TURN ID COLD TRAILS ID SOLVE CASE
 0F BABY KIDNAPPING

HOPEWELL, N. J., Mar. 16. (P)-- The police delved into almost for gotten cases of kidnappingS in an effort to solve the Lindbergh baby kidnapping case.
 Frank Berg, Jr., who was arrest ed because he was accused of att tempting to kidnap Max Phillips, collar maker, seven years ago, was exonerated by the police after they had questioned him about certain phases of the abduction.
 The police then turned their at tention to Schenectady and New York Kidnapping case of nine years ago when scientists son was ab- ducted. The police have arrested Stanley Crandall, a paroled con- vict, who figured in that case, for questioning.
 With the baby now missing for two weeks, official circles admitted police still have made no progress on the case. William Gleason of Cliffside, reportedly having po- lice record, and Mrs. Danusek were questioned at length by Jersey City police, and it was reported that Betty Cow, Lindbergh's nursemaid, was taken to Jersey City to aid in investigation. Four men associated with Gleason are being sought by police.
 A Welfare Island convict is un- derstood to have revealed a kidnap plot last year which failed because the criminals lost nerve. The Jer-- sey City investigation is part of a new nationwide checkup of every police character known to have been involved in kidnappings.

of your actions, we might sup port you in your desire to es- tablish more reservations in Alaska.
 We have Indian reservations, fishery reservations, forest re- servations, game bird reserva- tions, mineral reservations land reservations-inhabitions and prohibitions to satisfy the most bureaucratic proponent. Instead of adding to the damned nui- sance, we want freedom from them. Your idea of reServating the several islands in Alaska is ali wet. Those officials favorirg 1t never publish their names . they are afraid to-but they permit their official position to speak for them-providing you do not mention their position But as far as my people are con- ccrned, we want no further pro- lection for the bear or reserva- tions either.

hETCHIKAN AND HOME RULE

The Ketchikan Chronicle takes all home rule advocates to task in a strong editorial pub lished recently and in which 1t seeks to show that Alaska s claim for emancipation from bureaucratic rule is paradoxical, citing as the foundation for its viewpoint the protest against
 the sale of the Alaska cable and
 communication service. Upon
 this incident the Chronicle seeks to rear up the premise that it is better for the Territory to go q long in the guise of subjects of bureaucracy than to endeavor
 to manage it's own affairs. Which is a polite way of saying that Alaska does not boast men cap able of dealing with those lntl- mate questions that come into contact with ones daily activi- ties.
 One can agree with the Chro- ricle that protesting against the sale of the cable might giae the impression that Alaska was not willing to assume the burden of self-government, provided the
 question was predicted solely on
 the cable item. But it resorts to sophistry when it seeks to prove the case by an exceptional in-
 cldent.
 It would be interesting to know what the Chronicle thinks about the bureaucratic action
 which demands that all island fur farmers pay up $25O of va cate the islands. Does 1t believe that Alaskans would order such thing if the administration of such things was reposed in the Territory instead of the Depart ment of Agriculture?- Seward Gateway.

SAVING MONEY

The national administration wishes to economize on govern- mental expenses. We humbly suggest that it begin by doing away with the Bureau of Fish cries and letting the states and territories handle those affairs themselves. Certainly they would do no worse than the Bureau has in the past years of it's ad- ministration and no one can deny that abolition of the bu- reau would be a big saving to the government.

REPUBLICAN ASSET
A writer for the Washington

A writer for the Washington Post one of MT. Hoover $ IT ost consistent supporters says: George Moses and Jim" Watson are both credited with saying that the Democrats are the Republican party's biggest asset. It is a fact that the Demo- crats can be counted upon to do their best to throw the cleo tion to the Republicans. When things look gloomiest to the Re- publicans, the Democrats will almost certainly go to their rescue. They will do by fighting among themselves, or by the most incredible blunders; or, in cases of extreme necessity, when Republicans need help most, by cimmitting political hara kari"
 It is being stated that Presi- dent Hoover's stock did some skyrocketing recently because oi the appointment of Judge Car dozo to the Supreme Bench ' but those Senate Democrats whc voted against the relief for the unemployed did more to rocket Eoover's chances than anything else.

