"A DIRTY RAG"

Senator Borah of Idaho spoke i'll the Senate this week arguing for federal relief for unemploy- ed. The LaFollette- -Costigan re- lief bill was before the senate which would provide S375,OO0,- GOO for aid to the jobless. The Senator said: "The human brain never coined terms to paint the picture of suffering as it is.'' You may call it a dole, but the needy call it something to eat , "A government which does not protect it's people is flying a flag which is a dirty rag"

The American press has been spreading much space in con demning the troubles encount- cred by women in the Hawaiian Islands. Fuel was added to the editorial flames by the recent MasSie murder case in which a mother, a husband and two American sailors took part ill lnurdering a Hawaiian who Was alleged to have assaulted young Mrs. Massie, wife of an Amerl : can Lieutenant in the Navy. The press has gone into a hysteria and yellow pressed and exag- eerated the stories of similar chimes in the Islands.
 We point to the assaults a. gainst little girls in Philadelph- ia, in Cincinnatti, in New Yo1s. assaulted and then murdered, to the many assaults and mur- ders being published daily i'll these United States. Before cleaning up the mess in the Hawaiian Islands, it would net te a bad idea if we started to clean up our own dirty back yards. Rather in the words of the Christ, let us to say, Let him who is without sin cast the first stone" At least, let us make these United States a safe place for our daughters, wives ard sisters to live in before cleaning I'D the Hawaiian Islands where in the greater portion of the population are OrientalS.

NAME FEM AND TAKE FEM

There are Democrats and de- mocrats- s-honest to goodness Democrats and others just rats. Which is one reason why that party has had to drink of hem lrck bark so often. In Alaska the residents have been made to taste the poison of that branch which today wears the brand of Democrat, tomorrow Independ cnt and the next day Republi- can. And for that matter, real, honest to goodness Democrats say the same thing about the Republicans of Alaska. Sweat on politicians, Sweat on.

WHO ARE REPUBLICAN

For the past ten years, the Brotherhood has stood consist ently Republican and as a re- ward it's leader sent into exile it's membership discriminated against by law-rotative ballot withdrawal of pension fund from widows, orphans and aged. sent it's members to jail for vot- ing and it's mother" to jail for procuring an illegal vote. De- spite all of which the organiza ton has voted Republican in the primary and abided by the will of the majority in the general election.
 We will ask the several Re publicans who have filed for nomination for election to office just how THEY voted. And why? And do they now expect the suQ- port of the Brotherhood. And for that matter, some of the leading or misleading lights of the Democrats were party to the chicanery of the Republicans in trying to destroy not only the political solidarity of the Broth erhood but to discredit it's every effort to develop decent citizen ".
 It might not be a bad idea fer those politicians to tell the Brotherhood just why it should support any or all of them--Re publican or Democrat. The Com rnittee is waiting. before it will make any endorsements top late, too late, when the primary comes around without endOrSe ments.

OMALLEY OPPOSES FISH
 CONSERVATION BILL

Henry O'Malley appeared be fore the Committee on Merchar- Marine and Fisheries and 'op- posed H. R. 495, a bill introduce by Delegate WickerSham to pre- vent the further wanton waste and destruction of food fiSh 1he Commissioner declared that it would be unWise and unneces- sary. That the fish were being used for fertilizer and oil-that use of the small herring would be a wastage if the bill were passed.
 It is pointed out that special iny estigator George Rounsfel, IT., has had published two re- ports on the herring fisheries His investigations have borne cut the truth of the charges that the fertilizer industry has virtually destroyed the herring fisheries wherever they have operated. That the local herring gre not in any way similar to the Norwegian herring and are therefore easily depleted in the various fishing areas, is also ?ointed out. This fact was as 7erted more than ten years aso by fishermen; it has been pub lished by the fishermen at every opportunity and the Bureau of Fisheries spokesman has always tenied the allegations.
 The trolling industry and the halibut industry are being threatened with extinction by he Wanton waste of this foo l fish. Unless the herring are pro- tected by this measure, the :almon which feed on herring will not be found in these waters and the halbiut fishermen will be unable to procure bait for their operations.

