MOSCOW, May 21-Reports of
antiSoyiet uprisings in the Soviet
Far East circlfated by the Japanese
press were characterized by the Mos
COW papers as deliberate provocations.
The news - per Pravda writes:

POSTHUMOUS HONOR FOR l.. D.
 BALDWIN.

In honor of the late Leonard D. Baldwin New York City financer, whose interest in the reindeer industry of the northwest in connection with the Lomen interests is familiar story to Alaskans, the Natonal Geographic Board has named 80-mile in the Kotzebue Sound district centering in Lati- tude 96 degrees 22 minutes North and Longitude 162 degrees and 15 minutes West.
 Contributions amounting to $2000000 were made by MT Baldwin and his brother Arthur Baldwin, also of New York City, to the promotion and development of the reindeer industry in this Territory an industry started in the sos by Dr. Sheldon Jackson, Alaska missionary and general agent for the Interior Department, whose interest in the welfare of the aboriginal people of the northwestern section of the Territory led to the introduction of reindeer there.
 Initiated as a means of supplying food to these people the reindeer herds of today far in excess of their food and clothing requirements Deer poor they have been faced for a number of years with turning the surplus into cash. It was the dream of MT. Baldwin and his associates to furnish the necessary opportunities to them to heavily, and so far without financial return. That did not discourage him in his lifetime Realizing that time was an essential requirement. he was content to wait He believed in the country, in its potential greatness and in the future of the indus try in which he had invested a fortune
 The honor that has been paid to his memory in the naming of the far northern strip of land is deserved, and the people will approve gladly of the action of the Geographic Board in thus per petuating his name for future generations.

the last word in banking deflation. They reason that the losses could not be escaped and that the prospect for recovery is inn proved by getting them over with. Reacting in this manner, they have met the crisis with courage and hope. It is demonstrated that sound measures, however drastic, will win the cooperation of the people, and if these measures are administered as they deserve to be there will be no question as to restoration of order in the credit situation
 AS a rule the understanding by the Am erican people of the banking function is of a high order For the most part they know that they cannot all at the same time de- mand the repayment of their bank deposits in cash without pulling down the entire banking situation, with incalculably dis country and upon themselves With all this understanding, however, the instinct of self protection is strong in an individual. He may have the inclination to cooperate, but in times of alarm and distrust he does not know what other individuals are doing, and is likely to feel that immediate protection for himself and his dependents is of more importance than any contribution he can make to the general situation. The tendency of individuals to give way to this reason ing in times of stress is everywhere recogn- ized and banking officials and statesmen are expected to take account of it in their policies.

Canadians hereafter are apt to be careful about packing pistols around in their hip pockets A law just passed at Ottawa fixes penalty of five years imprisonment for anyone convicted of carrying concealed weapons without first having obtained permit to do Canada is proceeding the theory that citizens have a right to own pistols but that those who carry them their persons must have license and in order to obtain that good and sufficient must first be established.
 Generally speaking, law-abidng citizens are not in the habit of carrying concealed weapons Law less individuals, of course, not scrupulous In the future, however the gunmen of the Dominion apt to be less inclined to themselves by of the penal term they incur if they are caught with guns in their possession.

Hot Dogs of Another Breed.
(New York Herald-Tribune.)

"The Franks the Franks! They are upon us now" cried the hosts of the BasqueS at Roncevaux as Charlemanges legions turned to avenge the deaths of Roland and his peers, and residents of the hill towns of Connecticut may well echo their cry today as a united campaign is being under taken to abolish the vulgar hot dog and substitute in it's place the refined frank" Outraged by the brash implications of beach-resort cheapness latent in the popular of enrolled sausages," the Ltchfeld Hills Association asserts that it will not rest until every placard, pamphlet and other form of propaganda advertising the product is removed not alone from the Nutmeg State but from all New England and the name frank" established in it's place.
 However well intentioned such move may be, and there may be ample justification for it in the lovely countryside of midstate Connecticut, it is probable that the reformers who have charged themselves with this mission going to have their troubles. Hot dog" may be offensive, it may be slang, but it is pretty firmly established in the American vernacuar is almost universally accepted from Portland to Pasadena and, like "cop" or "fvver" would be hard phrase to eradicate from the national consciousness It's not the frankfurter and hot roll adequately suiced with mild mustard that the Ltchfeld association is against it's execu- tives emphasize; it is merely the name that they are against. Franks they think would suggest something pleasant Hike the Ritz bar or the French debt" That's all very well, but, even in the realm of panic and roadside delicacies if you give dog bad name it's pretty likely to stick

