 ALPINE GREENS

Paying the penalty for losing in the recent membership contest of the Alpine club, the Orangemen of the club will entertain the winning Greens at a luncheon at five o'clock Saturday afternoon on the Bench.
 The Orangmen want to know how many Greens will be present, Sd that they may make ample arrange ments. They therefore request that those intending to collect their re- ward for winning the contest, leave their names by FRIDAY NOON at one of thesa places: The Da&ly AL askan office, the Bank of Alaska, Pedersen Bros, Keller Bros. drug store, or with Mrs. W. L. Lands borough.
 Here is another request that the Orangemen make. They want every one to bring teaspoon, fork and @ cup. The luncheon, though real ly the payment of the orangemen for failing to get as many members as the Greens, will be the clubs first outing this spring.
 The committee in charge desires that the members wear their colors.

SAY FISHERIES
 ARE INPERILED

Declaring that the fisheries of Alaska are tmperiled by the Alexan- der bill, now pending in congress, the territorial legislature has pass ed a memorial, appealing to con- gress Ito grant to the people of Alaska the right to control and regulate our own fisheries"
 E The bill, according to the me- morial, a copy of which was receiY- ed today by the Daily Alaskan, would prohibit Alaska from leYying taxes upon the business Or property of the fisheries interests and thus ,rescinds the rights granted this territory by congress under the ter, ritOrial organic act and thereby re- tards the development of our ter ritory and the upbuilding of our public school system"
 Besides, the memorial continues, passage Of the bill, because of its provision to give title in perpetuty to ncIders of fish trap sites in Alaskan waters, would surely lead :. monopoly of the Alaskan fisherlp~ and forever exclude port able fishing gear from certain sec lions ra our tide water"

The Senate may as we'll submit to
the inevitable. The United States is
going dry for the duration OF the
war.
If the dry provision is not enacted
in the food-control bill, it will come
later in separate legislation. But it
is coming beyond all doubt.
The American people are in no
humor to trife with the food ques-
sion. They are not going tostolerate
the waste of millions of bushels OF
grain in the manufacture OF intoxi-
cants.
Moreover, the American people
know that alcohol is the foe OF clear
thinking and efficient acting; they
know that it burns up energy; they
know that it collects an enormous
tax yearly on productive wealth.

And the American people are Just
about through it for good They are

going to fatten on them in war time.
