PERMIT
FEES
Favor Director, But Say Act
Leaves Him No Power.
Cite Other Objections

Vigorous objection to certain
sections of the proposed traffic
law for the District was expressed
by members of the Washington
Automotive Trade Association in
special meeting today. The bill
was said to be undesirable because
it contained impractical, unwise
and unnecessarily burdensome pro-
visions.
The automobile dealers heartily
endorsed the idea of a director of
traffic, but pointed to sections of
the bill which would circumscribe
his authority and vitiate his
power, thus leaving him in the
capacity, more or less, of figure
head.
Fee Held Objectionable.
While the law states that he
shall have power to make regula-
lions governing speed, parking.
registration. permits, ETC., it was
pointed out that the bill under co.,
sideration specifically provides for
those items, leaving to the director
of traffic such details as brakes,
horns, lights. mufflers, etc.
The 50 yearly operators permit
fee was singled out as one of the
most Objectionable features of the
bill.
This section, it was explained,
provides that operators OF auto
mobiles shall be required to obtain
new operators permit every
year, and at a cost of 81.
Owners of small cars. it was ex'
planned, would thus be paying
sum equivalent, to that paid for
license tags prior to the lmposition
of the gas tax, and in addlCon
would still be paying the gas tax.
Attack Garage Reports.
Exception also was taken to the
| section which would require gar
age keepers and service station
operators to report to the police
| all cars brought into their shops
which showed evidence of having
been in an accident.
| Yet the bill does not define the
| term accident" Dealers said II
would take 10000 police officers
to enforce that part of the law
because the police would be oblige.'
to investigate every such report
submitted.
And, in view of the fact that
hundreds of cars are brought into
| repair shops and garages every
day with bent tenders. bruised
hub.caps and other defects-all
evidences OF accidents, the police
| would be continuously busy check
ing up on such cases which In
most instances are not the result
| Of accidents" at all.
The advantage Of arteria1 high
ways is indicated in the bill. yet
the speed limit is set definitely ~

| such thoroughfares is not only az
sirable but necessary if traffic IL

FRANK ANGERMAN WILL
 RETURN CORDOVA SUNDAY

"So this is the end of perfect va catiOn,' said MT. Frank Angerman last night at the Van Glider hotel, following the completion of three weeks holiday from his strenuous du- ties as machinist in the Cordova round house of the Copper River & Northwestern Railroad. Mr. Anger man arrived in Seward from Nuka Island three days ago and leaves to- morrow night for the Copper Gate way town on the Northwestern.
 Tt has been just year since I was in Seward last,' MT. Angerman said last evening, and the town looks bet ter than ever. Seems like there is some kind of building going on all the time. Getting that Jesse Lee Home ought to make all the other towns sit up and take notice that Seward is coming to the front rap idly. The community spirit, as was typified yesterday by the large num- Der of citizens who turned out at the site of the home and assisted so we'll in clearing large portion of the ground, is the punch which, if con- tinued, will put any town on the map to certainty"
 MT. Angerman, unlike majority of Alaskans, takes his annual vacation in the Territory. He has just come from Nuka Island where his mother, Mrs. P. Sather, has been conducting a fox farm for the last four years. Accord ing to MT. Angerman the farm is com ing ahead in splendid shape Thirty blue foxes were killed this season. The island is we'll stocked and is quite large in area being eight miles in length and four miles in width. Supplies and provisions purchased in Seward were sent to the island last night on the gas, boat Rolph II in command of Al Blair.

BUSTER kEATON AT LIBERTY
 CONvULSES BIG AUDIENCE

A large audience last night went away from the Liberty theatre with the universal opinion that Buster Keating in Sherlock Holmes, Jr.," was one of the best appearing in Seward for many months. The spec tacular acrobatic stunts by the cele- brated actor were marvellous and the comedy was good. One of the best features of the evening was the selec- tions by the High School orchestra, which played two selections between shows. The archestra is improving rapidly and fills long-felt want in the towns social achievements The show will be repeated tonight
 The play tomorrow night will be Another Scandal" which comes from Anchorage with the advice that it is very fine feature but unfit for young people to see, and surprise was felt that it got by the censors. The Lib- erty management has found in the past that what other towns say of feature does not agree with that of Seward critics, and so before ad- vertising this picture it will be shown to three prominent ladies who have agreed to act as censors. Their de- cision and names will be given in the theatre advertisement tomorrow.

