EMPLOYMENT RELIEF
FUND

The plan contemplates that the
revenue from these measures shall
be placed in two funds known as
the Employment Fund" and the
Emergency Relief Fund" The
employment fund to be used for
providing employment on public
works for those now unemployed,
and the relief fund to be apoprtion-
ed to the counties in proportion to
their needs and distributed in the
same manner as the poor fund to
those In distress who cannot be
aided by the employment fund.
When the present crisis has pass

legislature, shall be set aside ir

THOUSANDS FACINGG
STARVATION

With thousands of our people
facing the certainty of suffering
and the probability of starvation,
we must not falter or hesitate thru
the fear of working a slight finan-
'cial hardship upon a few corpora
tons, the controlling interest Of
whose stock is held largely outside
the state, nor can we deem it a
hardship for these corporations to
contribute a fraction of the wealth
which they have taken from the
people of the state toward reliev-
ing the suffering of the people OF
this commonwealth who have made
these monstrous profits possible.

SPECIAL SESSION
URGED

In conclusion wish to say for
the benefit of those papers that
have expressed the opinion that no
plan has been proposed whereby a
special session could accomplish
anything, that a plan is now offer
ed. Those who object to this pro-
posal may accept this plan, or they
may offer a better one. but unless
they do something they may not
consistently claim that nothing can
be accomplished by a special ses-
sion of the legislative assembly.
Respectfully,

Reduce
the Acid

DICK stomachs, sour stomachs and
indigestion usually mean excess
acid. The stomach nerves are over
stimulated. Too much acid makes the
stomach and intestines sour
Alkali kills acid instantly. The best
form is Phillips Milk of Magnesia; one
harmless. tasteless dose neutralizes
many times its volume in acid. For so
years the standard with physicians
everywhere.
Take a spoonful in water and your
unhappy condition will probably end
in five minutes. Then you will always
know what TO do. Crude and harmful
methods will never appeal to you. Go
prove this for your own sake. 1t may
awe a great many d~isagreeable hours.
Get the genuine Phillips Milk Of
Magnesia, the kind physicians have
prescribed for so yean

THAT COLD RECEPTION.

The decision of Judge William Clark in which the Eighteenth Amendment to the Constitution was declared invalid. has met with that cold reception" which its author indicated in the document might be its fate in the United States Supreme Court The highest court in the nation in reversing Judge Clark did so with vengeance--its ruling that the prohbitory amendment is constitutional being un- animous. Generally this outcome of the famous case was regarded as, certain from the very first Judge Clark himself, probably had no confidence that he would be sustained and commentators on it lay and legalwere almost unit in predicting the New Jersey Justice would be overruled
 The decision of the Supreme Court does not change the status Of Prohibition. Judge Clarks rul- ing was binding only in his own jurisdiction and in it liquor prosecutions under the national statutes have been held in abeyance pending the final re- view of the case
 Opponents to constitutional Prohibition did not make the mistake of ceasing their active campaign to bring about its repeal because of the New Jersey case. They have pressed their efforts and as re- suit there was not let III, in the swing public ment for change. The Supreme Courts action merely makes it definite that the Amendment can not be overturned by attacking its constitutionality in the courts However, the court of last resort lies in public opinion expressed at the ballot boxes And it will not be great while before it is ex- pressed so decisively against the Prohibition section that it will be wiped off in its entirety so that the country can again turn back to the paths leading to real temperance
The Daily Alaska empire., 1931-03-02

political organizations has served notice the Democrats not to nominate Wet candidate in 1892 and not to adopt platform asking the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment
 The fact that it confines it's threats of ?eprsal to the Democratic party is at least peculiar if not significant Why does it direct it's attention solely to the party? Why not include the Republican party also? Can it be that it has been convincingy assured that the 1892 standard bearer and national platform of that organization will be Dry? Is tt assured that the Republicans will not be tempted by the wave of nt-Prohibition sentiment that nas inundated the East and parts of the Midwest and is in evidence throughout the country? If it has not what is to be said of it's exclusion of that party from it's broadsides?
 The Methodist Board, of course, is privileged to express it's convictions about Prohibition. The doctrine of free speech extends to it fully to any other organization or individual But it exer- ciSes that right in unique in this instance. It runs a serious risk of being charged with parti sanshp and petty persecution in addressing itself to the Democrats and ignoring the Republicans who face the same temptation if in fact not greater to stray from the desert wastes of the Dry domain.

