AS the veteran American statesman
| this afternoon bids adieu to the State
Department and surrenders its por-
tentous responsibilities to Mr.. Stimson
he will be able to do so in the con-
seriousness of duty we'll performed. KEEL
logg takes his place worthily in the
roster adorned with the names OF
Hay, Bayard. Blaine, Olney, Root, Knox
Lansing and Hughes.
The Minnesotan assumed the Secro-
taryship of State after many years OF
meritorious service in other fields. Dur
ing the Roosevelt administration, Mr.
Kellogg won national renown as the
"trust-busting" special counsel for the
Federal Government in the oil and
railroad prosecutions. His home State
elected him to the United States Sen
ate. where he sat from 1917 to 1928
serving with noteworthy distinction as
member of the foreign relations COM
mittee. Following his Senate career
Mr.. Kellogg represented the United
States at the fifth Pan-American Con-
ference, in Chile, and then became
American Ambassador to Great Britain
Modest and unobtrusive, an attorney
Of the studious counselor type rather
than Of the fiamboyant Jury lawyer
pattern, Secretary Kellogg quietly but
steadily built up an amazingly con-
structive reputation at the State De-
partment, to which President Coolidge
called him in March, 1925. He was
destined to belle all predictions that
he would be a colorless foreign min
lister. None of his predecessors was SC
industrious. To Mr.. Kellogg's credit
stand no fewer than eighty-one negoti-
ated and signed treaties with other
governments-an unprecedented record
Many Of these kellogg pacts" refer
to relatively minor matters, like the
last one to bear his Signature con-
vention with Canada regulating sal
mon fishing. But very many of them
deal with issues momentous in the
extreme. Probably the departing Sec
rotary of State will desire to rest his
fame upon three outstanding achieve
ments-the sterilization Of our rela-
tons with Mexico. the regularization
of our position in Nationalist China
and the organization Of cur general
attitude toward world peace, as ex-
pressed in the treaty to outlaw war.
That Is a trinity Of foreign affairs
sufficient to hallow any statesman's
name with renown. Grateful for the
industry and capacity with which Frank
Billings Kellogg applied himself 70
their accomplishment, his fellow-Ameri-
cans wish him Godspeed in the leisured
afternoon Of fruitful life, so generous
a portion Of which has been spent In
the unselfish service Of his country.

| Writers have attempted since time
.nmemorial to describe the coming OF
! the first leaves to the rosebusheS in
| the Spring, but the best of their de-
scriptions are pale in comparison with
the real thing.
How can words take the place Of the
divine greenery with which Nature
clothes lawns, bushes, shrubs and plants
at this season of the year!
! To those of curious minds no plant
is quite as interesting in this respect
as the rosebush. The first faint flush
! of green on the Spirea Van Houtte
| (often called Bridal WREATH" but the
real Bridal Wreath is Spirea Pruni-
folia) seems uninteresting as compared
with the coming of the leaves to the
rosebushes.
Even the gradual greening of the
California privet Uigistrum ovalifolium)
must take second place in the eyes of
| the nature lover to the process whereby
the climbing and bush roses take on
: their first green mantles.
Fairylike is the appearance OF many
@ bare fence when such warm days as
March has recently known cause some
| sprawly climbing rose to put on its
traceries of greenery.
The process is SO gradual that one Is
surprised some morning to find the
| transformation completed. But those
who follow such changes carefully are
able to watch the coming of the green
step by step.
Such rosebushes as the two Radi-
ances have offered beautiful changes
to the eyes of the garden observer.
Let it be said that such changes come
about none the less surely because no
one observes them. but it cannot be
gainsaid that he who does see them
has gain thereby which the whole
sale consumer of the season misses.
There are two ways, in the main, OF
taking the coming of Spring. either to
see it wholesale or bit by bit. BY the
wholesale method the observer wakes up
to the actual coming OF Spring only
because the air Is warm and the sun
hot.
Whole stretches of lawn must get
green before he is willing to admit
that Winter is gone. Bushes every
where must take on their new leaves.

