FROM MORN TILL NIGHT


 Many a book has been written and read during the wee small hours of the morning; indeed, some authors cannot work properly at any other time, while some readers who get plenty Of sleep or rest in the daytime find the accompani- mcnt of night a pretty time for browsing with the printed page.
 Until this modern age arrived, however. there was no such thing as listening to music except at stipu- lated hours. usually in the early evening
 A printer told us the other day that last New Years he started his radio early in the morning and kept it running until after mid night. What a dose of music that must have been. He didn't say whether he enjoyed it all day. or even whether he listened more than a part of the time. We came 10 he instant conclusion that music un- der such circumstances could easily degenerate into vice.
 Lately broadcasting stations have hit upon a new idea. They have been starting earlier in the morn ing, even on Sunday morning. One concern started it and the other quickly followed. Then others thought of even earlier hours. and the most modern wrinkle is to start broadcasting at a. m. and calling the time every ten minutes, so that the harassed commuter or fellow going to work will be con- stantly reminded amid the barragc Of phonograph records over the air just how long he has to catch the next train, the next car, or Use his car in the dash downtown.
 This carly morning business has an advantage over the late-at-n night music melange. We never did think much of broadcasting late at night. from experience that it in- terferes with sleep and makes the next day an inefficient work day. Yet the same broadcasters who start at ' a. m and even earlier tend 10 keep their plants working until midnight and even later. In the West there is d station which delights in keeping it's apparatus working until a. m., possibly to interest morning newspaper boys.

every two years. Are these inferior to those who are appointed?
 The election Of executive and legislative members of the state government seems as important a process as the election Of the Judiciary. There can be no question that the people would in most in stances elect as good judges as those who secure appointment, and sometimes better judges. In the 4 states where the judiciary is elected the people are not throwing com petent judges out Of oflice-many of them are reelected term after term, as Judge Gaffney is usually re elected to the Probate court in this city. But when they show indisput- able tendencies to become mentally lazy. arrogant and lacking in judi cia fairness, the people quickly note it through the decisions and act accordingly.
 In many of the states where judges are elected they go bctor2 the people upon a nonpartisan bal lot, and of course in virtually all in stances conduct their campaigns m a dignifiad manner, as befits thelf office. If the election Of judges turn cd into a cheap political scramble for office, as is the nature in some branches Of politics, of course then there would be nothing to command the plan.

Julian Leader, Former
 Alaska Miner, Is Back
 On Job, Swinging Pick

TACOMA, April 24.-On a Puget Sound island S. c. Lewis, former California financial genius and head of the Julian Petroleum Company at the time of its collosal crash, was back at the job he had held in his youth.
 There was a difference, though. When he was a miner in Alaska and Siberia, Lewis swung pick in the hope of finding wealth.
 At the federal prison on McNcil Island he works in a labor gang because that was the task assigned to him
 Today is the 14th day of a seven year sentence the former oil magnate must serve for his part in the financial disaster that wiped out the investments of thousands of Californians.
 At the gate Roy Olmsted, former Seattle police lieutenant, who is serving a sentence which followed the wrecking of his liquor ring, took the new prisoners hat and shoe measurements. Lewis was given rough clothing and assigned to a labor gang.

STUDENTS HAVE TOTEM TAG DAY
High School Prepares for Distribution of Fine
 1930 Yearbook

Don't be baShful-Buy Totem I have" is the slogan which the students of the Juneau High School have adopted and are wearing to- day, official tag-day for the twenty third annual school yearbook.
 This years Totem truly is bigger and better than ever. Even the cover has been changed, and the former conventional dark jacket has been discarded in favor of bright blue with an original design in brown.
 The book is entertaining through out. Cuts and printing are un- usually clear, in brown ink, and a fine grade of paper has been used.
 The 1930 Totem is dedicated to Father A. P. Kashevaroff iri honor of his years of service for Alaska.
 In assembling the material for the Annual an entirely original idea was carried out. Indian folk lore was selected as the theme, all divisions have been given Indian names, and representative Indian legends were chosen for each class, with appropriate illustrations.
 Under the direction of Miss Doro- thy Israel, English instructor the Totem has been carefully prepared, and contains much original mater ial
 Another of the major improve ments in the Totem is its size. While in former years the Annual has been unusually narrow this year it is much wider, and is the largest publication of the Totem since 1915.
 Students having charge of the distribution announce that the To- tenn will be issued and ready for distribution Monday.

FORD PROJECT
 IS "CIv!LIzINC'
Great Influence Said to Be Exercised on Banks
 of Amazon

RIO JANEIRO, April 24-From the fact that the Indians inhabit- ing the country around the Ford rubber concession on the Tapajos River have given their confidence to the American enterprise to such an extent that they bring their sick to be treated there, the possibilities of the enterprise as a civilizing in- fluence loom large in the opinion of Major Lester Baker, American military attache, who recently vis- ited the Amazon Valley.
 Major Baker was particularly 1m- pressed with the work done by Captain E. Oxholm, Manager of the concession, and his staff in provid- ing sanitary living quarters for the 1900 employees, something rare in that part of Brazil. There are only nine foreigners employed at Ford landia
 After travelling through hundreds of miles of jungle to come into Fordlandia is like a dream" Major Baker said. Here is a little corner of the United States. There are six sets of staff houses and four foremens quarters. All are equipped with modern plumbing, electric lights, telephones, electric refrig- orators, washing machines, screens, pianos and victrolas
 "The finding of such homes in a country where the ordinary dwell

 Wharves 24o feet long have been constructed and there are five power boats in the river equipment. More than 100 miles of road have been constructed.
 There is a hospital of 100 beds in charge of Dr. c. Beaton and a trained nurse makes daily visits to the native village.
 A radio station communicates with the branch office at Para, farm for growing vegetables is in operation and a range of 500 acres grazes the cattle used for beef.
 Planting is going on rapidly, an average of a hundred acres week being cleared of tropical growth and placed under cultivation.

FIRE LOSS ON
 MAL0NY BLOCK IS QUITE HIGH
No Additional Insurance Carried on Building
 Gordon's Unknown

That the property loss on the Malony Building, which was prac- tically destroyed by fire yesterday morning, is as large as originally feared, was the statement made this morning by Robert Coughlin custodian of the building, who de- clared that the only insurance car ried was what had been written by local insurance agents.
 This amount, as it was announced yesterday, is only $3,750, part of which is carried by Mrs. J. F. Ma loney, and the remainder by L. c. Hill, who has one-quarter inter- est.
 At the present time Mrs. Maloney is in Seattle, and does not expect to come north for some time, MT. Coughlin said today MT Hill is in Milltown, New Brunswick, and has not been heard from.
 It is not definitely known yet whether the stock at Gordon's, Inc, valued at approximately $17,000, is covered by additional policies in the States. While this presump- tion has been made, Mrs. Winifred Jones said this morning she had heard nothing from MT. Gordon concerning loss coverage.