industry generally. It is not stated if AlaSkans have been consulted in the matter."- Associated Press Dispatch.
 Alaskans have not been con- suited in the matter. They are never consulted in any matter of legislation relative to the fisheries. They are never even given a hearing. Several years ago, hearing was promised the fishermen-it was just an empty promise, made under the spur of pressure. A promise made With no intention of being kept has it's own name. Use it.
 Any legislation before Con- g1ess which has the general sup port of both the bureau of fish cries and the salmon cannerS is legislation to be viewed with suspicion. History reveals that the combination of federalS ard salmon cannerS have double, crossed the Territory right a. long. It is impossible for us tJ believe that in the slick manner ir which this legislation is going through, that there is not a colored gentleman in the wood pile. It should bear close scru- tiny.
 Delegate Wickersham when asked at the convention of the Alaska Native Brotherhood at HaineS what his reaction would be on introduction of such a bill in Congress, if he were elect ct, replied without hesitation, T would oppose it." Naturally that action is expected.

TT WILL BE A MISTAKE

Delegate Wickersham is quot ed by a newsprint as declaring that he will not press for pas sage of his bill to prevent the Wanton waste and destruction of herring. It is intimated in this same newsprint that the Delegate is hedging on his own bill because he "did not know that Commissioner O'Malley was opposed to the bill." All of which might be true-but we doubt the statement.
 The bill has the support Of the entire fishing population white and Indian. It has the support of the ha1ibut men. the

THE JUDGE" IS A BRAVE
 BOY

William J. Chuck, more gen. erally known in some quarters t.S "The Judge" of KlaWock wrote the following letter to a prominent politician. The read CTS, especially the Democrats. will enjoy it. Perhaps some of the republicans will also.
 Brotherhood Goes Democrat"
 Professor w. J. Chuck, more generally known as Judge Billy Chuck" of KlaWock in the let ter said:
 Been in Ketchikan la t month and find the republicans and the Democrats are sparring around for opening, wander why the Republicans start to quit their own party and join the Democratic's. I know of four leaders that file with Demo. and it looks as the whole west coast will support Democrates this year.
 T have talk to some of the strongest A. N. B. in Ketchikan and find out same all over, and shortly befor we left Mayor Flank Peratrovich of Klawock filed on Democratic ticket for lower house, and I am sure the whole west coast of Prince of Wales Island will back Frank right throu. of course we expect strong opposition from some the A. N. B. Camps up further on account of beating brother Paul, every body seems to be scared of him, but sure made a mistake when he attacks I and Frank, he find it just a little different it looks as if it's going to be siam bang election"
 Yours very truly,
 w. J. Chuck.
 Billy has gotten to be a clever politician. So good that he is icing taken into the confidence of both factions of the Demo- crats and the Republicans at the same time. But it should rever be forgotten, even by poli, ticians, that a dog that will fetch bone, will pack one.

THE MAN WHO STAYED TOO
 LONG

A few short years ago, Andrew ". Mellon, was hailed as "a second Alexander Hamilton" as "0ne of the greatest treasurers and fnanciers in history"
 Representative Patman insti- tuted impeachment proceedings against the aged treasurer and when President Hoover nom'- rated him for ambassador to England, Patman declared that it was a presidential pardon before conviction on impeach- ment charges"
 Had he left office a few short years back, Andrew w. Mellon would have gone down in his tory as an immortal treasurer = but he stayed too long. He vert out of office with charges hang ing over his head and his guilt remains an academic question He went out the most condemn cd of any treasurer since Alex ander Hamilton instead of an equal of the great Hamilton. He stayed too long.

