TEXTILE DARONS' AIDE
FAVORS CHILD LABOR

WASHINGTON, March 2O.-David
Clark, editor of the Southern Textile
Bulletin, Charlotte, N. c., made a saw
age attack on the United States chill
dren's bureau and the theory Of fed
eral regulation of child labor laws
before the house judiciary commit
tee.
Mr.. Clark assured the committee
that he opposes child labor--if the
state. prohibits it, but he does not IA
vor federal Intervention. He could
not cite a single instance, however,
where he even advocated state con-
troll of child labor, or improvement of
their working conditions.
The witness was handled rghly
by the committee. Congressman Fos-
ter of Ohio quoted from an editorial
published in Clarke's paper after the
first federal law was set aside by the
United States supreme court.
Congressman Foster asked Clark
whether he was spokesman for the
children working in textile mills, and
why he did not call on these children
to join with him in celebrating the
courts decision that they were privi-
legged to work II hours a day.
Clark has been a leader in opposi-
tion to federal child labor laws, and
loudly insists that this is a matter
for the various states. He was forced
to acknowledge he has done nothing
to correct the child labor evil though
the supreme court endorses his states
rights position.

AERIAL MAIL TRANSPORTATION.

Delegate Sutherland has again shown his in terest in the Territory by having the air mail ser vice bill extended to take in Alaska. The delegate was much interested in Aviator Eielson' contract to carry the mail from Fairbanks to the Kuskokwm district successfully concluded last fall and thru statistics gathered from these flights he interested the posoffice department in further air mail routes Alaska is in need of air mail service than many of the States, which are served by railroads and stage lines. The long distances between AL aska towns makes for delay and costly mail deliv- ery Last summer the Gateway received the Kusko printed At the present time Kuskokwim mail re- quires from two to two months and half in deliv- cry, which is made by dog sled The Bristol Bay and Nome mails also could be delivered from Sew ard in about twelve hours after their arrival here. The distance to Nome airline is less than 600 miles, and the distance to Bristol Bay points, which could be included in the Nome route is about 400 miles, probably less. The Nome district, the vast Klsko- kwim basin, the Bristol Bay section, and many out lying parts of Alaska be served by airplane peditiousy and with but slight increase in cost the present methods of transportation.

A WORTHY CREED

Although it has been widely published, ''The American s Creed, " adopted by congress in 1919, is not as we'll known to the citizens of the country as it should be.
 This creed was selected through contest, open to all Americans, for the purpose of securing "the best summary of the political faith of America. ? The author of the successful manuscript was Will jam Tyler Page, descendant of President Tyler.
 The phrases composing it are taken from the Preamble and the Constitution of the United States the Declaration of Independence the Oath of Ale glance and from utterances of distinguished patri- ots, all woven together into complete and lofty sentiment, as follows:
 I believe in the United States of America as Government of the people, by the people, for the people, whose just powers derived from the consent of the governed; democracy ill a republic sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; per feet union, and inseparabe; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and h- manity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.
 I therefore believe it is my duty to my coun- try to love it. to support it's Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag and to defend it against all enemies.

THE WORST GAMBLER

Every right thinking person condemns the man who gambles away the means If providing the neces- saries for life for his family, yet many of worst gamblers would resent being so designated
 We refer to those who fail to provide insurance for the protection of those dependent upon them. Heads of families, especially, who do not avail them selves of reasonable life and fire insurance are gam bling with fate. Without this protection, the ing power of the family provider the savings of lifetime may be swept away without warning.
 Insurance is one of the most beneficial devices of civilization and while it's costs something, the cost is insignificant compared to the sense of ity and satisfaction 1t brings.
 Every owes it to himself and to his family to provide this protection. He who does not is a gambler indeed

IS THE PROSPECTOR GONE?

Is the day of the prospector past? Many AL askan papers believe this to be true, but the nu- merous strikes being made throughout the territory show that the oldtimer is still going strong. There are many men today who, if they had the capital for grubstake would be in the hills In the old days it was possible to get grubstake from nearly any acquaintance, business man, saloonkeeper or dealer, whose money was freely given with but little hope of reward. Today the prospector who can pry grubstake out of man must be able to talk high finance and have the tact of bank cashier. Money is lavished for everything but mining, and this industry is yet the best bet of the Terri tory, despite its many hard knocks

PIONEERS VANISHING

Another oldtimer passed away this week, after long illness at Tacoma. One by one they are dropping off, and within few years the youngsters will be the oldtimers and the oldtimers forgotten When Alaska history is compiled, if it be accur- ate, it will have to devote many pages to the old timer. The plainsmen who fought Indians and Mexicans had it easy compared to the men who fought Nature at its worst. Cold and frost are worse foes than few Redskins.
