 To eliminate Cole from the office of Auditor Lucas of Juneau is being groo1ned and to make certain Coles defeat Bragaw of Anchorage is be- ing urged to for that office. Back of the sev- era moves there seems to be the iron fist which has dominated hyphenate politics for tl3e past decade.

HOOVER SCATHINGLf EETOES
 VETERANS BILL

WASHINGTON, Feb. 27. (R- President Hoover vetoed the Veter- ans Loan BIl, and in a message to Congress called the legislation on this bill "unwisc from the stand point of the veterans themselves, and unwise from the standpoint of ian the people,"
 He said that the bill proposes Ia potential cash outlay of mil lion seven hundred thousand dollars and if all of the veterans apply the output would total above thirty three million dollars. and there is not that amount in the treasury which can be appropriated as cnn- plete cash outlay without the gov ernment either borrow v or get ting the money thro,ag1 .'tne sale of reserve funds and securities, therefore the president said. he is not in favor of the bill and conse- euently vetoed it.
 Administrator Hines made q state ment that he expected over one bill lion dollar to be drawn.
 Drought victims, and those of unemployment, said Hoover in lis veto m less sage are being treated un- fairly by this bill, which provides that the veterans can realize ac- tual cash from the government when tEey are in need. They will wan. slice of money too, and T am absolutely against the Federal Treasury being opened to allow for thousand purposes or more, when at the present time it should be considered as endea Yoring to bring about an increase in national bus- ness. to relieve the terrible condi- tion into which unemploymet has sunk"

WICKERsHAM ENROUTE EAST

SEATTLE. Feb. 26. (P)-Judge James Wickersham. delegate-elect. arrived here today on his way to Washington, D. C.. He declared the recent five hundred thousand dollar cut in the Alaska Railroad fund was killing the goose that layed the golden egg. People iu Alaska are already required to pay the highest rates anywhere under the American flag. and to increase them will be to put an unfair handi- cap on them and retard the devel- opn. ent of the Territory.
 'The territory of Alaska since 1867 has exported $1,762.968,496 in fish. fur and minerals and i'm i3@rted S907,S73,941 worth of pro ducts which makes the trade more than two and a half billion doll ars, a huge sum to be taken from wilderness by q few thousand pioneers. but this is mere trifle to the great stream of wealth that will flow into the United States if the development is unim paired"
 W1ckersham will have no duties as delegate until next December unless special session is called. but he intends to go to Washington in few weeks by way of Calif- ornia.

 REBUFF

WASHINGTON. Feb. 28, (R -- Judge Clark contended that the Eighteenth Amendment should have been submitted to state conventions for ratification, rather than to the state legislatures.
 Despite his conten tions and ir- regardless of popular or other opinion. the Supreme Court ruled that his views were untenable. and that the government had previous ly argued and disposed of the question.
 Attorneys against, argued that the amendment was invalid. and claimed, that in amendments grant ing new powers to the federal gov ornment over the people it must he submitted direct to the people Chief Justice Hughes withdrew from the case because he had not taken part in the briefing of the previous prosecution case, which he contended disqualified him.
