 The Rev. William Rice is dying of hunger, self-inflicted, in his moun- tain cabin in Kentucky. A vision mad told him to sacrifice himself to con vert his neighbors. He has eaten nothing for 70 days. and may he dead as this is written.
 His family and neighbors sit around him, watching with admira- tion his devotion to an idea. No longer ahle to. walk he turns his head painfully on his pillow. and viii be gone soon.
 This well-meSning man Is today curiosity. A few centuries ago there were thousands like him, believing that they were pleasing God by ;or- turing their body. They tried self denial of every kind. Many abstainsd from bathing, believing that to be filthy was to be holy. They gave up meat and gave up many other things. They tried to give up salt but found that life was impossible without it.
 The Rev. MT. Rice shows courage snd determination. Perhaps he wou.i be surprised if he could know what the Ruler of this universe wouii think about tiny, imperfect crea- ture, on miserably small and i'm perfect earth. starving himself to death to please omnipotence.
 Baha Ullah, well meaning enthusi- ast, planned to unite all religions Tn one. He did not realize that up to how, mans chief pleasure is fighting. Unite them all in one religion and you end great deal of the fighting. MT. Ullah died and went, let us hope, to a united heaven. His shrine Is at Acca. His descendants and follow CTS are fighting for possession of that shrine.
 Serious outbreaks have occurr d ana the government of Palestine has been compelled to step in and take charge of the shrine to avoid blood shed.
 America is somewhat interested be- cause many "Bahaisi are here. You can always depend on America 70 take up anything new, religion or anything else. American Bahais ate puildlns million dollar temple on the north shore in Chicago. Mean while the one uniform religion for all the world does not appear. Men have the governments and religions that they deserve.
 Solomon could settle a woman,s quarrel, but neither he nor anybodv ever understood women. or even ona of them You read in the same dav about Mrs. Culp of Ohio, and Mrs. Phillips of San Francisco.

 Mrs. Culp, who has nine children. packed the Rev. MT. Culp's val;se said, T forgive you,' kissed him ana the young lady goodbye as they left.
 Mir. Phillips, his wife says, liked another woman. Mrs. Phillips called on the other woman and pounded her to death with hammer and a stone.

When this strike ends the people will know whether 1t is possible or not for state and national govern ments combined to set aside the power of organized labor.
 Kidnapping and flogging strike breakers with shooting on an ex- tensive scale. indicates that there W J be much violence and trouble before the object aimed at is attained. namely, the establishment of the opea shop in all matters affecting public necessities.

Recommended by Flory
to Sec'y Wallace.

A consolidation of all road work

the local highway system under u
s Forest Service through the Blu
reau of Public Roads, is expected to
take place within the very near fu-
ture, according to statements OF AL
aska Road Commission and Forest
Service officials Negotiations hav-
ing such a step in view have been
pending between the two bureaus for
some time and satisfactory arrange
ments were made last week between
Col James G.. Steese and District
Forester Charles II. Flory for the
transfer.
The consolidation under the Forest
Service, said Mr.. Flory today, has
ibeen recommended to Secretary Wal
lace. of the Department of Agricul-
ture. Mr. Flory has submitted all
data available on the matter to the
Department, together with plans for
the work as well as estimates to
cover the additional expenditures re
quired.
the local highway system this season
is already under Forest Service au-
thorization and consists of the AUX
Bay.Tee Harbor extension of Glacier
Highway. Under the arrangements
agreed upon by Colonel Steese and
Mr.. F1ory, the latter's organization
will take over the maintenance of
Glacier Highway which has hereto
fore been done by the Alaska Road
Commission, and the Juneau-Thane
and Juneau-Perseverance roads.
The work will be done by the Blu
reau of Public Roads. It's organiza-
ton is already in shape to take over
the ground ready to start the work
as soon as the transfer has been
sanctioned by Secretary Wallace, said
Mr.. Flory
Other projects formerly sponsored
hv the Alaska Road Commission in
Southeastern Alaska which it is pro
posed to transfer to the Forest Serv-
ice are located at Wrangell, Sitka,
Skagway and Yakutat. Authoriza-
tions for the work at both Wrangell
and Yakutat have been approved by
the Department Of Agriculture.
When the transfer of all the work
recommended has been effected, said
Colonel Steese, the Alaska Road
Commissions activities in this sec
ton OF the Territory will he limited
to the Haines system and at Straw
berry point. 1t has also turned over
roads on Kenai Peninsula to the For
est Service. The result of these
transfers, he said, would be to make
available additional funds for the
Alaska Road Commission for expendi-
ture on roads in the Interior.
