FATHER SENDS GREETING
TO HIS SON IN FRANCE

A Cordova father sent the following
patriotic effusion to his son, who en-
listed in Uncle Sans aviation corps,
and is now somewhere in France:
We are with you, boy, through thick
and thin,
We are all allied in one blood kin;
We extend our hand, with a reassur-
ing shake
We know that you will make the Hun
quake
You must feel and know that your
mother is nigh
In your airplane flight so swift, and
high
That a sweetheart is watching that
mud-defiled trench,
Boombed and battered by hell fire and
foul gas stencil;
And your father can see that long line
of Huns
Driven and inspired, by me undt Colt
and sons.
The self-appointed master of a nation
of serfs
Modified and drilled since the days
of their births.
En- masse, in formation, like the silly
buffalo,
They blunder forward to strike a
cowardIy blow
A nation of house servants, always,
awaiting command,
Cowardly. crying "Kamerad," when
caught in our land.
Military weaklings they, in the sem
blance of man,
Their brutal power directed by an un
holy clan.
Your fraternity is applauding. your
courage sublime,
AS you drift hither and thither in con
quest divine.
| And your old home town with you
| will acclaim
The fruits of your victory in dem
ocracy's name.

met Colt at the cross roads o

WORKNENS COMPENSATION ACT
REVIEWED BY VALDEZ LAWYER

/ Notice of such election or with
drawal shall be forthwith posted by
such employer in conspicuous places
in and about his place of business"
Equality Not Wanted
Nothing could be easier or fairer
than this. But the corporate lobby
lists who damned the Alaska "compen-
sation law" through the legislature Of
1915 omitted this provision while they
were lifting half of the Kansas law
bodily into the Alaska act. 1t is hard
ly necessary to argue that they were
rot working for "pitiless publicity" in
the matter of notice to employees.
Third. While the allowance in case
of death is liberal in view of the fact
that it includes all cases regardless
of negligence. the allowances for Grip
ping and other partial disabilities are
small.
Fourth The act applies only to
mines. In every one of the thirty-five
states which have real compensation
laws all hazardous employments are
included Why should such a Law in
clude only mining in Alaska, ana ex-
clude sawmills, railroads, canneries?
The answer is easy. The Alaska law
was enacted by and for the two big
Juneau mining companies They fore
saw that within short time an hon
est compensation law would be enact
ed in Alaska. The demand was grow
ing. So they took time by the fore
lock and secured the enactment of an
emasculated law that contained every
thing usually found in such laws to
the advantage of the employer and left
out as much as they could of usual
provisions useful to employees.
Amendment of the compensation
law ought to be an issue in the cam
paign of 1918 and candidates for the
legislature forced to declare their po-
sitiOn.

pected because courts are reluctant
to lay themselves open to the charge
of usurping legislative powers. In this
case the courts have said that if the
law is defective it is up to the Iegisla-
ture to amend it.
That the law ought to be amended
in order to make it a real compensa-
ton law IS easily demonstrated. Sew

Compulsory Arbitration
First. Compulsory arbitration is a
feature of the compensation laws of
several states. The arbitration provi-
sion of the Illinois law was incorpor-
ated almost verbatim, one section be-
ing taken from Nevada, in an amend
ment which passed the Alaska SEN
ate of 1917 but was defeated in the
house. An arbitration plan which
works satisfactorily in a great indus
trial state like Illinois and in a sparse
by settled mining state like Nevada
ought to do fairly we'll for Alaska,
but corporate lobbying defeated it.
The arbitration plan offered pro-
vides that in case of injury to an
employe if he can not agree with the
employer on the measure of compen-
sation under the law either party may
serve notice on the other of a de-
mand for arbitration and in such case
each party must name an arbitrator,
the two arbitrator to name a third.
Ii they cannot agree the judge of the
district court is to name the third ar
bitrator, The arbitrator meet with
in a few days, take evidence and
make an award. Either party is al
j9wed an appeal from the award to
the district court within twenty days
It is hardly necessary to suggest that
there would be few appeals from
awards made in this way.
The existing law simply gives the
injured workman the right to sue in
the district court. How that works is
shown by the history of a recent Val
dez case A man was injured in a
mine in January 1916; his case was
tried' at Valdez in January 1917; the
Judgment was affirmed by the circuit
court of appeals in January 1918, and
, the plaintiff will probably get his
money in March 1918.
Notice of Rejection
Second. The law of 1915 provides
that an employer or employee who does
not wish to be bound by the law must
file notice in the recorders office of
the precinct in a form prescribed, but
a manifestly unfair advantage is given
to the employer, without doubt inten-
tional. He simply has to file his notice
on the employee, swear to the service
and then file the notice.
From this it is plain that the en-
pIoyer in every case is given actual

out severe battles fought to finish Ger
many cannot obtain peace. These state
ments were made during an intervie"
with German newspaper correspondents
at Great Headquarters on March IL and
reported in German newspapers oi tha1
date which have been received here.
Field Marshal Won Hndenburg was
interviewed at the same time, and the
two German leaders apparently were
convinced that for Germany force was
needed to bring about peace. The chief
auartermaster general SAID concerning
the fighting which has since broken out
IN northern France
The final fighting in the west, OF course,
cannot be compared. to the fighting IN
Galicia and IN Italy. The enemy has

BATTLE MUST BE FOUGHT OUT.
But however heavy the fighting may
be. the battle must be fought out, because,
without it, peace is not attainable

the Berliner Tagcblatt, IN reporting the
interview, described Won Hlndenburg

while Ludendortf gave the impression OF
having strength of volcanic heat, Dut
curbed by will The correspondent SAYS
that when the conversation turned to
events in the east, Field Marshal Won
Hindenburg referred to charges that IN

violence" said it was necessary TO OBJ
tain frontier safeguards.
PEACE BY FORCE ONLY WAY
"As We wanted peace, we had To bring
it about by force, WAS the lnterlec-
ton of General Ludendorff-
Peace in the east meant tremendous
relief for the Germans in the west, Iuden-
dorff said adding:
Now We are about to gain the as
cendancv numerically. on course, the
transportation Of troops from the east
because Of the bad condition OF the raul
roads cannot be effected hy tomorrow
But at anv rate our position already Is
such that we do not have to ask, looking
lIp anxiouslv: Where will the enemy at
tack - We ourselves are III q position TO
assume the offensive wherever we desire.
Referring to France, Gen. Iudendortt
said:
we may we'll say, without exaggera-
ton. that France has dug her own grave.
She IS about to bleed herself to death.
Undoubtedly thc~french are brave sol
diers"
Lieutenant General von ARDEN, the
military critic, in the Berliner 'fageblatt
on March 20, the day before the beginning
of the offensive, in an analysis OF the inter
view with the military leaders, wrote.
"Thc German army leaders look for
ward with grave concern to the final light
ing. The saving of German blood they
have at all times considered rs sacred
duty But the German people and Their
allies will have to accept the necessity
that the final battle must be fought out.
