The following is the Prohibition .plank which was presented by the
 Republican Committee and adopt
 ed by the National Convention last
 week:
 The Republican Party tts al ways stood and stands today for obedience to and enforcement of l. the law as the very foundation Of ssorderly government and civiliza-

 and of the officers of the law is l-clear The law must be enforced as they find it enacted by the peo- ,ple. To these courses of action Eve pledge our nominees.
 The Republican Party is and al- zways has been the party of the rConstitution. Notification by non- sobservance by individuals or state saction threatens the stability of government.

Seattle TimeS.)

So unusual, so startling, that it seems to patches is one specification in the contract just awarded for construction of Indian service hos ptal at Unalaska. This specification requires that all timber used shall be Alaska timber, bought from Alaska dealers.
 Some persons may think, offhand that there's nothing unusual startling about that specified tion What it requires to be done seems so obvious ly the thing that should be done that most folks might imagine it is the thing that would be done without specific requirement. But most folks per- haps are unaware of how things are often done by the Federal Government, and particularly ignorant of how the Federal Government so often does things in Alaska.
 It is known for instance that Alaska has bodies of hgh-grade coal. Huge veins have been opened within comparatively easy distance of the Govern ment's Alaska railroad and the quality of the coal has met every test Yet the Government has shipped goodness knows how many thousand tons of coal to Alaska, some of it coming from far away Vir- ginia-and when that has been done it was without even the cloak of pretense of providing work for unemployment miners and seafarng
 Alaska has great stands of the finest timber; also sufficient mills and enough dealers to cut and handle all the lumber that Alaska needs, and much more besides. Yet it would have caused great surprise had the Government ordered Louisiana pine or Philippine mahogany shipped in for the Unaaska hospital That's what makes the defin- te specification in the hospital contract little out of the ordinary.

shall allow states to deal with the problem as their citizens may de- termine, but subject always to the power of the Federal government to protect those states where pro- hibition may exist and safeguard our citizens everywhere from the return of the saloon and attend ant abuses.
 Such an amendment should be properly submitted to the states by Congress, to be acted upon by state conventions called for that sole purpose, in accordance with the provisions of Article V. of the Con- stitution, and adequately safeguard ed so as to be truly representa- tive.
 Rejected Repeal Plank
 The text of the minority plank which was rejected by the Repub- lican National Convention. reads as follows:
 We recommend that the Congress of the United States immediately propose an amendment to the Fed eral Constitution repeating the Eighteenth Amendment thereto, to be submitted in conventions of the people of the several states called for that sole purpose in accord ance with Article V. of the Consti- tuition of the United States.
 Should the Eighteenth Amend ment be repealed, We pledge oul best efforts toward the enactment of such measures in the severa states as will actually promote temperance, effectively abolish the saloon, whether open or concealed and bring the liquor traffic itseIl under complete public supervision and control with revenues Dur. posely drawn from legalized sourc- es for the relief of the burdenee taxpayers.

CHAPTER 10. MURDER PERMITTED?

Jerry swung over lake and shore line in a series of immense con- centric circles, urging his powerful new ship up and up until her controls became loose and the pointer on the altimeter refused to rise on the dial.
 He. was happier, at this moment, that he had been since he could remember. The pulsing drone of the marvellous new 525 horse-pow- CT motor was sweeter music to his ears than the most exquisite har- monies of symphony.
 Emory, his fiery blue eyes danc- ing with anticipation, was study ing the magnificent panorama through navy binoculars, Never, since inheriting his fathers sub stantial fortune, had the mere abil- ity to spend freely given him such pleasure aS now.
 It seemed to him that never had he made as wise a purchase as the airplane. What better use of money than to buy adventure. He remembered the toast of the old gang in his squadron. Hard bitten, hard, eyed men rose and drank bottoms up to the words. Anywhere but here!"
 Stevens wiped an ugly little sub calibre machine gun with bit of oily cloth. He chewed rythmically, his faded old eyes looking at noth- ing in particular He had accept ed the airplane as he accepted eV- erything else, unquestioningly
 He saw no romance or adven- ture in the task before him ss
 If he had to live his life oyer again, he would have chosen a diff ferent job One which didn't call for always being ready to shoot first and hit the bulls eye on the first shot.
 There she isl" Emory's exulting voice cut through the blurred snarl of the motor The same amphib- ian. Over there!"
 Far below, hurtling over the cor rugated blue washboard that was the lake, appeared a tiny airplane, heading straight out from shore, Jerry carefully throttled the en- zine, turned and carefully jockeyed the monoplane into its position between the sun and the speeding plane fifteen thousand feet be- low.
 The kidnapers' ship slid down to the water, taxied to a tiny pin point of black in the midst of the glittering blue water, then took off again and headed back towards land. The monoplane, holding it's strategic position with ease, fol- lowed the amphibian over the roll ing hills which nestled close to the lake shore and across the flat pra- ires beyond the hills. Miles fol- lowed miles until at last those in the fleeing ship turned abruptly toward the south-southweSt.
 At an altitude of twenty thou sand feet the three in the mono plane watched the orderly lake front suburbs slide smoothly be- meath their silvery wing.
 T have a hunch,' Jerry said that we're in for long hop. That fellow down there is sticking to a course that's as straight as a plum line. We may as well settle down. Emory. take the stick while stretch my legs"

