WHERE AID IS NEEDED.

The Anchorage Times, in recent tissue, under the above caption, plain .ly states the situation hereabouts re- sEarding the necessity for the station ing of a government physician in this interior section. The Times article squite timely, very appropriate, and aOne which may prove of real help to the residents of this section-is as follows:
 Readers of The Times who know something of that vast area of Alas lka embracing the upper Kuskokwim, Iditarod and Ophir districts, will give sympathetic support to the appeal which is being made for the station ing of government physician there. None of the communities within the area are sufficiently populous to igive adequate support to a physician :and the only way in which the situa- ation can bas relieved seems to be through government aid.
 Tt is the white residents of the sdistrict who are making the appeal, but they do not speak for themselves salone. There are in the district more natives than there are whites and, being wards of the government, these natives are are dependent upon rthe government for aid when illnness lrenders them incapable of caring for themselves. Their health cannot be properly safeguarded with the near sest physician 300 miles away and not even trained nurse among them to give them first aid.
 '.The stationing of physician in the district wou ldimprove conditions among the natives and give them protection in time of epidemic; it would also relieve tendency to dis courage residence in that isolated re- Kion. The government knows what the conditions there are and so does the new chief of the Federal Bureau of Education; between them they may be able to find way to grant the appeal. They cannot say the re- s4uested service is not needed"

THE OLD-TIME FIGHTERS.

"L drove John L., Sullivan, too" said Mir. Louis Repeti, one of the hack drivers of the nineties, in an in- terview for the World, s"and - Bob Fitzsimmons, but I didn't care so much about them. Old John. l.. would kick the windows out of your. cab if he felt like it, and F'itzsimmons had habit of offering to fight you, for his fare." And here, it seems to us, is one aspect of the good old days that gets too, little attention.
 1t IS all very well to argue that in this glorious time the fighters were tougher. and probably they. were, yet when you stop to. think A- about L, it, toughness is one of those things which have their advantages and their disadvantages. Fighters, it should be remembered, do not spend all of their time in the ring. In fact, they da not spend even 1 per cent of their time in the ring. The ether .99 per cent plus making speeches, set ting an example to the youth of the land 14ndawhat citizen would like to haue hlss -sHn. emulate John L.. Suli- van2 s4OT Robert Fitzsimmons?

Much better, in our opinion, is the modern type of fighter, like Dempsey, whaA addresses the Wisconsin senate, or like Tunney, who gives lectures4at Yale 7
 And so far as the time spentsiniithe ring goes, if you match Sullivan against Dempsey, and Fitzsimmons againzs Tnnney, GOT vice versa, our m0ueys will be on the amodern lads every time.

A drive to enlist support for the

The bill calls for a board Of nine

three years with the terms of three
persons expiring each year. 1t pro-
vides that men and women be
equally eligible to serve There
would be three electoral divisions.
in each of which would be voting

DRY AGENTS AID
HOWELL PLAN

Officials OF the prohibition unit
are assisting Senator Robert B.
Howell Of Nebraska in framing
prohibition legislation for the Dis.
trict, it was learned today.
Senator Howell stated he has been
in conference with several Federal
dry officials, and will meet with
them later to determine the course
his proposed 'bone.dry" bill will
take.
The Nebraskan said the prohibi-
tion agents and directors are
unanimous in the opinion that
Washington needs additional legis-
lation to bring about more effective
enforcement of the liquor laws.
The principal point on which
Howell is seeking advice from dry
officials is the character and
amount Of information necessary for
District policeman to make a
liquor raid. He proposes to give
police more latitude than they
have under the present law.

Ideal For Future

Today the commune "Lenin" has

The commune Is run by an able

| Every able-bodied man and
woman has a job. Work starts at
5 a. m. and ends at 8 p. M. with
time out for three meals, making a
| 10-hour day in summer and an
eight-hour day in winter.
The farm works like a well-man-

sometimes work "a hours a day in

Financially the commune has
been made success after four
profitless years, largely through the
development of sideline industries
like a flour mill. cheese factory
and butcher shop in kirsanov.
The commune, however, is not
run for profit. The members get
an average daily wage OF l ruble,
out of which 40 kopeks Ia deducted
for board. Their lodgings are free,
the education of their children is
free, movies and entertainments
are free and they have the assur-

These services to members are
carried on the books as a loss of
$4,000 rubles in 1928.
In addition the commune is the
center of educational and social
work for the whole surrounding
country. Tractors are rented out
to neighboring collective farms,
speakers are sent out to surround

commune for movie shows and en-
