Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt's ut.
tack on the structure of the
courts and administration of ius.
tice in America at a Columbia
alumni dinner was being widely
discussed by jurists here today.
The governor, warned against
"one justice for the rich and an.
other justice for the poor" and
also attacked the red tape with
which he declared the admins
tration Of justice Is bound.
So much red tape, so many
methods Of evasion have grown
up, the governor asserted, that
those of wealth may not shackle
justice, yet they can, at least,
"shoe her with leaden scandals" {"
Governor Roosevelt d clare d
that the crying need of America
today is to make the administra-
ton Of justice simple and mex
pensive.
He declared the legal machin-
cry has become so complicated,
through countless additions to
the code, that even the most

hours of research and study be-
fore any action can be started in
its journey through the courts.

BUFFALO RETURN TO i.
 DELTA RIVER RANGE

Alaska's experimental buffalo herd located on a range south of Fair banks, and just north of the main Alaska range of mountains, came through the winter successfully de- spite an unusually heavy snow fall, according to word received at local headquarters of the Alaska Game Commission.
 SThey were released on the Delta River last summer. After winter set in, they drifted up Jarvis creek and crossed a divide into the Clear water, tributary of the Panama River. There they wintered, ap- parently finding abundant food. A report received in Fairbanks said they had left this range and are now back on the original Delta River feeding grounds.
