DANGER IN MACHINE AGE

Given another 20 years of the machine age, and the United States would be helpless victim of any foe which might attack it.
 The number of journeymen tech nicians are decreasing every year. In the place of man whose train ing fits him to construct in it's en- tirely any important machine or utilitarian product, like a locomo- tive, we have men trained only to perfect a given part.
 Following the urge of the mach 1ne-age philosophy and economics, it would be necessary to assemble an army of workmen, each a spe- cialist in his especial line, to turn out any one of a number of the important implements.
 Given farms operated upon the mass-production principle and the loss of the directing head, coupled with the passing of the genera

 Specialism has it's limitations. They are where it involves fun damentals associated from the earliest ages with mans progress and subsistence. This is evidenced every day when someone, reared and brought up in highly spe- cialized community, finds himself almost helpless without the aid of a machine and incapable of win ming an existence when thrown upon his own.

Cogent Reasons

Stroller's Weekly declares that Attorney General MT. Rustgard has been a firm friend of. the fishermen. He has saved the territory thousands of dollars by his sound advice and able coun- Isel.
 Let the fishermen remember this "cogent" statement. But let chem also remember: That nonresident halibu" fishermen do not pay and are never forced to pay the tax re- quired by law.
 That the nonresident troller has not paid any taxes in the past three years nor have they even posted bond to pay taxes that are required of resident fishermen.
 If you do not believe this statement, turn to MT. Walstein C. Smith, territorial treasurer and let him show that non-resi- 6ent ha1ih1t mon and tr011nrc are paying the taxes that you, MT. Alaska Fishermen" are re- quired to pay or go to jail for if you refuse to pay!
 Mir. Rustgard's dilatory tactics are much to blame for this con- dition.

Last week Governor Roosevelt
 delivered a speech on public uti-
 llties in Portland. Nothing espe- cially significant about that except that Roosevelt is the De- mocratic candidate for President of the United States. He deliver
 ed his speech over the Columbia
 Broadcasting System and before
 he was through speaking the operator announced forced to discontinue at this point"
 Charles w. Myers, president of
 Radio Station KOIN, Portland through which MT. Roosevelt was broadcasting, stated that the only information concerning the cut that he had was that the Station had definite instructions from CBS headquarters to cease the broadcast at 11:45 pm. east |ern daylight saving time.
 From all reports, Oregon is Tn C n e too extravagant in it's sentiments toward President  Hoover and to be seemingly un-
 fair and discourteous to the De-
 mocratic nominee will not help
 to solidify Hoover sentiment in
 that state even if the cutoff was
 Ia mistake on the part of the Re-
 publican captains.

For Services Rendered

Kelly Rock trap in the Bristol Bay section which trap alone catches more than 100000 salnl or per year. Under the graduated tax bill, proposed by Paul the basic tax on red salmon caught in traps would have been five cents per fish.
 100000 reds X .05c equals S5O,OOO.OO.
 The tax Harris has paid by failure of passage of this bill due to Rustgard's opposition is $2O0 plus a small surcharge.
 Now ask Why did P. E. Harris endorsed Rustgard for Judge.
 Harris and no other cannery man or corporation will endorse Rustgard or anybody else for federal or territorial appoint nent unless they have perform ed services of no small value. They fight those men whom they cannot control Or who refuse to perform such services as saving the P. E. Harris Company $48,800 per year in taxes on one sing:e trap.
 If the electorate desires the political combination which plays it for a sucker and which receives such political plums as rewards for services, they are welcome to such candidates. An other four years of the kind of fishery control Alaska has en- joyed the past several years and oaly those who cannot move out will remain-aside from the h. dians who are now laughing at those who are in the predict. rnent which like a boom-a rang now swings back to hurt the white collared voter just as hard as it has hit the rough neck fisherman.
 A vote for Rustgard is a vote for the P. F. Harris Company and a vote for the cannery sys-. tenn of stif1ing Alaska. Do your duty and enjoy the kind of of fcials you send in to office.
The Alaskan., 1932-09-30

In 1925 William L. Paul, inde- pendent candidate for office of attorney general, as member of the Territorial Legislature, in- troduced a bill which was known a.s graduated tax on trap caught fish. He aligned nine votes in support of the measure and it appeared that this bill which would have taxed the big traps out of business was going through to be put up to the Governor.
 N. O. Hardy, elected from Ju- neau asked that Attorney Gener- al John Rustgard be given the privilege of the floor to speak OF this bill. The courtesy was ex- tended and Honest John" argu- cd against the tax. His argu- ment that 'it might influence the Supreme Court of the United States on a pending case" swung Ben Grier against the bill so that the record showed the votes eight for and eight against and so the bill died
 John Rustgard admits that he perhaps as a district attorney in tEe days more than twelve years ago before he became attorney general, prosecuted the P. E. Harris Company for some minor infraction of the fish laws. Just what it was, he does not say but chances are that the company was prosecuted for a lot lesser crime and paid a much lesser penalty than the present day fishermen pay for alleged viola tiOns of the same laws.
 Anyhow, this same P. E. Harris endorsed Rustgard's candidacy for judgeship-at Anchorage, pre- ferably and at Nome, if the L. s. Attorney General would gaur- antee that John would have at least four years of tenure in office.
 You ask what relation Harris has to the candidacy of Rust gard? Harris owns the famous

