face value of the adjuster service
certificates. A majority of the
State delegations to the approach
ing American Legion convention
in Detroit have been instructed to
work for the expression of a SIM
liar demand at that gathering. If
the Legion falls into line with the
Veterans of Foreign Wars, the
voice of the organized ex-service
men will be practically unanimous
in urging an enterprise calling for
an outlay of $2,363,0O0, 900.
A recent survey of the attitude
which the American Legion is TAX
| ing toward the proposed raid on
the Treasury in the name of the
ex-service man shows clearly
enough that the thing is getting
beyond the mere talking stage.
Eleven of the Legion's state or
ganizations have already instruc-
ted their delegates to the forth
coming national convention to sup
port the demand for cashing the
adjusted compensation certificates,
as against only two which have
instructed their delegates to op-
pose it. In only ten other state
organizations are there evidences
of any considered opposition to the
scheme, and it seems quite pos
sible that the Legion may formal
ly go on record as demanding this
staggering handout, which the
country cannot afford and for
which there is no logical reason
whatever except that the benefic-
iaries would presumably like to
have it.
Despite the obvious popularity
of Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt
as Presidential possibility,
friends of Alfred E. Smith are in
sistent that he still holds either
the power to veto Mr.. Roosevelt's
nomination, under the thirds
! majority rule of the Democratic
National Convention, or to pro-
long the choice to a point where
he can dictate to the party. Ac-
cording to numerous letters which
Mr.. Smiths close advisers have
received, voters in strong Smith
states in which Mr. Roosevelt's S
| friends are claiming support, are
merely waiting for him to indicate
that he would like to have their
delegations. The margin admit
tedly is narrow. The Smith peo-
pie feel that they have a potential
| 480 non-Roosevelt votes, but as
yet not wholly pro-Smith votes
upon which it might be possible to
draw for the 367 votes constitut-
ing a one-third blocking minority
in the convention. ~
In a recently copyrighted story
published in the New York Even
ing Post it was stated that former
lGovernor Alfred E. Smith of New
| York will not be candidate for
| the Democratic presidential nom
ination in 1882 and will not allow
his name to go before the Demo-
cratic Convention. 1t was declar-
ed that anti-Roosevelt forces are
concentrating on Newton D. Bak
er, Secretary of War in the Will
son administration, and that it is
probable that Bakers speech be-
fore the American Legion in De-
troit shortly will mark the begin
ming of his candidacy. 1t was
further predicted that Smith will
make a fight in the Democratic
National Convention for a straight
lout wet plank.

With the passing Of Labor Day,
Washington reached the official
end of another vacation season
and the Capital is preparing SER
iously for the opening of its busy
seasons, autumn and winter. This
fall and winter are likely to see
Washington buster than it has
been since the tense days of the
postwar period. All officials who
have been away on vacations are
back at their desks.
The problems of the coming
winter are certain to be great.
But already, we think, enough has
become known to make it certain
that they are to be met in the old
fashioned American way and to
give every confidence that they
will be solved successfully. That
is to say, the bulk of unemploy-
ment is to be relieved not by the
huge Federal grants distributed
inefficiently through a new army
of Federal bureaucrats, but by the
localities the states, the counties,
the cities, the villages-aiding
their needy in the traditional
ways. Congress may storm, the
radicals will threaten, but it seems
safe to hope confidently that no
alien panacea will replace the
neighborhood method which every
American knows and understands
and which is bound to prevent
hunger with far more Gel tainty
than could any bureau at Wash
ington. At Washington stands a
government of limited and desig-
mated powers. To the states Is
reserved every local responsible
ity.
President Hoover put at 100000
the number Of men who, it is esti-
mated, will be directly and indi-
rectly employed on Federal con-
struction work by January l, in
making public a report on the pro-
gress of the governments buiia-
ing program in aid of unemploy-
ment. The data he submitted to
the country showed that 121 build
ings had been completed by Au-
gust 81 at a cost of $39, 1869, ,569,
while 281 buildings under contract,
in whole or in part, called for the
expenditure Of $1S1, ,393,100. Other
authorized construction, including
sites, with plans now being drawn,
brought the total specific authori-
cations as Of August 81, to $780,
584,192.
A moratorium on politics during
the forth coming Congress in an
effort to cut $2,000,000,00O from
the national budget was proposed
by Representative Beck, of Phila-
delphia. Mr.. Beck expressed the
strongest opposition to any econ
omy program which singled out
the army and navy as the sole
source of economies. Instead, he
would apply the pruning knife to
some of the recently created bur-
eaus, which he declared, "honey-
comb our departments and never
would be missed" Likewise, he
is unalterably opposed to any in
crease in taxation, except a tax
upon beer and light wines, which
he believes should be legalized
without delay.

