OUR BROTHER'S KEEPER
clos Angeles Times)

This period through which the world
is struggling is more than an eco
nomic crisis. 1t involves more than
study of strategic plans to ambus-
cade the dollars which fled.
Humanity itself is on trial. The
civilization which we have evolved Is
undergoing the supreme test.
If there is such thing as brother
hood among men, now is the; time to
show it. 1
Drunk with wealth, we have strayed
long way from the fundamental
and eternal truth. We have been liv-
ing in a house stuck upon golden
stills. And it has crashed.
In our agony and suffering we have
discovered that Jesus Christ meant
what he said. The Golden Rule was
not a pleasant homily intended for
reward-of-merit cards with silk fringe
on the edges and diamond dust shin
ing on the snow scenes. 1t was a
simple statement of the eternal law,
the same law that keeps the stars
in the skies and the world turning
on its axis. sf-F
We speak of breaking the law and
commandments. You can break them;
but they break you. s'Love one an
other" was more than an ,admonition
to light the path of virtue. It was
the statement of an eternal principle

have three reasons for asserting
the game and fish department have
no constitutional jurisdiction of game
i'll this district:
First, because they never acquired
it in constitutional manner. The
last clause of the fifth amendment
reads, nor shall private property be
taken for public use without proper
compensation" This land was sold
to farmers, equipped with wild game
and no reservation of wild game was
placed in the title. Second, because
they have no fenced state lands to
keep game on and they have no more
large than we have. Third. they re-
fuse to pay crop damage or traffic
damage to vehicle or person. When
the life of deer is placed higher
than the life of a citizen by our legis-
lature, American citizenship is indeed
sacred. They even confiscate meat
and sell it to raise funds to hire more
wardens to run us out of this country.
Our district has been declared agri-
cultural by our state and sold as such
and it is being taxed as such. Yet
for three or four years the state has
been spending more money on fire
wardens and equipment in our town to
help destroy the greatest natural
blessing to the land clearer-fire-
than it has taken to maintain our
school, town, and our county. 1t has
placed a premium on Incidence and
penalized thrift.
Why didn't our officials postpone
creasing long list of managers. If we
have thousands of citizens in our
state incapable of making a living
why not take up donations among
farmers and run soup kitchen in
stead of making managers and bosses
at fat salaries out of them?
In the nineties tramps became so
bad in certain parts of Iowa, that they
went to the housewives, when the men
were away, and ordered sumptuous
meals and played roles of kings in
the home. Vigilance committees
were formed and they soon learned to
hit the back door or keep moving.
Farmers. let's get together and send
this army of job seekers to the back
door instead of to st. Paul.
The wisest man that ever lived said:
Surely oppression maketh the wise
man mad and the living will lay it to
his heart. If things don't change they
better tear down the statue of liberty
and substitute a bust of Nero.

upon which all law, all philosophy,
all business, all ethics, all civiliza-
ton rests. Like all the doctrines left
by the Christ, this was the sublimity
of common sense-the finality of prac-
ticality-the only sure foundation upon
which civilization can rest.
During these money-glutted years
we have tried each to go our own way
alone. Years of greed and money
lust have ended with this terrible
lesson: That wealth evaporates and
leaves men stark and with naked
hearts.
1t is for us to see that this terrible
rebuke has not been in vain. For
us to see that we rebuild the fallen
structure on the rock of brotherhood.
This winter will be a period that
calls for all men to have fortitude,
strength and sympathy. 1t is, for
once, clear to the dullest mind that
we can only help ourselves by help
ing others:
Out of this period of REIMBURSEMENT
we can regain our souls. 1t can be
a better world because of this period
of hunger and sorrow; stronger
America and sounder civilization if
it brings to us a realization we are
given the privilege of being our broth
er's keeper.
The remedy for our financial crisis
lies not in laws, federal commissions,
in panacea or financial errors.
The sound and practical answer
was told two thousand years ago in a
sermon spoken on a mountain in
Palestine.

HOW RUMORS CAUSE DISASTER
-.-s (Red Wing Eagle) ~

A bank at Rochester was forced to
close its doors because of a run"
brought on by a foolish rumor. The
bank may reopen and it may not. In
all events many depositors are going
to be greatly inconvenienced because
closing means liquidation of assets
and payments to depositors on a pro
rata basis. There was absolutely no
reason for the run" A wild goose
telephone rumor started it. The bank
was in perfectly sound condition and
under normal business conditions was
as safe place as any for depositors'
money.
Depositors themselves endanger
their own savings when they listen
to wild rumors and idulge in runs
on banks. They endanger the business
and industry of their own community.
Under the laws of the state a bank
is under constant scrutiny of inspec-
tors. Its funds are protected from
fraudulent manipulation and they buy
insurance and bonds. When a bank
closes under lawful procedure it is
done with the deposftors' interests at
heart. But when forced to close by
run" there is a wreckage and loss
that cannot be escaped. Depositors
can do more to preserve the integrity
of their own institutions, their BUSH
hess houses and their industries
yes. and their savings, toby dis
playing confidence in their banks when
a panicky rumor gets afloat than by
becoming party to their wrecking by
joining in senseless run

The Mile Laos Messenger: Won't
Uncle Andrew please tell us why, If
the credit of the United States is good
for billion dollars worth of three per
cent bonds, it is not good for billion
dollars in nice crisp treasury notes,
bearing no interest at all? Why does
the government have to assure a big
profit to the big bankers when we
have a deficit?

3 BASKETBALL
 GAMES WILL BE PLAYED TONIGHT
Douglas Bremen, P u blie Roads and High School
 Are Scheduled

What promises to be three inter- esting games of basketball will be played this evening in the gym nasium of the Juneau high school. The contesting teams will be the Juneau high school against the Douglas Fire Department, the Ju- neau Alumni against the Bureau of Public Roads and the Juneau high school Freshmen against the Eighth Grade of the Juneau ele- mentary school.
 Tonight's appearance of the Douglas Bremen will be their first this season on this side of Gasti- neau Channel. The Island smoke eaters have already been defeated by the Douglas high school, tradi- tional rival of the Junaeu high school.
 Coaches Can Conjecture
 The outcome of the game this evening will enable the coaches of the two high schools to check the showings of their teams against the Island firemen, and, from the two sets of scores, conclusions can be drawn as to the strength of the scholastic organizations when pit ted against each other. Not few basketball enthusiasts favor the Juneau high school team to win tonight's battle against the Doug las smoke-eaters by at least three baskets.
 The Juneau students are anxious for victory They have been in- vited to participate in basketball tournament at Chilkoot Barracks Action on the invitation has not yet been taken by the sch pol authorities. The boys want to make the trip, and they think their chances of being allowed to do so will be enhanced by decisive tri- umph over the visiting Bremen.
 Keen Interest Manifested
 By many the game between the Juneau Alumni and the Bureau of Public Roads is looked forward to with great interest. These two teams will be members of the Cas- tinau Channel Independent Bas- ketball League, organization of which is now under way. The Alumni has players that have worked together for two or three seasons, and they have been par ticipants in competitive games two or three times this fall. They are expected to defeat the Bureau athletes, but the latter may prove to be dark horse" surprises. The contest between the Juneau high school Freshmen, and the Eighth Graders vii lbe the curtain raiser. These aggregations have met twice this season, and are closely matched. In their first encounter the Eighth Graders beat the Freshmen In their second, the Freshmen snatched victory in the last quarter by single point
 Play tonight will begin promptly at 7:15 o'clock.
