So for the first time the Girl Scouts

basis The plan under consideration
is to open coffee and waffle shop. and
1t is hoped that the initial capital will
be provided out of the drive funds.
There is also n dearth of scout lead

training of these leaders is also to be
provided by the drive.

AL phases of business, big and little,
are dangerously misconstrued
every hour of the day. The result has
been that even among business men
themselves there is misunderstanding
as to the motives and practices of other
business men.
Industry has become SO complex!
Worse still for business and the
public when popular sentiment, fed on
half-truths, finds its way into laws
unintelligent and restrictive.
There is tremendous need for a

the newspapers for not telling the truth or publishing the news, while the man who reads carefully is less ready to condemn. Anyone who will notice what is going on in his own neighborhood will find that this is so.
 "Studious reading is done with ef- fort. Much of our newspaper reading is of the effortless kind. No effort is required to read what we like. We sit up thru the night to follow the for tunes of the beautiful heroine, or the less beautiful villain. We let a meal get cold to read the evidence in the last big murder case, and from the murder we jump to Andy Gump, who wears no mans collar" or to Jiggs, who at last has got his corned beef and cabbage. Reading of this sort is not beneficial nor does it require any effort.
 But it does require an effort to skip the beautiful girl in the story, the fascinating murder and Gump, and sit down calmly and studiously to read something that is opposed to our views, or worse still, may explode and show the utter fallacy of our ideas. It takes not only effort, but it takes courage to do this.

SUTHERLAND MlSQUOTED.

The Juneau Empire comments on a recent statement by Attorney Gen. eral Stone deprecating Alaska's mor- als, and ended by intimating that his information was derived from Delegate Sutherland. The Gateway received the same dispatch the Empire quotes, and we failed to see any remark about our delegate fouling his own nest; rather it said only that the Attorney General had conferred with the Dele gate, but the result of their confer ence was not made public.
 While Delegate Dan Sutherland is probably able to tote his own burdens, the point is raised that such inuendo is not good political practice. It may influence a few persons at the time of reading, but when the truth is found out later, it invariably sways them the other way. Delegate Sutherland may be persona non grata to the En- pire, but so long as he is representing Alaska, we should back him up with our efforts.
 MT. Sutherland has been condemned unjustly, many times during the past, year, by the Empire, and many times when he deserved praise instead of censure. His work for the Territory has been nullified by charges of self aggrandizement, and nothing he has done has seemed meritorious. The Delegates work in the Nome epidemic should entitle him to the thanks of the Territory, and his efforts in Alaskan oil leases certainly are commendatory.
 While the Gateway has never torn it's shirt, without pay, for the Delegate he has invariably treated our every request with the greatest considera- tion, and this paper has been under many obligations to him for courte- sies received. Without regard to party or policies we believe he has made Alaska splendid representative, and Alaskans should endorse his actions whenever possible.

been of the reinforced concrete and stucco types. Many new fronts of con- crete have been added to our business houses and the town has kept pace with personal progress by the con- struction of new sidewalks and widen ing streets. Seward has always been a clean looking town, and invariably awakens admiration among tourists from this fact.
 The Chamber of Commerce and the Womans Club have been largely responsible for much of this neatness as they have offered prizes for the best kept lawns, and have annually urged citizens to clean up and paint up. This year will be no exception, as already citizens are starting in beautifying their premises, and with in another month much improvement will be noted. While business condi- tions are much the same as in other years at this season, spirit of op- timism is apparent on every hand.

THE LITERAcY TEST

It seems more than likely that the Alaska legislature about to convene will enact some sort of a literacy test for voters. This will be in line with the actions of most of the states of the Union, points out the Anchor age Times, but great care should be taken in the drawing of the law While most white Alaskans have the idea that such law would be sole. ly for the purpose of regulating the Native vote this must not be the case The law must be made gen. erally applicable to all voters and the force of the act must be in the law itself and not left to the arbitra- ry action of election judges. The best interests of the territory will be best fostered by law that will only recognize an intelligent cleo torate.