Joe Hanson, who spent few weeks in Seward last winter, is now in the Fairbanks district where he hopes to connect with work on one of the outlying camps. Hanson, with his partner, Tony Lindstrom, pros pected in the Fairview district last year, the district which at the pres ent time has aroused much inter- est owing to the flattering reports sent out. When Hanson was in Se- ward he said he did not intend re- turning to the district this year.

klV YHAT is party ioyalty?"


~ This question, which is being
" frequently asked these days is
receiving answers variegated
in character the coIors in Josephs coat.
There is Senator Ladd of North Dakota, for
instance, who cannot understand why he and
other Republicans should be outlawed by the
regulars, whose number includes those who
voted against President Coolidge the postal
bill veto.
Senator Edge of New Jersey, who was one
of those who voted against the President, out
lined very plainly what he thought is party
regularity, holding that it cannot consist in
voting against the candidates nominated by
party. Senator Borah held that in this par
ticular case of the postal bill veto the
President went on record during the campaign
against the postal salary bill, and that his
veto of it virtually a party campaign
issue.
The fine distinctions over party loyalty and
regularity are calculated to bring about in
teresting discussions Capitol Hill for some
time to come, in the efforts to answer the ques-
tion, What is party loyalty?'

Gov Smith of New York, in his message to

ratification shall be submitted to a referen

He associated the National Association of
Manufacturers with the fight against ratifica-
ton, and asserted that the opposition is based
upon desire to exploit the children of the

Senator Copeland of New York, who is TAX
ing prominent part in the leadership of his
party in that State, has very distinct ideas
Evening star., 1925-01-11

upon plans for revival OF the Democratic
party of the Nation. The three outstanding
planks for that undertaking laid down by
Senator Copeland are:
First, sectionalism must be eliminated.
"Reprisals for past performances or fall
ures must be put out of mind.
Racial and religious distinctions must be
eliminated and preferment founded on merit
alone"
Senator Copeland who it will be recalled
not long ago characterized Gov. Alfred E.
Smith of New York Venus de Milo" in
politics, is also intent upon getting another
leader of the Democratic party in the State
of New York. that post being now, by general
acclaim yielded to Gov. Smith. He wants to
go upstate for new leader. He resents the
term boss" applied to State leader. He
holds that a political party should be made up
of voluntary units focking to a standard
bearer because of beliefs. THE
chosen leader of such a party" he contends,
lis more a boss dictator than is the
managing director of a corporation. an abso-

posed legislation in the State Legislature may

deadlock will be water the wheel of
Senator Copeland in his fight for another
leader in the State Democracy.
The threatened deadlock between the gov
and the Legislature is assuming alarm
ing proportions, promising grave detriments
to the public interests in the failure of enact
ment of any constructive legislation. Last
week Gov. Smith sent his message to the
Legislature, the longest delivered in
that body 1t covered a great number of pro-
posals for legislation. OF 10 major points in
the governors recomme endations he is in
fict with the Republican majority in the Leg
islature on IL of them. The governor plead
ed for bipartisan consideration, and the Re
publicans met this by the introduction OF four
bills favored by the governor for which they
will stand.

upon his recommendations. They say he will
be in tho position OF the man who exclaimed,

The question also arises whether the Re
publicnns may not find themselves "in bad
with the public If some of the governors
suggestions for legislation are ignored on par
tisan grounds. The weakness of the Republi-
cans lt"s in the fact that they cannot pass any
proposal Of their the governors
veto. Some OF the governors suggestions are
likely, it is said to meet with popular favor
and tho public may resent being deprived of
remedial legislation solely on the grounds OF
party politics.
On such a question as dry legislation, of
course. there is the difference of political
opinion which makes party question. The
governor favors strict enforcement under the
existing law. The Republicans have already
offered a drastic dry measure The outcome
probably will be legislation at all upon
this subject.
Another important question before the Leg
islature is the and control of the water
power of the State; whether it shall be pri-
vatey operated under the leasing system or
controlled and operated by the State. There
will be a sharp clash between business inter
ests desiring to utilize the water power and
the ccaservatonsts, who fear that the vast
water -power projects may fall into the control
of moropolists.
In Congress it is felt that the danger of the
failure OF more of the appropriation
