French Against
German Food
Credits Over Here

Paris, Dec. 2S.-The French govern
ment is opposed to Germany's proposal
to obtain food credits in the United
States. it is learned. because it is sat
isfied that Germany does not lack food.
The government. however. probably
will delay taking final decision until
report on food conditions in Germany
is made to the reparation commission
by the committee ON guarantees.
The allied governments meanwhile
are exchanging views regarding Ger
manys demand for priority for these
projected food credits. The French op-
position is due not only to the convic-
tion that food is not lacking in the
Reich. but because the French say they
know that during the last few months
Germany has spent enormous sums for
copper, buying beyond all her ordinary
industrial requirements. The question
is raised as to what use this material
is to be put.

FiRd Evsfythipe is working ott

FiRF Evsfythips is working oBt B. k.
 There was a tims, in the not far distant past, when Hyder was just Rn infant, and wanted to be petted, and coddled, and loved up bit, We were little, and very unused to the worlds rough buffetings, and we wanted sympathy.
 But when we stuck our head out from under the wee blankets in the baby buggy. who slapped our face and told US to be quiet?
 Now we don't care. We are wearing pants, and are big enough to chop the kindling and muck out the hen house. But infantile mern- ories survive.
 Nevertheless, if Ketchikan now wants to assume the role of the big protecting brother, we are glad.
 Maybe later on we will meet up1 with some big burly who wants to give us a licking. Maybe then Big Brother will hop in and throw a well-aimed brick.

OUR BIG BROTHER

1 c. M. Taylor, Ketchikan agent
 for the Alaska Steamship Co.,, has
 written a nice letter which we are indeed glad to acknowledge, and the contents of which, or at least as much as is of public interest, we take pleasure in passing on to our readers.
 It will be remembered that a few weeks ago the Miner published the telegrams that had been passing between the Hyder Commercial As sociation and the Alaska Steamship Combany in Seattle. Among these was one quoting the Ketchikan agent as having reported that the Hyder wharf was in no condition to permit the landing of the Jeff erson. MT. Taylor explains this satisfactorily and the Miner can tell him now that we are fully con- vinced he had no intention of try ing to knock Hyder business" as might be inferred from the bare telegram without a subsequent ex- planation of the facts concerning it. A few days ago we also read with considerable interest a front-page, one-column article in the Ketchi- kan Daily News which was chiefly devoted to explaining away the wrong impression" created by the Miner headlines. Incidentally, a mild reprimand was given the Fly der Commercial Association for "a bit of procrastination" in replying to the first telegram from John H. Bunch of Seattle, and the editor of the Miner is given a slap on the wrist and told that he owes the News a cigar. AS to that, if Editor Bennett will come over here he may be sure of the cigar; and if his erstwhile city editor comes along there will still be enough to go round.
 As to "procrastination." the sec retary and other members of the Association put in several strenu- ous days securing the data and in- formation desired by Mir. Bunch. The questions he asked as a busi- ness representative of the steam ship company could not be ans- wered haphazard.
 The News says: We feel safe Ill saying that we voice all Ketchi- kan interests in rejoicing with Hyder people over the completion of the new dock. together with hav- ing secured for themselves the as- surance of regular steamer service.
 MT. Taylor says: The Alaska Steamship Company, their agent and the Ketchihan Commercial Club are all deeply interested in RYDER and ask their coo ooeratiOn."
