.PETAJA JOINS CORDOvA
 NEWSPAPER STAFF

John Petaja, king of the lino- typers and intertypers, whose ability at one of these machines is such that he can almot make 1t sit up and howl like a wild man from Powder River, left today, a passenger on the 5. s. Tana- na, for Cordova, where he joins the Cordova Times staff. PetaJa worked on the Gateway for all most five years and about two years for the Anchorage Times. He plans remaining with the Cordova paper for about a year after which he may go to the States, buy a car and travel over the continent until he gets tired Of it, then grab job as linol- type operator on a round-the- world steamer.
 But of course, he said, this IS his plan now; in the meantime a lot of water will flow under the bridge. So who can tell but what in a couple of years he might be an old married stiff with a half dozen kids. It's nice to plan, anyway.

HALL WILL BE WARM

Upon good authority it IS said that spectators at the College Seward basketball series, next Monday and Tuesday nights, will not shiver from cold thru out the sessions, for close at- tention to warmth will be paid by the s. A. Q. officials. Sitting at the past few games for hours, with overcoats on, and cold feet, when the hall might very easily have been nice and warm, is something number of fans do not propose to do again on ac- count of the risk of catching bad cold. The news that officials will personally be responsible for warming the hall up these com ing two evenings will be received gladly by the suffering public. It certainly will help the gate.

Jacobs coat OF many colors is best

who makes her child's clothes herself

and colors to be effective must always
be simple and harmonious. Suitability,
simplicity, comfort. and all the prac-
tical qualities which distinguish the
present-day well dressed woman's

which must be constantly considered

AGGRESSIVE LEADERSHIP NEEDED

United action by municipal and civic
bodies, in cooperation with State and
national authorities, provides the
logical approach to solution of the
growing problem of traffic congestion,
resulting in a vast annual toll of deaths
and injuries, according to a committee
OF the National Conference on Street
and Highway Safety.
The automobile accident problem, in
opinion OF Lewis A. DeBlois of Ma
tional Bureau of Casualty and Safe
ty Underwriters, has reached stage
where it cannot and will not solve it
self. There must be aggressive lead
ership among citizens and civic Or
carnations, adequately supporting and
cooperating with public and police
authorities, and campaigning for care
full driving, reduction of accidents, pro-
lection of children and aged persons
and cutting down the volume of traffic
law violations" he says.
Millions of motorists break traffic
laws which are unenforcible because
out of date This causes disregard Of
more important traffic regulations. As
a result, thousands upon thousands Of
people die annually in accidents that
are largely preventable.
We need modernized traffic laws fol
both pedestrians and automobiles
sanely and fairly enforced.

AMOS AND ANDY

It pays to amuse the public. Only
two years ago Amos and Andy, the
two characters known to every one
of the millions of radio listeners, made
their first broad cast in those char
acters. The are two white men, one
from Richmond, Virginia. who was
raised in negro environment. and the
other from Peoria, Illinois, who hap
pened to be an instructor of the
younger Richmond man at Durham,
North Carolina school. For several
years they were amateur entertainers.
Now they are paid $4,000 a year for
two daily kilograms of fifteen minutes
each. In addition to that they get
$500 a week for appearing on the
stage in person. The Richmond man
who is the nervous and high-voiced
Andy is only 81 years old, while the
Peoria man who acts the part of the
overlooking Amos is 40 years old.
They carefully write out each Of their
radio conversations and never give an
impromptu program. While their pre-
sent income is about twice the salary
of the President of the United States,
such fame is fleeting and this time
next year the tickle radio public may
have deserted Amos n Andy for some
other entertainers.

SMALL TOWN MERCHANTS WOULD
PROFIT

An adequate system of farm-to-
market roads in every state would not
only be of inestimable value to agri-
culture but to town and city merchants
as well.
Ease Of transportation causes more
people to travel. Better roads, stretch
ing into rural areas and making them
readily accessible all year round, would
attract tourists. They would bring
visitors to the smaller towns and
cities.
Furthermore, if farmers had con-
slant, all-year contact with surround
ing communities through the medium
of improved roads, they would bring
greater patronage to local merchants
Accessibility to markets would in
crease farm profits, thus giving the
farmer more money to spend for the
necessities and farm luxuries of life.
-to-marliet roads would be az
valuable to the town and city dweller
as to the farmer. They are a neces-
sary agency in furthering American
progress and prosperity.

about by American initiative and enter
prise, is responsible for our unrivaled
home conveniences, our record output
per factory worker with resulting high
wages and our modern factories with
healthful atmosphere.
American electrical development has
been democratic--no home is too small
or too large to receive the same
reasonably priced service.
The universal distribution of cleo
tricity in the United States has been
the result OF the desire of private
companies to furnish the masses with
every electrical convenience at low
cost instead of selling to a privileged
ew at high cost.

