ANCHORAGE BATTLE CRY


 'ESutherand and the Alaskan Engineering Copper river interests Let this sink in |deep. p.'-Anchorage Daily Times, April 5, 1922
 The people of Anchorage will easily call to mind an article of similar import to the above appearing in it's issue of April 22 1920, when it's distinguished publisher was candidate for National Committeeman. The article con tained the following statements:
 "Hazeet must be governor in order to bring influence to block the navy appropriations for the development of the Matanuska Coal Fields;' and the horrible spectacle of thriv- ing industry in the Boring river was held up for the people of this section to contemplate Every person in Anchorage knows that there was not then and has not been since any coal developed at Cordova or in its vicinity and that its business men are looking to the Matanuska fields for their fuel supply, but still in order to obtain few votes by exciting a feeling of prejudice, if necessary, the An chorage Daily Times stands ready to publish statements for which there is absolutely no foundation in fact. There is one thing the people of Alaska must learn, and that is that the real interest of the Territory will be best forwarded by working in harmony, and not by the people of the various sections pulling ali cross-puIposes. The people of Anchorage are not going to benefit themselves by keep Ing the people of Cordova from getting some thing and the same holds true regarding the people of Cordova. These towns are situated in the midst of natural resources sufficient to make both prosperous, and resorting to a cut throat process will simply retard that pros perity. They are both in the Third Division. James l.. Galen is of that division, and think ing people should realize that they will be better represented by a resident of their own division than by person whose home and in terests aro to be found Ill another. Above all there should be no linking of the name of Mr. Sutherland with that of the Alaskan Engineer ing Commission. Mr.. Sutherland is support ing the New Bill. This bill provides for the leasing of the government railroad in Alaska direction of the Secretary of the Interior who declares he has a plan for leasing the road and it must be the expectation of carrying out that plan during his administration. MT. Galen has declared himself emphatically opposed to such leasing program, and of being in favor of its continued maintenance and operation by the government. This is essential to the development of the country tributary to An chorage. The people of Anchorage should let these facts sink in and sink in deep and not follow any sham battle cries. based on section al prejudice and private spleen.

POOR JONES

Several ladies sat in the club room discussing the virtues of their husbands, over their knitting.
 "Mr. Jones'" said one of them, re- ferring to her life partner, never drinks and never swears, indeed, he has no bad habits"
 Does he ever smoke?" someone asked.
 "Yes, he likes good cigar just after he has eaten a good meal. But on an average I suppose he doesn't smoke more than once a month"
 Some of her club mates smiled but she didn't seem to understand the reason.

fiict with large and growing section
of German opinion and would do the
very thing that Clemenceau wishes to
avoid. What we desire Is for America
and England help France, not the left
bank OF the Rhine
"Clemenceau in his address offered no
practical solution for the present diff
culties in Europe he said "The policy
recommend is collaboration with the
present German Government and peo-
pie. While the mlitarists in France do
not trust the German people we advocate
trusting them. but not the milltarist
party there. We say give Germany
time 20 get on her legs and. then she
will pay.
Instead OF the huge reparations I
advocate the employment of skilled labor

rebuild the towns and cities destroyed
