GUARDS OBJECT TO ATTACK ON
 OUR DELEGATE Capt. Mock Says "Com- munication" in Dispatch Is Not Representative
 of Sentiment. PLEASED WITH INTEREST ir1- e+~,---F 4..t Home Guards Glad That Delegate and Governor Have Taken Inter-
 est in Them.
PLEASED WITH INTEREST

Capt George w. Mock, Command. CT, and other members of the Juneau Home Guards are incensed at the attack on Delegate Charles A. Sulzer | that was contained in an alleged communication" which appeared in the Dispatch last night. They not only do not question the statement that Delegate Sulzer aided in get ting arms for the Alaska Home Guards, but they have been pleased to know that he, as well as Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., took the interest they have in the organization.
 While not pretending to speak for the Home Guards as an organi- zation," said Capt. Mock, q know l am voicing the sentiment of others as we'll as myself when I say that the communication in the Dispatch was wholly uncalled for, and is ab- solutely misrepresentative. I am convinced that I know who wrote the article, or inspired it, and he is not and has not been member of the organization for sometime.
 There is no disposition on the part of the Home Guards to ques- tion the. claim that Delegate Sulzer was influential in securing arms for them, and it is matter of gratifi- cation that the Delegate to Congress and the Governor have taken so much interest in the organization
 Further, the slur contained in the Dispatch communication because of the failure of the ammunition to ar rive with the guns is purely gratuit- ous. l have seen the shipping pa pers and I know that it was through no fault of Gov. Riggs, Delegate Sul- ger or the intention of those who or dered the shipment to be made that the ammunition did not arrive with the guns. Undoubtedly the mistake will be corrected.
 '"The Home Guards are not in poli- tics, and it is outrageous to attempt to make it appear that they are any thing but appreciative of the laud- able interest the Governor and Dele. gate to Congress and others have taken in them m "To say that I am provoked and disgusted with this attempt, on the part of somebody who is more in- terested in making trouble than he is in the Guards, to discredit Alas ka's Delegate to Congress, is stating the case mildly. The Home Guards are thankful for
 whatever has been done for them by all concerned"

Divine Descent.

The incongruity of the Bible with the age of it's birth; it's freedom from earthly mixtures; it's original, unbor- rowed, solitary greatness: the sudden ness with which it broke forth amidst the general gloom; these to me are strong indications of it's divine de- scent; cannot reconcile them. with a human origin.-Channing

Washington, Nov. 1.-The truth about
the failure and delays Of the war de-
partnent In producing American air.
planes is unsparingly revealed in for
mer Supreme Court Justice Hughes
report made public last night. :.
1t is a story of inefficiency and con-
fusion Of purposes in high PLACES and
of violation Of criminal statutes by a
few officers in charge Of important
phases Of aircraft production.
Hope for a better showing in the
future is expressed in Mr.. Hughes
statement that under. the direction
Of Mr.. Ryan and Mr.. Potter there has
been improvement in organization and
measure"
The Findings in Brief.
The findings of Judge Hughes In
brief follows:
Col. Edward A. Deeds. formerly in
charge Of aircraft production. should be
tried by court martial for improperly
favoring the Dayton Wright Airplane
Company. holding airplane contracts,
and for making a false and mislead-
ing statement in regard to the pro-
gress of aircraft production. 1t having
been untrue at the time that any air
planes had been shipped to France, as
he had reported.
Officers found to have had trans
actions on behalf Of the government
with corporations in the pecuniary
81 no infa OF
should be prosecuted under section Il
of the criminal CODE
Lieut.. Col. Jesse G. Vincent violated
the statute by participating in transac-
lions with the Packard Motor Car Com
pany, of which he is stakeholder and
formerly was vice president.
Lieut.. Col. George w. Mixter. former
ly vice president Of Deer & Company
Moline, ILL.,, violated the statute, strictly
in serving in supervisory
capacity over inspections at the Curtis
Aeroplane and Motor Company, in
which he holds twenty FIVE shares OF
preferred stock.
General Conclusions.
The general conclusions and specific
suggestions made in former Associate
Justice Hughes report on aircraft pro-
duction are as follows:
/. The controlling facts and the con-
illusions in relation to the matters re-
viewed have been stated under APP
propriate headings. 1t would be i'm
possible to restate them in brief
summary. The defective organization
of the work of aircraft production and
the serious lack OF competent direc-
ton OF that work by the responsible
officers of the signal corps to which
the delays and waste were chiefly due
were matters for administrative cor
rection thru unification Of effort under
control.
The provisions Of the criminal stat
utes do not reach inefficiency. 1t is not
within the province OF this report to
make recommendations with respect to
administrative policy. but it should be
said that under the direction Of Mr..
Ryan ard MI. Potter there has been
in organization, and pro
gress has been made In gratifying
measure.
2. The evidence discloses conduct
which, although of reprehensible
character. cannot be regarded as al
fording a sufficient basis for charges
under existing statutes, but there are
