not
delivers in excess of what
is charged for it.
The leadership of the
U.S. Royal Cord Tire
cannot be explained on
its physical qualities
alone.
You cannot separate it
from the policy behind it.)
A policy insistent on'
quality first on sound
merchandising as against '
temporary appeal on a
reality of tire worth
stead of an unreality of
discount talk.
The outstanding rea
son, perhaps, why so
many thousands of car
owners measure all
other tires by U. S.
Royal Cords as the
standard tire to go by.
