The slow-poke driver, the who drives in the middle
of the road and refuses to pull at the sound of
horn is the direct of many of the accidents that
the highways On most any of main thorough
fares at all hours of the day may motorists slowly

noyance the many unthnng autossts pass to
the right instead of the left rather than pass the proper
after following in many instances several miles,
dscoreous driver who refuses pull over at the sound
of the horn The refusal of motot get over after

The Book of Proverbs says. "The
borrower is servant to the lender"
but our European friends have found
q way to get around that.
Uncle Sam might write on his cuff
Shakespeare's warning:
Neither borrower nor lender be,
For loan oft loses BOTH itself and
friend"
We lost our friends and money.
Fortunately we can afford to smile
as friends that fawned and borrowed,
expressing eternal gratitude, now turn
their backs, saying in diplomatic Ian
guage, "Try and get It."
II we had no worries more serious
than the loss of a few hundred millions
in gold. we need not worry much. Our
real trouble is not inability to extract
gold from foreign countries, but In
ability to make our own marvellous
gold and prosperity producing machin-
cry work in the old way.
But that will come back.
You remember, back in 1914, all the
horror about treating a solemn agree
ment between nations as scrap of
paper" When Uncle Sam was helping
Europe to yell about that, he could
not imagine that in 1882 an agreement
to pay billions of dollars lent to friends
in distress would be treated as another
scrap Of paper"

Queen Victoria's Letters
 Mention Kaiser's 'COnceit'

LONDON, June 11.-Queen Vic- toria, near the end of her life, re- trained from giving Kaiser Will helm II. of Germany "a good snub'' because she decided 1t wouldn't do," it is revealed by the publica- tion of the final volume of her letters.
 The name of the Kaiser appears frequently in the letters and they show the late Queen as con- stant advocate of forbearance when his doings aroused British hoStil- ity.
 When he sent a telegram to President Kruger of the South Af- rican Republic at the time of the Boer War exciting furious anger throughout Britain. the Queen wrote:
 Tt wouldn't do to give him a good snub. Sharp. cutting answers and remarks only irritate and do harm, and in sovereigns and prin- ces should most carefully be guard ed against,

Williams faults come from irn- petuousneSs, as well as conceit, and calmneSs and firmness are the most powerful weapons in such cases"
 In 1897, four years before she died, Victoria made an entry about her grandson, the present King, then the Duke of York. Four years after George had married the pres- ent Queen Mary, she wrote:
 T took leave with much regret of George and Mary. Every time see them I love them more and respect them greatly. That God, Georgie's got such an excellent and useful and good wife"
 When the present Prince of Wales was two years old the Queen wrote:
 Dear little David is the most attractive boy, so forward and clev- CT. At luncheon time he always tries to pull me out of my chair saying. Get up, gangan'. It makes us laugh very much"

CONGRESS NOW SPEEDING WORK
 ON MANY BILLS
Democratic Relief Measure Sent Back to House
 Economy Issue Up

WASHINGTON, June 11.-Con- gress pushed forward today for an early adjournment.
 The Senate approved of the Democratic Relief Bill and sent it, none too friendly, to the House, then tackled stack of appropria- ton bills.
 The House is working on the home loan discount bank system.
 An agreement on the Economy Bill is looked for during today. Some forecasts were that President Hoover's furlough plan for cutting the Federal payroll costs, approved by the Senate, would be accepted by the House. It saves more than the limited pay cut the House ap- proved for the civilian employee group.

By WALTER T. BROWN

ALBANY, N. Y, June 11.-In the same city, Chicago, where an- other Roosevelt was rebuffed by the Republican party which had elected him to the Presidency Franklin D. Roosevelt, fifth cousin of the late 'T. R." will be pre- sented as candidate for the Dem ocratic nomination for the Presi- dency this year.
 'T. R." angered by the renom- nation of William Howard Taft in 1912, broke away from his old party affiliations, inspired the Pro- gressive revolt and made certain the election of the Democratic candidate, Woodrow Wilson. Will son selected Josephus Daniels North Carolina editor, as his Sec retary of the Navy, and the North Carolinian chose the young Frank lin D. Roosevelt as his assistant
 Two years before, Franklin D. Roosevelt had entered the political arena as a candidate for the New York State Senate from a Re publican bulwarked Hudson River county. To the surprise of the State, the enthusiastic young son of the late James Roosevelt, veal thy country gentleman and a Vice. President of the Delaware and Hudson railroad, won.
 Every State Campafgncd
 Twenty years of participation in politics and affairs of the Dem- ocratic party projected Roosevelt into speculation concerning the Presidential race of 1882.
 In two years his campaign for the nomination, conducted almost entirely by his friends, was car- ried into every state. He will en- ter the convention on June 27 with likely strength of more than 500 votes, far more than any other candidate.
 Roosevelt was the -Presiden- tial nominee in 1920 and with James M. Cox as the Presidential selection was badly beaten by the Republican ticket of Warren C.. Harding and Calvin Coolidge.

T,cir's Sho,o Heredity 2 And Crime Are Mates

NEW YORK, June II. Three hundred and fifty-two pairs oi peculiar twins, tabulated in Eugen- ical News, point to heredity as a major cause of wrong-doing
 Their peculiarity is mental dis orders, from crime to epilepsy affecting at least one in every pair. The tabulation, by Dr. Ar ron J. Rosanoff of Los Angeles, shows two kinds of twins, "iden- tical' and ordinary. Among the identicals the proportion of both exhibiting disorders is overwhelm- ing. It is seven or more times greater than among the ordinary twins.
 Identical twins are the nearest known human approach to the likeness of two peas in a pod. >
The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-06-11

By an accident of birth, their heredity is likely to be about as nearly identical as if they were one person.
 Ordinary twins are nearly as dis tir1ct in the origin of their hered- itary traits as two children of the same mother born at differ ent times.
 Among the male identical twins both are affected in sixty-six cases, against nine pairs with only one involved In female identicals both are delinquent in fifty eases against six.
 Among ordinary twins only about half the pairs show both members affected. Male twins are little worse than females in the ten- dency for both to go wrong.

