ISSUE OF CITY ELECTION

The main issue in the forth coming city election is the pur chase and installment of a die sel auxiliary unit to be an ad- dition to the hydro-electric sta ton now being operated in Blind Slough. If the council follows the attitude of the pre- sent body, an auxiliary unit will be purchase and installed. Under present circumstances MT. Lock en is opposed to the expenditure necessary to install such equip ment. Election of the city off, cials will give approval or dis of the plan to add to the indebtedness oe the town.

WHY

Senator McNary has intro Guced a bill seeking to classify Sitka spruce as an agricultural commodity under the term of the Agricultural Marketing Act.
 Senator Ham" Lewis advo- Cates the aboliShment of the Interior Department, Interstate Commerce Commission, Ship ring Board and Trade Commis- sion. Functions of the Interior Department, not eliminated would be transferred to the Agricultural Department under the proposal. He said the gov ernment would save 5,OOO,OG0 by this move.

DEFICITS

The recent Treasury report shows that the deficit for the first eight months of the current fiscal year is $1,781, 100000 and that this will be increased to s2,5OO,OOO,OOO. The only way to prevent deficits in any treasury is to quit spending money. But just as soon as the legislators start to prune appropriations down, the political interests be- gin to holler for fear of offend ing voters who desire federal improvements at the expense of the treasury.

HELPING OUT THE BEARS

Despite the demand for feed ing babies and reducing the b, eadlines of the adults in the States, John M. Holzworth, pres ident of the National Association of Wild Life Conservationists, Inc, finds time to sidetrack such insignificant matters to plead the cause of the Alaska brown bear. The Gateway is in receipt of a clip sheet, composed of expressions from a number of newspapers away down east, !" u, ,ging the creation of additional reservations for the brown bear. He asks The Gateway to join him in his noble service"
 Fair enough. We heartily a., gree that something should be done about it. Let all those ad- vocates of stif1ing the Territory for the benefit of a few indivi- dualS who relish shooting a wild animal for the fun of seeing it die, harken to the cry against boarding; buy large slice of the public domain somewhere in the black belt of Harlem, set a force of pennileSs laborers to raging the buildings and domiciles cal. culated to produce the correct psychic reactions in an irrascibIc brown bear. Then round up the rackeeters and toss them into the inclosure, and invite the gang out to witness a demon stration of the docility of broth CT Urside. We suggest Stewart Edward White as marshal of the day, the ceremonies to be opened by his stroking a brown bears whiskers.-SeWard Gateway.

COAL BUNKERS BLOCKED

Those two famous Alaska loving CD Senators, Howell and Kendrick, have blocked the con- struction of the Seward coal bunkers, according to message received recently by The Gate way from Anchorage. The two named alleged statesmen will not agree to the Alaska Railroad appropriation for this develop rlent project unless it can be shown in black and white that 10000 tons of coal will be handl- ed annually through said pro- posed bunkerS.
 Thus, by a wave of the noble CD palm, the labor of years of pioneers, is swept aside by one or two wearers of the royal purple who hold the destiny Of thousands of people in their clutches.
 Why does not Howell and Kendrick want to see the Alaska Railroad pay or Alaska's coal mines developed?

1O-CENTS HAM AND

Down in Portland a restaurant is selling 'ham and" at ten cents and is meeting with opposition from the Walters Union on the grounds that the prices would tend to force down wages.
 There are more people able to pay ten cents for a dish of ''ham and" than can pay four bits or two bits. Tn proportion as the sales increase the force of wait CTS must be increased.
 The war is over-and another war-War on prices is on.

SMALL CONSUMER SOAKED


 Morris Llewellyn Cook, trustee of the New York State Power Authority and one of the fore most electrical engineers in the country, declares in the March number of Survey" that do- mestic consumers and small commercial consumers of elec- tricity in the United States are paying twice as high prices as they should.
 These consumers use 30 per cent of the juice and pay 61 per cent of the gross revenues of power companies" says MT. Cook. In profit, in steady demand and in possibilities for increased business, the small users have become the hope of the electri- cal industry. In spite of this, they have been treated as second fiddle by the industry which has overcharged them.
 Electricity cannot be as free as air, but it can be sold as water is sold, so it's use will not be unduly restricted because ot the cost"
