BACKSTROM RETURNS
 FROM VACATION TRIP

J L. Backtsorm, Assistant United States Attorney, who yesterday re- turned here after a visit of several weeks to his old home in Mississippi and other points, reports consider able activity throughout all the States in business lines.
 In the South, as usual, people cannot see anything to the National election except the Democratic ticket Judging from comments in the Middle West and Western States, he states that it appears to be an even break between Harding and Cox with little or no political excite ment prevalent in those sections
 During his absence, MT Back strom attended the annual conyen- ton of the American Bar Associa- ton at St. Louis. Later he went 10 Mississippi and to the Ozarks. On his return he stopped off at Ket- chikan and represented the Govern ment in an alleged bootlegging case, the defendant Mrs. Rae Johnstone, being convicted and sentenced to three months in jail and to pay $1,000 fine. Notice of appeal was given and Mrs. Johnstcne was ad- mitted to bail.

Failing in his, they are satisfied with Secre- .ary Payne's plan to improve trans )crtation conditions as soon as leg station as outlined in the winter Congressional budget can be se- ,ured The mere criticism of the transportation companies will not suffice.
 Again the voters were disappoint- d when MT. Sutherland referred to he fisheries questions and it neces- ;ity for protection of this industry. No one disputed the fact that some steps must be taken to conserve the supply, but were offered nothing n the way of a suggestion as to how this was to be carried out. They argued that if they were eX- oected to draw up the regulations hey might as well appeal direct to Washington and not avail them elves of Mir Sutherland's services.
