Of course the Methodist Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals must rdicule the Hearst $250OO award for the best plan to settle the troubles arising out of Prohibition. It refers to it as the whim of man who has more money than he knows what to do with
 These famous divines from whom fair discus sion ought to be expected do not say word about the author of the plan or those who approved 1t or the manner of it's selection for the first prize.
 The plan was written by Presiding Judge Franklin Chase Hoyt of the Children's Court, New York City, grandson of Salmon P. Chase Secretary Of the Treasury in Lincons Cabinet and Chief Jus tice of the United States through appointment from President Lincoln Justice Hoyt is noted authority on childrens welfare legislation, etc, and famed humanitarian and sociologist. He was the author of the Childrens Court which he presdes. He holds several college degrees, is fiftyhree years of age the father of three daughters, lawyer and a Republican.
 The Judges who awarded the s25,oOo to Justice Hoyt were:
 Former United States Senator James A. Reed, of Missouri, famous lawyer and orator.
 Representative James M. Beck of Pennsylvania, formerly Solicitor General of the United States, and known as one of the greatest constitutional lawyers in America.
 Representative Florence P. Kahn of California, widow of the late Julian Kahn, who in Congress for twenty Live years.

 Neither MT. Hearst any of his employees o those of any of his publications present whel the award was made None of them had read thu Hoyt plan until after it had been awarded the prize

Diving Into Publicity.
Anchorage Times.)


 That Olympia diving official who is trying to keep his treasure quest under cover, made serious mistake yesterday when he permitted his Olympia friends to talk of court action as a means of pre- venting further discussion of the work which the diving company is doing at the of the Islander wreck near Juneau. The very best way to get pub licity is to try to avoid it and it is very doubtful if the diving officials will be able to find grounds upon which to base a legal complaint against those who dare to discuss the project. The chances are that the newspapers of the Gastneau Channel dis trict will find lot to talk about now that they have been challenged and their readers will be disappointed if they are not kept posted on any future developments
 The presence of the divers not unknown to Aaskans nor was the offending Juneau report the first mention made by the Alaska press of the ac- tvltles of the company. The divers were "discov- cred when they first arrived Alaska water aboard their Seattle tug and their arrival was heralded to the world by the Ketchikan Chronicle when they reached the First City. It not possible to keep the coming of the expedition secret and it will be harder still to keep the progress of the work under cover now that threats are being employed to pre- vent publicity. The news story would have been forgotten speedily but for the importance given it by spokesmen for the divers at Olympia.
