BRITISH GOVERNMENT
 IS LONG ON MEMORY
By International News scrvIcc)

CBy International News Scrvice)
 LNODON. Aug. 5.-On one of the Sychelle islands, a British possession in the India ocean, there will shortly be little colony of minor dusRy big wigs from Africa.
 They have all misbehavcd them. selves in varying degrees by plotting against British interests and have been removed for the peace of the country. with all their cherished be- Iongings, from out-ofdate top hats to harems.
 The chief offender is Khaled-bin Barghash, a son of former Sultan of Zanzibar who tried to seize the Sultauate in 1896 and then took refuge with the Germans in East Africa. With him are a number of minor chiefs who supported him.
 They will all live on the same isl and, under the supervision of the To- cal representatives of the British government, and will have nothing to do except eat the food that will be given them and enjoy the tropical sunshine and sea breezes.

PLEASING THE TOURIST

Efforts expended in pleasing the tourists wEo come here will not prove in vain. Everyone in the community can help. 1t will be worth while for every Alaskan having the opportunity to come into contact with the visitors to do his utmost to acquant them with Alaska.
 J'p in this NorthIand where the days are little longer, the grip a little stronger, where skies are bIucr, failures fewer and friendships trucr, it will be no mistake to make friends of those who come for even day. If they come and merely pass without kindly word and re- turn without the human touch and without hav ing ~lcancd first hand from the lips of some sourdough some knowledge of the land they may consider their trip a failure. It is easily uoiccabIr Co those who have studied the tour iSt~ how keen they are to learn of the region and how eagerly they drink in every word from some od resident.
 Breach of the convcutionaIitv of the outside world bt forming a quick acquaintance with them will be houorod more in the breach than n the observance. The new acquantanccship i< mutually beneficial The people of the North, land. living their lives of long isolation, will benefit tremendously from hearing q little something new from the pilgrims from afar Those coming will also profit if they can carry home fund of northern facts and pleasant rec olcctions.
 Some little energy given to the problem of bringing the sourdough and the chcechalo to- gcther will be well directed and will repay. The sourdough might do well to remember that the tourist coming here is largely from the Allan lis Scaboard, and expended considerably more than thousand dollars to come and return. In addition the tourists distribute many good dollar incidental to each days sightseeing.
 The message they take bacl, of the NorthIand will be largely pcssimistic or optimistnc in pro portion to the treatment they receive in their personal contact and the facts they are enabled to glean from those along their long trail.

gain. But put yourselves over there
and think your viewpoint would be
different"
Before the supply service was CO.
ordinated, everybody, Mr.. Dawes
said, was pulling in different direc-
tiOns.
1--WE have got the same trouble
here" he added, with ten Cabinet
officers each trying to get everything
for himself, regardless of the COM
mon welfare. The President ought to
stop it.
Mr.. Dawes said mistakes were
made.
Discussing the subject of unified
control over the Allies, finally ac-
complished by the selection of Field
Marshal Foch, General Dawes said
that the morning after the final
agreement on this, "that traitor,
Colonel Repington, published it in
The London Morning Post. They let
hi moff with fine of 10000, but he
ought to have been shot,"
The witness declared that General
Pershing was always willing to sub
init the unified control-"to do any
thing for the common good"
THE British came to it," he said,
after four years of pealousies, but
not until they were threatened with
extinction did they do what they
should have done in the first year of
the war. It's just the same with these
Government departments down here.
They are all jealous of each other.
Unless you get an axe you can't get
them into one common plan.
President Harding should hold
an axe over the head of Cabinet
member and chop his head off if he
should try to spend money on plan
of his own without cooperation of
the various Governmental activities.
The Government needs complete re-
organization and needs it badly"
