of pupils. The present comparatively heavy bill TOT education that the Territory has to pay each oen- num reflects in some the increase.
 MT. Karnes did not intimate any change Tn policy in the future that would curtail the Indian enrolment. He had criticism of the policies of his predecessors which permitted the problem to arise. His suggestion is that the Federal Govern ment which acknowledges its educational responsi- bility for the Indians reimburse at least partly the costs wholly borne by the Territory.
 There is nothing startling about the idea It does not call upon Uncle Sam to do anything that he IS not already doing. tuition fee is paid to schools in the States usually to the counties, by the Office of Indian Affairs for Indians attending pubic schools It has been suggested to that organization before now, by The Empire for one, that 1t extend the policy to Alaska, if it had not the authority to do that, that it seek such authority from Con- gress. To date there has been no response.
 Commissioner Karnes proposes to go about the matter differently Cooperating with Delegate Dimond, an effort will be made to have Congress enact legislation to remedy the situation Such leg islation should appeal to all Alaskans, whether Indian or white No serious objection should come from any other source

KEEP CHRISTMAS oLD-FAsHIONED

In these days of experiments in new ways of government in the seeking for new avenues Of escape from troubles economic, financial and politi- cal it is q welcome relief to pause for even so brief a snaoe as one day and feel deep relief for one institution that remains unchanged in it's essential
 principles and it's basic methods of observance such all institution is Christmas.
 Primarily religious holiday, it has become pre- eminent among an the notable days set apart on the calendar This is true in many countries where no religious basis for it exists. Universally, the season is marked by revival of the spirit of love for ones fellows, of peace of goodwill to the world Tn the whole atmosphere Of the occasion there is warmth link with the past, relaxation from conflict and criticism that wins smiling ap- proval from everyone.
 Tn world of blunt facts we are more and more compelled to be controversial and severe in cur thinking and actions But, happily, there are times-and Christmas is first among these-when all may put aside the rigors of disciplined logic, when everyone may forget the gravity of their problems and the worlds troubles and lose them selves in the enjoyment of rich tradition of good cheer and contentment. Let us keep Christmas as il is and has been, and never modernize it. For it is a period of charm and generosity in year of hurry ana strain and drab activities
 Merry Chismasp is a greeting that sounds round the globe It never pals It is pleasant today as it was when it was first coined. It embodies the meaning of the whole day, the love of homes and fresde the contentment of reunited families. the joy of children over the visit of Saint Nicholas the beauty of the tree with its lights and gltterng tinsels and it's heaped up gifts; the singing of carols and old familiar hymns; the oounties of the festive board in home and inn; the friendness of one for another which makes neighbor live word instead of empty phrase; the happ- ness that creates in the desire that everyone be happy too
 So as in the past, today The Empire greets its subscribers in Juneau and in all other places with it's customary Merry Christmas May it be every thing you desire. May it bring you real peace lasting contentnent, and genuine happiness.

Paying the Debts.
(Omaha World -Herald.)

No that know of in responsible place is demanding that the debtor be permitted to pay with worthless dollars Certainly the President is not The demand is simply that the debtor be per- mitted to pay with dollars worth about the same the dollars he borrowed.
 If the farmer were allowed to meet his creditor, the business and industralist their creditors, with dollars bigger than those they went into debt for, not many farms would be fore closed, not many businesses be facing bankruptcy. If prices were such that they could carry and employ labor at reasonable profit the debt problem would sink to normal proportions. Out of the profits the debts would be paid, because of profits enterprise would flourish and the creditors would get all too which they entitled.
 And that as we see, is the of the whole excited discussion

 From Bible to modern bulletins human interest makes the strongest appeal to emotion
 Tucked away in the less important news columns of daily paper read of an old man-an old time fidder-who picked up his violin, struck up the sweet old tune, Home, Sweet Home" only to pause, totter and with loosened fingers, fall to the floor dead-dying the wings of melody, so to speak.
 He didn't mean anything to the great world beyond his environment but his soul in tune with eternal harmonies He knew the poetry of home-au it's tender appeal and sweet influence as countless other great and obscure people have known In his way he was voicing all the gentle ness, all the struggle, all the faith ambition and loyalty of the men and who fill the homes of hfe-the laughter of children the voices of hap piness at the wedding feast, with it's melodies of promise and of hope-the tears and toling bells which come when loved go outward leaving existence chill and gray-empty but for the con- soations of faith and memory.
 It that the great Remenyi died died on the stage, with sobbing note from of his matchess melodies breathing the requiem of one of the mmortals Perhaps the old fiddler of an obscure Oregon village and the great master of the echoing violin may find companionship some where the infinite reaches of that harmony which enrches with glory and splendor of the heavens and the aching aisles of earth-the stars of the and the songs of the seas

STILL HOPE FOR FLOOD
 PROJECT APPROVAL

That there is still reasonable ground for hope that the Fly der flood control project may be authorized by the Public Works Administration is indi- cated by Alaska Delegate to Congress A. J. Dimond in a let ter to the Herald.
 Writing under date of Oct tober 4, the Delegate stated that there had been no change in the status of the local pro- ject, adding, which does not mean, of course, that approv- al will not finally be given"
 Washington reports from oth- CT sources indicate that scarce ly more than a dozen flood control projects of any magni- tude have so far been author ized by the Administration, which apparently intends to leave such matters until the general building program is completed.

