CONsCIENCELEsS

In reforming to the publica- tion of a false telegram from Washington, D. C., the Juneau Empire excuses itself in several ways: 1st, it says that it distin- guished the item by printing these words, special despatch to The Empire"
 If the Empire had printed Tom Marquam's name as the author Of the falsehood, nobody would have believed the telegram, as indeed, the Empire itself did not believe the wire, and it thereby designated it as special to The Empire"
 The second excuse is this "The Empire violated no news paper ethics. < Neither did it consciously fprevaricate.'"
 However, The Empire did ''pre- varicate" and since it denies that it was done consciously it must have been done uncon- sciously- that is, without con science, an excuse that is readi- ly believed.

INVESTIGATING COMMUNISM

Jermane's dispatch to the Seattle Times says: Inquiry into the activities of Communists in the United States, which the House has authorized at the re- quest of Representative Under hill of New York, will open up a very interesting question, and, for the first time, give it official status. What the inquiry will disclose nobody knows. There are opin- ions both ways on this point, many Well-informed people be- lieving that the Communists are not nearly as active in propa- ganda work as represented by many 100 per cent Americans. Others hold with equal cOnvic- ton, to the belief that things are much worse than has been represented, and that the in quiry is necessary in order that there may be organized effort on the governments part to bring the offenders to book"
 Fertile Ground
 Communists gain strength, as does any like organization, by flaming the flames of hate, of resentment. The Pennsylvania coalfeldS is a striking example of this. The Coal Barons refuS- ed grant the miners a raise in pay which meant only a few cents a day. When the men walked out, they were ordered out of company houses; they were enjoined from picketing by federal courts which became a part of the system of the coal barons feudalism; men were murdered, women and children were starved. The barons even refused to allow distribution of fresh milk to the children of the miners.

After having read the Ferguson Forum since its

new sources Of revenue and he pledges himself IL

And 1t has come to pass that the Mexican govern
ment has broken relations with the Soviet Russian
government and the Russian ambassador and his
retinue OF advisors and clerks and servants have
been booted out Of the Mexican republic.
Why the break?
Provisional Pres. Gil and his advisors became con-
vinced that communists. led by Soviet Russian agi-
tators, are responsible for the violent demonstra-
tions against Mexico in the capitals Of European ma
tions, South American countries and the United
States.
There is a socialist party In Mexico. 1t a~ffiliates
with the American Federation Of Labor-that Is, it
has enjoyed ~fraternal relations with the American
Federation Of Labor in the past. Luis Morones was
its president and dictator. Where is Morones? What
has happened to his erstwhile powerful organiza-
ton Of Mexican workers?
AS for Soviet Russia. just about the time the Brit
ish government resumed relations with the Slavs,
the Mexican government advised the Russian am
baSsador and his staff to make haste out of Mexico.
and this too without argument or protest against
instantaneous departure.

Soviet Russia. Now will the Idaho eagle continue
his efforts for recognition Of the Slav government or
will he devote al his efforts and all his ability 70

ceptable TO the producers Of the South and the West?

Mayfield Throws Down the
Gauntlet

Former Sen. Earle B. Mayfield is squarely in the
race for governor and unhesitatingly before the
people for the democratic nomination subject TO the
July primary. He is the first Of the candidates to
broadcast his platform from the gulf to the Rockies
and from the Red river to the Rio.
II is q 1000 word message. 1t contains a slashing
attack upon the Moody administration prison To-
cation program. Indeed. James E Ferguson him
self" could not have penned a more scorching iusll-
lade Of words than the Mayfield platform carries IN
q review Of the prison location plan submitted by the
majority Of the commission and which has the in
dorsement Of the governor.
There is another savage attack which bristleS from
foreword to finish in the chapter devoted 70 the
proposed statewide bond issue for highway purposes
but 10 be paid out Of the revenue derived from the
eallonare tax. James E. Ferguson, himself" could
not have coined words OF a more ~ondemnatory ma
ture against what is known as the Sterling bond
Man for building highways and for the building OF
vaps In highways already built In SparSely settled
d,stricts where the voters consistently refuse TO float
bonds for road purposes.
There is another direct attack on the governor 5

SQUIRRELS ARE
 BEING PLANTED
 ON Z ISLANDS
Will Form Source of Food for Fur-Bearing Anil
 mals in Future

Sixty squirrels arc being planted this week on Baranof and Chicha- gof Islands by Warden Frank Du- frcsne of the Alaska Game Commis- sion, under the Territorial game stocking program adopted by the Alaska Legislature several years ago. The animals were captured near Juneau on Glacier Highway.
 The squirrels are expected to fur nish supply of food for fur-bear- ing animals on the two islands. After they have populated the fav- orable. areas sufficiently, marten will be planted on both islands by the Territory.
 There are but few squirrels and no marten on them at present. The program calls for first building up food source and then stocking with the fur-bearers. Several years ago, Ranger George Peterson of the United States Forest Service re- leased pair of squirrels at Sitka These have propagated and spread throughout the entire Sitka dis- trict. The success of this experi- ment resulted in the present stock ing which is on a larger scale than the original Sitka planting.