occurred to him that he was al- ready, perhaps a little mad. Well, it didn't matter. The others were mad, too.
 He wondered why their captors had allowed things to come to such a pass. Suave, impersonal house servants, ugly, impersonable guards. Excellent foods, wines and liquors. Well-chosen wardrobes at the dis posal of the guests who had come ill-prepared for an extended stay The rooms were comfortable enough in this rambling, one-story struc- ture which had so apparently been erected for the very purpose, of entertaining guests The staff must have been given explicit in- structions to allow the guests" to do as they chose, so long as no opportunity was given them to es- cape. Hamilton hazarded a guess that the guards would net even interfere in a fighter murder Well, he would soon know He looked at his watch. Only eight o'clock.
 Through the open windows came the buzzing sound of an arplane motor.

had in one of two ways: CD By the Legislatures of three -fourths of the several states; or (2) by conventions held in three -fourths of the several states; Congress is given power to determine the mode of ratification.
 Referendulns without constitu- tional sanction cannot furnish a decisive answer. Those who pro- pose them innocently are deluded by false hopes; those who propose them knowingly are deceiving the people
 A nationwide controversy over the Eighteenth Amendment now abstracts attention from the con- structive solution of many press ing national problems. The prin- ciple of national prohibition, as embodied in the amendment, was supported and opposed by mem bers of Congress of different poli- tical faiths and ratified by State Legislatures of different political majorities. It was not then and is not now a partisan political ques- ton.
 Opinions Differ
 Members of the Republican Party hold different opinion with respect to it and no public official or mem- Der of the party should be pledged or forced to choose between the party affiliations and his honest convictions upon this question,
 We do not favor a submission limited to the issue of retention or repeal For the American nation never in its history has gone back wards, and in this case the pro- gress which has been thus fai made must be preserved, while the evils must be eliminated
 We, therefore believe that the people should have an opportunity to pass upon proposed amend ment, the provision of which, while retaining in the Federal Govern ment power to preserve the gains already made in dealing with the evils inherent in the liquor traffic.

There Is a God Who Cares

In these days of strife crime and economic uncertainty, men and women on all sides ask if God really cares for us. As long is life is going well with us, we are apt to feel that we do not need God, but as soon as our plans are upset we even go as far as to question Gods workings. Yet through all times. prosperous of impoverished, Gods great plan is working and he offers us his gifts. the inspiration of divine beauty. the revelations of sup rene truth, the abiding joy of eternal love, the hope of everlast- ing life The theme of Gods care will dominate the sermon at the Federated Church tomorrow night Mrs. Leroy Sullivan will sing still.

 This is the third of three spe- cial articles on preparation Of the Thanksgiving dinner and the use of ''leftovers."

Even after the first proud ap- pearance of the noble Thanksgiving bird, there are several more lead ing roles for him to play. AL though "his positively last appear ance" is usually in turkey soup, the clever cook makes the most of his versatility and exhibits him in various guises.
 Turkey an gratin is simple and a very satisfactory way to use the crumbs and slivers of meat that accumulate on the platter as the result of carving. Make a medium white sauce. add chopped turkey and turn into buttered baking dish. Cover with coarse buttered crumbs and bake in moderate oven until the crumbs are brown. Serve from baking dish.
 Be sure not to over-cook turkey or fowl of any kind when reheat- ing it. Long cooking will make it stringy and tasteless. Any part of
