 TO LIST.

Alfred E. Smith who manages the Empire Trust Building corporation and in his spare time edits the New Outlook, lately has added another job to his other numerous activities. He recently accepted a position as member of the Board of Directors and the company's agency committee of the New York Life Insurance Company. The famous New Yorker said he regarded service on the New York Life Board as distinct public service. He added:

Insurance-A Solid Industry.
Cincinnati Enquirer. )


 One of the largest industries of the nation is insurance After three years and half of contin- uing depression the great life insurance companies stand towers of strength supporting the economic fabric of the country The ravages of long de- fation have left them firm and unshakable because their investment policies. have been soundly con- |ceived and their new business has declined only in small proportion.
 The great legal companies some of them with assets of a billion dollars more, have lguded their enormous funds into railroad bonds, farm and urban mortgages and Government bonds. Not only have they thus made possible needed flow of investment into these channels of national growth, but they have found safe medium of Investment for themselves and so for their policy holders.
 In the light of this record. and in recognition of the staunch faith of the insurance executives in the future of the country it is proper to pay tribute to the leaders in this industry. With wisdom and skill they have proved to be public benefactors for the strength of their companies is interwoven with the structure of American ecoonmic life.
 Had they been seduced in thriving times by the lure of less conservative investments, had they in depression lost their confidence in the ultimate soundness of real estate and railways. the story might be different The major life insurance com panies have in fact been backlog of sound conservatism, a foundation for public confidence, through one of the most severe trials an economic system ever has encountered.

The Securities Snag.
(New York World-TelegramO

(New York World Telegraph
 There are ugly rumors concerning administration of the new securities act
 The Federal Trade Commission is engaged in writing regulations which will govern it in enforcing the act. Experience in the past has shown that no matter how excelently law may be drawn the regulations determine whether enforcement is effective is lax.
 People are still indignant sharp corporation practices which have fleeced them of millions of dollars They will not again invest money until they are reasonably sure they know what they are buying Only strict and honorable enforcement of the securities act can assure business the flow of money it will need in coming years.
 The Federal Trade Commission, we believe should be particularly scrupulous about calling in or consulting with those bankers whose practices recently disclosed by the Senate committee have Ishocked the American people
 The President of the United States who prom ised the people deal in securities should take searching look at what is happening in the Trade Commission and take whatever steps may be neces- Isary to save his excellent legislation from bureau cratic oblivion.

 He doesn't apply the same line of reasoning to the hatcheries for the benefit of sportsmen which number millions in this country. The take of game fish by sportsmen is tremendous The Government by the expenditure of relatively few thousands of dollars annually permit sport fishing on vast scale by the present generation of sportsmen and at the same time insure the privilege to future generations of the disciples of Isaak Walton.

Managed Patronage.
(New York Herald TribuneD

tNeW
 Postmaster General Farley, patronage dispenser extraordinary to the Roosevelt Administration has developed that important branch of politics almost to science He has adopted formulas and rules. He has gone so far to announce his code in a magazine article with typically Farley frankneSs. Under the patronage New Deal there should no longer be any question to just where every jobholder and would-be obholder fits into the pie ture If the system is carried out announced leach one will automatically fall into certain class- Ifcaton in accordance with his party standing and record It is designed to free the national chair man from any charge of playing favoriteS
 MT. Farley takes pains to declare that qualifica- ton for the work is the first requisite for appoint ments but falls short of saying that the best quail fled will win in every case. He puts 1t something like this: A Republican in an exempt job stands la chance of remaining if he is "a wizard in his own field" but he may well understand he has two strikes on him." If there is qualified Demo- lcrat out goes the Republican. No hypocrisy there. Nor is there any here:
 And among the Democrats who quail 1 fled who will get the first chance at the job? The F. R. B. C. men. That means the men who were flor Roosevelt Before Chi | cago" The Democrats who jumped on the | bandwagon later are next in line. If they | the best qualifed-they will get the JobS
 I don't think any master of patronage | has ever stated the proposition so frankly ! before.
 l Tammany Hall that it may sit in at the patronage table only after the "F R. B. C.'s" have had their | fill most discouraging prospect for Tammany, | but rather intelligent policy from the view point keeping people in line for President Roose- velt's renomination in 1886
 Then MT. Farley has worked out system Of having key men in various governmental depart ments responsible for seeing that the Democrats get as much of a New Deal 1t is possible to give them. There have been patronage men in this and that department in the past but they never have been co-ordinated and brought into a smooth-work- ing machine before The system now framed pro- Ivides that all patronage shall clear through the central organization of the national committee Mistakes and dsagreements will be rendered less frequent all of which is intended to help those who seek build up the Democratic Party politically and to keep it in power.

