LINDLEY GARRISON,
SECRETARY OF WAR
UNDER WILSON, dies
Had Resigned in 1916, Unable
to Agree With President
on Defense

Sea Bright, N. J., Oct. 20.-(P)-The
death of Lindley M. Garrison, former
secretary of war, Thursday recalled
his sharp disagreement with Woodrow
Wilson over national defense prob
lens and sudden resignation from
that presidents cabinet in 1915.
Garrison died here Wednesday
night. During his 60 years he served
both as a New Jersey state official
and in Washington. Then he return-
ed to the private practice Of law with
the New York firm of Hornblower,
Miller and Garrison.
Wilson made Garrison's acquain-
lance in New Jersey, where he was
vice chancellor from 1904 to 1913.
During the latter part of this time
Wilson was governor, and when he
went to the white house he put Garri-
son at the head of the war depart
ment.
His break with Wilson came unex-
pectedly early in 1916. Garrison had
been pressing for a national defense
plan built upon federal continental
army as opposed to the National
Guard. Wilson, too, espoused the
plan in public speeches but in CORE
spondence with Garrison said that
while he believed control of the mill
tary reserve should be placed under
federal direction. he was not "irrevoc-
ably or dogmatically committed to
any one plan."
The house military committee was
opposed to the Garrison plan. Wilson
advised his secretary he considered
his insistence that only the war de-
partment plan should be considered
wholly unjustifiable."
On Feb 10, 1916, Garrison resigned
because ut is evident that we cannot
agree on defense principles" His as
sistant secretary, Henry Breckenridge,
resigned with him. Newton D. Baker
later was named secretary.
Born in Camden Nov. %, 1854. Gar
rison attended Phillips Exeter aca-
denny. Harvard and received his IL.
B. degree from the University Of
Pennsylvania in 1885. He received
honorary degrees of doctor Of laws
from New York university, Rutgers,
Kenyon and Brown.
Garrison was q widower.

Denies THAT HOOVER
is RESPONSIBLE FOR
WORLD DEPRESSION
Chairman Everett Sanders
Takes Issue With Demo.
cratic Spokesman

Chicago, Oct. 20.-(P)-Chairman
Everett Saunders Of the Republican
national committee Thursday took is
sue with Democratic spokesman, who,
he said, had charged that President
Hoover was responsible for "the world
depression" He spoke at Republic
can luncheon at the Hamilton club.
For weeks now" he said, Demo-
cratic orators, headed by the Demo-
cratic nominee himself, have been
telling the voters that the world de-
preston is the result of maladmin-
istration in Washington.
Some have held President Hoover
personally responsible while others
have claimed that the Republican
party and its governmental principles
have been to blame for this economic
cyclone of world wide scope. The
president also has been held to blame
for not taking earlier steps to meet
the disaster. The last man to utter
this calumny in Chicago was Gov.
Ritchie.
What are the facts?
Mr.. John Raskob, former chairman
Of the Democratic national commit
tee said in his radio address of Oct.
~, 1890:
"'In closing let me say that no
country in the world, not even our
own, was ever in as splendid position
to 60 forward and enjoy period of
prosperity as our country is today.
Everything has been thoroughly de-
flated and business is now turning
upward. The momentum is necessar-
lily slow at first but within three
months with the impetus the auto
mobile industry IS sure to provide,
starting with the January shows, we
will quickly leave depression behind
and all be singing happy days are
here again."
docs anyone believe that the then
chairman was about to burst into
song If he believed that the depres-
sion was only starting?
But Gov. Roosevelt and his lieu
tenants say that President Hoover
should, in the fall Of 1880, have been
taking steps to stop the depression
which he should have known was just
starting.
"Mr. Raskob didn't know.
1.-THE full force of the world lorna
do had not yet reached our shores.
1.-THE Democratic leaders Of 1882 are
taking issue with their old standard
bearer and shouting 'Hoover's to
blame"

The Daily Alaska empire., 1932-08-08

This is not a partisan question and any attempt to make 1t one will be mistake, probably serious one for the Indians themselves.
 The best way to judge what future action an individual organization political otherwise, will take is by their past record. That is the manner in which Aaskans ought to decide which of the two big parties will give the Territory the wisest, most liberal and most encouraging administrations under which will Alaska be the most likely to de- veop along sound lines for the benefit of the people of the Territory first with outside" interests of secondary consideration.
 It is not unfair to say that when this sort of
 measuring stick is applied to the Territory under the Democratic Party and then under Republican regime there isn't much for argument. Prac ically all of the obnoxious legislation of which current complaint is made, all the larger
 lions and withdrawals of public resources from private entry and usage and lesser attendant evils had their origin in the latter Most of the re- noval of restrictions done under Democratic Administrations It is within the knowledge of all ilaskans that the history of the Territory during he past l2 years is not conducive of respect or the regime that had practically everything to do with it's making.

