SEWARD WRITER GOES EAST
 FOR MEETING WITH FORD

:
 The persistent report that Dan Sutherland will not be a candidate for reelection. and the equally per sistent rumor that Thomas B. Dray- ton will be a contestant for the Re publican nomination have many of the earmarks of a deal arranged before the last delegate election, says a recent issue of the Seward Gateway. This is particularly so, points out the Seward paper, when taken in connection with other re ports coming from high political circles. All things considered, the situation will bear watching On top of which, the paper admits that it doesn't know anything about the matter except as indicated by sur face appearance"
 Continuing, the Gateway says:
 The two matters may be purely accidental and unrelated, but at the time the reports of Sutherland's retirement began to appear in the newspapers, other reports began to drift in from the Outside that Hen " Ford would like to have Drayton represent the Territory in Con- gress. Very soon after that it be- came known generally that Ford had summoned his Alaska literary representative to a conference at Detroit early in September. and that the conference will bear upon Alaska

TIMES ARE TOUGH?

Five billions of dollars, says the New York World, is certainly lot of money for the people of the United States to spend for luxuries and amusements in a year, and this, 1t seems, is g minimum estimate, based on the Federal taxes collect ed. The billion dollars spent for movies and regular theaters would pay a years interest on the nation al debt. Half of billion went for ice cream, soda water, etc. Per fumes and cosmetics cost consum- CTS fifty millions. and the public paid taxes of a million and a half just for the privilege of chewing gum.
 No doubt the last item IS as use ful as any to illustrate the deceptive effect of personal expenditures as stated in terms of national expendi- lures When a nation of more than one hundred million people, mostly prosperous. sets out to buy things the aggregate of purchases is sure to be so colossal as to stagger the everyday imagination.
 To counteract this lavish expendi- ture the Thrift Division of the De- partment of the Treasury has in- stituted a campaign to discourage the indiscriminate buying of non essential things Even 2 Treasury clerk might falter at the attempt to classify luxuries and distinguish them from necessaries. In which category should toilet soap be put, and bathtubs, books, tobacco, and vacation trips? ...- ..~.
 Such a classification may have a statistical value but civilized man finds the so-called non-essentials too necessary to his comfort and con venience to dispense with They are essentials while his money lasts. and all that any thrift propaganda can do is to show him the unwis- dom of buying them when he can not afford 1t.
