WHEN THE SHOE PINCHES

The Wrangell Mill and Power Company of Wrangell is worse than bankrupt; the small saw mill at Ketchikan is so busted that it's oWners-all independ- ently wealthy-refuSe to put in another dime to save it from go- ing on the rocks; the big SaWmill at Ketchikan has its head out of the waters of financial distress, but that is about all that can be said of it. The Juneau Lumber Mills, though it cut ten million fee5 Of logs this year, is scared stiff for what it sees in the hand writing on the wall.
 At a recent conference held in Juneau MT. c. T. Gardner voiced his opinion as to the conditi ,i1 { Of the Jumper lnouSCry. 1ou would have thought, had you heard it, that some one was reading some of the back issues lof The ALASKAN or ALASKA
 FISHERMAN or that William L Paul was speaking. When the
 speaker got through picturing the dire future outlook of the logging and numbering industry
 MT. Paul said, That is the situa-
 tion that has confronted oul
 people for several years. Yot
 are just beginning to get the taste of it."

AGAIN O'MALLEY ADMITS WE
 ARE RIGHT

Last week Acting Secretary oi Commerce Morgan, speaking for Henry O'Malley, U. s. Commis- sioner of Fisheries, published a regulation permitting the taking
 II salmon in KlaWock Inlet fo~ commercial purposes for peri
 cd of ten days.
 We have pointed out that the bureau was breeding only late fish and giving no protection to the June and July runs. Last year we pointed out that th.1 system was causing an over !otocking of certain streams. Thi, wear that theory was again de- monstrated as being correct. So O'Malley by his new regulation, agrees that overseeing of the Klawock area was more harmful than a benefit. Tn other words the contentious of The Alaskan is correct and O'Malley's system of regulation all wrong.
 More and more the cannery-
 men are coming to agree that the O'Malley system is wrong and the system advocated by the
 Alaska Native Brotherhood and
 other Alaskans, is the correct method of controlling the fish l cries.

are so many candidates that \, who have no contact with them, am entirely at sea and know nothing about their Qualifica- tions. Many of your readers, I am sure, would appreciate hav- ling you tell them how to cast their ballots. F. N. JARVIS. Dear MT. Jarvis: Your letter is one of many of its type that have come to The Star recently. Our belief is that a newspapers function is not to try to dictate how it's readers should vote. Rather we prefer to lay the facts before readers and permit them to use their own good judgment.
 In view of the unprecedented number of candidates this fall, and the fact that the election, in many instances, will be de- cided in the primaries, The Star is glad to offer its ideas as to the leading candidates, for the benefit of many readers who have asked for such knowledge. Editor, The Seattle Star. Block Voting
 The Empire dominates a cer- tain class of voters who are of
 he migratory species, due to the manner in which they secure their living. These vote at the behest of the great Napoleon Troy and his Field Marshal Pe- gues and at times the shadow appears greater than the Ma poleonic editor.
 That vote is a solid mass vote Ia vote on racial lines rather than on issues of principle. By which reason such voting is far more a menace to good self-gov- ernment than the vote of any and all the Indians in the Ter ritory combined.

THIS IS PLAIN ENOUGH

We are NOT MAKING ANY FIGHT on Federal bureau be- cause THEY ARE ESSENTIAL under the present system of Government" So says the Ju- nea Empire, that great champi- on of Full Territorial Govern ment.
 But we are in earnest in pro- claiming the right of AlaskanS to administer their game, fur, fisheries and other natural re- sources which are now under control and direction of Federal authority and sincere in our purpose to attain that right without further delay"
 l Which after all means that , the Democratic leaders will not fight the bureau system which is like a millstone dragging the Territory into economic distress That having those bureaus, un- der our system of government they are an essential part of the Territorial government.
 But it does not hurt to spit ID against the wall and for the 'ake of fooling the average voter declare we are in earnest in 3roclaiming the right of Alas kans to administer their game fur, fisheries, etc.
 Declarations without an array of facts means nothing to off cial Washington So under the | platform proclaimed by J. J Corners and published by the Empire, Alaskans may expec' sincere and earnest cooperation with the bureaus essential, so. called, to the government of tht l Territory.
 The question is which are tht bureaus essential to our or an! l system of government?

A REAL BOLSHIvIK

We sat listening to a cannery- man, not long since. He was tell ing us the experiences he had to go through and some of his hardships were not imaginary, by any means. When he got through, We said: If we got out and talked half as plainly to the people and to the federal off, cials at Washington we would be called 'raving radicals We may yet tell some of this mans ex- perienceS.
 There is Nothing
 A prominent millman of the First Division was talking with William L. Paul, telling of the regulations of the Forest Bureau which made it impossible to op- crate at a profit. He asked: "Is there nothing you can do to se- cure relief for uS"? There is nothing that Paul or any other single person can debut col lectively-the more white collar ed Alaskans cry against the con- dltions in Alaska, the more who join-with the IndianS-or any other group to better those con- ditions the sooner the relief.

