JOHN H. DUNN
 GIVES ADVICE
 TO GRADUATES
Commencement Exc rcises Are Held at Douglas
 Last Evening

In an exceptionally fine address John H. Dunn, of Juneau, pointed out the ''ESsentials of Success" to the. 1882 graduating class at com meneenent last night. Every word of MT. Dunns address was re- ceived with eager interest and attention, because of the splendid ideas that he presented and the vivid way in which he expressed them.
 l MT. Dunn, in his engaging man. { her, averwed that life consists largely in gaining and losing, of remembering and forgetting. Tn spite of the fact that the Seniors will forget most of the facts that they have learned in their twelve years of school work, they have accomplished great deal as they have laid the foundation for fu- ture education They are just at the commencement when they fin ish their high school days, be- cause the real student goes to school as long as he lives"
 Desire for Knowledge The all-important thing, asserted MT. Dunn, is that the Seniors learned how to study, have &C., quired studious habits and the de- sire for knowledge. Some of the Seniors may enter higher insti- tutions of learning, a college edu- cation is much to be desired, but if the individual is not permitted to gain a college education, he should not be discouraged; to be successful in life, it is not neces- sary to have college education you don't have to get it in college. George Washington did not get his in college, nor did Abraham Lincoln.
 Choose Future
 You should choose your pro fession, business, or occupation early in life," affirmed MT. Dunn. Tn choosing, the greatest care is necessary; then when the choice is made, let every effort you make tend in than direction. If you are honest, upright, fair and square, the way to success is open and there is no such word as fail. Failures are due to misfits and indolence.
 Rough Trails Loom
 "T'he Seniors have been travelling along a broad, smooth level high way, but now they have reached the end of that highway and have come to numerous trails. Some of these trails are down through
The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-05-20

level spaces but arrive nowhere they end in marsh or swamp. 9th CT trails lead gently up the slope, ] higher and higher, but these take ia little more energy, to reach the mountain pass. Another trail is almost up the face of the noun tain, it is steep, difficult and re- quircs energy and perseverance to lroach the very top of the noun tain. Which trail will you trav- DIP" Y Two Essentials
 Mr, Dunn forcibly pointed out that there are two essentials in life, integrity and industry. The most Important thing is an up- right life and an unimpoachable character, based upon honesty, in tegrity, courage and self-reliance and these qualities. will lead any young man or woman to success.
 Value of Journalism a
 Opening the program, Rev. J. w Caldwell gave his invocation. Fol- flowing two songs, win O the wisp' and Merry June,r sung by the Girls Chorus, accompanied by Bernice Edwards, William Cash en delivered the salutatory on the value of journalism in High School.
 Albert Goetz sang 'vale of Dreams" accompanied by Mrs. Goetz. Hilja ReinikKa delivered her valedictory on Americas Greatst Women," in which she eulogized such women as Villa Gather, author; Florence Rena Sa-ii bin, scientist; and Cecilia Beaux, painter. She also gave the class farewell and a toast to the class at the end of her speech.
 Class Presented ,
 In presenting the class Supt. c. H. Bowman emphasized that, "ccmmencement is a beginning in- stead of an ending; the members, have only just reached, the foot hills and the mountains are yet to be scaled" He congratulated the Seniors on persevering in their: studies for twelve years. He de-. clared that it was class of real. ability with Hilja Reinikka's rec ord especially outstanding. In con- clusion, MT. Bowman recited Kip ling's poem "If?" $.
 Felix Gray, Clerk of the School Board, in short speech of con- graduation presented the Seniors with their diplomas of purple leather with gold lettering. He said that graduation was a turn- ing point in the lives of. the Sen iors and that. they were entering on. a new course. He gave brief history of the founding of the Douglas school, He wished that the Douglas spirit of constancy and loyalty would follow the Sen iors through life.
 The Seniors sang their class song, Douglas Forever" Follow ing the program, the Seniors re- oeived the congratulations mad be5t wishes of their parents, teacfi-s CTS and friends. ...

The National Association Of Railroad
and Utilities Commissioners does not
favor the proposal submitted by Sen
ator Couzens of Michigan for a mere
permit" system Of control of inter
state trucks operated for hire, with no
showing Of convenience and necessity
and no regulation of rates.
The association, through its Legis-
lattve Committee and special Com
mittee on Motor Vehicle Legislation,
will appear before the Senate Commit
tee on Interstate Commerce when hear
ings are begun on February ! on Sen
ator Couzens' bill and viii urge that
the interstate trucks should be regu-
lated in substantially the same man
ner as may be applied to interstate
busses.
Favors Rate Regulation!
This course was decided upon at a
meeting Of the associations commit
tees here this week with John E. Ben
ton OF washington, general solicitor of
the organization. Andrew r. McDon-
aid of the Wisconsin Public Service
Commission, is chairman of the Legis-
latiye Committee and J. Paul Kuhn of
the Illinois Commerce Commission is
chairman Of the Motor Vehicle Com
mittee.
These committees were authorized to
represent the association in a resolu-
tion adopted at the annual convention
IN Richmond, Va, last October. 1t was
resolved also that the association ia
vors the enactment of Federal legisla-
ton to provide for the regulation OF the
rates and service of motor carriers en-
gagged in interstate transportation for
hre upon the highways" This has
oeen understood to include regulation
OF contract as well as common carriers.
The Couzens bill provides for the
regulation of interstate busses in sub.
stantlally the same manner as has
heretofore been endorsed by the State
commissioners, the bus operators and
other interests. The last bill on this
subject, commonly known as the Park
er Dill, was passed by the House in
the last Congress, but failed to re-
celVe approval in the Senate.
WIN the bus features Of the present
Dill the State commissioners may be
SAID to agree, and they would like to
see the bill enacted into law even If
there Is no legislation covering the
truck operators. But If trucks are to
be regulated, the commissioners be-
lieve, they should be subject to the
same degree of control, including the
requirement to secure certificates of
convenience and necessity and resu-
lation OF their rates and service.

The Michigan law undertaking To

OF the United States In an appeal
from a decision Of a Federal District
Court sustaining the validity of the
statute. The lower court held in an
action by Ogden & Moffett ct al,
against the Michigan Public Utilities
Commission that the law does not
undertake to regulate the business of
private motor carriers, but only their
operations upon the highways. The
statute Is being assailed on the ground
that 1t Is discriminatory in exempting
certain vehicles and that the regula-
tions imposed upon contract carriers
are not appropriate to a business not
affected with public interest.
