Cosmic Ray Survey.

The present status of the world cos
mic ray survey, which seeks definitely
to fix the nature Of these intensely
penetrating invisible rays, was reported
by DR.. A. H. Compton, who is directing
the survey under auspices of the Car
negie Institution. There are now, he
said, eight expeditions either in the
field or preparing to take part in the
survey. They practically cover the
world from Greenland to Sumatra, and
an expert in this field will accompany
Admiral Richard E. Byrd in his Ant
arctic expedition planned for this year.
Generally, Prof. Compton reported,
he coSmic radiation, best measured from
high mountain tops, varies with latitude.
This Is in line with the hypothesis that
the radiation consists Of negatively
charged particles-that Is electrons-
which are caught in the earth's mag
netic field. Mathematical considera-
tions have shown that, II this is the
case, the radiation should be most In
tense close to the two magnetic poles
and least in the middle latitudes. They
have been measured at Churchill, on
Hudson Bay near the North magnetic
pole, from the top Of Mount Mckinley
In Alaska, and at Mexico City, Java
and Sumatra.

 SIx-WEEK TRIP
Many Large Cities Through out Country Visited by
 Juneau Banker-Merchant

From indications ob serve d throughout the country it appears that business is beginning the up- grade" said B. M.

C.. New York City and Chicago on business in connection with his banking interests.
 After spending a few days each in Seattle and San Francisco, MT. Behrends went to Los Angeles and after spending a day there, left for Washington, D. c. on the Sun set Limited.
 Business Good

 In Chicago, MT. Behrends at tended a large style show and fashions this year are more at tractice than ever before, he de- clared. Styles are conservative and very becoming Tailored suits are extremely popular for slender types and practically every color is being used. Both materials and ready-to-wear merchandise are very cheap and alf wholesale houses are carrying small stocks so that when times do improve business will pick up very quickly.
 One of the principal reasons given by MT Behrends for the inn proved outlook in business this year IS the fact that much of the stock (ConrInued on Page Three)

lMonarchists' Hopes Ride on German Election; Victory for
 HitIerites WiU Mean Step
 Nearer TO,vard Restoration

BERLIN, March 1.-Monarchists of Germany, the two dozen former loyal rulers and those who still cling to that system of govern ment as ideal, are at the listening posts.
 Their ears are cooked for sounds from the parliamentary election campaign trenches in the hope that victory in the campaign will perch upon the allied banners of Adolf Hitler's Nazis. Alfred Hugen- berg's Nationalists and Franz Sel- dte's steel helmets.
 A new Reichstag under control of a coalition of these elements would hearten enemies of the Re- publican system.
 Bad Luck Hits Republic
 The Weimar republic has not played in luck in the IA years of it's existence. Fate has dealt it several bust" bands, eliminating in the general depression that has made many Germans who honestly wanted to give the republic a chance, think that the old times were more comfortable.
 And what, after all they ask, is the difference between "authorita- rian' government and Kaiser isrn?"
 Dr. Frederick Everling noted monarchist advocate, recently re- plying to a pointed question, said:
 If a popular secret vote were taken today, there would be ma- jority for monarchy"
 And Philip Scheidemann, pro- claimer of the Republic in 1918, asked by a French correspondent if he thought there were many Germans prepared to give their lives to prevent a restoration of the monarchy replied: T doubt it very much"
 Doorn messages repeat from time to time that the former emperor wont come back until his peo- pie call him" But despite denials from various sources that the call is awaited, it is a common belief that he would answer it even though the summons might be limited to a place of residence in Germany.
 Monarchist Groups Organize
 Recently nine monarchist groups formed what they called "a work ing allience.' The list included Evenings League of the Upright, 1" the Black White Red Banner" ]" the Society Tor the Propagation of the Hohenzollern Idea" and other organizations. Their joint program says:
 ''The more we see government by party in Germany being dis placed by the authoritarian idea, the more it becomes plain that law and order in the Reich and it's States can be firmly established only on the basis of a restored hereditary monarchy"
 Talk of Restored Throne Grows