had a very good revenue from box lumber orders from the can nerieS. Lately the cannerS have been using paper boxes. That source of revenue to the mills is being cut off. There is no mar ket for logs or lumber. Men are laid off. The local business men suffer more than the individual laborer.
 One election year the cannerS placed large orders for boxes with the lumber mills-to keep the mill men quiet or to secure their vote on an anti-Indian platform. The scheme worked. But since then box lumber or |ders have been negligible. Who paid the bill?
 The Export Market
 With no local market for lum- Der and no takers for log orders, the loggers wanted to go into the foreign export market. But they were hedged in by the For est Bureau. With more logs on hand and standing than can be utilizied each year, the local operators cannot ship one stick of hemlock to Japan when or ders for sixty million can be se- cured for the asking.
 Who pays the bill? And re- member that the Indians are fighting this condition and only

TALKING OF LITERATE
 VOTES

The Empire makes much ado about votes in the First Divi- sion: That the Indian voters are unable to select candidates pro- perly because of their qualifica- lions. The following letter ad- dressed to the Seattle STAR is rather elucidating along that line as to the ability of the vot- err in the States to select candi- dates:
 Editor The Star: Why don't you tell us how to vote in the county primary election? There

a small handful of them are in the logging business.
 Who Secured the Change
 MT. Henry O'Malley, in the in terest of conservation, so-called, ruled that resident seiners could not operate a seine with a hook off from the beach. What did the Juneau Empire or the Demo- cratic party of Alaska do about 1t? Did they even register a protest? Not so you would no tice. The Indian "illiterate, mass voters sent in protest after pro- test. Through their spokesman, William L. Paul they demon ctrated to Vice President Curtis the unfairness of the regulation. He presented the matter to the Secretary of Commerce who res cinded that order.
 If you are a fisherman and use the hook-off, remember that the mass voter" got it for you. If you are merchant and cater to the fishermen trade, you owe their added spending power to the "illiterate voters who do not understand issues," sufficiently I, to accept the rulings of King O'Malley.

EMPIRIC INCONSISTENCIES From the Juneau Empire

There is no secret about the fact that Frank H. Foster, veter- an Third Division politician and legislator, during a recent visit nere boosted along the harmony program. In fact, his visit seem cd to have been largely evangel- lstic in its tenor. He took his text from the handbook of prac- tical politics and expounded nightly on party fealty and not without result.
 After convincing his congre- pation here that the only true road to political heaven was in supporting the Republican can didates from the head of the ticket right down thru the en- tire list he carried his stirring message to the Ketchikan Gar cia. His hopeful words brought MT. Paul hotfoot to Juneau and Harmony was fact accomp- liShed."
 In its issue of the 29th of August the Empire states that for obvious reasons the Indian vote did (would) not turn to the Democratic leaders for support. Therefore to avert political ob- liberation, they made overtures to those men they had opposed 90 bitterly in April and brought about an alliance of candidates under a spacious plea of party harmony"
 Does the Empire have so poor an opinion of it's own readers that it contradicts itself within a few days of the first statement which declared Foster had the big harmony idea and personally carried the message to the Ket- chikan Garcia"
 Harmony With One Tune
 This publication will not sup port one candidate who does not subscribe to the platform it has advocated the past four years The Republicans, generally, are appreciating the fact that the issues advocated by this publl- cation are right and they are in cooperating them in their plat form. For which reason this organization is supporting those candidates who openly subscribe to and work to secure the ac- complishment of those princip- les. -
 The Democratic Platform
 The platform annunciated b! the Empire over the signature O MT. J. J. Connors for the Demo cratic party may be summarized in a few words. We paraphras' a paragraph or two of that plat form and it will read as MeSSrs Pegues and Troy expect it to b. read and understood: =. -.
 "Need Intelligent Electorate"
 The Indian voters do not un derstand issues or realize thei import; they do not weigh tn candidates and parties they re present; they are not capable o studying those issues nor d. they read about them in tn Daily Empire and they do no discuss them with their Demo cratic fellows. They are an elect crate dominated by the will o one or two leaders that votes a a unit oftimes without bein able to read the name of tn candidates for whom they vot and without the knowledge o the existence of the office a stake, they are real menace t self-government Last Apr MT. Gardner and MT.

A Cultural Capital
BY HOWARD TABER

We live in an age Of astonishing activity Never
before has the tempo of life been 50 rapid Never
before has life been so varied.
Despite . temporary business depression that is
world-Wide the standards of living incomparably
higher today than quarter of century ago.
Life was never so colorful, amusing. There is
little reason for boredom in such an age.
Though American civilization is in many funda-
mental ways mechanistic there is abundant to
believe that the United States is destined be the
cultural center Of the world.
The arts follow money. Where there is no need to
culture painting and music Where shelter s adequate
to the things Of the mind and the spirit
1t is still true Of course, that America bOrrows
largely from Europe. But with business foundation
such there is in this country there Is every
to believe that in the not distant future there win
cultural Towering in this country perhaps without
precedent in history.
Washington win play an enormous part in this
program it is safe prediction
For the serious scholar Washington is unequaled.
Here is the Library of Congress, greatest in the
country The splendid Shakespearean library with
ts liberal endowment will be the greatest Of It's kind
in the world truly fitting shrine for the greatest Of
draatists The various art galleries here are growing
in size and quality.
Here great universities with ample facilities for
the younger student and the advanced research worker
There is evidence that Washington win be the very
center Of the intellectual life Of the nation. Already
1t is world capital in the cultural as well az the
political sense finer place for serious study could
hardly be imagined
