HE OPERATED HIMSELF

The. .defeat of Lester D. Hen derson~Was, brought about by Lester D. Henderson. If he had attended to his own business. the management of our school system: for which:4le was hired he wqMld'still be: CCommissioner of Education.:
 We: have. often pondered over the seript4ral text, He that taketh the sword, shall perish by the sword AS we frequently have:oceasiQn- to know the truth of that text. But, we have often wondsred if the sword was only for oAE., friends.
 Henderson has been the most pernicipus influence in politics f,r many years. He has been so important as. the "liaison officer" of the federal political machine that .:his$campaign for reelection has included the leading Demo- cratss like Tony Dimond, John W. Trey: John Pegues,, the SUD- posed.. Republican governor Geo. A. Parks.
 His efficiency in politics is proven by the almost unanimous support that came to him from Parent Teacher A Associa tions. These resolutions were engineer ed by-. Somebody usually under obligations to Henderson for the very subordinate job held. Ger tainlg the vast crowd that voted knew nothing about him.

Hang on to Valuable Rights

Do you know that the pulp mills of the United States, in 1920, nearly ten years ago, paid on an average of $19.03 per cord for pulp wood delivered at their mills and that at a price of $1O per cord the timber land of Southeastern Alaska would yield anywhere from $1O,OOO to s2OO,- 900 per quarter section to the owner.
 Do not sit silent and allow a resource of this value to be talk en from you. The time to make the fight is now.

WHY NOT ALASKA?

We quote the Department of Agriculture year bOOk for 1922:
 It is necessary to go abroad, however, to appreciate the full Plgnlhcance Of continuous use of forest lands to permanent local ueVeIopment and prosperity, No better example can be found than that of the French Landes.
 An area of slightly less than two million acres supports "a population of about 100000 and as a health resort is visit led by about 100000 people each year" About 81 per cent of all the workers employed in lum- bering and turpentining opera tiOnS are small holders of land within and adjacent to the for eStS. The returns from the tim Der and turpentining make it possible to cultivate proftably the scattered areas of agricul- tural land which otherwise would be valueless.
 We ask. Why not Alaska?

We are not expecting that our school.system will go to the bow VOWS merely because Lester D. Henderson is out and MT. Breur is in.

PROGRESS IN ALASKA

Governor George A. Parks be- fore the Chamber of Commerce banquet in honor of himself and members of the Alaska Iegisla- ture said in answer to the ques- tion Just what is wrong with Alaska, why is it your country doesn't seem to go ahead?" the trouble is local pessism."
 In other words, the governor says our trouble is that we are simply down in the mouth with out reason.
 To prove his point, he points to the improvement in all kinds of transportation everywhere in Alaska.
 In answer to this we point out
The Alaskan., 1929-04-19

Newton has been in the House for ten years and has always been 9 faithful member of the "Old Guard" machine. He was practically the only member of the Minnesota delegation who opposed the McNary- -Haugen bill. He was against organized labor on major legislation like the HoWell-Barkley Bill.
 But he has ability and was an original Hoover man."

Who Subsidies Them?

Do the pulp mills in British Columbia get a subsidy from the Canadian government? They seem to be able to operate profit ably and market the bulk of their produce in the United States In fact the timber in dustries of British Columbia as well as Oregon and Washington seem to be able to do business in in all lines and raise money to do it with too.
 Why not Alaska?

MAKE WAR ON HOLD-UP
By George l.. Knapp, in Labor


 The American people are just waking up to the way they are being skinned by their public utilities. One that covered -aize utilities. One of the most arout ed spots on the map is that co7- red by two Middle WeSter.2 towns which are lucky enough to have wise and plucky leader ship.
 Champaign and Urbana are twin cities" of central Illinoi~. Their joint population is some thing above 3O,OOO, and their chief industry is education. The state university, where you can take a course in bricklaying- and get degree in it, too-is located at the twin towns, and it's 14,0O0 students are not in cluded in the population esti- mates.
 And Champaign and Urbana just now are in a vigorous fight

Can They Make the Grade?

Are the Forest Service People going to be able to induce the pulp manufacturers to come to Alaska and operate? Not unless they give them an iron-cIad con- tract tor a definite amount of timber, at a rate with no un- known quantities as to future stumpage prices. In fact, a bill of sale. Big business does not do business that way. Buric Ratio control may be imposed over an unresiStIng and un0rganized country and people, but for Big Business to deliberately place it. self under that control is un- thinkabIe.
 We might suggest that the answer would be to allow the timber and land to follow the regular channels of private own ership.

WANTS Us TO BOW TO HENRY

It seems evident that the House. of Representatives does not intend to take steps to solve the problem of Alaska's fisheries from an Alaskan viewpoint.
 Frafik-:, Foster, representative from Cordova, has supplied the excuse;lnanlely, that nothing be done until Henry O'Malley can come t to Juneau. and advise" just what should be done. And Henry says that all is harmoni- ous Tn Alaska and there is no fish controversyy this year."
 Iii this Frank Foster has the active support of the Fourth Di- vision members of the House, and:ssapae= from the Second or Nome Division.
 Thesaoaaly thing left for the FirS*aDiaasion is to demand sepa- raticzaSfIofn the miners of the NOrth+ RD}es es-and-Fairbanks Col lege;: or, cut out the College ap- propriation and let it run on the Congressional appropriation on- lv

to make the utilities quit goug- ing or get out.
 With some 1900 professors Iiv- ing in the twin towns, one would expect leadership to come from the halls of learning. It hasn't happened that way.
 Sick of Ratae Increases tell the statesmen on the Hill what the President wants and then convey their reactions" to his boss.
 The man who is taking the lead in fight for fair play is Isaac Kuhn, head of a big de- partment store. MT. Kuhn knows what he wants to say, and he says it in page ads in the local papers, and petitions to the gov- ernor of Illinois the legislature, the Commerce Commission, and anybody else who can be reach In one of these petitions he says:
 "Our local rates have been in- erased recently as follows:
 Telephone, from 80 per cent to 100 per cent.
 Heat from 60 per cent to 83 lper cent.
 Water, from 25 per cent to TO per cent.
 Cur people are getting good land sick If rate increase after rate increase, based upon the f1imsiest Arguments and little Tor no investigation.
 We citizens of Champaign and Urbana, request that your honorable body (the legislature) investigate the truth of these statements, and we pray you for action, and quick action, against this outrageous gouging of the Ipublic's pocketbook.
 "The people know in their hearts they are being treated like so many sheep. The util- ities use the money the consum- CT pays them to justify rate in creases before the Commerce Commission, and the Commis- sion has not had either the will to say no or the wit to see the joke at the expense of the con- sumer."
The Alaskan., 1929-04-19

that in each and every year while George Parks has been governor, there has been a dis tlnct LOSS IN POPULATION in Alaska.
 Tn the year 1928, the net loss in population was 739.
 We venture to say that MT. Parks would soon find out what the trouble with Alaska was if he would let loose of the govern ment payroll which has always been his during the twenty years in Alaska.
 The people are here. They are willing to work. But the work is not given by cannery, sawmill or other corporations to Alas kans Fish are caught by huge traps owned by outsiders. Noth- ing is left for the White People of Alaska except Ito return from whence they came"
 If this continues, Alaska will again become INDIAN COUN- TRY.