who walked home from a Saturday

Carroll, Cary Grant and Randolph
Scott, which opens today at the Para

Nancy Carroll, has always played

OF the bank; each Saturday she takes
her pay envelope home and dances
with the boys at Willow Springs.
She's level-headed and she knows
enough not to take Romer Sheffield S
attentions too seriously Romer Gary
Grant, is a wealthy young man who
has summer home near RuthS
town and has scandalized the entire
town by keeping girl at his home.
But through series of perfectly
innocent circumstances, Ruth is seen
to get out of Romer's car at an early
hour Sunday morning. The result is
total ostracis1n by the entire town and
a girls bitter facing of the fact that
people, on the whole, would rather
think evil than good of their neigh

and libertine, turns out to be better
than the lot of them.
Nancy Carroll is as charming as
she has ever been in the role of Ruth,
bringing great sympathy and reality
to her portrayal. Cary Grant is ex-
cellent as Romer; and there are other
fine performances by Randolph Scott,
as an old sweetheart of Ruth's, who
can't stand the gossip any better than

New Members Admitted Into the Order at Ses-
 ~,.~s n sion Sunday Night

Saturday night at Camp Sepun- kum there was the usual thrill of the different camp fires, with the songs, stories and stunts that go with them.
 Sunday night the camp staff put on the program with many visit ors present.
 Monday afternoon there. was a scout meet under the direction of Stan Fowler. The events were: Fire building, water boiling. knot tying and inter-troop competitive games.
 Monday night Camp Hillside and Camp Lookout had an overnight hike.
 Sunday night the following new members were taken into the O. s. (Order of Sepunkum.) Doctor" Lovelace, Charles Edwards. Law renee Cole, John Purinton, Ed. ward Claffey, Claude Parton. This is an honor coveted by all scouts at Pepunkum and is only con- ferred on those who. because of special service in camp or to their troop, exemplify the scouting spirit and are considered worthy of this high honor.
 The following is a list of those

wanted and how to get it; its propagandists were able, its polit- ical experts were shrewd. i Sought State Laws
 State prohibition laws were the goal at fir st. When the league celebrated it's goth birthday, in 1913, the list of dry states had increased to nine, and congress had been induced to pass the Webb-Kenyon act. pledging the federal government to help dry states stop importaitns of liquor from wet territory adjoining.
 In that year the league held a jubilee meeting at Columbus, o. and announced that from that date it would drive straight for a federal prohibition law. Two weeks later 4,00O men and wom- en paraded in Washington in a prohibition demonstration. The league busted itself in congress sional elections. and in 1914 sent no fewer than 50,000 speakers into the congressional fights.
 Mir Wheeler later testified be- fore the sea nttchat it was not unusual, at thhat time. for whole freight carloads of prohibition propaganda to be shipped from Wcsterville in one day.
 All of this had its effect. A fact not generally recalled today is that in the fall of 1914 a ma jority of the House of Represent tatives voted for a prohibition amendment. To be sure. the amendment got no farther; but the indication of the leagues growing power and of the growth of prohibition sentiment, was plain enough for any observer.
 Nevertheless, those most op- posed to prohibition paid little attention to it. The organized liquor trade certainly failed to see the handwriting on the wall.
 Unbiased observers have stated that the liquor trade in a very real way helped to bring prohibit tion on itself. It permitted the open saloon to become fostering sore in municipal life when it could very easily have compelled q clean-up. It allowed the very phrase, "liquor trade" to become weighted with unpleasant conno- tations. When it tried to fight the AIltI-SodiOOH A lcdS uc IL uSCu' toStiSo that were not only pitifully inef- fective but highly repellent. In every way it alienated those who might have defended it and strengthened the cause of it's foes.
 Not until 1916 did the U. S. Brewers association wake up and offer to clean house. By that time it was too late. The tide was ris- ing-or perhaps it would be bet ter to say thGth it was going out too fast. The stable door was being locked not only after the horse had been stolen but after he had been spirited away to the other side of the country.
 Congress Goes Dry
 By the time the United States enetred the World war. in 1917. twenty-siX states had gone dry and the Anti-Saloon league was ready to introduce hte 18th amend mcnt in congress.
 The fact that war was on probably helped the league mate rially. In the first place, there was an undeniable need to con- serve the cereals which were used in the manufacture of liquor.
 Second, the attention of the country at large was focused on France instead of on prohibition.
 Third. many of the most promi- nent anti-prohibition leaders had undeniably Germanic names. which helped to identify prohibit
