DESIRE is FULFILLED
Vice Admiral Leigh Reaches Boat
in Time for Christmas.

Vice Admiral Leigh Reaches Boat
in Time for Christmas.
One West Coast admiral was able to
eat Christmas dinner aboard his flag
ship, after being on official duty in the
National Capital for most of this month,
although it was a close connection to
get from Washington to San Pedro,
Calf, in time for Yuletide turkey.
His friends at the Navy Department
learned yesterday that Vice Admiral
Richard H. Leigh, until recently chief
Of the Bureau of Navigation here, ate
his Christmas dinner aboard the u. s. S.
West Virginia. his flagship He had
been detailed to washington for tempo
rary duty as member of the Nays
Selection Board which has the task of
picking senior officers for promotion. In
fact, Admiral Leigh was the only West
Coast admiral chosen for this duty. As
he saw Christmas approaching he was
apprehensive lest he would have to
spend 1t away from his fellow officers
Of the West Virginia.
The Selection Board, however, worked
late on December 10 and finished I'D its
work week ago yesterday morning. AS
soon as its report was signed by Presi-
dent Hoover Admiral Leigh got aboard
a train and hastily made his way to
California.

ADDITIONAL RELIEF
LEGISLATION SOUGHT
Caraway Plans Bill Asking $15,.
100000 Fund for Food
Loans.

BY the Associated Press.
Secretary Hyde's announcement that
no part of the $45, 000,0 900 drought relief
fund will be used for food loans resulted
yesterday in demands for additional
relief legislation.
Senator Caraway, Democrat, Arkansas,
announced he would introduce a bill
after Christmas recess to increase the
fund to $60,000,000, as originally pro-
posed in the Senate bill. and to make
the additional $15,0O0,000 available for
loans.
Hyde said yesterday the supplemental
estimate for $45, 900 900 had been sub
mitted to the House Appropriations
Committee and Agriculture Department
experts were prepared to testify tomor-
row. He added he expected immediate
action on the request.
The Secretary said he still believed
the $4,000 900 recommended by the ad-
ministration would suffice. He pointed
out, however, that the provision for
relief for storm areas which was added
to the act would require funds above
the SIS, 000,0Oo originally recommended.

BY the Associated Press.
The Mellon proposal to allow income
tax reductions on corporation chari-
ties has, been laid aside by the House
Ways and Means Committee.
Chairman Hawley said yesterday
there was no plan pending for con-
sideration of the proposal.
Should the Treasury press it, we
would give it a hearing out of courtesy,
but what the committee would do after
that no one knows" he said.
Hawley said he would call UP for
committee consideration next month q
bill to reduce international double taxa

another measure to pay $4,000, 900 of
war claims to enemy aliens. The latter
would reimburse claimants to patents

David S. ingalls,, Assistant Secretary

not less than / 500 feet altitude.
There are no exceptions to the order,

tetanus which means "lockiaw"?
 Is not the $1 or S2 that we spend when tag day comes around a cheap insurance that if any accident should happen to us we have near at hand the very best that modern science can provide? Why "beef'?
 Let us remember that the board opened the books to Bishop Rowe on his recent visit here, and that he was so we'll pleased with the man. agement that out of very limited fund that he has for such purposes he donated $500 to the hospital.
 Now again as to hospital expens- es. It is as necessary to have 8 full force of workers when there are only one or two patients as when there are ten. Laundry bills are necessarily high. Beds for some pa- tients are changed several times a day. Insulin and special food for patients must always be at hand. The X-ray is costly. A box of plates costs $10, and like all other photo plates part may have to be thrown away before they are used. Light and fuel bills have to be paid.
 The hospital is always open for inspection and is always ready to take you into its confidence.

