was received from Cecil Schock who

Sedan to be delivered at that place.
A fter equipping the car with a high
speed Ruckstell axle and giving it

mile delivery, accompanied by Clyde

River road to Portland, crossed the
Interstate bridge where a stop was
made for breakfast at Vancouver.
Leaving Vancouver and following
the Pacific Highway north, a short
stop was made at La Center, the
first town north o f Vancouver.
Their route then took them through
Woodland( Kalama, Kelso, where
they stopped long enough to take on
gasoline; then on to Chehalis and in
to Centralia where a stop was made
for dinner.
Leaving there they
drove north through Tenino and in

The total

London.— The last embers o f the
general strike are dying down, and
with the exception of the miners,
who are likely to remain out until
a satisfactory agreement is reached
the country is rapidly assuming nor
mal conditions and the people and
the government are beginning to
count the cost.
No final estimate is yet possible,
but the general impression in gov
ernmental circles is that the loss
will be less than the cost of the coal
strike in 1921, which is generally
thought to have been in the neigh
borhood o f 200 million pounds.
Winston Churchill, chancellor o f
the exchequer, in his recent budget
statement announced that in the
event o f such a labor movement, is
would be neccsary to revise his

treasury. There is little doubt that
some additional taxation will be ra
