AL. WEATHERS ORDERS FIRST-AID TANKS FOR
 STORM RESCUE WORK

Storm -bound people will not be in danger of starving to death be- fore storms subside and boats are able to land if Capt. Al Weathers's water tight first-aid tanks work as well as he expects them to.
 After a difficult trip with his boat the Ace, under charter to A. J. Goodwin, machinist at the Juneau Lumber Mills, last Sunday when they attempted to take sup plies to Mrs. Goodwin and her two children at their ranch on Rocky Island, Capt. Weathers planned a first-aid tank that could be landed in stormy weather without diff culty The Ace made the trip to Rocky Island Sunday in spite of the storm that was raging, but was unable to land until Monday morning.
 Capt. Weathers, in Juneau today from his ranch at Fritz Cove, ord cred four reinforced galvanized tanks which will be made by Mac Metcalfe of Rice and AhlerS. They will be large enough to hold blankets and weeks supply of food, medicine and firearms and ammunition if necessary. When storms are too severe to allow a boat to land, it will be possible to send tank ashore by line with first-aid.

 Naturally the world cannot but regard Berlins latest attitude with skepticism more than mild The brusquesness of Germanys departure from the League and the conference was typcaly tactless, coming as it did when the British and Americans thought bridging formula between the French and German desires had been evolved. The Nazi demand for equality in and world place" for Ger many seemed to offer insurmountable obstacle to further progress The blow to disarmament hopes came most cruelty after all the arduous efforts set forth, particularly by the United States under President Roosevelts leadership. Seemingly with Germany out the rest of the world have to start all again. It is possible that disarmament program could be drafted without Germany but to some, France especially, that might not seem prudent
 That is the situation that has confronted the Geneva delegates. Patiently, their work was at an end for the present If Germany's new approach means anything, when they re-assemble in Decem- ber something may be accomplished But the Relch will have to display wholly different spirit than that it showed at the outset If it does not, then Europe will have to go it's way for the time being for the United States cannot at this time entertain any thought of mixing in a situation as dangerous as that which will prevail if Hitler's demands re- main unchanged.

ANOTHER JOB FOR THE DELEGATE.

A few days ago, Attorney General Cummings announced though the Eighteenth Amend ment be repealed, is practically certain, Alaska, Hawaii and the District of Columbia will still be victims of National Prohibition despite the fact that it would be more. He said, in effect, the District of Columbia and the Territories are subject to the laws passed by Congress; after the Eighteenth Amendment is repealed, probably on December 5, the National Prohibition, volstead, Act will still be on the countrys statute books; until it is repealed the Nations capital and the two Territories mentioned will be subject to it.
 Without wishing to question the soundness of the Attorney Generals reasoning, the logic of that posi- tion seems queer. The National Prohibition Act was not passed by Congress in its role as special law making body for the District of Columbia Alaska, of Hawaii It is a general law that was enacted for the entire country. It was passed to make the Eighteenth Amendment effective and without that amendment Congress had no power to pass such legislation. Maybe it does not necessarily follow that it will fall to the ground when the Eighteenth Amendment is repealed, but to the lay mind it appears proper and right that it should do so.
 The opinion of the Attornel General is blow to Alaska It means that Delegate Dimond has double task on his hands when Congress convenes next January. Instead of having to get only the Alaska Bone Dry Law repealed, he will have to assist in getting the Volstead Act wiped out also. That the sentiment in Alaska for repeal is over whelming cannot be questioned. By an almost un- animous vote, the local Legislature twice has gone on record for it. In 1881, it memorialzed Congress to repeal the Alaska Bone Dry Law In 1883, it passed an act repeating it, though some of the members had serious doubts to it's validity. Since then the law has been held invalid the Federal District Court of the Third Division holding that Congress alone has the power to repeal.
 Delegate Dmond already has bill before the House Committee Territories to that end. It should be given early consideration by that body, and reported favoraby to the House for acton before its calendar becomes too congested for action It should not take long to get action repealer to the Vostead Act, since every member of Congress will have an interest in such legislation.

The Return to Antarctica.
(NeW York Times.)

The second Byrd expedition to the Antarctic, which made definite start with the sailing of the 11000ton freighter Jacob Ruppert should reach the Bay of Whales before Christmas in the Summer season, when explorations can be made by plane or with dogs and motor traction Admiral Byrd takes with him two-engned seaplane of gross weight of more than 17000 pounds and autogiro for light work In embarkng on the new venture he says
 I eager to get back to Little
 America than I was to see the North Pole
 or to fly the Atlantic. There has been
 nothing in my life so far that has given
 the thrill expect when l see the two planes
 and the food and fuel caches we left in
 Little America in 1930
 Sir Douglas Mawson, after returning from an Antarctic expedition of privation and painful memories, had for time desire to the White Continent again, but the fever back and he strained at the leash, it were, to expose himself to the same perils and hardshps So it is with Admiral Byrd. He is confident that he will make new discoveres and that science will be the gainer from the researches of his little band of specialists It is his purpose to fly beyond the Pole far enough to determine whether Antarctca is really continent or two great bodies of land, and whether it's mountain chains a continuation of the cordlera of South America, to map territory never before seen, and to make intensive study of meteorological conditions Recognizing that his scientists can get closer to nature and obtain better results in geology etc., by sled work he will take no less than one hundred and fifty dogs with him. Following the example of other polar ex- plorers, Scott, Shackleon and Mawson for instance secondary bases will be established. Admiral Byrds large and varied equipment signifies an ambition to write his name still higher asa polar explorer. He will have rival in the field, a countryman Lincoln Ellsworth, and competition, at least in settling the question of continental unity, is to be expected. It is the intention of Admiral Byrd to broadcast his adventures and discoveries after pass ing through the Panama Canal and entering the Pacific. weekly report from Little America is lon the program

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-"TOo
much tennis"
That is the laconic explanation
of Ellsworth Vines, jr., U. S.
champion, for Americas defeat
by Great Britain in the Davis
Cup interzone final at Paris.
The tall Pasadena, Cal, youth
returned from Europe yesterday
with three other members of the
team-Wilmer Allison, George
Lott and John Van Ryn-and
Bernon S. Prentice, non-playing
captain.
Vines said he thought he and
Allison and Van Ryn had seen
entirely too much competition
this year, starting with their tour
of Australia and New Zealand
last winter.
Received No Offers
The American champion said
he had received no offers to turn

In an official statement Prentice
said:
eve have no excuses to offer,
but the highest praise for a
great British team led by Perry
and Austin at their best, whose
games were perfectly adjusted
to a slow court surface"
In the latter connection, the
squad feels it will have a much
better chance next year on the
turf courts at Wimbledon.

Keith Gledhill, Vines doubles
partner, also returned and they
will compete in the Eastern grass