 Declaring the proposal to be thoroughly sound" and call ing upon President Roosevelt to adopt it, Green said:
 "A President who has shown his scorn of tradition and v-orn- out customs should find t.ois proposal interesting and ailur- ing. l hope he finds it worth a broad-scale trial"
 Declaring there is still plenty of gold in the hills of we1l-de- fined placer regions, Green added:
 "Prospectors will find it, pan it or dig it, and turn it into the channels of commerce, to back up credit to many times its val ue, to feed those who mine it and to relieve communities or unemployed workers.
 Newly fledged placer min- CTS, barring some lucky strike. will not get rich, but they will gain a wealth of renewed faith in themselves and their coun- try"

Delegate To Seek Advance
 Of Alaska Election Date

A bill which Delegate Dim- ond will endeavor to have passed as speedily as possible when the second session of the 73rd Congress convenes will be one advancing the date of the Alaska election, says Wash ington, D. C., report.
 Since approval of the last amendment to the Constitutinn does away with flame duck" sessions of Congress and pro- vidas for the meeting of that body in January instead of March, it will be necessary to hold the election in A 'aska considerably earlier than ir the past in order to certify the election of the Delegate by January. It is probable that the bill will provide fer the election to be held in Septem- Der; in which event it will mean that considerably more votes will be cast, as many electors will be in the Territory in September who would have gone south in November.

Large Ore Body Located
 On United Empire Group

Reports from Stewart indi- cate that an ore body 13 feet wide and heavily mineralized with galena has been opened up on the United Empire prop erty. as a result of recent de- Velopment activities carried on under the direction of Wm. Damn, managing director.
 The ore is said to run high in silver, in addition to carrying substantial values in gold and other metals.
 The company is making ex- tensive preparations for win ter operations. Quantities of lumber from the Hyder saw mill have been sent up to the property this week and a sur vey IS being made for an aer- ial tramway. The company is also reported preparing to in stall a two-machine compress or. The development plans are said to contemplate tie driving of a long crosscut tun- nel during the winter season.

development in Yukon.

ueVelOpment Tn YuK0n.
 Through Northern British Columbia the road would have to negotiate high mountain passes. Very large sums would be required each year to open it up, repair damage done by the winters snow and run-off each spring. How long would it be open each year? Possibly three months. Not ali of June. The snow on the passes would be to deep. Bridges on those mountain streams would need constant replacement. July, August and part of September is about all we could hope for. How many would travel it? At the risk of being called a pessimist I cannot picture any great concourses of million aires heading North with their limousines, scattering t h r money to Yukoners along the way. More likely a thin line of tin lizzies with camp equip ment, people hanging onto their nickels and dimes, and camping by the roadside.
 No great crowds of people would take a chance on a trip like that unless they had a much better road than $16,- 000,000 could build over such an extent of such country. If there was a reasonable chance of getting a return on the mon- ey or of bringing about a great development by such expendit- uer, the government might con- sider it, but they can't be stampeded by any ballyhoo from Seattle, Fairbanks or Dawson"

Boat Sinks; Election Party
 Has Trying Experience

Forced to hurried escape in a rowboat from the sinking Stewart moterboat Ellen off Halibut Bay while enroute from Stewart to Anyox last Monday morning, an election campaign party headed by w. J. Asseltine, of Premier, Lib eral candidate for the British Columbia Legislature, and in cluding Howard Campbell and Donald McAuley, succeeded in reaching an uninhabited, wind swept shore, where, with Ern- ie Lewis, owner of the Ellen, they remained unsheltered in fog and rain until picked up by the Union steamship Catala, enroute to Stewart, late Mon- day afternoon.
 After leaving Stewart late Sunday night, the Ellen wa; said to have struck some sub merged obstacle, probably a log, while proceeding down Portland Canal some 50-odd miles south of Hyder and set tied so rapidly that the party had barely enough time to es- cape to shore in a little two- man rowboat carried on board the larger vessel before the Ellen was submerged. The es- cape of the party was said to have been rendered still more precarious by reason of the small boat leaking badly.
 After landing on the beach the party built a fire and man. aged to keep fairly comfort able despite the indictment weather until their fire was observed by the passing Catala, which stopped to investigate and picked them up. On ar irving here the campaigners were none the worse for their experience and proceeded to Prince Rupert on the rescue ship to continue the campaign.

