CHAMBER CALLS
MASS MEETING
FOR THURSDAY
To ThreSh Out Whole Matter and
Unite Citizens on Plan Of
Operation, Idea.
MAKE NO recommendations

The executive committee or the
chamber of commerce decided last
evening to call mass meeting in the
court house for Thursday evening OF
this week TO finally settle the ques-
tions as to the plan of operation for
the local commercial organization.
The call which is signed by Chair
man Lincoln Antics and th eother
members of the committee which sup
orseded the old board of directors in
January. states fully and concisely
the objects of the meeting.
1t follows in full:
Because we feel that the active
championship of two distinct plans
Of operation for a commercial organ
ization will only result in the wild
ening of the differences between the
citizens OF the city and because we
feel that If the question is thresh-
ed out in open meeting whatever is
impracticable and whatever is obso-
lete will be rejected. the executive
committee of the chamber of COM
merce hereby issue call for mass
meeting to be held in the court house
at 1880 O'Clock Thursday evening for
the discussion of plans in reference
to business mems association.
without any recommendations as
to the continuance of the present
body or the organization of another
and with an urgent welcome to every
public spirited citizen to attend re-
gardless of his ideas on the subject,
the committee asks the cooperation
of the whole people in settling this
yexing question.
The decision to call this meeting
was arrived at Tuesday afternoon af-
ter conference with several promi-
nent citizens who are identified with
practically all forms of the present
movement.
The intelligent solution OF this
problem can only come from a dis
cussion in which every citizen shall
have voice and that solution should
be one upon which the citizens are
not divided.
Let every one interested in the
furthering of the enterprise and the
growth of the city and it's civic bet
terment attend this meeting and
freely take part in the discussions.

AMERICAS RIGHT TO TRADE.

The authorities at Washington are
 properly unfolding in a firm manner the trade rights that this country pos sesses under recognized principles of
 public law, despite the efforts of Great Britain to prevent our ship ments of goods to foreign nations. As a neutral nation, the United States may ship goods, directly or indirect ly, to belligerent countries, provid- ed the goods are not war materials or subject to use for war purposes. No nation has right to debar the Un- ited States from shipping even food stuffs to non-combatants. Internation- al law gives the United States that right, except when the ports are ac- tually blockaded and the blockade formally announced to all nations.
 A bellieerent possesses some rights of preemption and may take for his own use non-contraband goods desig- mated for his enemy. But there must be full payment for the commandeer- ed merchandise at it's mercantile val ues plus reasonable profit, gener- ally computed at ten per cent. Con- fiscation is altogether illegal. That the British government does not chal- lenge this doctrine is indicated by the full payment that has been made for the seized copper shipments. It would appear that a market capable of in- definite expansion has been opened for American copper. Of course, cop per consigned to Holland, for the krupps or other manufacturers of war machines is contraband and may be seized and confiscated. As to food

THAT VALDEZ DYKE MONEY.

Delegate Wickersham claims all credit for getting the $55,O0O appro priation for the Valdez dike. He must have done all his work in the Senate because:
 1. The item passed the Senate four times before it passed the House once, to-wit: as an independent bill bn the Rivers and Harbors bill, on the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill, and finally as rider on the Army bill. In the last form it went through the House when the conference re- port was accepted.
 2. Judge Wickersham never ut tered word for the appropriation on the floor of the House, as the Con- gressional Record shows.
 3. Judge Wickersham is known to have objected to having the money expended by the Alaska road com mission, and does not deny the fact.
Valdez daily prospector., 1914-10-20

confirmation to second term as judge Col. Richardson obtained sup port for him by personal appeals to southern senators, notably Culberson of Texas, then ranking Democratic member of the Senate judiciary con- mittee. Wickersham was finally thrown down in the light by his dear friend Roosevelt at the behest of Gov. Hoggatt.
 When the ex-judge got to Washing ton as delegate he thought it good business to list Richardson among "Guggenheim henchmen," a charge absolutely baseless. This and other ungrateful exhibitions lost him nu merous votes in Valdez in 1910, but a majority of his supporters clung to him.
 In 1912 Wickersham thought 1t good political business to throw in with Pinchot, Johnson, Heney, and the rest of the doublecross gang who ditched La Toilette after pledging him their support and staged the Roose welt third term farce. Wickersham tried to make pawns of his Republi can followers to curry favor with the man who had blockaded Alaska de velopment and who had given him the double cross few years before. He lost more supporters all over the ter ritory.
 And Judge Wickersham is still al ienating support constantly by fight ing everybody who does not take or ders from him.

In 1908 Wickersham received 85 per cent. of the vote of Valdez and a majority of 225 over all others. In 1910 he received 55 per cent. and a clear majority of 39 In 1912 he re- ceived less than 40 per cent. and the combined opposition vote exceeded his own by S3. Why?
 In 1908 Valdez was nearly unani- nous for Judge Wickersham because the people thought they knew him and believed he would devote his ad- mitted ability to the service of the territory. As soon as he reached Washington he began getting into rows with friends and men who might have been his friends. He made an absolutely false and malicious per sonal attack upon Col. Richardson, who had been his friend for years.

the two buildings are not sufficient to
accommodate the pupils of the suburb.

This is no utopian dream; II will be

Austrian government has so wisely
done, to conserve our ores, to set them
aside from further private exploitation,
and to prohibit expectation. This will
mean the relief Of tens OF thousands of

old adage applies here-Charity begins
at home.
The next step is a radium research
institution, which calls for about 5000
900. With such an institution, 1 could
acquire the larger amounts of radium

cases, and could test out a whole series
