The tax measure would raise about 4.1 million dollars a year for relief from utilities excise admissions beer and malt taxes. The second bill creates a state relief director and tightens spending controls while enabling enforcement via withholding state grants. A third relief bill of 3 6 5 7 000 from sales tax money has already been signed. Counties receive total appropriations around 11.6 million with allocations based on tax duplicates. some counties must repay prior stopgap funds.

Probe Plot To Blow Up Jap Liner Hiyo Maru
Police and customs officers in Seattle battled a two man plot to bomb the Japanese liner Hiyo Maru with a time bomb at the dock. A suitcase packed with dynamite and a clock was found floating near the ship’s mooring with a 1:30 p.m. detonation set. The dead man Ralph Forsythe, formerly of University of British Columbia, was linked to the scheme along with George Partridge of Vancouver. Authorities pursued leads across Vancouver and Seattle as they unfolded a scheme involving a Chinese financier and an oriental agency. The investigation extended to Partridge’s brother William, with statements tying the plan to sink ships carrying iron to Japan. Continuous reporting noted Forsythe’s disappearance from the dock and the bomber’s eventual discovery. Continued on page 2.
