CONVENTION NEWS.

Telegraph companies operating from San Francisco are prepared to handle virtually an unlimited amount of press reports on the Democratic national convention now in session in that city.
 One company alone-the Western Union Telegraph company-has made improvements in its plant at a cost of S5OO,0OO that will take care of one million words daily in addi tion to its regular business. The Postal Telegraph Cable company has also increased its facilities and news agencies and associations are ready to move quickly an augmented load" they will carry over wires leased from telephone companies.
 Under the multiplex automatic system, that permits four messages to be carried each way-eight alto gether-on one wire, the Western Union is prepared to take care of 250,000 words of press matter for evening papers and 750,00O for morning papers each day. No ad- ditional wires were put in, only channels" for extra sets Of auto matic instruments being added The multiplex system is almost twice as fast as the Morse, in which the message is ticked off by hand, and the company now handles 65 per cent of its business by the new method.
 The company has installed F miles of pneumatic tubes to carry messages directly into it's main op- erating room. where an intricate system of belt conveyors makes t possible to get each message sen. within one minute.
 With its new improvements, the Western Union plant is the most modern in the world, and the third largest in the United States.

LOS ANGELES PLAN.

A plan to enlist 12.O00 American Legion members in Los Angeles in a campaign to reduce the high cost of living, under the direction of the city markets bureau, was re- gently announced by Mayor Mere dith P. Snyder. --.
 The mayor said he proposed to close the city's chain of markets to the sale of produce which has gone through the hands of middlemen. Farmers in surrounding territory, under the proposed system, would be invited to send their produce direct to the markets, and aid fur nished them to do so by the city, If necessary.
 "The success of this plan would depend upon there being an imme- diate sale of the products, the mayor continued. "To that end we intend to lay our plans before the two local posts of the Legion and ask the members to help secure GUS toners. The membership of the posts probably represents families totaling 6O,OOO individuals, and if these patronize the markets under the new system it will be more than sufficient to start things off. The result, I am confident, will be that the farmers will get much better prices and the consumers will get better food at less cost than they do now"

AMONG ALASKA NEEDS.

If Alaska will ever forge ahead to the standard of prosperity to which her great resources warrant, those within the Territory must take a liberal view toward Outside capi- tai invested in the Territory, de- clares the Seattle Alaska Dispatch There has been protest from the North for some years that the legis- lative powers at Washington and bureaus have done nothing to un- lock the great resources of the Ter ritory. On the other hand. there lis a growing complaint on the part 'of Outside investors in the Terri tory that Alaskans do not deal lib- |erally with these investors.
 There will be little gained for Alaska if Congress unlocks her great resources if capital cannot be se cured to make them producing. What the substantial business in terests of Alaska should do is to create taxation board in Alaska, composed of substantial business men, who can hold meetings and arrive at some fair basis to adjust taxation for the Territory There is complaint that these matters have not been fairly administered. Every Alaskan coming to the States seek ing money has encountered com- plaint on the part of investors re. sarding unjust taxation or discrim- ination. Not only must the in vestors be dealt fairly with by Alas kans. but their interests should be protected against federal burdens.

A BILLION DOLLARS FOR CANDY

On the basis of tax receipts, trea- sury officials estimate that the Am erican people will spend one billion dollars for candy this year. ''yet they complain of sugar shortage v says Secretary Houston.
 The reason, of course, is perfect ly simple, points out the New York World. Sugar for household use is a necessity, and to be obliged to pay 30 cents a pound for it is crime for which somebody ought to go to jail. Government should intervene to protect the helpless consumer Yet sugar transformed into candy and multiplied in price is luxury for which SIPS pound is not too much to pay as tribute to the great American god of self-indulgence
 A billion dollars, even under in- Hated modern standards of expendi- ture, is a colossal sum of money. It is s25O,OOO,OOO more than it cost by taxation to run the extravagant Government of the United States in the year before the war. Time was, and very recently. when an appropriation of billion dollars by Congress was public scandal. Yet the American people approriates this vast amount to satisfy the cravings of its sweet tooth.
 That is its privilege and pleasure, of course, but it should not whine over a condition due to it's glut- tony. It. cannot eat its sugar in the form of candy and have it too

Cravat is another word for one we
are hearing often these days. Cravat
means Jugo-Slav 1t is a corruption Of
the word Croat. During the reign of
Louis XIV the French copied from

CrOatian regiment a scarf which they
wore around their neclss. It was
something new to the French and
they took to it readily with the re-
suit that cravats became quite popu-