The National Comedy

An interesting and almost comic situation in Congress is commented on by Wm. L. Daily, Washington representa-
 i've of the National Editorial Association, in a recent news letter. It concerns control of the new Congress, which seems within reach of either of the two parties that wants it.
 Strangely enough, according to MT. Daly, neither party ap- pears to want control and its accompanying responsibilities. If the Republicans organize the new Senate and House, a coalition of Democrats and h. surgent Republicans can thwart their legislative plans, as has been demonstrated in certain recent instances. If the Democrats gain control, a Re- publican president can easily defeat any legislation not to his liking through veto powers.
 So whatever happens, it is very likely that the next Con- giess will be rather a futile body, incapable of any accom- plshments upon which to ap- peal to the country in 1882. And neither party seems de- sirous of taking the responsi- bility of leadership when pros poets of making political cap- ital seem so remote.
 Although the Republican radicals made a lot of noise during the session just closed, they did not get far with their socialistic program. In fact it IS quite evident that the coun- try at large is getting out of patience with their visionary

Four Miles A Minute

A new automobile record was made on the Daytona beach few days ago, when Captain Malcolm Campbell drove his racing car at the un. precented speed of 246 miles an hour, nearly fifteen miles an hour faster than the former worlds record held by the late Captain Segrave.
 While the ability to travel at this terrific speed IS of little practical value in itself, 1t does serve to illustrate the great advances made by auto mobile engineers in recent years. This new record of more than four miles a minute is almost within haling distance of the best airplane speed, which is a little in excess of

schemes and the obstructive tactics they have adopted in an effort to put them through.
 Seldom, if ever in the history of the country have national politics been in more chaotic condition, and leaders of the various groups are all at sea with respect to the outcome. Therefore we may see unusual and even frantic effort at buck passing at Washington during the next few months. And buck-passing is an indoor sport at which politicians are past masters.
 Their antics in this line be- tween now and the next pres idential election will assume the aspect of a national com- edy.

The Big Silver Snowfall
 (From Mining Truth

The restoration of silver is not urged on behalf of the sill yer producers, but on behalf of humanity. The reopening of silver mines in the west is purely incidental result. Re store silver, and half the world will win back it's buying pow CT. Refuse the remonetization of silver, and bolshevism will capture the suffering millions of Asia, South America and Eastern Europe. The welfare of Western agriculture and manufacturing depends on for eign markets. Only by restor- ing the money value of silver can these markets be opened again.
 With silver touching new low levels, prices which many thought impossible" a year ago, there is reason to be- lieve that the campaign for re- monetization will grow rapidly from now on. "The darkest hour is just before the dawn" The silver snowball may soon become an avalanche.

TEN YEARS OR so AGO From the Hyder Alaska Miner March g, 1921.

Walter Blanton and R. C. Jeffrey have dissolved partner ship, the former taking over the Silver Grill and the latter continuing to conduct the cigar store. Walter intends building a private dining room at the rear of the grill for dinner parties.
 Because of the Salmon valley road becoming so soft that for several days neither horses nor tractor could pass over it, the ore shipment for the Prince Albert to take out this week from Premier mine amounts to only about 200 tons.
 John Stenbraten, better known all over the north as Stampede John," is back in camp after a trip to the Pas mining district.
 A son was born Tuesday morning, March l, to MT. and Mrs. J. P. Scarlett of Stewart, where MT. Scarlett is provin- cial constable.
 John Hovland has instituted a legal action in the commits. sioner's court against the AL gunican Development Com pany, Limited, to recover the sum of $962.00 with interest.
 Fresh eggs were 60 cents a dozen at Rozie's.
 A report of the financial condition of the Salmon River Banking Go. on March 1, showed total resources of $34,- 870.12 and individual savings deposits of $16,739.66.
 The Hyder Lumber Go. are preparing for a busy summer and have made extensive im- provements to their mill. There is a steady demand for lumber at the present time.
 R. L. Clothier is engaged in moving his assay office from Hyder to Stewart.
 P. R. Backus is checking up on the tram survey which he recently made for the Premier.
 A Premier caterpillar tract or driven by William West wood plunged from the end of the Stewart dock into Is feet of water while hauling down a load of Premier ore.
 Ice on the down hill road 'eading onto the dock caused he loaded trailers to slide and shove the tractor over the end of the dock before their mo- mentum could be checked. Westwood jumped to the dock in time but his helper, Max Behrman, was forced to jump from a height of 30 feet into he water to escape from the falling machine. He was picked ID by Paul Meger in a row boat, after Tom Powers, dock foreman, slid down a pile and fastened a rope around him to keep him afloat until help came. But for the fact that hey had removed the hood from the tractor and could jump freely, both Behrman md Westwood would probab- ly have lost their lives.

The skill and daring of those who perform these extraordin- ary feats of speed cannot fail to excite admiration, but con- servative folks will have but little desire to emulate them. Most people are satisfied to travel slower, with the prob ability of travelling longer.

HIGHER FEDERAL
TAXES DECREED BY
ADMINIST
Secretary Mellon Putting
Finishing Touches To
Next Tax Plan; May In
clude Tax On Luxuries
And Necessities.

Washington.-Federal taxes must
be increased, Secretary of Treasury
Andrew w. Mellon and administra-
ton congressional leaders announced
this week.
The administrators tax plan has
been drafted by the, treasury for sub
mission to President Hoover this
week.
Selective sales or excise taxes on
luxuries and possibly some necessities,
and an increase in income and in
heritance taxes, are understood to be
principal features of the administra-
ton plan.
Mellon favors reducing the in
come tax exemptions to bring in more
of the %'little fellows but there is
doubt that such a proposal would gain
much support in congress.
A gift tax to catch large property
transfers which not avoid the in
heritance az was reorted gaining
favor among democratic and indepen-
dent congressman.
