ABE VAN VECHTEN IS
ASSISTANT MANAGER
TO AUTO DISTRIBUTOR
The Seattle Post Intelligencer, of a
recent date,- contains a picture and the
following announcement in reference
to a former Cordovan, which will be
read with interest by his many friends
here:
Announcement of the appointment ol
A. Van Vechten to the important post
of assistant manager was made late
last week by W. L. Eaton, dealer in
Dodge Bros.’s motor cars and Republic
truck distributor for Western Wash
ington, arousing much interest in busi
ness circles of the city as well as
along Auto row.
Mr. Van Vechten, because of his for
mer association for many years in
charge of the Seattle, branch of Holly
wood Farm and treasurer for the Fred
S. Stimson Company, is widely known
in Seattle as an efficient and aggres
sive executive capable of mastering
the details connected with a big or
ganization.
His business experience also dates
back to his early years with the J.
Pierpont Morgan Company and with
the Copper River & Northwestern Rail
road, the latter service beginning
when he came west from New York
City.
In creating the post of assistant
manager Mr. Eaton took another big
step forward in his plan of organiza
tion which when completed will be one
of the most comprehensive in auto
mobile circles. His selection of Mr.
Van Vechten for the pos't came only
after the most careful consideration
in view of his plans for organization
growth.
That ihe choice was a wise one was
indicated when during the removal
from the former home at Broadway
and East Pike to present temporary
quarters at Tenth avenue and East
Seneca, pending the completion of the
new building, the work was so handled
that there was scarcely a ripple of in
terruption in the business.

TEACHERS MUST BE
GIVEN BETTER WAGES
FOR GOOD OF SCHOOLS
SANTA BARBARA, Cal., Jhne 21
(by Associated Press).—Homer Mar
tin principal ot the high school, has
made a report to the school board urg
ing that the blanket raise of $300
asked by Santa Barbara teacherB be
granted as a danger which may arise
if teachers continue to join labor
unions. In the report he says:
“The teachers have, year after year
trusted those in authority to look out
for their interests. Nothing was done.
Many schools are joining the labor
unions. This is a greater blow at our
democracy than ever struck by kaiser
or king. Our schools have ever stood
midway between the laboring and the
capitalistic classes. They have been
unprejudiced; they have taught the
best ideals of both sides.
"Under the direct influence of the
American teachers all classes have
united in sympathy and understanding.
The very life of democracy depends
upon keeping the public school teacher
fail minded and neutral. Should a
large number of the teaching profes
slon be driven into unionism, the
wealthy cIbbb will establish more pri
vate schools; the understanding and
sympathy between rich and poor will
be almost entirely lost. Class hatred
will increase. War and industrial
chaos will resulte.
“I hope the teachers of Santa Bar
bara will not be driven to take such
a step yet. But can we blame them?
They see the plumbers, the carpenters,
bricklayers and mechanics securing an
increase in wage commensurate with
the Increased cost of living by forming
unions. Why may they not secure the
same?
“Both teachers and public do not
understand the far-reaching evil of
this step—the widening breach be
tween capital and labor, the severing
of the strongest bonds that hold our
civilization together. Teachers should
hesitate and weigh heavily before they
unionize; the public should stop and
consider means to treat the teachers
justly and not drive them into the
arms of unionism.”