ALIBI IS OFFERED

TRENTON, N. J., June 11-Col. H. Norman Schwarzkopf, of the New Jersey State Police, announced that Brinkert voluntarily came across the New York State line to the police headquarters at Alpine, N J., for further questioning.
 Brinkert offered as an alibi for his whereabouts on the night of March l and the following day. He said, in his statement, that he and his wife were in Bridgeport, Connecticut, asserting that he and his wife spent the nights of March 1 and March 2 lin a very nice home owned by negro"
 Picture Identified
 "The man now at Alpine under the name of Brinkert is the same man whose picture we have" said Col. Schwarzkopf. "This picture was shown to Violet Sharpe and she identified it as being a picture of the man she was auto riding with on the night of March 1.
 "Jafsie, who saw him last night, and after talking with him, told the police he did not recognize Brinkert, had never seen him be- fore and could make no identifi- cation of him in any way"
 Takes Quick Poison
 Col arzkopf said Miss Sharpe's body was found in the Morrow home just after the police arrived there to question her further.
 We sent word to the Morrow home for her to prepare for ques- tioning," said Col Schwarzkopf. "She took a quick acting poison. The poison is so dangerous that it's sale is not permitted except by prescription.
 Girl Was Normal
 The post mortem, Col. Schwarz- kopf said, determined Miss Sharpe was normal in every way. She was not pregnant nor suffered any disease at the time of her death.
 The New Jersey State Police authorities said they would seek indictment of Brinkert but would not amplify the statement nor in- dicate what, if any evidence, aside from the circumstantial evidence of Miss Sharpe's story and her suicide, that they hold against Brinkert.

 with Flying Boats FIRST OF PROSPECTORS LEAVE TODAY, TAKU Planes Will Leave Sunday
 or Monday to Begin
 Summer Operations

Headed for the wilderness coun- try of Southeastern Yukon Ter ritory, the vanguard of a large prospecting expedition, consisting of Il men, left port today on Capt. William Strong's river boat for Tulsequah on the Taku River. Oth- CTS will depart Sunday or Monday by air on the five flying boats, that arrived here Friday, for an undisclosed destination to search for the elusive paystreak of placer gold in connection with which there has been and still is more or less mystery.
 The mystery is not connected with the object of the search that is gold. But the whereabouts is subject of deep secrecy. And although that secret is shared by at least several members of the party that has been in Juneau for many days, not one of them has divulged it.
 Mitchell Explains It
 The expedition is financed by the Mitchell Exploration Company, Ltd. of Canada. Tom Mitchell, Presi- dent, and J. H. Eastman, Vice. President. It is declared to be fully financed and is not stock selling scheme since there is no stock for sale. A. M. Smith, rep- resentative of the Detroit News, which has figured in the picture since last March, and correspond ent for the North American News paper Alliance, is covering the ex- petition for his paper and the news service.
 Harry Townsend, former Deputy Territorial mining engineer and more recently connected with the Anaconda Copper Company, on leave to make the trip, has been employed by the company to &C., company the party on its first trip to make technical study of the field, advise the prospectors on the best ground to prospect and methods of explorations.
 Tt is our purpose to prospect some promising placer gold re- gions of the Northwest, using the flying boat for transportation of men and supplies as the only logi- cal means of approach" MT. Mitch ell declared today. We expect to put experienced men in the field and keep them there. We will grubStake them for the sum- mer and maintain them there on a 50 50 basis on their entire cleanup.

NEW YEARS DAY

January 1, marking the beginning of the
year, has been observed as public holiday
for many centuries, certainly in Rome since
the reformation of the calendar by julius
Caesar in the century before Christ.
Owing to the confusion in dates which
has resulted from the imperfections of var
ious calendars, which caused skipping of
dates at various times, New Years Day may
be said to be merely an arbitrary designation.
AS late as 1852 the adoption of the Gregorian
calendar by England and the American col
onies caused skip of II days.
However, regardless of the day desig-
mated as New Years at various times and
In various countries, it has been generally
observed as holiday.
The Romans celebrated it with process
sions, abandonment of litigation and strife,
exchanging of visits and of gifts, Teasing and
merrymaking. Early fathers of the Chris
tian church did not approve of these festivi-
ties, but recommended that the day be de-
voted to meditation, scripture reading and
works of charity.
But about the fourth century, when De-
cember rs had been agreed upon for the OBJ
servance of Christ's nativity, New Years
Day, falling one week later, began to as
sumo sacred character, as the anniversary
of the circumcision and as such it still fig
ures in the calendars of certain branches of
the church.
Other religious faiths, such as the Mo-
hammendan and Jewish, have their own

people, they are both going out on
their ears. The Democrats are only
in for a trial.
So on with the show. We will
have many a laugh in the next four
years for there is one thing about
the Democrats, they never put on a
dull show. But always remember
this, that as bad as we sometimes
think our Government is run, its
the best run ever saw.
So this winds the whole thing UP.
There has only been two that has
disagreed with me, the "Rabid"
Republican, that was just sore at
the world anyhow, no matter what
you said, and the other is the Can
cellationist. My lack of humor,
lack of english, lack of good taste,
and all the other things they accuse
me of, is lot of bunk. Let the
same things be said in favor of
their opinion, and I would be a
great guy. So now we got the
whole thing Strengthened out. He
is 'tDie Hard" Republican, or a
Cancellationist. But you are still
going to get the truth.