LaFOllettes Might
 Switch

The fighting La Folle tt e S, whose name has been political magic in Wisconsin for nearly 40 years, were believed planning a bitter reprisal on the conSer,- vative Republicans who defeated virtually the entire progressive ticket in last Tuesdays primary.
 Predictions were frequent that Gov. Philip F. LaFollette, who lost the gubernatorial nomina = tion to former Gov Walter J. koehler by 100000 votes, ana Sen. John J. Blaine, who was de- feated by John B. Chapple. young newspaper editor by 2O,.- eco votes, would attempt to lead their loyal followers into the Democratic camp.
 If these tactics are employed, it was expected the progressive leaders shortly would indorse the Democratic candidacy of Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt. They have been virulent in criticism of President Hoover's policies.

Admiral William S. Sims, U. g.. N., retired, honorary member of the American Legion sent in his resignation as a member of that organization because delegates to the recent Portland conven- tion went on record as favoring immediate payment of the bonus. He declares the act unpatriotic.

 The difference between "re- tirement" pay and bonus" is i,i name only.

MT. Gunderson of Wrangell sets forth his reason for praising the O'Malley conservation" policies in the fishery adminis- tration. For some years MT. Gunderson was hurt by the O. Malley regulations but this year, because of the extension of the fishing season three days after the regular closure, he made $l ,000 in his traps. Because of this, he now says the O'Malley policies are right.
 There were operated in the Wrangell Packing Company some twelve seines this summer. None of whom made any money during July and August or even during the three days extension. Sixty men with families depend ent upon them forced into vir- tual slavery because of the fact that O'Malley through his dis 'crimlnatory regulations h a 5 made it impossible for them to earn any money.
 Since 1921 Wrangell has been in the economic doldrums. They have groped around for a solu- Itlon and hoped to get it through the building of the Wrangell In- stitute. They have hoped for a mining development on the Stik- inc River. But the "boom" never seems to come-it is always just
 around the corner.
 The men who work and bring ir the wages have not been
 bringing in the wages even tho they still work as hard and pay as much for expenses as in the past. That is due to the fact that the conservation" policy of O.
 Malley has prevented them from being satisfied wage earners. Ask any or all the fishermen of
 Wrangell if they have any praise fer MT. O'Malley! Ask all of the
 business men of Wrangell ii they are satisfied with the "con-
 servation" policy of O,Malley We did and we failed to find any
 who had any praise for him
 One man said "Kill O'Malley";; another said, When the country
 is rid of O'Malley we will be able 1 to get decent, fair regulations.
 When O'Malley entered his duties as Commissioner of fish
 cries the resident fishermen were able to earn sufficient to supper
 their families and to pay theil bills. AS O'Malley conserved

S1,OOO Buys Praise for O'Malley

the salmon, the fishermen found that he had instituted closure areas whereby they lost trap sites; and when the areas were opened, they found that the cor porations had grabbed the sites; other fishermen found that they were prohibited from fishing in areas which was directly con- trolled by the traps, The fisher men found that the only way that they could catch any fish was through violation of the law. If that is praiseworthy, then We too will praise O'Malley for his conservation" policy.
 MT. O'Malley cut down the pro- |duction of seine caught salmon from 100 per cent to 20 per cent and he increased the trap pro- cuction from nothing to 53 per Ic e n t-according to his own statistics in the 1881 year book published by the department. He cut out many traps-we will agree that he did this-but they were not productive traps. He cut out all competition so that 1t became unnecessary to operate I"cummy" traps and protected
 the corporations in the deStruc- tion of the June and July salm- on runs. The pack this year in-
 dIcates that there can be no
 denial of this statement for with fewer traps, the fishermen catch
 only 20 per cent of the fish.
 If that be praiseworthy, then we have found something to praise O'Malley for.
 MT. O'Malley enforces the re-
 gulation in section V of the 1924 laws which provides that mo one shall fish for, take or kill any
 salmon in any district in Alaska
 for commercial purposes" during any closed period. But it is only
 the fishermen who have to re-
 snect that law for it is common knowledge that the traps fish
 for, take and kill for commercial purposes" salmon during the
 closed periods. If this be praise worthy, then we will join the
 chorus and also praise him from whom all Alaska's blessings flow.
 But so long as the fishermen !suffer, the resident business man
 suffers from the O'Malley regula-
 tons, we cannot join in any
 chorus and find a word of praise
 for the policy of Henry O'Malley