Real Generalization.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Cincinnati EnquirerD
 The order of President Roosevelt consolidating all farm credit agencies into the Farm Credit Ad- mnistration" is the Presidents first step in the direction of real centralizaton of governmental func tions It terminates certain powers of the con- sodated bureaus and places the remainder of them virtually in the hands of man, the Governor of the Farm Credit Administration.
 The consolidation should effect considerable saving by putting end to various overlapping bureaus But it does more.
 The costly and futile stablizaton operations of the Farm Board, which cost the Government ap- proximately s3500OO0OO ended by the order The Farm Board itself is in effect abolished all of its members except the Chairman losing out. The same is true of the Farm Loan Board.
 Functions of the Farm Loan Bureau the Farm Loan Board, the Department of Agriculture, the the Reconstruction Finance Corporation directed toward extending aid to farmers are transferred to the new Farm Credit Association.
 The first result of this consolidation, accord ing to the President, will be to save $20O0000, but important in his opinion will be the strength ening of the Government-supervised system of CO., operative agricultural credit
 It would appear that the consolidation will ac- complish the aim sought by MT. Roosevelt. It con- cenrates great power in the hands of one man. and at bold stroke sweeps aside the debris of several costly failures.

GREATEST CRISIS PASSES.

The banking crisis through which the countr passed last month was the greatest and most sever the nation ever has experienced, declares the Ma tional City Bank of New York, in it's current month ly publication devoted to economic and financis matters. It credits the sanity and co-operatio with which the people met the situation to tn decisive leadershipe of President Roosevelt In part the New York bank one of the larges in the world said
 The banking crisis which the United States has surmounted during March ceeded in magnitude and severity any other financial crisis the country has ever perienced, and the decsiveness with which leadership has been exercised and a tional discipline enforced has received uni versal acclaim. The crisis unified the coun- try; and with this unqualified support the Government struck to the heart of the panic, carrying through an economy measure vital to maintain confidence in the currency and undertaking general reconstruction of the banking system, for the purpose of surfing that general doubt of its solvency or ability to withstand the depression will not again arise.
 The strain has been a very severe one and in the complex economic system, where in credit is the bloodstream, the effects of throwing thousands of banks into liquida- ton reorganization by stroke of the pen are certain to be seriously disturbing. But the vigorous handling of the situation has encouraged everyone. There is good ground for believing that the country sustain the aftermath of the crisis better than it could sustain the continuous dis trust of credit which has exsrted a de- structive pressure upon business the past two years People are impressed by the view that such catastrophe usually brings on the climax of liquidation, and is

their regards for both Mrs. Leroi and Miss Samuelson.
 Convicted
 Mrs. Judd was convicted on Feb ruary 8, 1882, of the murder of Mrs. Agnes Anne Leroi, a former friend Although she was also un- der indictment for the murder of Miss Hedvig Samuelson, Mrs. Le- rois roommate, she was never tried on that count. At her trial Mrs Judd entered plea of insanity and did not testify in her own be- half. But, later, she said she had killed in self-defense, and attempt ed to duplicate Jack Halloran, a wealthy Phoenix lumberman, who. she said, had aided her in the dis position of the bodies of her vic tins. Halloran was cleared after he had been indicted as an accessory.
 The Testimony
 The actual killing of which Mrs. Judd was convicted, took place on October IT, 1881 According to the testimony, there had been bad feel ing between Mrs. Judd and the two women, who were to become her victims, for several days previ- ously. Halloran, according to Mrs Judd, was the bone of contention that introduced the discord that ended so tragically.
 The final showdown came when the three women met at breakfast They talked of Jack Halloran, and the discussion developed into a heated verbal battle, in the course of which Mrs. Judd threatened to tell Halloran ia secret about Mrs. Leroi. With that, according to the condemned woman's account, Miss Samuelson made a threat against Mrs. Judd, declaring that if she carried tales to Halloran I'll shoot you as sure as your name is Ruth Judd"
 Story Goes On
 Mrs. Judd then went to the kitchen, her story goes on, where Miss Sarnuelson followed her and menaced her with a gun. They struggled. Mrs. Leroi joined the fray, brandishing an ironing board. But Mrs. Judd got possession of the gun and shot Miss Samuelson, after which she turned the weapon on Mrs. Lieroi and killed her also.
 The Other Side
 However, the authorities found several discrepancies in this story. They proved to the satisfaction of the jury that the murders were committed the night before, and that the women were killed as they lay asleep. Furthermore, the State contended that the behavior of Mrs. Judd after the crime was not compatible with her plea of insanity. For the murderess had [disnae1naered one of the bodies of her victims, packed them in trunks and shipped them from Phoenix to Los Angeles, without detections

Cooperation and Pride in Home Town.
Fairbanks News-Miner.)

Before city accomplish much 1t must have teamwork. Its citizens must cooperate! They must show willingness to help one another and all work together for better city.
 The cities that going ahead the fastest are the that have shown this spirit of cooperation
 In many cities part of the citizens pull one way and part of them another, resulting in dislike and dstrust among the ones that should pull together.
 There is something good about everyone. If people know each other better they could pull to- gether better.
 Any city must sell itself to it's citizens before it can sell itself to it's neighbors.
 spirit of cooperation and pride in the home city must be instled into every thought and action of every individual in order to make their city better.
 A city must be awake to its opportunities and stay awake!