BY RUBY v M. AYRBs

SYNOPSIS: A secret mar riage to Mark Merriman leaves Sondra Kent bound to five years of loneliness, when he sails next day for his position in the Congo, which he hopes will make his fortune. She cannot tell anyone that she is married, for her sister Flora would no longer let her live with her, and Sondra has been brought up to expect to be cared for expensively. She has married Mark while caught in the realization of coming separation, although she has formerly refused to consider marrying a poor man. Sondra wonders whether her friend, John Anderon, suspects that anything unusual has happen ed. Motoring away from the park with him, she tries to adjust herself to her new role of living with secret. An derson loves her, she is sure, although his unhappy marriage puts a barrier before his tell ing her. He knows that some thing is troubling her.

 Yes"
 She was glad to escape from him for moment; there was some- thing a little uncanny in their conver sation, when one remember ed that parting an hour ago at the ship.
 Was it wise to have kept their marriage secret? And yet what else could they have done?"
 It would have made a great deal of difference to her life if she had gone back home and said to Flora: T am married to Mark"
 Flora would have been furious; would probably seized upon it as an excuse to get rid of her.
 "Yoii've got husband-let him keep you" she would have said something like that Sondra knew, and then what would she have done.
 In an aching imagination she saw again their bedroom in the

And then realizing the emotion in her voice she added with a slight laugh. Lets go some where anywhere there's a band"
 Where the noise will success fully put stop to any attempt at conversation-is that what you mean?" he asked.
 She flushed a little at the tone of his voice.
 Aren't you rather cross this morning John?"
 Am I? I didn't sleep very we'll"
 "A guilty conscience?" she ask ed lightly.
 Hardly that I was thinking about you"
 About me?"
 "Yes."
 What about me2" Sondra asked slowly.
 Thinking is not the correct word. I had you on my mind somehow"
 She said mockingly: How very unpleasant it must have been"
 She felt a little uneasy; John had never allowed quite this per sonal element to steal into their conversation before. "It was" he apreed ulIiet1v "I was wishing had it in my power to do something to make you hap pier"
 She turned her head sharply | away.

OVERCOMING ILLITERACY.

Iiterate persons in the United States, ten years of age older, numbered 4283 753 April l, 1880 says the United States Census Bureau. The total population in that age-group placed at 98,723753 by the bureau. Thus the percentage of iliteracy just 43 per cent.
 The number of illterates and the percentage are undenably high, yet there is in them cause for qualification They really are not disgrace full as they at first glance.
 nliteracy is steadily diminishing in this country. Forty years ago, in 1890, 133 per cent of the popu aton 10 years old and listed illiterate Ten years later the percentage had dropped to lO7 The next decade showed decline to TT per cent. In 1920 it was down to an even six per cent. The rate of illiteracy is admittedly too high for this country with it's unexceled opportunities for educa- ton. But it has been declining steadily and at a fairly rate for 40 years at least. And today's
 iterates largely persons under 21 years of age. Considering all these things the fight illiteracy is clearly making comforting progress

JUDGING THE FUTURE BY THE PAST.

Political capital is sought to be made in this Territory by the so-called Alaska plank of the Re publican Party and by general plank relative to American Indians" in that same document, The blanks speak for themselves The Empire has before now congratulated the Alaska delegation to the G. O. P concave for obtaining the plank relative to the Territory, which while not so definite as that adopted by the Democratic Party at it's national gatherings in 1920 1924 and 1928, is nevertheless worthwhile because it is the first utterance Of the Republicans upon that subject.
 The platform pledges the Republican party to
 give the people of Alaska the widest pos
 sible Territorial self f-government, selection
 far possible of bona fide residents for
 positions in the Territory, and placing its
 citizens equality with those in the sev-
 eral States
 This pledge be easily seen may mean much nothing. The qualification of self govern ment widest possible" could readily be construed against extension of any further powers than we now have Contrasted to the oft-repeated Demo- cratic pledge to give Alaska full Territorial" self government it lacks defniteness. The powers of local administration given former Territories stiute a standard to measure the latter by, but there is standard of measurement for the former What might the widest possible powers to one Congress and one Administration might indeed appear narrowly restricted to another. And the objection applies to the pledge of appointment of residents to Territorial positions under the Fed eral Government. The word possible" is there to set limitation where there ought to be none. Ostensiby, American citizens Alaskans already are on an equality before the law with all others of their nationality Thus the last portion of the plank lacks equally in defniteness with the other two
 The Indian plank, heralded as a victory for Alaska tribesmen reads
 We favor the fullest protection of the
 property rights of American Indians, and
 the provision for them of adequate educa-
 tona and health facilities
 In so far as the Alaska Indians are concerned, they now enjoy every protection for property rights that any other Alaskan does. The courts are open to them to redress any injury to either person or property. Therefore. that section is mere sur- pusage, and is neither harmful helpful
 Educational facilities and provision for care of health not adequate to meet conditions existing among the Alaska Indians today They have not been for years, a fact that and is known to the present and preceding administrations There has been some improvement in the recent past and there seems to be a willingness to expand these services on an even larger scale. It ought to be done, whichever of the two big parties successful
