KING OF ENGLAND LOSING FIGHT WITH
 "GR|M REAPER"
PRINCE OF WALES DUE TO AR RIVE LONDON TONIGHT OR
 TOMORROW

LONDON, Dec, II, (P)-King Georges phycisians are waging a fight against death today. Unof- ficially it is stated that the chan ces for the Kings recovery is very slight and most persons are now wondering if the Prince of Wales, who is expected to reach London tonight or tomorrow, would win his race with time and again see his father alive.
 The official bulletin, which was brief, was non-conmital and con- Veyed little to the public and cer- tainly gave no ground for the be- lief there was. any change for the better in the Kings condition.
 It is evident that the persistent fever which has wracked the Kings body for more than three weeks and sapping his strength, still held firm grip upon him. The Kings power of resistance has been ebbing for days under the strain of the lung infection which has spread to his general system. This is evident from the physi- clans recent reports. The reports were of some comfort to his anX- ious subjects who have been hop ing, almost against hope, he was on the road to recovery
 Today's bulletin said there has been no further dimunition of strength after night which brot several hours of sleep to his Maj esty. Whether this was natural sleep was not stated in the report.

NEW YORK CITY. - The first double banked piano has made it's appearance in this country. The invention of Emanuel Moor, of Switzerland, and introduced into America by Chickering, is now on exhibit at Ampico Hall. Prominent musicians have called it the piano of the future. It can do what no other piano has ever done What one playsyy singly, the double tiered keyboard with it's pedals, doubles the octaves. It is like two men playing and will make pos sible more difficult compositions than have ever been played.

WASHINGTON, Dec.s II, (P)- Encouragement over the future of Alaska is reflected in the testimo- ny of Dr. George Otis Smith, director of the Geological Survey and the Alaska Railroads Man ager, Otto F. Ohlson, before the House subcommittee on Inter
 The needs for better educational facilities for natives was stressed by Lewis A. Kalbach, acting com missioner of the Bureau of Edu- cation. Referring to the possibili- ties of mineral development, in ad- dition to coal mines which are producing more coal than Alas kans can consume, Smith said "FTIERE tS so MUCH
 unknown country there that I am more of an optonist regarding the future of Alaska than some who visited Alaska from time to time"
 More than 100000 square miles have not been examined for min eral resources, he said. and de- clared that the Alaska Railroad had added to the mineral develop ment because of freight items which had been a great drawback to the development of Alaska mines.
 MANAGER OHLSON SAID numerous food products could be grown in Alaska and urged that efforts be made to attract north ern Europeans to settle in the Ter ritory pointing out there were ac- comodations for 1,500 families in the Panama Valley.
 He said the deficit of the line this year amounted to $840, ,89O a decline as compared with 1927 de- ficit of $9O0,174. The deficit for next year, he said, the deficit may be less than $900,000.
 DEVELOPMENT OF THE reindeer industry south of the Alaska range, is suggested by Ohl- son who said under present con- ditions reindeer on the northern range had to be slaughtered seven months before being exported from ports, frozen in, in that area. The railroad could ship the meat from the southern ranges to southern ports.
 MORE THAN THIRTY
 villages with school populations of and from 15 to 50 children are without schools while more than 500, who sought admission to 1n- dustrial schools, were turned down because of insufficient accommo- dations, Kalbach testified.
 He said that medical relief was limited in Alaska there being but few physicians, nurses or hospitals and with many of the large vil- lages being without any person having knowledge of medical science

TUGWELL'S NEW BOOK
Plea for Liquidation Of Class Struggle

with their fellow workers on job
there is chance for the function
ing of the idea that wages cannot
be higher than returns from sales"
His Identification of company
urionism with industrial unionism is
Ia deliberate attempt to confuse the
reader as he we'll knows that the
two have nothing in common.
This in general is an outline of the
theories of Professor Tugwell. 1t
IL not necessary to refute his scheme
Of a future society further than to
repeat that it is en- attempt to liquid
ate the class struggle by promising
Is. painless revolution at the hands of
The engineers. The fundamental fall
lacy of Tugwell lies much deeper, in
his failure to take into account the
contradictions of capitalism which
will nuliify the effects of capitalist
naturalization In a decision on ra-
tionalizatior the Communist Party of
the Soviet Union has declared:
"When the capitalists rationalize
they thrust the whole burden upon
the working class so that capital
list naturalization implies longer
working hours, increased unemploy-
ment, lowered standards of living
for the working class and deter
ioration of the broad masses Of the
workers"
The naturalization of American in
dustry which Tugwell praises so high
ly will merely result in increasing the
army of permanent unemployed with
greater pressure on the standard of
living of the entire working class
Mass production in huge quantities
which fascinates Tugwell will result
in more prolonged industrial crises
and in the more intense search for
foreign markets with its inevitable
accompaniment OF imperialist war.

Share in Cage Title
by Beating Illinois

Chicago, March 7.-(P)-A half
share at least in the western con-
ference basketball championship for
1928 was the happy possession to-
day Of the Indiana university team.
The Hoosiers closed their season
last night with / 27-23 overtime
victory over Illinois to gain a sea-
son record Of 10 victories and two
defeats averaging 1915 points per
game.
Dale Wells was the Hoosier hero.
He dropped in long shot from the
sidelines to the score at 1922 just
before the game ended. In the extra
period, he Gagged two more field
goals to make victory sure.
The other game bearing on the
title takes place at Minneapolis Sat-
urday when Purdue engages Mime
sofa. If Purdue wins, the Boiler
makers will get half share in the
championship.

played.
Play for the consolation trophy
will begin at 1880 p. m. Saturday
! while the championship game is
called for $3.50 p. m.
The outcome Of the tournament is
rather muddle as there are many
strong quints and dark horses en-
tered.
The Bismarck Phantoms and the
state training school quints are
powerful. Both of the New Salem
entrants are earable of great ball
on their home floor. New Leipzig
and Washburn have beaten a great
majority Of their opponents this
| season.
Dopestei believe that either the
New Salem Hawks or the Phantoms
will go through the finals while in
the other frames, the doping of the
finalists is more difficult due t.
the greater strength of the quints
