quarters of Alaska sent out to each post mimeographed copies of the rules and regulations governing the Alaska Flag Design Contest, which all of the Legion posts in Alaska are sponsoring. The contest is open to puples in the seventh and eight grades and the high school in all of Alaska's schools-public, private, pal ochial and native.
 The October, 1926, issue of the Na- tional Geographic Magazine contains designs in colors of the various state flags. It is quite probable that this number may be found either in the public library or in private library in the majority of Alaska communi- ties. If so, flag designers may obtain some idea of what the various states have considered to be desirable de- signs for the official emblems. Rules Governing the Contest
 Following are the rules governing the contest, as prepared by the Am- erican Legion and forwarued to the various Legion Posts:
 The contest is being held fo, the purpose of securing design for AL askas flag, which the American Le- zion in Alaska will endeavor to have adopted by the Territorial legislature as the official flag of the Territory. All the states and territories of the United States, except Alaska, have an official flag.
 The contest is open to all children who are in the seventh and eight grades and high schools of the pub lie, private and native schools in AL aska.
 One member of the local American Legion post, the school superintend- ent (principal or teacher,) and one other citizen (preferably a member of the school board or P. T. A.) shall constitute a local board of judges, who will choose the ten best designs and forward them to J. T. Petrich, Department Adjutant, The American Legion, Juneau, Alaska, for submis- sion to the Final Awards Committee. In towns where there is Legion post, this committee will be appoint ed by the post commander. In towns WuOIC uO AeSlOu pOSL cAISIS, Luc school superintendent (principal or teacher) shall be the chairmen and he or she shall select two other citi- zens for this committee, who will act as local judges in selecting the ten best designs. The designs should be mailed so as to reach the Depart ment Ajutant, The American Legion, Juneau, Alaska, not later than March 1, 1927.
 It is recommended that designs be submitted on plain paper, size 8 and one half by II inches; also that con- testants draw the designs thereon in ink, observing such proportions as to length and breadth as shall apply to the proposed flag when enlarged. Designs may be submitted in color or, if desired, the contestant may write in the proper places on the de- sign the color proposed. Tn case the seal of the Territory of Alaska is

CAPPER TO SPEAK
TO TRADE BOARD
Senator Expected to Talk on
Fiscal Relations Problem
of District.

Senator Capper of Kansas, chair
man of the Senate District committee,
will be honor guest and principal
speaker at the December meeting of
the Washington Board OF Trade at
the Willard Hotel, December IL, it was
announced by officials Of the board
today.
Senator Capper, it is expected, will
make reference in his address to the
movement for an equitable readjust-
ment of the fiscal relations of the
Federal and District Governments.
He recently announced that he felt
the time had come when Congress
should abandon the temporary ar
rangement adopted in 1928 when IT
substituted the S9.000.000 lump sum
appropriation in the place of the TO-
40 fiscal plan. which still is provided
in the substantive law for the District.
Under the temporary lump sum plan
of Federal contribution. it is pointed
out, the taxpayers OF Washington each
year are called upon 10 pay larger
and larger portion of the total costs of
the Capital as the annual budget in
creases. This year, instead of 60--4O
division of such costs, Washington
actually is paying approximately IS
per cent, while the Federal Govern
ment's contribution amounts to but
% per cent.
The Board of Trade at its next
meeting also will hear report from
the. committee on bridges on its tour
of inspection to be made tomorrow of
all bridges over the Potomac, which
will be held to determine the stability
of the several structures.
A report will be made by special
committee which is considering refer.
endum No. 81 of the Chamber of Com
merce of the United States, which pro-
poses legislation concerning Missis-
sippi flood control. The committee is
composed of Harry Blake. chairma n;
Frank B. Weller and Frank p. Leetch.

cal strategists. They have strong
feeling that the muddled situation will
not clear up in a hurry and that the
national convention will be real
contest, to which the best judgment
of the most astute leaders in the
party from every State must be held.
For that reason, the city that can
attract and hold the real delegates
to serious work will be selected. and
entertainment features will be de-
cidedly secondary.
"Pick a President" will be the
watchword for the convention.
