The Government to Inquire About that
 Copper Advance?
Engineering and Mining Journal)

Rumors to the effect that the Federal Trade Commission is planning an investigation of coppermarketing practices in the United States in an effort to determine if there has been any collision going recently in the fixing of prices It seems that the advance of one-half cent fol- lowing sales of half billion pounds of copper in a month, with refinery stocks down to the lowest level in years and equal to only about ten days requirements is looked upon with grave suspicion. That this advance was very mild one under the circumstances was explained in these columns three weks ago, but suspicion seems to have been aroused by the fact that the advances were made at quarter-cent intervals instead of the more usual modest advance of an eghh of cent at time Also. the advance comes not long after the formation of the pro- ducers association, known as the Copper Insti- tute, which apparently had effect in mak- ing producers see that prce-cutting was un- desirable during the quiet period of early summer
 When the policeman rings the doorbell, the most honest citizen answers with some slight palptation of the heart. By the same stoken no industry is entirely without worry when the Government decides to investigate it's practices But in this particular case a full understanding by the Government of what the copper industry IS doing and by the industry of what the Government will acknowledge it's right to do is to be welcomed. Thus only can the sellers of copper have their privileges and responsibilities fully charted, if such chartng is possible. With combination of domestic copper producers for the control of marketing in foreign cuntries fully permissible under the Webb Act; and with similar combination of the same producers an entirely illegal proceeding according to the Sher- man Law as it is commonly understood he who would point out the path of rectitude will have ms difficulties. And an excellent example of his difficulties will be evident by close study Of what has happened in the foreign and domestic copper market in the last month
 Not one will deny that the copper producers have acted with great restraint in the recent price advance; nor will any student of the mid September copper market deny that there was excellent reason for stronger market The Government investigator, if he comes should and we believe will, be told the whole story and shown all the data, willingly. If the proceedings have been illegal some new legislation is needed In fact some new legislation is needed anyhow

ALLEN SHATTUCK FOR THE
 LEGISLATURE.

If were to go about Juneau and ask every man that he knows to pick the man in the City who is best equipped to be a member of the Alaska Legislature he would probably find that more people had named Allen Shattuck than had named any other citizen. MT. Shattuek has lived his mature life in this Territory. He has raised his family here in his home and all his worldly interests here. He has been an exceptionally fine citizen He served for years President of the Chamber of Commerce and he has been active in every forward movement that we have had in many years He is never a knoeker. He wishes every well. He knows the Territory and, particuarly, the First Division and the needs of the various com munities in it. as well as any other citizen of Alaska
 In addition to all of his experience Mir. Shattuck is especially equipped in ability, energy, balance and personality for membership ill the Legislature He is man of unsual acumen. He has vision, seasoned with sense that makes him practical He is of even temperament and is carried off his feet His mind works under any sort of circumstance He is a man of the highest character His integrity is un- mpeaehabe. He represents special interest He is broadmnded and believes that the best interests of all the individuals, including himself, are served best when the community interests are well served He is a sound business man.
 MT. Shattuck is broadly tolerant. He has deep and lively human sympathes He is as greatly interested in those who have not yet made their fortune he is in those who have been luckier.
 Juneau and the First Division are fortunate that they have opportunity to elect MT. Shat tuck to represent them in the next session of the Legislature His majority ought to be over whelming Juneau should give him a unanimous vote.

MITCHELL GETS AMERICAN LEGION.

Gen Mitchell, formerly at the head of Army aviation, who resigned after he had been dis clpilned for criticising the army and navy avia- tion scheme of organization, had the gratfca- tion of seeing the American Legion endorse his plan by unanimous vote at San Antonio Gen. Mitchell wants the aviation service of the mili- tary establishment placed into one organization Independent of the War Department and the Navy Department. He believes that there is as much need for the air service to be in a separate Department as there was for dividing the army and navy when the Navy Department was created
 Gen Mitchell was not court martialed for his ideas on this subject which were supported by a large part of the in the service but for insisting on appealing to the country after his superior officers had turned him down on the subject He immediately resigned from the army and began a campaign to convince the people that there should be a change. He had the matter before the American Legion for sometime before it finally took action in the premises

The Steese Highway.
Fairbanks News-Miner. ]


 When the Board of Road Commissioners in session at Juneau last Monday, gave to the new Fairbanks-to-Crce road link the name Steese Highway they acted in accord with a unanimous sentiment So far as the interior of Alaska is concerned there has been existant for years A sincere desire to fttingly commemorate a name which has had a major association with it's con- structlve development. It is douby fitting that this highway should have borne the name for in It may be seen the fulfllment of the builders dream, matured without influence and against numerous obstacles that virgin country should be opened and laid between tidewater and the upper reaches of the Yukon
 As James Gordon Steese was the successor or Wllds r. Richardson both in task and sen tlmental object, so are their names joined in completed project Where Colonel Dick wroupbt his name stands and where James Gordon Steese took up and completed his name is tableted The two are joined in slender ribbon that threads Us way through an immense expanse of hill and valley, frontier that appeared before tbem as meaningless waste when they were fret assigned, and which gradually largely through thelr efforts, is reaching popular regard as an empire of magnitude

 It was not Congress that appropriated the money. The American taxpayers fed the Europeans. One would think to read a typical campaign speech that MT.