MOOSE TO PLAY
 BILLS TONIGHT

For the last time this season, the two lodge entries in the City League will m match wits and strength tonight on the ball dia- mond when the Moose and Elks play in the next to the final game on the schedule. If the Moose win they will hold half-game margin on the American Legion for the second half championship, and brighten the prospects of the usual Little Worlds Series. If they lose, then the Vets will have to lose to the Elks in the fi- nal game of the season for the Moose to stay in the picture. A victory for both the Vets and Moose will necessitate playoff game to determine the winner of the second half.
 Jack Schmitz is expected to do the pitching for the Paps. Joe Nello probably will heave for the Elks, although Erskine may be called.

If the starting of needfu public works
 is delayed because of cold weather, or if
 projects mark time until winter passes, much
 of the tonic effects of the public works
 program will be lost.
 This is the conclusion of F. w. Morse, President of the Producers Council Undoubtedly it is well considered and based upon knowledge of un- employment conditions throughout the country II the country is keyed up through the employment on public works of hundreds of thousands directly and indirectly it will lose the momentum thus acquired if they are thrown back into idleness through the closing down of public construction through the winter months
 There is no real reason, MT. Morse pointed out for such shut down. Experience, he declared has shown that there are few days in the winter when effective work cannot be done
 It has been definitely proved that, even
 in the severest winters. there are very few
 days-usuay less than two weeks-in which
 work cannot be done as well as in mid
 summer Indeed many contractors say their
 men do better work in the cold season. Tech
 ncaly there is no reason why work cannot
 go on in spite of weather
 That statement will not hold true for some parts of Alaska far as work in the open IS concerned After the freeZe-up comes to them, work on roao necessarily must suspend until the breakup. Bu there are sections of Alaska where work is possible practically all winter. In allocating funds for i'm mediate work the Government ought to be guided by that condition and select enough projects 1T the more temperate sections to furnish employment throughout the winter to Aasak's unemployed. IT that way the winter slump will be avoided, ant Alaskans will be able to earn. their daily breat rather than be forced to depend upon some form of charity for it.

KETCHIKAN OFFERED HATCHERY.

Following the recent announcement by Frank T. Bell United States Commissioner of Fisheries, that the fish hatchery at Yes Bay would be abandoned, the Chamber of Commerce of Ketchkan telegraphed a protest against that action and urged its opera tions be continued by the Bureau of Fisheries. The Commissioner promptly and courteously ac- knowledged the Ketchikan communication, and with great liberality offered to turn the plant over to the Chamber of Commerce there if it believed the At the latest hearing, the offer had not been accepted
 During his visit to this city, MT. Bell in an interview given The Empire first made known his program for shutting down a number of fish hatcheries all over the country including the two operated in Alaska. All of them have been main tained and operated for the benefit of commercial fisheries. T do not believe" he said in substance, that the United States Government owes it to the commercial interests engaged in fishing enterprises to plant their crops for them any than it ought to plant the wheat, and cotton crops of the farmers of the nation. Its hatchery opera tions for the benefit of commercial fisheries is nothing more less than subsidy. In Alaska, where the Government is in control of fisheries regulation we future fish crops by seeing to it that the supply of spawning fish is adequate to seed the beds. If shortages occur put on a few more regulations to curtail fishing until the supply is restored to a safe position"
 Probably Commissioner Bell did not expect Ket- chikan to take his offer of Yes Bay seriously. It