COMMISSIONER BLACK
 NOT ENTHUSIASTIC
 ABOUT BIG HIGHWAY

WuCH Ol T6luIu lTOIH con- struction of the proposed Inter- national Highway to Alaska ; that British Columbia cannot bear the cost of the undertak- ing; that there is no possibility of the Dominion government putting $16,000,000 into it, and that the Canadians cannot be stampeded in that direction by ballyhoo from Seattle and Fair banks or Dawson, were state ments forming the highlights of Discovery Day speech made in Dawson by Hon. George Black, Speaker of the Canadian House of Commons and chair man of the Canadian commiss- ion appointed to examine into the highway proposal in coll aboration with the American international highway com mission. As quoted in press reports, MT. Black referred to the project in the following terms:
 There is a matter I would like to refer to very briefly on this occasion and that is the proposed extension of the Pa cific Highway through British Columbia and Yukon. I am told it has been said I am op- posed to the project. I am not opposed to it, but I am opposed to jumping into any important undertaking entailing the ex- penditure of large sums of the taxpayers money without look ing the facts and conditions squarely in the face.
 "As a Yukoner, I say, if the heavily burdened taxpayers of Canada are willing to dig down farther and produce the money to not only build, but maintain the road, l am all for it. If we people of Yukon had to finance it ourselves and pay for its up- keep it would never be built.
 "A fairly careful estimate of the cost of building a dirt road north through British Columbia to the southern border of Yu- kon is S12,000,000. Where could British Columbia get the money? Do you think the peo- pie of British Columbia want to put it up? British Columbia is one of the four western prov inces which the Dominion gov ernment is carrying.
 "An estimate of the cost of building through Yukon is $4,- 000,000. Have we got it? Where is Yukon to get that money? Shall we tax our selves for it? don't hear any loud cheers at that suggestion. There is no possibility of the Dominion government putting $16,000,000 in the undertak- ing at present.
 If we are honest we can't say the road is badly needed. There is no likelihood of the road opening up any mineral

Safety For Bank Deposits

One of the fortunate events of the last
minute scramble in Congress before adjourn
ment was the agreement for passage of the
Glass-Steagall bank bill. This legislation is
intended to serve three important purposes
to safeguard deposits, limit speculation and
unity the eountrys banking system. OF
these, present interest is mainly in the first
purpose.
Bank deposits up to $500 in all ap-
proved banks will be insured starting the
first of next year, and the permanent insur-
ance plan will go into effect six months
later. Under the permanent plan. deposits
will be fully guaranteed up to $4,000 to
$4,000 and one-half above that With.
out deposit insurance, people would be long
regaining their confidence in banks. 1t
should serve to stop boarding and put bill
lions into profitable use again.

The New Frontier Challenge

/ One of the reasons why America always
came out of its 10Th century depressons
50 completely was that it always had a
frontier awaiting development. When in
dustrial stagnation in the East had reached
a certain point. the country could turn
West. roll up its sleeves and proceed to pull
another section of the frontier into the fold.
Before it got through it discovered that the
depression was gone. No one needs to be
told today that the old frontier is no more.
\ We haven't any vast undevelored spaces
along the western horizon any longer:
none, at least. that we can use just now.
But we have new frontier these days. if
we only stop to recognize it and it can
serve us today precisely as the old western
frontier served us generation or two ago.
Our new frontier is less tangible than the
old ones and you won't find it on any
map. 1t includes practically all of industry
and nearly all of agriculture. The pioneers
who are attacking it are the workers. the
farmers. and the businessmen of the United
States. Their map, still bit rough and
uncertain, in spots, is the combined indus
trial recovery and farm relief program. 1t

of this stands as new frontier. The old,
physical frontier represented an obstacle to be
conquered. new paths to be found, jobs to
be filled, daring decisions to be made with
new space in which men and women could
establish homes, bring up children, and
hunt for happiness as the prize. This new
frontier represents exactly the same thing,
& It is a challenge, just as the old one was,
to our daring our ingenuity, and our en-
duranee. Beyond it there lies nothing less
than new order of living waiting to be
exploited The possibilities are as un-
limited as any that an early pioneer saw
when he climbed an UNEMPLOYED mountain
peak and looked off to the West. The pres
ent moment is the end of a depression, but
it is also something more important 1t is
the beginning Of new era. The future
can be finer than anything in our past has
been, if we just recognize our new frontier
and tackle it as frontier should be
tackled.
