BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE.

The review given The Empire by Mayor Judson of the work done in community improvements dur ing the current Councimanic year carries convincing proof that the City Council has been building not only for the present but looking integenty forward to the future needs of the city. The list of per manent improvements submitted is impressive. Con- sidering the vast amount of work done the cost was very reasonable, and its distribution wisely made
 Municipal government cannot be successfully con- ducted haphazardly There must be careful plan ming by skilled officers and work definitely pro- grammed if the needs of the city are to be filed Lacking such program, there is sure to be waste ful expenditures and lack of the various facilities which every community must possess if it is to be a habitabe home town.
 Mayor Judson and the Council of which he is head has given Juneau such administration. It has reason to take pride in it's numerous better ments and the town itself similarly be proud of it's possession of them The facts set forth by MT Judsons review it appeared in The Empire and the figures contained in the published financial statement for the first eleven months of the Citys fiscal year furnish ncontrovertibe proof of the eff ciency of the present municipal administration.

anything else it is hoped that the results were Of such a nature as to justify the immediate launching of the venture. There is a fallow field in South eastern Alaska and between it and Puget Sound for capital invested in aerial transportation. Having been the first to be the ground to study and observe local conditions President Mccarthy and his business associates in position to take advantage of the opportunities that may be found to exist
 The United States is taking to the air rapidly. Planes are operating successfully in and to the very great advantage of interior and northern Alaska. Mails have been expedited passengers carried safely and economically, all things considered, over dis tances heretofore formidable under other modes of travel. The establishment of an aerial service To- cally will bring the benefits here. As the pioneer in the field the operators of the Boeing flying boat making the first trip, is in deservedly
 fine position to reap the financial rewards that seem sure to accrue from the venture

Injuring Our Best Customer.
(New York World ]

It is high time for the Republican leaders in Washington to stop long enough in mad scramble for increased taif duties to see where their plans are taking us. The present tariff agitation is not only counteracting any positive effects that may have been achieved by MT Hoovers goodwill tour among neighbors to the south it is plainly having equally undesirable effects on the goodwill of our neighbor in the north If the tariff spokes- men have their way there will be virtual embargo on Canadas exports of foodstuffs and raw materials to the United States. This possibility has already measures
 Canada is now our best customer Her recent purchase of products have placed her ahead of Great Britain in this respect But these purchases will not hold up if the high-tarif advocates get what they are after. Canadian imports amount to only drop in the bucket when compared with our total domestic consumption, but to their producers the loss of this market will mean disaster. It will not be necessary for these producers to organize boycott against American goods With tariff rates sufficiently high they will have to refrain involuntarily from buying

VALLEY NEARS
LOADNCPEAK
Report l89 Cars Out
Tuesday. With IS
Of Cabbage

Heavy loading Of vegetable was re-
sumed Tuesday at practically all
shipping points in the Valley with
n total of ls9 cars moving out We'd
nesday, only % ears under the peak
attained last week. OF this total Sc
ears were loaded with cabbage, and
considerable cabbage also moved out
in mixed cars.
Dealers continued 70 pay SIS per
ton for cabbage Wednesday, but re-
ports from central markets were not
encouraging. Cold weather Monday
and Tuesday reduced retail sales. il
was stated. and many of the markets
are over-supplied.
The heavy movement of cabbage
was a surprise TO shippers who had
predicted that Tuesday loadings Of
that commodity would not exceed 80
cars. They regarded the heavy
movement with considerable appre-
hension as 20 its effect on the rem
trail markets which still are endeav-
oring to cut down the accumulated
stocks.
Reports OF freeze damage received
in Brownsville Wednesday indicate
that the major loss was sustained in
the Mercedes section where truck
paintings are heaviest The damage
was confined principally 20 beans,
corn and tomatoes, though all grow
ing crops received a setback. In the
Brownsville section IL Is estimated
that bean production will be cut so
per cent us n result OF the low tenn
perature. but the potato and tomato
crops escaped almost unscathed.
Bean fields Wednesday were be-
ginning TO show the result Of damage.
Though very few acreages will be a
total loss. experienced bean growers
assert that the acreage will produce
less than half n crop. Corn also was
seriously damaged. and several grow
ers started replantinE Wednesday.
No damage to citrus fruit or trees
was reported from any part Of the
Valley. The low temperature Sun
day night was accompanied BY suffi-
cient wind TO prevent damage to
those trees which are beginning TO
blossom. growers said.
Reports Wednesday from the Cor
pus Christi-Robstown district con-
firmed earlier reports of heavy dam
age to the CABBAGE crop. and the
onion growers of the Laredo and