FEDERAL CENSUS BEGINS ON
APRIL

Work is progressing rapidly in the
Census Office. Most of the appoint
ments have been made and will be
announced within few days. The
supplies are all in and most of them
packed ready to be sent to the enumer-
atorS.
Mrs. Gilman calls the attention of
the citizens who expect to be absent
from their homes during the weeks
in which the population census will be
taken beginning April l to the absent
families schedules being passed out by
the census bureau. If the people will

for in the decennial enumeration Thus

Sample copies of the farm schedules,

forms, are being held at the bureau
office and will be sent upon request
to farmers throughout King and Sno-
homish counties, Mrs. Gilman stated
| The supervisor will also make an affort
to reach as many Of the agriculturists
as possible through the oranges. she
said. AS these blanks are filled with
questions it is the desire of the enum-
orators that the farmers study the
blanks and prepare the answers to the
questions before the actual census TAX
ing starts on April /.
For the enumerators who will work
on the decennial, farm unemployment

BEEFsTEAK AND ELECTRICITY

In 1914 the electric industry's aver
age revenue for each kilowatt-hour
of power was 2.6 cents. In 1929, it
was likewise &c cents
Yet, during the years between, the
wages of skilled labor rose 220 per
cent, unskilled labor about 225 per
cent, and the average price of cleo
trical apparatus, equipment and sup
lies about 2l5 per cent.
In other words, the average cost of
electric service to the consumer is no
greater than before the war, in spite
OF the fact that costs of labor, sup
plies and everything necessary to the
generation and distribution of power
have more than doubled.
The public does not fully appreciate
the return it gets on its money when
it buys electricity, because it is buying
a service instead of a visible COM
modify. A light is turned on and
later turned off and the user has
nothing left to show for the money
he has spent. He has had as definite
a return, however, as if he had bought
beefsteak and eaten it, or dozen
eggs and eaten them.
Measured in terms of efficiency,
usefulness or comfort we get more for
the electric dollar than almost any
other dollar we spend.
Think of modern home or business
without electricity. If one can
visualize that, then the value we get
for our money when we buy power
becomes wildly apparent.

DID YOU EVER STOP
TO THINK
By Edison r. Waite

That the home-o owned, home-opera
ed stores of your community are de-
pendable, for they are run by your
neighbors and your friends-citizens
who are putting what they make back
into the home community to make 1t
more prosperous, not sending it away
to help make some city bigger.
Their stocks are the best obtainable'
You should keep acquainted with
them; you should take pride In the
supremacy these business concerns
have been established. They think
quality first, then price.
No community can move ahead nor
can its people be prosperous when
home pride is lacking. People who
make money in the home community
and spend it elsewhere lack home
pride.
Citizens cannot act with effect I'M
less they act in concert. If they are
not linked together with home pride
and common interests, they and their
community are indeed in bad shape
Better business for your home mer-
chants and neighbors lays the foun-
dalton for a better and more depend
able community.
Your community will be able to meet
the keenest competition from other
localities only through consistent CO.
operation of its citizens to build better
local business.
It's always better to be safe than
sorry. The local merchants who adj
vertlse in this newspaper guarantee
their merchandise. Read their adver-
tisements before you buy.

All work on the building must be
completed by August Is, 1880.
This building is the result of very
careful study by the architect in order
to provide building which would meet
the requirements for a high school,
providing the necessary capacity and
at cost not to exceed the funds
available. To accomplish this 1t was
necessary to design building with
the maximum of instruction area. The
building, as planned, meets all the re-
quirements of the State Board OF
Education as to square feet of floor
space per pupil, volume of air per
pupil, glass area, etc.
The plan of the building permits
indefinite future expansion by the ad-
dition of wings on both the east ano
west ends of the main portion, as vel
as building second story over the
present one story portions.
In exterior appearance the building
| will be extremely pleasing with its
brick walls, tile roof and stone en-
trance. No useless ornament has
been applied, the architect having
gained his effects through the skillfu
use of simple materials. The build
! ing will be one of which you can bt
justly proud.

said that preservation of world
peace is as much the responsibility
of the United States today as it is
the responsibility of Britain,

1t was before this Good Will
Congress of the Alliance, next

cred his speech approving the
World Court but straddling the
issue of pledging the United States
against going to war.
In his phrase "Our basis of CO.

nations must be different from
that of the other great nations of
the world" he challenged the test
of Meighen's prophecy that all the
world would be lost in a new wal
unless the United States accepted
the same peace machinery as the
other powers accept.
Hoover left the peace organiza-
