isfactory manner the draft of an ordi-
nance to extend the Admiralty Laws of
the United States to the Virgin Islands.
He was questioned by several members
and made instructive replies.
Authoritative statements on the subject
were read by the judge. He pointed out
that the present Admiralty Laws were
written in the Danish language and few
American lawyers will understand them.
After these explanations Councilman
Stakemann favored the immediate pas
sage of the ordinance while COuncilmen
Roberts and Roth. Francis proposed that
the issue be left to the new Council.
They limited that it was necessary to tell
the people what they know now about
the ordinance, as much unrest exists
about it.
Finally, the administration was in
formed that the whole ordinance will be
explained in the press, and that its pas
sage is a certainty in the near future.
The Chairman of the Council ordered
Councilman Moorehead to his seat when
he attempted to interrupt the Bird Elect
ed Member in a speech by offering a
motion on the item under discussion.
Councilman Roberts at this j%uncture
motioned a privilege question, he, too,
was ordered to his seat, the Councilman
left the hall.

himself in the wilderness and tries to
forget.
He is then brought in contact with a
deeply religious girl. who is being9hunted
for a murder she did not commit.
Although he shows contempt for her
belief and prayers, and taunts her, be is
against his will drawn to help her and IN
a fight with the villain he goes blind.
Finally her supreme belief leads her
to decide to face her accuserG and this so
impresses him he reluct ntly agrees to
go with her to the famed shrine of st.
Anne de Eeaupre in Quebec.
This leads up to the climax, which is
dramatic and reaches a high pitch of
emotional exaltation, in which the girl is
shown ascending on her knees the Sa-
cred Stairway, praying deVoutly on each
step, and as she reaches the last, the
hero finds that a miracle has been per-
formed and be has recovered his sight.
These scenes are authentic, being filmed
at the famous shrine, and are decidedly
impressive.
Priest and layman, sinner and saint,
one and all should see this picture. There
will be but one exhibition of "A Wo-
mans Faith in Christiansted, please en-
gage your seats in time and avoid dis

"A WOman'S Faith.''

Because it is especially appropriate to
the theme, Universal made a good move
IN giving the title, "A Womap's Faith"
to the screen version Of Clarence B. Kel-
lands magazine story Miracle, for it
is exactly what the film title implies, a
womau'B faith in God and in the even
tual redemption Of the unbeliever whom
she had learned to love.
1t is obvious from the above that there
is a deeply religious note in this picture,
which should strengthen its appeal for
a large proportion OF patrons, but even
for those who may not be religious!y in
clined, the picture provides good enter
tainment, as th2 keynote strikes at the
deepest emotions of which we are capa-
BILE and there is strong drama in the
development.
The attention is captured by the open
ing scenes which show the hero losing
faith in human nature and especially in
women because he finds his fa1ce in the
arms of another man. He then ouries

AMERICAN ARTISTS "A
VIRGIN ISLANDS

We are glad to report that thru the in
terest manifested by Mr.. Sherman Baker
artist and son of the Government Secre-
tary, probably, about thirty American ar
fists will visit these islands in early No
vember.
Mr.. Baker, Jr. has already furnished
all the information required by the other
artists, and we trust that our readers will
sOon be told that the prospective guests
have left for our shores.
Many towns in the United States on
the Atlantic sea board have paved their
way to progress thru encouraging profess
sional men and retired businessmen to
visit them each year. Those visitors
brought to the towns new money, new
friends and were ideal advertisers.

cost of living, sanitary conditions, and
hospitality have no equals in the West

ST. CROIX,

If St. Croix is actually crying for an
nexatioD to Porto Rico the Crucians are
fortunate in having as their Moses one
who does not permit his voice to be lost
in the wilderness. He may be relied up
on to relate the needs and abuses of our
neighboring island early and late, and al
most without ceasing.
of the glories of St. CrOiX that are
gone one scarcely needs reminding, The
island has fallen on evil days. The sale
from Denmark to the United States
neither started nor ended her hard luck.
Government under a Naval officer has
neither made matters better nor worse.
The possibilities of improvement by an
nexation to Porto Rico are by no means
certain. That would depend, largely, on
the Crucians themselves. Whatever their
future is TO be is largely up to them.
In relating their wees there is a great
deal Of unfortunate mixing Of COVER
mental and economic matters. Their e
economic problems are not going to be
solved by any government, while with
improved economic conditions their gov
crnmental problems mIghc not seem so
burdensome. But, if Mr.. Berg would
have US believe St. Croix cannot get a
long at present with all the revenues it
can raise plus aid from the Navy in max
iug up an annual deficit. he will find it
difficult in convincing Porto Rico poIiti-
clans St. Croix is an asset.

