SPONSORING A PRINCIPLE.

William E. Borah Chairman of the Committee Foreign Relations in the United States Senate, in a letter has informed J. E. Edell, Commander of the Downey, Idaho, post of The American Legion, that he is in favor of the principle of universal draft or service, in time of war, according to Ma tional Headquarters of the Legion.
 The principle of universal service, to be employed only if war occurs, is sponsored by the Legion. It provides for equal service of power industries, material and other clements of national life, should this country again become involved in con- flict. Senator Borah, when requested to state his stand, informed the Legion post commander of his support of the principle.
 The Legion believes that definite understand ing between the various groups in country quickly and satisfactorily be reached in a con- ference. resolution, which calls for the creation by Congress of commission, to study the problem and agree upon a plan for the operation of such
 principle, has been adopted by vote of The House of Representatives. similar resolution on the calendar of the Senate, and awaits vote by that body
 The counsel of the of the Legion, who have witnessed from first hand experience the losses injustice of not having such law in existence ir the World War, should influence the Senate to likewise adopt the resolution which will be a ster toward enacting this principle into the basic law oi land

A CONCRETE REASON FOR BETTER
 MAIL RATES.

It is the well known policy of the Federal Gov ernment to foster the upbuilding of the American Merchane Marine by paying .liberally for the car rying of United States mails on American owned ships operating between American and foreign ports One of the direct results of this policy has been a restoring of the American Flag to the seven seas. More and more vessels flying the national colors ply between ports of the United States and those of the whole world And larger commodious, faster and efficient ships compose the added fleets that have been in good part made possible through such policy.
 While the route between Seattle and Alaska ports is not in the American-foreign port category, nevertheless the American companies operating ships on the route are entitled to consideration when they perform services similar to that rendered by the former This the viewpoint taken by the Alaska Legislature year ago when it memorialized Postmaster General Brown to grant increased mail contract rates on the Seattle-Alaska port routes when agreements should be made for the service.
 The early entrance of the new steamship Aleu- tian, of the Alaska Steamship Company on the Seattle Seward run is a concrete reason why such rate increases are justified Despite the fact that volume production of the copper industry, largely controlled by allied interests. is sharply declining and the end of production definitely in sight unless orebodies are developed, the company has in- vested large in this ship. It is vessel that offers Alaska travel every convenience and one capable of performing service that any line might take pride in Its addition to the companys Alaska fleet is indication of its policy to keep well abreast of local development and to give twentieth century transportation facilities even where con- ditions are not yet advanced to that stage.
 As long it is the Governments policy to recognize this kind of transportation development between home and foreign ports, undoubtedly it can with equal proprety give the sort of recogni- tion to domestic improvements of the same class.

VAST PLAIN IS ST0REHOUSEOF
 HAITPS WEALTH
Future Gold Mine Is to Come Under Amer ican Cultivation
By HAROLD P. BRAMAN { Associated Press Steff Writerl

| Associated Press Staff Writer)
 PORT AU PRINCE, Haiti, Apri l24,-On the edge of this seaport extending back tothe border O | Santo Domingo, lies the plain O the Cul de Sac which American agricultural experts here term tht future gold mine" of Haiti.
 Rich in potential export wealth something of which Haiti now ha: nothing, the vast plain is only Nsparsely planted with products ca 1pable of being sold in other lands and it awaits the hand of the de veloper.
 Except for some sugar and cof- fee, Haiti consumes all it produces and imports much besides. The American experts are trying to con vince the country that it never will amass any degree of wealth and get into the prosperous class unless it develops an export trade
 Plan for Operations
 These men advise the careful and planned planting of such export products as can be marketed satis- factorily, and they believe the Cul de Sac is an excellent spot to put such plans into operations. There are other larger valleys awaiting development, buts this one is near to the ships and close to eliza tion
 Corn, sugarcane, coffeee, bananas, tobacco, and similar products could be raised to much advantages, and cotton of an excellent fiber would well repay the effort to plant it in large quantities, say the Americans
 Corn Production
 The experts have been trying to get the Haitians to raise corn in hope they will get enough to ex- port. Several special types of corn have been developed on various agricultural extension farms. The chief difficulty is educating the peasant, who takes his few pounds to market and lets it go at that. The foreign experts are convinced someone with vision will have to do the developing

 Though the government and the American advisers insist the taxes are negligible the tobacco and al- cohol taxes have cut down produc- ton of these two products. The people detest them as a matter of principle, and even after President Hoover's Investigating committee left. large placards denouncing the taxes remained in prominent places all over Haiti.

DEMOCRATIC GAIN PREDICTED.

Mark Sullivan, writing in the New York Herald Tribune, in analysis of the political year just now opening, predicts that the Democratic Party will make some gains of strength in the Senate. That body is at present constituted of 56 Republ- cans including the so-called insurgents" 39 Demo- crats and a single Farmer-Labor member.
 There are 35 seats to be filled this year. Of this number g now held by Republicans and l3 by Democrats Ten of the latter from Southern States, and conceded to be sure of retention by the Democratic Party The other three Iowa Montana and New Mexico, are the only ones in which Democratic losses might conceivaby occur Walsh of Montana and Bratton of New Mexico however have better than an even chance for re- election Iowa normally Republican, if it continues Steck the Democratic Senator, will be proof of a more significant state of public feeling than now seems to exist.
 Thus, in the Demoratic seats at stake the Re- pubicans cannot possibly capture more than three

Minneapolis, Sept. 13.-(P)-The

MANY unskilled workers are also

the report says. Factories generally
are working at normal, while falr en-

For the two largest cities of the
state the report said:

the building industry, but the local
supply of tradeSmen is ample.
Employment for building trades
men showed substantial Improvement
in Minnesota during August and the
call for farm labor gave additional
employment to unskilled workers, &C
cording to the report.
Automobile assembly plants re-
sumed operations and added ap-
proximately 1000 people to payrolls.
while canning establishments regis
tered seasonal gains during August,
Mr.. Jones said in his report. !.
Construction operations in the larg-
er cities are expected to become more
active during the coming month, the
report states, while renewed activity
is looked for soon in flour milling.
Little change was recorded In iror
mining, but railroad repair shops
added slightly to forces employed.
Wheat harvesting and threshin(