ticularly in order to be clean. but more
to be sure Of getting every drop.
You will hear rose enthusiasts declare
that no other plant (the rose is really
a hardy shrub offers such interesting
changes especially in regard to leaf
formation.
When the fresh new leaves come on
the Radiances, for instance, they are
beautiful tinge Of bronZy green, with
some portions almost carmine. The
curl the new leaves possess is interest
ing, too. They poke themselves right
out from the stalks, by visible process
of swelling into being.
The appearance OF the new leaves on
the rosebushes gives the speculative
a chance to consider how little he knows
about the science of pruning. so es-
sential to all plant growth, but particu-
larly so to the roses.
The newcomer to the garden field
plunges In ruthlessly with a great pair
of shippers, blindly trusting to luck to
prune his bushes properly. If he cuts

quantity, is q matter Of common

quantity, is matter of common
knowledge.
Any man who could lay down q set
Of rules by which an investor would
be assured Of gain and guaranteed
against loss would keep that set of
rules a strict secret, and given time
he would gain worldwide recognition
as a financial genius possessing the
business acumen Of the houses OF
Rothschild, Ford, Rockefeller and Nor
gan combined. There is no such set
of rules, and there never will be. But
the warning, Before You Inrest-In-
vestigate," is neither hard to remember
nor difficult to understand. If sthat
warning were observed. the pickings for
the irresponsible securities dealer would
grow slim, and there would be more
savings accounts left intact.
Neither banks, brokers nor Better
Business Bureaus want the task of judg
ing the potential value of all securities
that are offered But reputable banks
and brokers and the Washington Bet
ter Business Bureau are in a position
to tell the prospective purchaser Of
securities whether the paper in ques-
ton represents an out-and-out specuia-
ton, business venture, conservative
investment or whether it is tinged by
the hint Of fraud. And careful in
quiries will usually elicit valuable in
formation regarding the reputation of
the house or salesman offering the
securities.
1t is simple to take few precautions
before investing. So simple, in fact,
that such a step is more often dis
regarded.

Investing and Investigating.

When lambs cease to gambol and
begin gambling, no one sheds many
tears when the shearing season arrives,
as it arrived on Tuesday in Wall Street
and will arrive again. The unwritten
laws of gambling require one to drain
the bitter dregs of loss as often as one
tastes the sweetness of quick gain, and
buying on margin comes within the
purview of these laws.
But q great deal of sympathy is due,
although it may be wasted sympathy,
for the thousands of men and women,
in Washington and elsewhere, who are
too careful to indulge in the risky sport
of buying on margins but are ready
enough TO hand over their savings,
sometimes their jewelry, to the first
slick salesman who offers them an OPP
portunity to get in on the ground floor
and purchase stocks and bonds Of
questionable value. No exact estimate
can be made of the annual losses SUI
fered by these careless investors in
worthless paper, although the Better
Business Bureaus can mention figures
that sound like the national debt. But
one doubts If the bears and wolves
of Wall Street hold a candle to the
havoc in Savings wrought by the deal
ers in worthless securities.
Here In Washington the situation is
aggravated by the failure of Congress
to enact legislation requiring some Of
fetal scrutiny of securities statesmen
and the stuff they sell. Such legisla-
ton has been enacted in many of the
| States, but the District of Columbia re-
mains a sort of haven for the smooth
tongued gentlemen who cannot operate
with safety in other communities. Sc
long as they steer clear of actual mis-
representation which can be proved In
court, they are as free as the winds
to sell what they please. That they
do sell what thsy please, and in grea'

MARION GOLDSTEIN IS HERE FOR WEEK;
 PURCHASED FURS

Marion w. Goldstein, who has re- turned from a four-months' fun buying trip into the Interior, vii remain in Juneau until next Tues day or Wednesday before continu- ing to Seattle where he is con nected with the Hibbard-Stewart company. J MT. Goldstein, who visited the Kuskokwim, Yukon River and Alas ka Peninsula districts, travelling by airplane, bought large number o1 furs, mostly mink, fox and lynx He expects to return to Alaska ir about a month to make another trip into the Interior.
 The fur catch throughout the Territory is about 20 per cent of last years catch, according to MT Goldstein. The only fur that is real plentiful in the Territory at this time, is beaver, and the sea- son is closed on that, he said. In some localities beaver are so thick they are dying off because of lack of feed, and in other parts they are depleted on account of the excess of poaching, he said.

