EVERYBODY TALKS; NOBODY DOES

ALASKA seems to be something like Mark Twains h weather Everybody talks about it but nobody does anything about it, says The Seattle Star.
 Senator Willis of Ohio is the latest talker. He sees the vast possibilities of the territory and says should be developed Now he will go back to Ohio and forget about it.
 Probably there's not much wrong with Alaska. It is badly governed it is rue but is comparatively prosper ous it's resources are being sought into development There is no pressing need for rapdfire utilization ot everything Alaska has to offer.
 Rut if Alaska waits for congress to do anything she will wait in vain She must dig in herself, remembering that Providence aids those who aid themselves.

BROADWAY line
A POPULAR HIT,
WORD BROUGHT

City Speed Patrolman Ted Haas
and Deputy Sheriff Earl Reed who,
at the invitation of Chief Bowden
travelled to BiSbee and Tombstone
with Secretary c. W. Taylor of the
Broadway Of America Highway as
siocation and his encourage, including
the Kelly-Springi1cld Tire company's
car, returned to Douglas Thursday
night enthusiastic with their treat
ment by those along the line inter-
ested in the new highway. They re-
pert that business men see in the
routing of the Broadway line through
this part of Arizona probable
source OF large benefit from tourists
because they believe that there is
combined in this new highway many
factors that have never been gathered
in one highway across the continent
before.
) The motorcycle officers say that
when they had visited the two cities
to which they accompanied him,
Secretary Taylor declared that Ariz-
ona was proving its usual character
istic of alertness in seeing an op-
portunity when presented and he
asserted that in that he found as
surance of success for the highway
tourists like to travel through places
where they find wide-awake citizens
as that always shortens the Journey
by adding pleasant angles to it,
Secretary Taylor, after visiting at
the BiSbee chamber and the Tomb
stone Commercial club, continued his
journey on to the west coast
The speed patrclmen who accom-
panied him returned enthusiastic con-
verts Ito the cause and Secretary
George B. Doubleday believes that
they only typify the feeling of the
average citizen along the route toward
the coming of the new highway.

SHOULD PAY PROFESSORS
AS MUCH AS CHAUFFEURS
AND COOKS, DEAN PLEAS

Low wages paid college instruc-
tors is blamed for the Ills existing
in the college system by Otis E.
Randall, dean Of Brown University,
in an address before the Association
of American Colleges in convention
here.

willing to pay It's college professors
as much as it's cooks and chauffeurs
will il obtain the best education for
its sons and daughters" said the
dean.
Because Of low wages paid pro-
fessors, capable men are not at
traeted to that profession, he said.
1--WE shall have to continue with
many inefficient instructors who
could not qb&t.sy for any industriai
or office position" he said.
In 800 colleges, the average pay
is $1,000 to $4,000 for instructors,
$4,000 to $4,000 for assistant pro-
fessors, and $500 to $4,000 for full
professors, said Randall.

TORONTO, Jan. 1s.-Because he
wrote disparaginsIy of the biblical
God, Ernest V. Sterry, editor of the
Christian Inquiry, has been ar
rested under an ancient statute
charged with "blasphemous, indie
cent, profane libel concerning the
holy scripture and the Christian re-
ligion." Sterry was granted week
in which to prepare his defense
against the charges.
Sterry's "scandalous" articles
were quoted In the court hearing.
One Of them refers to the God Of the
bible as "this irate old party, who
thunders imprecations from the
mountains or mutters and grouches
In the tabernacle who has mas

Arm To Save Loot.
The foreign imperialist forces in
Shanghai are actively preparing for
war with the Cantonese army. The
foreign concessions are being turned
into fortresses. Huge gates are being
swung across all streets leading into
the French concession. Barbed wire
entanglements are under construction
along the borders of the foreign settle
ment, and are being built also across
streets inside the settlement, for
street fighting in case the Chinese at
tempt to assume the administration
of the territory so long occupied by
foreign armed forces.
American Consul Clarence S. Gauss
is active in organizing into the militia
of the foreign settlement all able
bodied male Americans; missionaries
and women are being inducted into
Acommittees for service back of the
line. The European and American in
dustrial commercial and religious in
terests which have been prospering
so long on Chinese labor and Chinese
trade have announced that they will
not abandon their toe-hold in Shan

whose nations own factories or mis-

Japanese ships are included in the
total. The fleet is ready to land
marines and blue-jackets without wait

of the foreign settlement have asked
for 1000 British, 1000 American and

STRIKE CLOUDS
GATHER IN Sc.
RAIL DISPUTE
Board of Mediation
Failed So Far
BY LAURENCE TODD,
Federated Press).

WASHINGTON -(FP)- Twenty
two thousand members of the Broth
erhood of Railway Trainment and the
Order of Railway Conductors, en-
ployed on all class railroads In the
Southeastern region except the South
ers Railway, are completing strike
vote. 1t is indicated that this vote
is almost unanimous, or at least is
overwhelmingly In favor Of authoriz-
ing a strike in case the executives Of
the two brotherhoods shall be unable
to secure satisfactory adjustment Of
the pending wage demands.
Ask 81 Day More.
Efforts of the U. S. board of media
ton, created under the Watson
Parker law, have failed to bulge
either side. The unions began by
asking that the wage scale be revised
to give an increase of about 81 a
day. The management, led by the
"hard-boiled" Louisville & Nashville
and the Atlantic Coast Line, refused
to discuss wages unless rules were
also thrown into the debate. AS the
rules are nationally uniform, and as
the roads in Eastern territory have
recently granted wage increase
without insisting upon changes in the
working rules, the brotherhoods' rep
resentatives have declined to talk of
modification of the rules. The dead
lock grimly declared by the managers
led to the taking of the ballot on au-
thorization of a stoppage of work.
