Bum check artists pursued
Law enforcement officers have been given new authority to take action
against motorists who purchase vehicle licenses with faulty checks. Jack
Nelson, Director of the Department of Motor Vehicles, explained that
under state law the license plate of an individual's vehicle is cancelled in
the event of a bad check payment. All law enforcement authorities are
notified and if the motorist continues to operate the vehicle, the act is a
gross misdemeanor.
Free diabetic class slated
The Thurston County Health Department is conducting a two-day
Diabetic Instruction Class at the Health Department, 529 West Fourth
Street, Olympia, on Tuesday and Wednesday, May 13 and 14 from 8
a.m. to 3 p.m. Anyone interested in learning more about diabetes and
its control is invited to attend. A physician's referral isn't required.
Please call the Health Department at 753-8076 to register. There is no
charge for the instruction.
Jobs in Alaska are scarce
Despite a sharp rise in construction activity on the trans-Alaska
pipeline this year, there are virtually no jobs available for casual
workers going to Alaska, Assistant Secretary of Labor for Manpower
William H. Kolberg said. Kolberg, reiterating earlier warnings by the
U.S. Department of Labor about the lack of Alaskan pipeline jobs, said
the sharp rise in unemployment has caused a new flurry of interest in
jobs in Alaska. Alaska's unemployment rate, 12.6 percent in February,
is among the nation's highest.
Vets use education loans
More than 1,200 veterans qualified for Veterans Administration
education loans during the first three months of the new program
established by the Vietnam-era Veterans Readjustment Act of 1974.
Veterans attending school under the GI Bill who are in need of
additional financial assistance to meet education expenses, are eligible
to apply for bans up to $600 per academic year. The loans are in
addition to the monthly GI Bill stipends.
Food stamps buy seed, plants
Low-income households participating in the U.S. Department of
Agriculture's (USDA) food stamp program are reminded that food
stamps can be used to purchase seeds and plants for use in home
gardens to produce food for the household. The food-producing seeds
and plants can only be purchased at stores authorized by USDA to
participate in the food stamp program. The food stamp program
regulations were amended in August 1973 to permit the purchase of
seeds and plants for the participating family's personal use.

Employment picture improves
After a slight one-week setback, insured unemployment under
regular entitlement (all programs) in Washington State resumed its
downward course, dropping nearly 4,300 to total 90,142 for the week
ending April 26, 1975. Including the 14,868 individuals filing for
extended benefits and 23,301 persons drawing federal supplemental
benefits, the number claiming came to 128,311. Accelerated outdoor
activity due to improving weather accounted for a major part of the
decline in total unemployment over the week.
State motorists use more gas
Gasoline deliveries in Washington State during the month of March
continued to show an increase over the energy crisis totals of a year
ago. The number of gallons delivered by distributors during March 1975
was 133,906,117. The total is up 7.06 percent over deliveries in March
1974 when the number was 125,080,108 gallons. The 1975 total was
down from March 1973 when 142,393,763 gallons were delivered.

The Veterans Administration
this week reminded veterans of
their right to request correction
of what they feel are errors or
injustices in their military records.
Application must be
submitted to the branch in which
the veteran served, but VA can
provide the necessary Department
some errors may seem
insignificant, correction of others
could prove important, resulting
in eligibility for VA and other
benefits.
Generally, veterans are
expected to file requests for
correction within three years, but
this deadline may be waived in
Second job is census topic
How many people are supplementing their regular paycheck with a
second job? How many people are enrolled in adult educational courses
or are taking vocational training? John E. Tharaldson, director of the
Bureau of the Census Regional Office in Seattle, announced recently
that information on these subjects will be collected during the week of
May 19 from a sample of households in this area.
Lower drinking age asked
Petitions for Initiative 305, the act that would lower the legal
drinking age to 19 years, are being distributed across the state. Over
117,000 signatures are needed to place the measure on the ballot for
the November 4 elections. The petitions are being distributed by the
Committee for the Legalization of 19 Year Old Drinking Age. The -
committee has been working since January 1975, to draft, file and print
the petitions as required by state law.
Timber sale bill to governor
A bill allowing the Department of Natural Resources to sell state
timber valued at up to $10,000 without going to bid has been passed by
both houses of the legislature. The current limit is $5,000. The bill is
now on its way to the Governor to be signed into law.
Actions follow
The only things in which we can
be said to have any property is
our actions... Our actions must
follow us beyond the grave: with
respect to them alone we cannot
say that we shall carry nothing
with us when we die, neither that
we shall go naked out of the
world. Our actions must clothe us
with an immortality, loathsome
or glorious: these are the only
title-deeds of which we cannot be
disinherited; they will have their