TRACK SHARPSHOOTERS FIND DERBY PROBLElM

LOUISVILLE, Ky, March B. The Kentucky Derby, annual turf classic at Churchill Downs, has drawn a nomination list this year that is causing racing devotees to spend more time than usual in scanning past performances in at tempts to select the probable win her of the May 18th race.
 One hundred and eleven of the l59 nominations have won more than $1,000,0O0 for their owners since the beginning of their racing careers. The bulk of these win- nings were accounted for in 1928, when the eligibles were raced as 2-year- -olds, but the total has been increased this year at New Or leans, Miami, Havana and Tijuana
 When the nomination list for the Derby closed, the III winners had amassed a total of $1,013,811. For ty-eight nominees were non-win- ners and IA of these were non starters.
 High Strung, Robert L. Gerry's stake winner, tops the list of win ners with $153,590. High Strung won five of six starts and was un- placed once.
 E. R. Bradley's Blue Larkspur, winner of $66,97O, has a record of four firsts, one second, one third and once unplaced in seven starts
 The record for the most starts goes to Buddy Basil, of the Basil Manor stable. Buddy Basil faced the barrier B times to win three times, run second seven times, show six times and to run out of the money IT times.
 Unperturbed by the showing of fillies in previous derbies, Earl H. Sande. who was jockey of the win ming mounts in 923 and 1925, when zev and Flying Ebony respectively, came in ahead of the field, has en- tered three fillies. Hermitage has been unp1aced in three starts. Near by has won twice and placed four times in IA starts and Safety Pin has run once each in the win, place and show columns out of II starts.

 Tomorrow is Hot Cross Bun day, though just how they came to be indelibly associated with Good Fri day, is one of the things buried in the mists of the past. It is, however, one of the good old Eng fish customs, that remains popular. Buried in much the same way, is the manner in which the Friday before Easter got the name, Good Friday.
 It is thought to be derivative of Gods Friday, so called because the Crucifixion of Christ took place on that day. It is observed in many churches. particularly in the Roman Catholic, Anglican and Lu- theran churches, with services and a rigorous fast. In the Roman Catholic and frequently in the Anglican church, the "Three Hours service is observed in the afternoon in commemoration of the three hours Christ hung on the Cross.

JUNEAU CHAMBER ENDORSES CONCERT
 TO BE GIVEN HERE

The local Chamber of Commerce today went on record as being solidly behind the Woman's Pro- fessional and Business Club in sponsoring the coming concert of Charles Wakefield Cadman and his soloist. Members who have heard the concert artists in the south pointed out that the appearance of the composer, who is recognized as one of the foremost in the country and the soloist, who has also wor renown, will be real treat for Juneau people
 A full table of members were present at the luncheon. A large part of the hour was given to hear ing the reports of the various com mittees. The Executive Commit tee reported that H. R. VanderLeest had been elected to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of George F. Weisel, who will be in the States for several months.
 A letter from the Post Office De- partment in Washington was read It stated that the recent refusal oi certain eastern Post Offices to ac- cept mail for Alaska during the winter months, was being investi- gated.
 A letter was read from w. c Henderson, official of the Biologi- cal Survey Headquarters in Wash ington, telling of the pending ap- propriations by Congress for the control of predatory anim Is throughout the country. It stated that larger sum than usual would in the near future, be appropriated by Congress and that it was hoped that Alaska would this year re- ceive a more suitable fund for the important work.
 Pamphlets entirely devoted to Alaska are now being distributed by the Northern Pacific Railroad, according to a letter from Karl K. Katz, Alaska representative of that company. The pamphlet has a score of fine Alaska scenes on it's pages and should be a booster for the Territory, it was explained by President Faulkner.
 Senator L. c. Hess, from Fair banks; pr. Anna J. Kearsley, Eilor Hanson, J. N Gilbert and Donald Mcdonald, were guests of the Chamber. It had been planned that the body would hear talk from each, but the business mat ters took more than the usual time.