TWO M|KADO ENGINES PURCHASED BY \. RY.; DELIVERY FIRST YEAR INCREASES EQUIPMENT TO 30 ENGINES ANNOUNCES GEN.
 ERAL MANAGER SMITH
 KELLY MAKES BIG SALE Locomotives Are of the Latest Type,
 Modern Every Way, Many
 Appliances
KELLY MAKES BIG SALE

Around the first of the year two big modern locomotives, of the Mix ado type, will arrive in Seward for the Alaska Railroad, swelling the rolling stock to 30 locomotives, a very small number in comparison with the average railroad in the States, ac- cording to Noel w. Smith, general manager, Alaska Railroad, who vis- ited over Sunday in Seward. The two new engines are modern in ev- cry way with the latest appliances and specialties. Accompanying MT. Smith to Seward was A. E. Kelly, representing the Baldwin Locomotive Works, of the Portland, Ore, office through whom the purchase was made
 Regarding the Mikados, MT. Kelly said the locomotives are of the 2-S-2 type This means two front trucks, then a series of eight, and last two more trucks. The heavier the en- zine the more trucks are placed ur- der the locomotives to distribute the enormous weight more equally. The Mikado type tender engines have cylinders 2 inches in diameter with a stroke of 2S inches; the boiler pressure is 200 pounds and the weight of one engine in working or der is approximately 24O,00O pounds, with a total of 175,00O pounds on the drivers. The engines are equip ped with a booster Franklin power reverse, a superheater and other specialties as called for in the Alaska Railroad specifications. The locomo- tives develop tractive effort of 42,- 500 pounds and a reserve booster tractive effort of 11,SOO pounds, or a total tractive effort of 54,400 pounds when operated with the booster.
 At present the locomotive equip ment now in use on the railroad consists of 24 of the Mogul type of the 500 cass, MT. Smith said, two

small switch engines, ten wheeler, No. 460 and one No. n American type 440. Then there are three fair ly good narrow gauge 'dinky" en- zines which are used extensively in grading work.
 MT. Kelly came north from the Portland office about three weeks ago and left for the south Sunday on the s.S. Yukon. He anticipates, and is looking forward already, re- turning to Seward upon delivery of the locomotives.
 MT. Kelly appears to be quite youthful chap for the position he oc- cupies so out of curiosity The Gate way scribe asked him some rather leading questions among which was how he attained his position as rep resentative of such large and in ternationally noted firm, at his ap- parently youthful age. MT. Kelly is that type of man, questions of a more personal nature can be asked, in oth- CT words, the bigger the men are, the easier they are to interview. His answer was simple in that he served his apprenticeship in the shops. That's all he said-he served his ap- prenticeship in the main eastern plant of the company-aside from the fact that he has three brothers who are also connected with the firm. Then he added, "Tt's wonderful work" There's food for thought in those few words.
 Within the next few months he will write an article on his Alaskan trip and in connection with his work, which will be published in the com pany's paper, issued monthly He has promised to send The Gateway a copy of it.

Fishermen Have Hard
 Tussle Landing Shark

A seven foot mud shark, weighing in the neighborhood of $50 pounds was lowed into port this morning by Sheldon and Protzman, halibut fisher men. The big denizen of the deep is on exhibition on the Seward float The fishermen expect to extract a barrel of oil from the carcass. The hide will be tanned and used for sole leather purposes. It is reported the fishermen played the shark for three days effecting it's capture after the fish became to tired to flip a gill. Mud sharks, it is claimed, are as peaceful as kittens, when they are dead.

NlCE-SOUNlING
POLICY DOESN'T
FOOL WORKERS
Steel Slaves See Thru
Company's Idea
BY a steel Worker.


GARY. Ind, Dec. 2.-Entering the
mill last Monday the workers of the
American Sheet and Tin Mill Co.
could not help noticing on the wall
at The entrance a big sign.
Everybody stopped to read. 1t said
in large letters:
"Polieyl"
Our policy is to have this place
known far and wide as a good place
to work.
"A place where everyone has a
chance.
Where every worker is paid the
highest wages that can be paid and
yet leave room for the business sec
ton to be successful.
ITO safeguard work just as far as
it can be safeguarded.
ITO recognize good work and to
appreciate the helpful assistance OF
every co-worker
"(Signed) N. A. irwin, Vice-Pres.
American Sheet and Tin Plate CO.
Nobody Takes It Serious.
The workers read this policy and
just wave their hand.
what do you think of this. Bill?'
20, it's full of -!"
This is the opinion of the steel
workers about the neNA policy of the
Sheet and Tin Mill Co.
Soon Wear Out.
OF course, the first roller gets al
times as high as $4,000 day. This
may appear a high wage, but try tc
stand at the hot rolls hours a day
working at top speed and you will not
think the wage too high. Day by day
these men give away their life energy
until after a few years they are dried
out, lifeless.
What if they saved up a few thou
sand dollars? Their life is gone.
The company meanwhile makes mil
lions.
And what of the common laborers
These do not get above $3.50 to $3.50
We don't believe that the company
pays us the highest possible wage, and
that everyone has a chance.
We work at top speed, but ouI
families live in want and we cannot
make both ends meet, not speaking
If getting the fat steak which the vice
president, N. A. Irwin, is getting, who
signed the policy" of the American
Sheet and Tin Mill Co.
The real policy of the Tin Mil

who saved the state Of Massachu-
setts from the striking Boston police
men. Why could not Allen become
president by putting thru legislation
which would make ALL strikes ille-
gal except those called with the sane
ton of the capitalists and capitalist
agents?
1t has long been a favorite dodge
of capitalists, when preparing an as
sault on the workingclass, to put over
the needed legislation in an agricul-
tural state, under various guises, and
thus secure at least formal support
for their scheme from the agricultural
sections.
There can be no doubt that had the
Kansas miners made no resistance to
the Industrial Court we should have
seen a wave of similar legislation
sweeping over other states.
They fought almost alone as we
shall see.