Bird Sanctuaries in Canada.
(NeW York Times.)

Conservation of wild birds in Canada was assum- ed by the Government there when there was still a good deal of unspoiled wilderness and few species were threatened with extinction. One naturalist IS well known from coast to coast for his preserve where wild geese and ducks fed and protected. In the Dominion there more than forty bird Sanctuaries.
 On the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence there is chain of ten islands where sea birds breed without molestaton. census taken in 1880 showed their number to be 100836 of sixteen diff ferent species. This did not include young birds matched during that year. The increase since 1925 was estimated at l9 per cent.
 The national parks branch of the Department of the Interior is in charge of the work Constant vigilance is necessary to keep the sanctuares in violate. The birds to realize that the sanc- tuaries belong to them and resent attempts to land on the shores Photographers find it difficult to snap the wheeling flocks swarmning around their heads with hoarse cries.

Homo Americanus.
(New York World.)

Europe continues to invent names for us Only a short time ago Italian said were Homo Amercanus" a kind of who loves work for works sake; and Frenchman says we are the "social-charitabe type" whose kindli- ness and generosity real, even though at first they slightly mechanical Well, how much we like work, how kindly are, and how generous, are difficult questions; like to think possess these virtues in abundance and yet it is risky to assume that nation has larger share of them than another Nevertheless, is gratifying to note that Europe is waking up to the fact that are Americans, and not Europeans in disguise.
 For long time it could not get this through its head The Englshman, the Italian, the Ger man, or the Pole, here for a visit and hearing his native tongue everywhere concluded that were really his compatriots under another label and this conclusion led to complications. He judged not by what it when did what we did but by what it would have meant if he did it. Seeing us at various trades, he thought what money grubber he would be if he engaged in them and decided that we were animated by miserly greed for the dollar. Seeing without waistcoats in summer, he recalled how shocking it would be if he dressed thus back home, and decided must be a nation of barbarians. Seeing through lunch he declared we did not know the value of leisure
 Now, however, he is beginning to find out that we spend our money freely make it, so there must be a catch in the miser idea where. And he notices that American summers are hot, making thet exposed shirt necessity. And he sees that we quit work at night sooner than he does, so th3t we must have something to do with our leisqre In other words he is finding out that this is another country. It is probably excellent thing for international good will.

Chicago and Milwaukee Crime.
(New York World.)


 By speaking critically of Chicago as a crime ridden community, Mayor Hoan of Milwaukee has put himself in class with King George Mayor Big Bill Thompson tells MT. Hoan that in future it will be well for him to tend to his business about Chicago crime. When you get through scrubbing Milwaukee's doorstep" says Mayor Big Bill you will have less time to criticize Chicagos conditions
 Mayor Thompson's rhetoric is better than his logic Milwaukees doorstep is already well scrubbed For years it's homicide rate has been away below not that Of Chicago alone but that of the average American city, simply because the Milwaukee author ities will not allow the murdering gangsters that nfest other cities to operate The proof of the pud ding is in the eating In 1929 the latest figures compiled by the Spectator the insurance journal shows Chicagos homicide rate per 100000 of popu- lation to be l27, while that of Milwaukee was only !3l Previous years showed similar contrasts There is nothing secret about Milwaukee's method of maintaining low percentage of homicide An energetic enforcement of the law is all that has been found necessary. That policy might be recom- mended to MT. Thompson for use at home and to other and greater cities
