THE INDIANS OUGHT TO MAKE
 THEMSELVES FREE.

The Indians of Southeast Alaska could do lot to aav racial controversy if they would repudiate the political leadership of those who have been casting their votes for several years As long as the Indians march to the polls in solid phalanx and cast their ballots as MT. Paul dictates there will be certain amount racial feeling It is natural ly and inevitably so
 The Indians have given self lf-apponted political boss united support for many years. Not only have they voted as they been told to vote but they have contributed much money to the political boss They have got nothing u return but empty prom ises and the opprobrium that always attaches to bossed political machines.
 The Indian leaders have preached to them that their interests and those of the salmon pack CTS are antagonistic and that they must stand to- gether take away the fish traps from the canners and do other things to them. Yet while the mass of Indians that vote as they are told get nothing, their leaders take money from the canners to help make certain their title the traps The Indians are induced to dig up money to prosecute suits against the Government for some $20000OO0 for Indian rights" they have been made to believe the Gov erment has hornswoggled The rights are such as the Executive Branch of the Government has decided do not exist The leaders of the Indians take over the contributions, but Congress refuses to consider a bill to permit them to bring suit The Indians have been paying out hard-earned money for years and have got nothing but political bunk in exchange.
 If the Indians would arise in their might and throw their self-appointed leaders overheard and thereafter permit each individual Indian to vote as individual American citizen instead Of as member of an organized and controlled bloc of vot- CTS it would serve notice on would-be exploiters that they would do well to treat the Indians as American citizens and not voting slaves.
 The white people of Alaska do not desire to do injury to the Indians They realize that the de- sirable destiny of the Indians is that they even tually take their places members of the citzenry and social structure that is being erected in Alaska They want that condition brought about as quickly as the Indians prepare for it. The Indians cannot prepare for such a station by organizing themselves into a solid bloc blocs and voting in mass at the dictation of political boss When they do that they emulate the very worst we have in politics.
 The Indians ought to defeat MT. Paul and his ticket and make themselves free.

AMERICANS WIN FISHERMEN'S SAIL.
 ING CHAMPIONSHIP.

This has been great year for American sports men They have not only won another victory for the Americas cup successfully defended the polo championship and won all the golf champion ships but now the pride of Gloucester has the fishing schooner race gathering in the trophy given by Sir Thomas Lpton for the first time in ten years. After all it is rather fitting that Sir Thomas's cup must come to America He de- feated by Americans for the greatest of all tokens of sailing skill and it would to fit into such situation for the other trophy, the he gave himself to come to this country and thus complete the mastery of sailing on the sea. The Canadian schooner Buenose had held it for ten years
 The International Fishermen's. race is entirely different in it's scope from the for the Am ercas cup The fsherrnens must be between actual fishing craft that have service on the fishing banks. The Americas cup races are be- tween racing machines-boats that built only for fast sailing. The crews in the fishermens race made up of fishermen who earn their daily bread by catching fish The Americas Cup races sailed in recent times, by those who follow yachting as a sport. It takes both trophies to represent actual mastery of the sea.

Alaska Air Mall Service Needed.
Pacific Fisherman.)

With the rapid advance of air transportation and radio communication in Alaska, much has been done in the last year or two to overcome the handcaps of distance and isolation in the North fisheries One important step remains to be taken, however, and this is greatly needed-the es- tablishment of an air mail service in Alaska which until now has been refused.
 Air transportation in the Territory is no longer an experiment The last season has shown it to be thoroughly practical and reable-probably much so as on most of the overland routes fol- lowed. From the operating standpoint, there is longer any reason why such a service should not be established; while there is greater need of such service in Alaska than in any other part of the country.
 By the existing air taxi service packers have Bristol Bay points within days, allowing for all stops en route Mail to that district requires 30 days at the least while several weeks are often required for mail communication with Southeast Alaska points except those that are regular ports of call for all steamers There is longer any need for such delays.
 Quick delivery of mail would be of great aid not only to the fishing industry, but to the mer- chants and people of Alaska, and in many ways It would enormously facilitate the transaction of business it would make Alaska a desirable place to live, and would be important factor in maintaining cheerful spirit among seasonal work CTS Further the ability to deliver parcel post articles such as small but essential spare parts and the like, would often important savings to packing plants.
 Establishment of such service would probably be the simplest, most useful and practical thing that the Government could do toward the develop ment of Alaska and building up it's population

HAPPY

holding his own for a second

thrilling office romance called

admirably clean-cut and hand.

