There is much evidence that the real or ganizer of the League is inter- ested in a corporation that re- ceived nearly $7OO,OOO recently from the Government-a gift! Is his desire for economy sincere9

Of the other members of the League, one is forced to struggle along on 9 mere $6,000 a year retirement pay" One of his colleagues, however, is allowed about $2r,OO0 annually to live on, probably be- cause he has an office in the Ma tional capital! If these we'll fed gentlemen are deeply con- cerned over high taxes, would it not be fair if they accepted a lice slash in retirement pay"? Probably disabled enlisted man is better able to lose from SIP to $40 monthly!

ty, serving four years from 1884 In 1894 he was city attorney for Tacoma Tn 1898 he served a term in the Washington house of representatives. Next, he came to Alaska. In addition to other elective posts, he was sent from the Territory as delegate to the national convention in 1928.
 Mason For 51 Years
 He is a life member of the Asiatic Society of Japan. He be- lcngs also to the American An thropological Association, the A. merican Pathological Society of New York, the Linguistic Society of America-of which he is one of the founders. Tn addition to those organizations, MT. Wick ersham is a life member of the Masonic lodge, and this year marks the f1fty-firSt of his mem bership in that organization. He belongs as we'll to the Moose, the Pioneers of Alaska, and the Sons Of the American Revolution. He is, as all Alaska knows, a repub- lican.
 His studies and his long serv- ice for the Territory make Dele gate Wickersham perhaps the best informed of all on territor- iai affairs and history. He likes Alaska and boosts Alaska. He fights, and always has, for what he thinks right. He is a friend of the Alaskan native, and all ways has been anxious to see that the Indian gets fair dealing.

 Ex-Service Boys
 By James R. Little
By James R. Little

Judging by various articles that have appeared in several magazines it seems that a fight will be launched at the next Ses- sion of Congress to deprive thou sands of World War veterans of their small monthly income The object of attack is the disability allowance act, passed by Con- gress in 1880, granting from SIP to $40 monthly to veterans un- able to prove their disabilities are service e-connected. Obvious ly, it is often very difficult to prove that the disability is ac- tually Service-connected. The above mentioned act needs TO derense as it's subsequent work ings have wholly justified it. But Our ex-cervice men are entitled to a square deal. The writer is unaffected by any of the pro- posed changes in veteran legis- lation but as an American is deeply interested in the welfare Of the eX-service men. The man who sat at the head of the first meeting of the National Econo- my League was retired from the navy early in his career for phys lcal disability and draws ap- proximately $5,OOO a year from the Government. It is not 3 pension" or a disability al- loWance," of course that he re-

Selling Movement Dries Up in
, Late Afternoon and Bulls
Take Charge

New York, Aug. 26.-(P)-An abrupt
reversal sent the stock market up
swiftly In the late trading Friday, at
ter a slow decline had carried many
issues off to points. Some of the
leaders registered extreme gains of 2
to more than points in the late trad
ing, although there was slight sag just
just before the close. The late tone
was strong. Transfers Appropriated
100000 shares.
The selling, in part continuation
of the movement late yesterday, dried
up in the afternoon, which encour-
aged a fresh bull drive. The Inter-
borough rapid transit receivership had
only a temporarily dampening effect
upon sentiment, and sveral quarters
were optimistic over the probable re-
suits of the economic conference IN
Washington.
The early selling embraced virtually
all groups but rails were conspicuously
heavy, presumably rejecting the set
back in railroad bonds.