Who Wants More
 Reservations

National Association of Wild Life
 COnsefvationists, Inc,
 New York, New York
 My dear Sir:
 have your lengthy letter with
 printed circulars relating to
 protection of the Alaska brown
 bear and the establishment of further reserved areas for the protection of these animals. Why does not your organiza- tion spend it's time doing some thing really constructive for the benefit of the Territory instead
 Of wasting it's time protecting a few brown bear. Aside from be- ling a biological specimen can you point to any good the bear contributes to mankind? Oh yes, 1 forgot, it provides an outlet for the killer spirit of the big game "sportsmen."
 If you wish to do something worthwhile with your organiza
 tion, get them to study the fish cries of Alaska, it's maladminiS- tration and destruction. The en- tire fishing season from May until August in Southeastern Alaska is destroyed by and with the protection of the federal re- eulations as administered by
 MT. O'Malley. The herring fish cry is destroyed-please read up t h special investigations ot
 George Rounsfell, IT,, of the Bu- reau of Fisheries.
 I am an Indian and our press speaks the thoughts and ideas of the Alaskan Indian. We are not destructionists as far as our wild life resources are concerned The Indian in the past taught his children to conserve fish and
 same for future food and cloth ing. Deer were never killed for the fun or lust of killing-they were killed only for food. Beaver
 were trapped in such way that
 only the larger ones entered the traps; the Yakutat Indian War with the Russians was merely the objections of those people to the ruthless destruction of the seaotter. We killed our bear for food and for it's fur and for the protection of our people. Since the protectionists have gotten hold the situation these animals are becoming a nuisance. There are countless instances of at tacks and escapes of our peoples in the hills from these animals that never get into the paper your 250 experiences to the con-
 t-ary. When you come to Alaska and show us picture of your self feeding the bear in his wild habitat to prove to us that they
 ale not ferocious, when you
 bump into a sleeping bear as did
 Thayer; when you pack a deer
 out of the hills and meet one of
 these animals on your trail and
 shoo him off, giving us a picture

JUDGES WILKINSON
 APPOINTMENT UNDER FIRE

Richberg gave a statement of the case-the contracts between the several groups had expired On a Sunday Negotiations be- tween the movie houses and the union had been going on for some time but some of the managers had definitely refused to renew contracts on any basis acceptable to the players.
 On Sunday, without notice Of any kind whatsoever, Wilkerson issued a temporary order re- straining the union, it's officers and members From insisting upon the terms and conditions of employment which they were seeking in new contracts. From striking or calling a strike. From leaving or threatening to leave their employment without the consent of their employers; from enforcing the bylaws of the union against it's members. When Richberg had comtleted reading the injunction. Senators Borah, Walsh and Dill looked as incredulous as a group of sur geons might look if told that a fellow doctor had cut a patients ears off while lancing a boil on his neck.
 "If man cannot quit work without his employers consent : work which he has not contract cd to do-What is the difference between his condition and i,.- voluntary servitude?" asked Walsh. T don't know of any difference, Senator" replied Richberg.
 An injunction issued by Judge James H. Wilkerson of Chicago shocked the members of the Senate Investigating Committee nearly out of their shoes when Donald R. Richberg read it to them recently. They had great difficulty in believing that any judge could issue such an order, and then they grasped the as founding facts, their faces were grim, states LABOR.
 MT. Richberg concluded his presentation on behalf of the railroad workers who are op- posing President Hoover's at tempt to promote" Wilkerson to the U. s. Circuit Court-just one step removed from the Supreme Court.
 MT. Richberg referred to the Musicians case as "An example of intolerable abuse of injunc- tions was given by Judge Wilk- erson in series of cases against the Musicians Union of Chicago in 1928. He enjoined the union. its officers and members from leaving or threatening to leave their employment without the lconsent of their employers"
 What was that!" exclaimed Senator Borah.
 Richberg repeated his state ment. Borah seemed hardly to believe his ears. Walsh of Mon tana leaned over the table, Eushy brows a-bristle, and after assuring himself that Richberg was entirely serious, said: Read the order in which he said that, please!"