Ing best and speaks with an ex-
pressive baritone drawl that
lends background to the au-
dacious smart aleck he por-
trays.
The fun begins when Tom
Ward, fresh from college out
races an express train, kisses
the girl of the moment and
promptly crashes into a tree,
this being his general idea of
life. There are serious mo-
ments of poignant appeal, but
they only serve to strengthen
the story without dulling the
sparkling mood of the picture.
One hilarious gag after an
other follows with a staccato
speed, typical of rash youth
claShing with q practical world.
The comedy is also novel,
startling and convulsing in ma,
ture. A cave-man finale finds
the audience breathless. but
nevertheless deliciously refreshed,
from gales of lusty laughter.

blonde, is well chosen for the

REWARD FOR
 NANUK GIRL
Marion Swenson to Receive Honors for Her Hard
 ships in Arctic
Seattle Times, Jan. D

From the long frozen night of the Arctic to the bright lights and warmth of a glittering hotel in New York-this will be part of Marion Swenson's reward for her hardship aboard the icebound mo- torship Nanuk, now marooned at North Cape, Siberia.
 Such was the word sent to Se- attle today by Alfred J. Lomen, director of relief operations in be- half of Carl Ben Eielson and Earl Borland, Alaska viators, missing somewhere in the vicinity of the Nanuk.
 In a special dispatch to The Times MT. Lomen told of plans be- ing made by the Hotel Clinton of New York to invite Miss Swenson to go to New York as it's guest immediately after she returns from Il the North. Maurice Cantor, one of the owners of the hotel, is also heavy stockholder in the Sven son Fur Harding Company which owns the Nanuk.
 ! Cantor, admiring the girls forti- tude and patience in the trying winter aboard the Nanuk, where wolves and blizzards howl about the ship as the little group in the cabin hovers about an oil stove and counts the months before the ice breaks up, determined that Marion should be compensated, so 1 he arranged the New York trip for her and sent a radio message to MT. Lomen at Nome, to be re- layed to Marion aboard the Nanuk
 Marion, who is The Times cor respondent at North Cape, went to the Arctic last summer with her father, Olaf Swenson. She express ed hope then the ship would be frozen in. She sought the ad- venture such an event would pro- vide. Her wish was gratified in September when the ice-barrier became so strong that all hope of getting out before spring was aban- doned. The Arctic winter, as Mar ion said in a recent dispatch to The Times, has been one of the most trying in many years. The ships store has run out of nearly every kind of food except the bare staples. enough to keep them alive The natives, who depend on ses mammal and fish for tkcir food are experiencing real hardship be- cause the ice is so thick they are unable to kill walrus or to catcf fish in any quantity.
 Marion is student at Broadway i High School. Her mothr and sis. ter reside in Seattle and her father is with her on the Nanuk.

FIREMEN PLAY KETCHIKAN AT
 8 P. M. TODAY
Return Game Scheduled with First City Bunch
 One Tilt Ahead

The ketchikan basketball five will play it's last game on the Chan nel tonight at 8 o'clock when there will be a return game with the Juneau Bremen quintet in the High School gymnasium.
 On Tuesday evening of this week the two teams played their first game and the visitors won by a score of 29 to 21 in a game that was fairly close throughout. So far the Ketchikan boys have lost but one game, to the Douglas high school The Bremen have a fair chance to hand the visitors another defeat if they play as well as they have in other games this year.
 Locked Poorly Tuesday
 But in order to do it they will have to have better luck than they had Tuesday, both in penetrating the defense of the First City men anu III bOGolllE O1AC Oh4l W1tAl lhO4 v precision. The shooting and pass ing was poor in the first game.
 While Ketchikan plays a con- sistently steady game, the Fire men lately have been playing by spurts, part of the time playing in- spirational basketball and the re- mainder of the time showing poor floor work
 Probable Lineups
 The lineup tonight is uncertain Ketchikan is expected to go on the floor with H. Peterson in center Murphy and F. Peterson, forwards and Hall and Bailey, guards. Hollmann and Blake are the probable forward choices of the Bremen, with Junge or Osborne jumping, and Mangan, Gallwas or Killewich doEg guard work
