REPORT on THE FINANCIAL
CONDITION
Seward daily gateway., 1924-09-24
COUSIN OF CHAR IS A
 CLERK IN U. S. BANK

NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 23.-An- other royal fugitive from Soviet rule has been discovered working in the United States. He is Prince Dimit- ry, a nephew of the late CZar and a cousin of the Prince of Wales. He is working as assistant to the man. ager of the foreign exchange depart ment of the National American Bank, in New York He came here, ac- cording to friends, at their urging, after having been found working for a farmer in Denmark.
 Prince Dimitry declared he hoped some day to return to Russia "and give my countrymen the benefit of what I have learned here"
 Bank officials said he was making good.
 The Prince said his mother was the Grand Duchess Xenia, sister of the late Car, and his father the Grand Duke Alexander. His grandmother is Dagmar, the Dowager Empress of Russia.
 The Prince said he and group of fifty others, who had been con demned to death in the Crimea by the Soviet government, escaped by bluffing guards into believing they were five hundred, and escaped on board British ship to Western Eu- rope.

Arrivals from the Interior report the death by suicide of Peter Lisch (Diamcnd Pete), we'll known old timer of the Kantishna district. He took poison to end his life and is said to have had a razor handy in case the poison failed to work. He lived in cabin on Friday creek where his body was found. He stampeded to the Kantishna when gold was first found there nearly a score of years ago, and has lived in that district ever since.

DEFENSE OR DISARMAMENT

Tn a recent statement Samuel Comp CTS, president of the American Fed eration of Labor, denounced militar- ists "who would take advantage of every opportunity to promote and feed the war spirit" and likewise the designs of the pacifists, "who would disarm America first and the other nations last"
 Most of them," declared Gompers, "now prefer to disalm all nations ex- cept soviet Russia, so that the dlc- tators of Moscow might find easier their road to a great dictatorship.
 It is the pacifist group that has most vehemently criticised the de- fense day program-which is nothing more than a review of the nations potential defense strength, and re- dedication of American patriots to the cause of liberty. No man Is called upon to carry arms. No man is expected to take part in program as a military gesture" The nation is at peace. It is not belligerent, ag- gressive, threatening. The very fact that it is at peace and that it hopes forever to remain at peace is what justifies the defense test.
 An estimate made by the research department of the Bankers Trust com pany of; New York, showed that the wealth of twenty odd nations active ly engaged in the world war is $619,- O00,000,O00, compared with the pre- war total of S63O,O0O,0O0,O00. The pre-war wealth of the United States was estimated at $200,000,000, com pared with 0,OO0,OO0,OOO today.
 The present wealth of the British Empire is placed at $149,000, 0,00O, ,000; of France, s60,000,0O0,00O The pre- war per capita wealth of the several powers is segregated as follows: U. S., $2,090; Great Britain, 1,489; and France, S1,4S4. The per capita aver age of today, not given, probably is still more to the advantage of the U. S., on comparative basis.
 Pacifists may not beleive the great wealth of our country-amounting to almost half of all the nations en- gagged in the world war-is worth de- lending. But at least ninety-nine per cent of the American people are pre- pared, should the emergency unhap- oily arise, to give the last drop of their blood, not alone for this gigan- tic wealth, but for the happiness of the 112,0O0,0OO people who share it.
 The defense test day program merely means that the American peo- pie are called upon to take stock of their patriotism-to stand up and be counted, without, in the slightest de- gree offering offense to any nation.
 And MT. Gompers said, "there is something too craven for words about those who snort at the burden of the price of freedom"
