ALASKA IN TERESTS AT
 THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
By Will. A. Steel

ators from the latter city wish to come to Washington and be heard when the Fisheries con- mittee has. hearing on this bill. A similar bill was intro- duced in the last Congress and was favorably reported by committee.
 The Juneau Radio Club of- ficers have written the Dele gate complaining of the pres ent interference in getting good reception over their ra- dos because of the inadequacy of the Signal Corps transmits sion line, and asking that ef- forts be made to secure the erection of a proposed wireless station about nine miles from Juneau. Tn taking the matter up with the War Department it was found that there is no appropriation available for the erection of the new station and not likely to be from the present session of Congress. However, a larger transmits sion plant will be sent to the Juneau station, which it is ex- pected will obviate all inter- ference.
 In the budget submitted to Congress by President Hoover there is no reference to a build ing program for the fiscal year commencing July 1, 1882. In a statement recently made by J. Clawson Roop, Director of the Budget, it is announced that all projects already specifical- ly authorized and appropriat- ed for will be pushed to com- pletion. But on account of the heavy government deficit which will amount to two bill lion dollars at the end of June next, and the necessity of rais- ing new taxes, it has been an- nounced by the Budget not to obligate the Government furth- CT during the approaching ifs cal year by requesting new authorizations. If this policy is carried out it will apply to the whole country, and would nee essarily affect the early con- struction of the public build ings at Anchorage and ket- chikan.
 However, various members of Congress, like Senator Jones Chairman of the Appropria tions committee, Senator La, Toilette, and representative Swing, believe that Congress should assist the unemploy- ment situation by providing jobs through appropriations for public works, which would largely mean public buildings. Senator Jones says: 'I should think that $5OO,000,O0O in ap- propriations for public works would be about the limit to which we could go with car- tainty that the funds would be economically and properly ex- pended. Senator LatOllelte fav6rs expending $65O,000,- IOOO for Federal public build ings, river, harbor and flood control works, forest roads and trails, etc. Representative Swing, of California, strongly urges rutting hundreds of thousands of men to work in a Federal program of expansion of internal improvements, in cluding building programs. Should these ideas prevail, and it is more than possible that they may, it is expected that

The Pay Situation
House Gives Workers Fair Play

The victory of Posoffce and Treasury employees in having
the section prohibiting automatic pay raises stricken from the
appropriation bill for those departments brings renewal OF
the threat to cut all Government salaries
is difficult to understand why misguided Representatives
who fought all stimulus from posa workers and
who defeated in that fight should that defeat to
strike further at all Federal workers.
The program of the House Appropriations Committee which
would put ban automatic pay increases has shown that 1t
cannot command majority of the votes of Congress
This has been demonstrated not only by the House action
the Postoce and Treasury b but by the action Of the
Senate Appropriations Committee the Interior and Ag
culture appropriation bills.
With the defeat of this program of penny pnchng at the
expense Of low paid employees the Federal Government once
takes its position in the ranks Of those employers who
realize that the country will not lift itself back to prosperity
by slashng at the average mans income.
Striking out Of the automatic pay increase ban in the Postal
bill should give strength the Senate leaders who have taken
q similar provision from the other bills.
They 60 into conference the two bills and demonstrate
70 House conferees that their body has shown does
not want the provision.
The Senate committee eliminated the provision in the Interior
and Agriculture bill without prejudice but the House the
postal bill showed that there prejudice against
unwhosome and unhoy attempts make the bear
the burden of present conditions
As to the threat that defeat Of the provisions will bring
agitation for general salary cuts in the Government service
that can be attributed to the heat of debate.
Congress which will not ban the small annual increases
certainly should not and could not consistently

THREE-MINUTE JOURNEYS

Always the eyes of the world
are directed toward Africa.
And of late years. tourists,
seeking that elusive something
new," have made trips to Al
rica, always returning to ex-
plore another phase, another
region, of that vast, mysterious
continent that has excited the
thoughts of man because of its
diamonds and gold. And anti
quarianS and scholars go to
Africa in their endeavor to
read from its many fantastic
ruins chapters that will en-
tighten the world about the
people, primitive yet civilized,
that once dwelt in the Trans
Vaal and RhodeSia. And big
game hunters organize enthu-
siastic parties, where very often
more shooting is done with the
camera than with the rifle.

Treasury, at the disposal of
the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation, which means
that Government has gone
into business with a shout
which is echoed fervently by
men who, but yesterday,
were saying that if Govern
ment would attend to its
own business, business
would take care OF itself.
And the Glass-Steagall law,
the most constructive relief
measure in three years, and
a Democratic measure, is
now in operation.
It is to be hoped that such
an extraordinary combina-
tion of measures has made
the banks safe, and that
bank failures will ebb to
nothing.
But to conclude from the
reduction of bank failures
under these circumstances
that the depression tide is

Fearful of
a Crisis
We learn that the organ
lied welfare workers in New
York City, finding their re-
lief money dwindling, are
fearful that a grave crisis
may come about June ].
More than 125,000 refused
the right to work are now
receiving assistance, and ap-
plications for relief are be-
ing filed at the rate of 1900
a day. That is a bit appall-
ing. And that does not re-
motely approach a reflection
of the actual situation.
There are many thousands,
never before dependent upon
charity, who are finding a
way to get barely enough to
keep body and soul together.
Thus a case within our per-
sonal knowledge: A man Of
middle age, an expert in his
line, and drawing a good
salary, was turned out upon
the street IS months ago.
He had saved his money,
and until two months ago
was able through meticulous
care in his spending to keep
his room and eat.
Now savings are gone, and
for a month he has been
existing on 20 cents a day
and sleeping on the benches
in the railroad stations and
other public places. That
man will starve before ho
will enroll as a dependen*
on charity. That is wrong.
of course. But how many
thousands are there like
him?
Meanwhile families are be-
ing set out upon the street
through eviction orders, and
just where they go no ons
knows, and the thing is be-
coming so commonplace thaE
few appear to be interested
in knowing.
What Has Been
Done in Washington
The only thing that has
been done in Washington to
restore to the jobless their
right to work has been the
appropriation under Demo
cratic leadership in the Dem
ocratic House of $132, ,500,-
900 for immediate highway
construction. Of this amount
$12O,OOO,OOO goes to States
with the provision that they
spend it all by June 80,
1888.
The States have 10 years
in which to pay the money
back into the Federal Trea-
sury. The money thus spent
will increase the wealth of
the nation. This is evidently
the best that can be done,
though a five billion dollar

purpose, authorized in spe-
cial session last spring

The test of a mans love,

Some marriages burn out and
go up in smoke: some boil

but most of them just simmer
along comfortably over a slow

To a girl, getting married is