CHANGE IN SYSTEM

The attention of our readers is called to the fact that with this is sue the practice of distributing The Sentinel by street sellers will be discontinued, with the exception of one or two sellers in the downtown district. Instead The Sentinel will be delivered by carrier to regular subscribers at their homes, as is the common custom in practically all other towns and cities. Or the subscriber may receive the paper by mail at the same price if desired.
 The adoption of this system is not a scheme to force subscriptions by taking off street sellers. It is rather part of a plan to give the people of Wrangell the same ser vice that is given by newspapers elsewhere; to relieve them of the bother of responding to half a doz- en calls at the door to buy paper, and to save them a trif1e of $1.29 a year, the difference between the yearly subscription price and the cost at 10 cents a week. The Sen tinel will profit, of course, by build ing up it's subscription list, but if you are interested in seeing the paper improved for your benefit you will not begrudge us this increase in business.
 We might also at this time re- mind our advertisers that with the next, the first issue in November, the increase in advertising rates will go into effect. To those who may feel that their present expen- diture. for advertising is all they can afford, we suggest that they re- duce the size of their ad a trifie. We have no fear of not being able to fill our advertising space at the increased rate; in fact, judging from the response so far, our prob lem is going to be how to care for increasing business with our limit ed equipment. Circumstances may force us to continue the paper in it's present form through the win ter, but with the coming of spring it seems apparent that we will have to have either larger or a more frequently published newspaper.

OPEN FORUM
NOW HE OUGHT TO KNOW

To Mir. Curious:
 The writer of this letter has sometimes been a little in sympathy with your sentiments, not that he has at any time doubted the wisdom and economy with which the hos pital has been managed, but he has deemed it would have been better policy to take the public into it's confidence. Here however it might be we'll to remember that the board of directors is composed of some of the busiest people of the town, and that their services are given to the board without any compen- sation whatever. In cities such ser- vices are usually paid for at every board meeting they attend.
 Sometimes. the board in making purchases where thene was no mon- ey available and where the material had to be had for the efficiency of the hospital, has made itself re- sponsible for paying for the pur- chase.
 Now, is it not a little out of place for people to make complaints when the books are always open for in- spection?
 MT. Curious should remember that no hospital in the country pays ex- penses even when there are large number of patients. They are all compelled to have outside help.
 Hospitals are compelled to keep clean. This costs money and plen- ty of it. Then there are the ser ums that must always be kept on hand. These serums are very costly and it should also be remembered that they loose their virtue in about six months and must be replaced. The one for tetanus has never been used since the hospital was built, and yet is it not a comforting thought to know that man is practically sure he is not in dan ger from suffering from the terrible

 You will find my name on the Democratic ticket.

Notice to Advertisers
TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE

On the eve of election it is the custom among newspapers to pub fish solemn exhortations to voters to get out and do their stuff on- election day. Records fail to show whether or not such exhortations ever produced desired results. Peo- pie seem to have their own ideas about voting and they vote or not according to their fancy.
 We aren't going to urge or ex- hort anyone to do anything. It's as much your privilege not to vote as it is your duty to vote. But what you should consider is this: If you DON'T vote you are throw ing away the only opportunity and the only method you have of bet tering the things in Alaska which you think need betterment. If you DON'T vote. you're giving silent consent to the proposition that you don't care what happens to Alaska anyway, and that as far as you're concerned someone else can worry about Alaska's problems.
 That spirit seems to have fairly strong foothold in the States. Peo- pie oustide refuse to exercise their voting privilege, and then set up a great cry about monopolistic con- trol. The same thing can happen in Alaska. The same think WILL happen in Alaska-and it may be happening today-but the only way we can determine if there is pro test against it is by the number of votes cast next Tuesday.
 If you're interested in Alaska at all you must be ion or against something or somebody. Then why not show up at the polling place Tuesday and do something about it?

 Although not acquainted with Walter T. Neubert, editor of the Ketchikan Tribune, judging by the reports we have heard of him and the appearance of the new paper, we see reason to believe that the venture will prove a success and a credit to Ketchikan. We wish the Tribune lots of luck.
