speech and proclamaton-they gave almost simultaneously, pledge and then performance of action" in abundance. The nation accepts, even welcomes such extraordinary steps; old laws and customs "are silent amid arms"
 For this is virtual war,-once again in defense. The President goes back to wartime statute, made to it todays terms of gold and currency. The response to appeal given in Commander in Chief tones is without taint of partisanship MT. Hoover and Mrs. Coolidge, for example, in their urging of complete support for the President voice the present feelings of myriads however these myriads voted November 8.
 Possibly there is further historical analogy with the wartime. Apparently not ready psychologcay and nationally for conflict until the torpedongs made us so finally in 1917 So now it is our clearly demonstrated close verging catas- trophe that bids us unite again in the same spirit which bought Libertys and in a cheerful loyalty went without meat, sugar, wheat heat, light, etc. As MT Roosevelt said briefly the radio Sunday night it is the 1917 sacrifice spirit again
 President Roosevelt has of course his further warrant which did not exist before-his huge Novem- Der majority and the great party dominance of the new Congress he has called for Thursday. His audacious leadership should whip that body to Icompiant action, just it should little later make good his inaugural pledges of sound currency and a balanced budget His talks with Director Douglas already sharing his time with banking discussions
 The leaders of Congress yesterday were mar shalling their forces with plans to use the club of the caucus at need to force through a three fold program to halt withdrawals to supply an emergency (presumably clearing house certificate) currency and to provide for redeposits. Congress thus supplies the proximate step in the program. That final drive will be against what the Presi- dent termed fear" and, alas, those who have yielded to it. It may be little scoldng now their mser-coward complex in so abusing what used to be their legal right to hide away their own property as to hurt their neighbors and them- selves. They may perhaps now listen to the invoca- ton of wartime statute Far better their voluntary response to the old wartime appeal to loyal spirit

The remainder of the fund will be devoted towards the Northwest National Convention of Business and Profession Women's Clubs to be held in Seattle in 1855, at which convention the Alaska Club is counted among the hostesses. After the convention there will be a goodwill tour of Alaska, which the Juneau organiza- tion is endeavoring to make suc- cesSful.

PRESIDENT PROCEEDS VIGOROUSLY.

President Roosevelt continues his vigorous attack on the problems that beset the nation. His latest message to Congress adds unemployment relief to the notable list already embraced in the program submitted and partly acted on by Congress.
 Here too he calls for action. It is not some thing vague and indefinite that he has in mind. He asks for specific authority to enrol workers for definite projects in instances; for grants to individual States for relief work; and broad public works and labor creating program.
 This is something that the people of the nation can understand. Hungry and women, too long advised to depend upon private largess which was months ago overwhelmed with the magnitude of the task set for it. view it with renewed hope. Nor is it likely that this hope will be long deferred. 'Immediate action is necessary President Roosevelt advised Congress. His leadership already has ob- tained passage of laws around which legislative battles ragged for months recently Emergency bank ing laws, the national economy and administrative reorganization legislation, and the beer and wine bill have already emerged from the national law making machine in the less than two weeks that have elapsed since Congress was called into special session Farm relief legislation is well advanced in the House
 Part of this achievement is due, of course to the efficient leadership in both branches. Speaker Raney and his aides in the House have a we'll oiled organization keyed top pitch. In the Senate Senator Robinson, Majority Leader, Senator Ken drick, his assistant and Senator J. Ham Lewis Party Whip working through caucus are just as efficient Cooperation from Republican leadership has not been lacking, either
 It has been however, the vigorous leadership of the President that has set the pace for Congress A less forceful leader one who feared to act de- cisively and even abruptly the occasion arose would have met with indifferent and divided support i,, have set the pitch which the national lawmakers have caught up and maintained in the drive for the program that he promised the country and upon the strength of which he elected President by the greatest electoral and of the greatest popular majorities in history.

"The Scheme of Things"
(NeW York Times.)

lNeW OrK llmeSJ
 Contemplating the present state of the world many ready to say with Omar Khayyam in the FitzGerald rendering that if they
 could with Him conspire
 To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,
 they would "shatter it to bits and
 Remod it nearer to the Hearts desire. Dr. David Eugene Smith has made another version which follows more closely literal translation:
 Had I been Lord of Cosmos Maker of the
 World,
 The mundane sphere itself I would have plotted out
 And in its place would have made another
 world
 Where happiness held sway and sorrow
 forgot.
 But whatever poets may dream, philosophers warn us to beware of such shatterng and remolding plans for universal happiness. Professor Frederick Woodbridge of Columbia, in a recent discussion of UtopiaS expressed the hope that they may remain Nowhere; for with complete regimentation cviliza- tion would disappear altogether" Bees and ants have regimented world, their entire existence seeming to be exhausted "n the repetition of the same pattern generation after generation" It is amazing that anybody should think that such a plan could be made to work for human beings Plato confessed that in his Utopia "the regimenters would have to tell regimented lies of kind tc lead the people to submit. Regimentation may be necessary in time of war, but is not permanent peace pattern"
 Schemes to make civilization automatic or com pulsory seem to be schemes which the Scheme of Things does not favor" It does favor socia orders which recognize that moral responsibility frankly acknowledged and deliberately acted upon, is the great means of making civilization secure" Ever the economic problems were solved through contro of production and consumption, the desired result: do not hold out promise of ease, happiness anc leisure. Professor Woodbridges prayer is not for Utopia or for rigid plan, but that may keep the chance to live and through neghbory giving and taking, through the acceptance of moral responsibility, through the devoted cherishing of literature science art and religion discover what is the desire of the heart.

sUPT. KETTLEsON POINTS TO NEED.

In his biennial report to the Board of Trustees of the Pioneers Home and just transmitted to it by Gov Parks as Chairman, Supt Ketteson points regrettable condition that ought to be possible of some remedy without serious to the Territory This is found in single paragraph in his report as follows:
 Up to the beginning of this biennium
 all applicants to the Home, who, in the
 opinion of the Board of Trustees, should be
 admitted, had been cared for at the Home.
 But early in 1931 more applications were
 received than could be cared for owing to
 the limited amount of room, and since then
 more applications having been accommodating
 until there over thirty applicants wait
 vacancy
 Of course the Board of Trustees is powerless or it's own motion to do anything to relieve the stua- tion. Its duties are definitely fixed by law. The Legislature however, has the power to give the Board sufficient eeway to find place somewhere for these aged men who have turned to the Terri tory in vain for the help they need they enter the shadows near the end of the road.
 Supt. Kettlesons report shows that it cost about $3650 per month last year to care for each inmate of the Home, including medical and dental treat ment If not for that sum- by adding a few more dollars it is likely that the Board could find some place in the Territory where those than thirty applicants waiting to enter the Home when there is vacancy be looked after. At least the Legislature could authorize it to make the effort.
