plaud President Harding's
: Proclamation of Education
I week.
To be sure every week ought to
be week of education.
Any week in which nothing is
learned is worse than wasted. Be
cause every neglect to learn some
new thing, to think some fresh
thought, to add some new item to
ones facts and conclusions, breeds
more indisposition to learn anything
new at all.
The idle mind rusts just as idle
machinery rusts. We must either
educate our minds and keep them
everlastingly at it, or be ounces and
bad citizens.
The true end of government and
society is not to make power and
riches. It is to make people.
Power and riches are good. But
popular intelligence and wisdom are
better.
i Any government or any society
which does not better its people
mentally and spiritually is failure,
even though it acquires vast terri
tories, accumulates vast riches, and
extends the sway of it's scepter and
the terror of its arms across the
world.
It is not only to the interest OF
every man and woman and child to
be constantly learning, but it is also
the duty of each of them in a re-
publican land.
No man can be as good citizen
as he ought to be, no woman can be
as good citizen as she might be-,
without constant education.
To know how one should vote on
some vital public question is just
as much an obligation of duty and
patriotism as it is to be ready and
willing to serve the nation in arms.
Of course we do not mean that
narrower sort of learning to which
many restrict their education.
J A man may go through all the
, schools and finally emerge from the
university blockhead. And man
may have scant acquaintance with
/ literature and no acquaintance at all
with Latin or Greek and be, in a
thigh sense, an educated man.
True education is not the acqulsl-
ttion of thousands Of facts, but the
liability to use facts as guides to right
conclusions the ability, in other
swords, to think straight to the point.
This kind of education is rare.
Many college professors never had a
bit of it. Many professional writer's
never thought a thought in their
lives. You saw that emphasized In
the hysteria that preceded and &C
companied our participation in the
war. And you see it verified all
around you every day in political,
financial, literary and press circles.
"We learn from thinking" says
Hegel in his profound work upon
the philosophy of history-"'we
learn from history that governments
and people never learn anything
from history"
That is profoundly true. People
\ learn to repeat historic narratives,
to recite historical facts, to recall
historical dates-but they never
learn to think what their collection
of narratives, facts and dates means.
! If the present Government and
the people of the United States IN
general had learned anything from
history, there would be no foreign
delegations now in Washington pro-
posing to us to tear up our only IN
surance policy against future perils
and disasters.
If the previous Government of the

'BEHRENDS SAYS
 C0NDIfI0NS ARE
 FAST IMPROVING
Finances Not Only Along Pa ci6c Coast But Entire
 Country Being Adjusted.

Financial conditions are i'm proving along the Pacific Coast and business is becoming as it should be-" said B. M. Behrends who with Mrs Behrends returned this after room on the steamer Alameda after a business and pleasure trip in the South for the past seven weeks. Mrs. Behrends accompanied her husband on the trip to the States as far South as Los Angeles and return
 When I say financial conditions are better, l mean not only on the Pacific Coast, where I visited, but over the entire country" continued Mr Behrends, as he halted for a minute in the midst of stacks oi letters and official business piled up on his desk to talk to an Elm pire representative.
 "The country could not keep ur the abnormal amount of business with foreign countries as we did dAring the war and for the months immediately following the end oi the war. We are adjusting our selves now, all over the country and the home consumption and the home trading are coming to the front again and we are getting used to new nations business.
 Alaska will also adjust herself and this adjustment is beginning Hundreds are going to return to Alaska, many who have been away from the country for years. When one meets little children on a steamer and they. say they are go- ing back home, they mean back to Alaska, for although they have lived in the States previously to coming to Alaska, they look upon their foster land as their home, and are now coming back to renfin.
 On the Alameda today are many who have been away from Alaska for years. They have been in var ious businesses in the States but they believe they can return North md start anew, and the majority of these arrivals arc going to make AlPska their future home, ana are going to forget the States.
 Wherever one goes along the Pacific Coast former Alaskans are met. who are either preparing to re turn or beginning to have that feel ing. others are actually on the road, as will be seen from the pas sen gers on the Alameda 1"

APPOINTMENT OF HAzELET "C|NCH"' ;
 STATES STEELE
Cordova Newspaperman Re- turning from South Says
 Hazelet Sure of Job.

