Cod Schooner Is
 After Record

Although the fishing banks ir Boring Sea have been lashed by continuous southwest gales all through July, the Seattle four masted cod-fshing schooner Christensen stands an excellent chance of breaking the Ameri- can record for largest catch.
 This was revealed in a radio message received recently by Capt. J. B. Shields, owner, from Capt. John Grotle, master of the vessel.
 According to this report, the fishermen, despite the handicap of heavy seas, has 253,000 cod fish or approximately 500 tons slowed in the hold. With the earlier catch and the July fish, they are now within seventy-five tons of the record made by the Wawona of Anacortes which delivered 275 tons at San Fran cisco in 1915.
 With a month or possibly more to go, according to the weather, the forty-three members of the crew will beat the Wawona's mark if skill and endurance can do it, Shields says.
 The fleet is small this year, according to Shields, only the Sophie and the three master Wawona, commanded by Capt. Charles Foss, being out from Puget Sound and the three masted Louise and four -masted William H. Smith from San Francisco.
 The vessels will return in late September, and for their efforts these toilers of the sea will be paid off at the rate of about $500 per man above expenses.

Territorial Government

or the ALL-AlaSka Chamber, ana one will find 80 per cent of it's contents devoted to protest a. gainst changes of shifts in pure ly political affairs. They will find no concerted movement looking to listing the undevelop- ed resources near by. no in structive literature or compils- tions which have not been pro- duced by various newspapers whose main support has come from absentee of industries, such as fisheries, steamship companies, etc., and firms selling goods to Alaska.
 Those who would launch ac- tivities face deprecating de- pression by a too large number of those whose support should be inspirational rather than coerced.
 To the disinterested observer, as has been shown by expres- sions from many visitors, Alaska appears to be more interested in political or governmental sub- jects than it is in creating a population of sufficient dimen- sions to afford the cost of full responsibility.
 That this aspect is not lost on Washington has been disclosed on many occasions when Cabin ct members and presidents have expressed the suggestion that "the people of the United States look to Alaskans to begin devel- opment on their oWn.'
 One of the most refreshing outcomes of the present financial end political crisis is the action of Ketchikan in launching just such a movement as the one under discussion.

WILLIE every IcSlUC1lG Ol AldSkd is committed to the principle of full Territorial government -- that is with counties, townships, etc., - the question naturally creeps in what material effect the change might have upon the economic condition of the Ter ritory.
 There are two angles of the situation demanding considera- tion. One is emancipation from longrange government and the other is the introduction of more government with it's attendant expense of operation. On the question of functioning it is de- batable if full county govern r1ent could excell bureaucratic government as it relates to purely intimate personal inter- eSts such as affect the average citizens in his daily activities.
 It would appear more logical to direct energies to develop n:ent programs which would thru natural process create rev. enues commensurate with the demands of more extended local governmental activities. Each county would of necessity de- mand a set of commissioners. These must be paid. They would require justices of the peace or magistrates which now function as United States Commissioners. together with police powers vested in a sheriff, constables, etc.
 Without the relaxation of conservation and the restoration of natural resources to the Ter ritory, to be sold to capital, no change in government would ef- feet the remedy sought.
 History of the West and Ca- rada is replete with organized movements seeking to attract capital, yet there is not one such 0rganizati in the Territory.

FEDERAL WAR
ON CANGSTERS
NEAR COLLAPSE
MCGurn Set Free; Capone
Has Good Chance to
Gain Liberty.

By Scripps-HoiCdrf Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8. - The
federal governments war on gang
sters in Chicago and elsewhere ap-
pears to be collapsing.
Close upon President Herbert
Hoover's expression Of humiliation"
over the necessity Of using the in
come tax law penalties to put away
gangsters, comes supreme court
decision freeing Jack Gebardi,
Capone henchman known also as
Machine Gun Jack McGurn, from
a prison sentence imposed for al
legged conspiracy to violate the
Mann act.
Next week before a federal court
in Atlanta, Al Capone through his
lawyers will seek, apparently with
good chance of success, to overturn
his conviction and extended SEN
tence for violation of the income
tax laws
Capone contends that a three
year statue of limitations applies
to the evaSions charged against him
The government argues that a six
year statute applies.
Hoover Is Inundated
The supreme court has ruled
since Capone was taken to prison
that a tlRee-year limit applied to
another gangster, who was similar
ly prosecuted.
Now Capone, whose conviction
was based on charges of evaSionS
older than three years, has brought
habeas corpus proceedings for free
dom, on the new precedent.
Hoover in his speech at Madison
Saturday, emphasizing the local re-
sponsibility for suppression of crime
and complimenting, the La Toilette
state on its record, said:
Il think you are ALL conscious of
the humiliation that comes to our
countrymen when the federal gov
eminent must deliberately use the
violation of the income tax laws to
collect gains on crime in order to
curb these criminals, who are I'M
controlled, unprosecuted and uncon-
victed by the state and municipal
tiles"
Hoover suggested also that Gov
ernor Franklin D. Roosevelt might
have contributed" to a solution of
this problem during his last three
years as chief executive of New York
state.

Ruling in McGurn Case

The supreme courts ruling in the
McGurn case amounts to a deci-
sion that the drastic federal con-
spiracy laws can not be invoked in
so-called white slave cases, if no
pecuniary motives can be proved.
The lower court sentenced &C.
bardi to two years in federal prison,
and his blond, alleged co-conspir-
ator, Louise ROlph (now his wife)
to four months in Jail.
He has lived with the woman
three years, although married to
another woman, when he made a
trip to Miami with her.
Later, before the trial, he OBJ
tained a divorce and married Miss
Rolph.
The court held that her "mere
agreement to make the trip with
him did not constitute conspiracy
to violate the Mann act.
Since the woman could not be
involved in conspiracy, Gebardi had
no one with whom to conSpire, the
court held.

 BROOKLYN SESSION
Declares One of Hoover's s Statements Is Libel
 on Nation

BROOKLYN. N. Y, Nov. 5.-Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt entered the Academy of Music last night arm and arm with Al Smith and the crowd went wild as the two walked down the aisle and to the platform. The cheers of the crowd inside were caught up by the 25,000 out side of the Academy of Music and it was several minutes before Gov. Roosevelt could be introduced and take his place before the mike"
 Unscrupulous Appeal
 Gov. Roosevelt told the crowd inside and outside, who were list ening through loud speakers, that to take advantage of deprivation of the people to spread among them the gospel of fear, is about the most representable act of the campaign, which has yielded many examples of interruptions appeal for votes"
 Gov. Roosevelt said that Hoover's statement of how close the country came from going off the Gold Standard, was libel on the credit of the United States.
 Forfeits Respect
 Gov Roosevelt said the Repub- licans promised economy but the Government is costing more than at any peace-time since the Civil War.
 Not only has the Government failed to reduce expenses but it has created 35 new departments and boards" and then in stern tones, he said:
 "The Republican Party has for- feited the respect of the decent people of this country"
 Smith Raps Hoover
 Al Smith. in his short speech, said that at first Hoover intended to make only two speeches be cause he was too busy and his record was too well known. But things changed and the latest re- port is IA speeches a day across the country. He did not need to make those if he had talked plain ly to the people during the first part of his Administration.
 Why, for long time, the only thing you got, from the White House was where Dolly Gam was going to sit.

 Well, there was one wise fellow --Mellon-and he took little walk for himself. Incidentally you don't hear much these days about him being the greatest Secretary of the Treasury since Hamilton.
