w. w. Jermane, Associate Edi- tor of the Seattle Times, in a re- cent article in that paper, opines that National Chairman Farley's claims of a Roosevelt landslide in November and unanimous electoral college are not mere wild dreams. He cites the figures of the Literary Digest presidential poll, at that time not as strongly Roosevelt as of today, to show the trend of sentiment.
 This year, however, he thinks the Digest's balloting may not be a true cross section of nationwide opinion. As is well known, the Literary Digest makes up it's poll ing list from telephone directories and mailing lists of mail order houses. There are about 20000,- 900 people in the United States who, for the past three years have mad no telephones and have or dered nothing from the mail order  houses. Due to the prevailing economic stress they haven't had the means to do so. These peo- pie, MT. Jermane believes, are stronger for Roosevelt, or more vehemently against Hoover as the case may be, than those on the Digest's polling list.
 And Representative Frank H. Foster, wheel horse of Alaska Re- publicanism for many years. can not argue against that conclusion. He's probably correct in his facts about the 20O00,O00. And dog gone it. they are 90 per cent. for Roosevelt, and the other 10 for Norman Thomas, Socialist candi- date" moaned Foster.

DOUGLAS CHAMBER BOOSTS
 NEW GOVERNMENT SCHOOL

The imperative need of a new school for the Indian children of Douglas, which has been sought ever since the fire of 1928, where in the former building was de- stroyed, has been taken up by the Douglas Chamber of Commerce as a worthy cause at the present time This need has been extra ordinarily apparent to the officials in close proximity here as well as everyone in Douglas, and for years an appropriation for such new school has been asked for by Act ing Chief Charles w. Hawkesworth without success. But 1t is under stood that the appropriation has at least been made and $2,000 is now available for the purpose. The ob- jeetive of the Chamber is to ob- tain if possible the consent of those in charge of the disbursement. of the funds to spend the money this year Some effort has already been expended with the result that the City Council has agreed to turn over gratis to the Bureau of Indian Affairs certain lots suitable for the location of a new school. With the support of local officials and boost of everyone in Douglas suc- cess should be achieved.