'The appointment of George C. Hazelet for Governor of Alaska is as much of a certainty as anything could be which is yet to transpire, ' declared Harry G. Steele, editor and publisher of the Cordova Times and likewise interested in the Seward Gateway who arrived in Juneau today from Seattle on the Steamer Alameda. q look upon the appoint ment of Mir. Hazelet as a virtual cinch," declared MT. Steele
 MT. Steele accompanied MT. Haze let and National Committeeman J. c. Mcbride to Seattle about two weeks ago. He has been in that. city since that time. MT. Hazelet is also staying in Seattle for the present. "We have had nothing but encourag- ing news from Washington regard ing Mir. Hazelet's candidacy, and it seems, everywhere I have been, to be a foregone conclusion that he will be appointed" he stated.
 Mir. Steele said that most of Judge Wickershams supporters have ap- parently become convinced that their candidate cannot be put over and are simply trying to stop the ap pointment of Mir Hazelet. And if such is their purpose, I am sure that they are meeting with no success Not only will Mir. Hazelet be ap pointed, but his confirmation by the Senate is practically sure" he de clared.
 MT, Steele is stopping at the Gas tineau Hotel while in town. He hopes to remain in Juneau until the next trip of the Northwestern tC the Westward, but may go on the Alameda after it's return from Skag way.

peace with it's rewards distributed among the inspirations of equal opportunity.
 Revolution has no place in Am erica. If revolution does insist upon overlapping the established order, let other people make the tragic experiment. Ours is con stitutional freedom where popular will is law supreme and minori- ties are sacredly protected 1 had rather submit our industrial con troversies to the conference table in advance than to a settlement table after conflict and suffering"
 Touching briefly upon the tariff, the President said: Tt has been proved again and again we cannot, while throwing our markets open to the world, maintain American standards of living and opportunity and hold our industrial eminence in such in equal competition. Pre- served Aemrican standards require our higher production costs to be reflected in a tariff on imports
 Opportunity is calling for new and trade, he declared, adding, "Wt shall answer it best by meeting the demand of a surpassing home mar ket, by promoting self reliance il production and by bidding enter prise genius and efficiency to carry our cargoes in American bottoms tC all parts of the world.
 The new President bespoke oi homes in America, where mothers freed from the necessity of long hours of toll beyond their own doors may preside as befits the hearth stone American citizenship.
 The country should be free iron blotchos of distressed poverty, he said, and the nation must find 8 way to guard against unemploy- nent. There is no short cut tC making these ideals glad realities The world has witnessed again and again the futility and mischief of ill considered remedies for social and economic disorders But we arc mindful today as never before of the friction of modern industrialism and we must learn it's causes and reduce it's evil consequences by sober and tested method"
 In conclusion tho President said My service is the supreme com mitment of my life. I would re- joice to proclaim the ere of the golden rule and crown it with the autocracy of service. 1 pledge an administration wherein all agencies of government are called to serve and ever promote an understanding of government purely as expression of' popular will.
 II accept my part with single mindeGness of purpose and humil- ity of spirit and implore the favor and guidance of God in His heaven. With these l am unafraid, and con fidently face the future"
 After reading verse from Micah he ended with, this I plight to God and country"

|. s. ATTITUDE IT IN
 SOUTH AMERICA NOT UNDERSTOOD
Must Not Only Be Right But Seem to Be Right, Says
 Uruguayan Minister.

MONTEVIDEO, March 4, The United States should not only be right in it's conduct toward South and Central American republics but should seem to be right. Dr. Juan A. BuerO, Foreign Minister of Uru pondents in an interview the othar day.
 Dr. Buero made this statemcL: when asked by the correspondents concerning the prejudice reported in South America against the Unito1 States because of actions taken at various times in regulating the af fairs of some of the less stable republics in the tropic zone E
 Uruguay" he replied. "thorough- ly understands the United States and the reasons for it's actions. How ever, some of the nations that have had difficulty with the United Statey may not understand the North Am erican position. Furthermore, there are a number of agitators through. out South America willing to play upon the minds of the people to influence them against North Am. erica and make them believe that 7 the great Northern Republic is ac- tuated by spirit of aggression.
 "Therefore. permit me to suggest in the interest of American solidar- ity and universal good will among American Republics that the United States not only be but seem to be right in it's dealings with South and Central American re2pblica Tho facts and ihe aPr earaace' should CO incide."
 Discussing the League of Nation l Dr. Beuro declared that withou. North America it could not be a 5uc- eees. lt could not do without the physical. moral and financial sup port of that nation, he said
 Dr. Beuro was asked whether he believed that Pan American League along the lines proposed by President Brum of Uruguay was in compatible with the League of Ma tions.
 Most certainly I do not" he re- piled. The Americas. if they wish to retain the world of influence that is coming to them, must have an American solidarity Before a meeting of the League of Nations at Geneva the Americans would hold a meeting of their own to deter mine the policies that the Americas desire and by presenting a solid front, make their influence felt much more powerfully.
