The Bismarck tribune., 1931-11-30

Boston, Nov. 30.-Boston's great
Symphony Hall. The g1eam Of white
shirt-fronts. The flash Of jewels.
A flutter Of programs. Then silence
Jesus Maria sanroma, famed pian-
ist, enters upon the stage. The pro-
gram reads "Sitges." The composer
Susan Godoy.
The pianist plays. It is q song
about beach-a beach in Spain
Softly the notes tell story Of waves
tapping against the sands, of bright
sunlight picking up the CLINT OF
stones, of lovers strolling along the
waters edge in the moonlight, Of
rollicking families at the seashore
for a day.
The music ends. Applause re-
sounds through the big hall-ap-
plause for the pianist, but above all
applause for the composition.
And few in the large audience
knew that 10-year-old, rly-headed
girl sitting in their midst was the
composer Of the music they had &C.
claimed.
Susan "Chiqui" Godoy is the daugh-
ter of Porto Rican father and an
American mother. She had describ-
ed in music, the Spanish beach or
which she had played for the pre-
vious two years.
She displayed an unusual apti.
tude for music when she was only
three years old, and already has 81,
compositions to her credit. Now she
Is busy writing others.

Trappers Object to

 The regulations of the Alaska Game Commission pertaining to the sealing of pelts are not working out satisfactorily in the KuskokWim district, in the opin- ion of c. F.

He is on his way to the States to visit relatives whom he has not seen since the year ol tbe Alaska Yukon exposition at Seattle, having resumed hi, tourney south this afternoon.
 The trouble with the sealing regulations, Hood explains, is that a representative of the Commission is not always with in reach when the trappers dc- sire to dispose of their catche,. ;. The furs are brought into the different trading centers ant left there as security for supplies pending the arrival of a game warden to do the sealing. r.: happened at one of these trading

 Senator Pittman stated that for nearly thirty years he has been trying to get back to Alas ka, and he recalled the day in 1901 that he left the Northland in "windjammer" It was all set for him to go to Alaska in 1914 with the late Franklin K.

 "The war;" said Senator Pitt man, twas responsible for drag ging people out of Alaska, and they haven't got back yet, and in order to properly populate w.: must interest tourists and sight, seers and then prospectors, and capital to visit Alaska in the next few years. I look fer 10O,- 900 people to visit Alaska in the next few years, and as tourists are getting tired of Europe, they are becoming interested in the Far North. This is evidenced by inquiries made at information bureaus, steamship and railroad offices and the Chambers of Commerce throughout the couo- try.
 Congress has to be educated into taking committees to Alas ka and laws will have to be lib- eralized to meet conditions ana amended so as to encourage rather than to prohibit immi- grafton. We have got to give more liberty with regard to tim Ter for paper pulp, the locating of mining claims and to do ev- erything possible to interest out- side capital in developing the Territory's resources.

 ITO a great extent we must encourage and foster the devel- opment of our north country as Canada has it's northern terri tory. Alaska can progress as much as Canada's Far North if given the same attention and encouragement.

December Being Worse Month

Eight more persons met +boiu
death on the highways of Delawaro
from automobile accidents d1rino
1880 than in 1929 according to tbe
report of the Delaware Safot,,
Council just issued. A total &c X
persons met their death in acci
dents in 1880 compared with 67 i
1929. In 1928, however tbora
were 79 persons killed in automo-
bile accidents in this State Dur
ing 1880, December proved H.
worst month for trial accident
There were IL fatalities during this
month. August, September and
April followed with 10 9 and !
deaths, respectively. The Lowest
number recorded for any one
month in 1880 was three fatalitiee
This was the number for each tbe
first three months Of the wear
There were no fatalities in Febrn-
ary of 1928. Walter Dent Smith
manager of the council. in his III
port stated that the high mortal
ity rate was due to the lack Of care
of cars by motorists. He stated
that the accidents are for the mos
part avoidable. In only few i'll
stances were the circumstance
such that the accidents could ~
prevented. These were apparently
caused as result Of natural ele-
ments, such as weather. "StrictIv
speaking, the human factors Of
carelessness, inattention. faulty
mechanism and a dozen and one
other things can never be excluded
as a contributory cause in anv of
these accidents" continued Mr.
Smith. "They are all relative
fluttuating in intensity with regard
to the circumstances faced by the
motorists in each case, but the ul-
innate outcome in so many instan-
ces is the result of whether he has
schooled himself in principles of
safety" Mr.. Smith is optimistic
that the coming year would Wit
ness a decided drop in the fatality
record for Delaware. Attributable
