 Could Cut Expenditures
 It was his judgment, he said, that the Territory could administer the fisheries for one quarter of what it has been, costing. He again emphasized the opposition that Delegate Dimond would encounter in his effort to get the measure passed.
 However, he asserted, one source of opposition that he. himself, had encountered, would not be thrown against MT Dimond.
 Thank God we have got a Gov ernor who is in favor of it, and am going to support him." he declared emphatically.
 Tt is a measure of Home Rule that ought to have been adopted long ago"
 i@ Roden Defends Bill
 MT. Roden defended the bill briefly He asserted that the time had not come to discuss how the Territory. could administer the fish, cries. The bill merely extended to the Territory the right to do so. It would rest with the Legislature to say when and how it should be done.
 MT. Connors declared that long distance control had driven the fishing boats of the Indians off the waters of Alaska, from an occupation that had given them livings for ages, and put them on the beaches to starye.
 He pointed out that there are now 10000 children in Alaskan educational institutions and soon they would be graduating at the rate of 1000 annually. Whats all this for, what's the use? If we cannot administer our resources in our own interests and for the fu ture generations what is the use of us staying here?" he asked.
 Scientific Work Untouched
 MT. Anderson told the Chamber that the scientific work of the Federal Government, costing some $50,000 annually, would continue to be done by it. It does a similar work throughout the entire coun- try. The; Territory would not be required to duplicate it. and ex- penditures for that class of activity would not have to come out of the Territorial treasury asas.4-
 J. E. Pegues closed the discussion by maintaining that during normal business periods the Territory could finance administration costs without difficulty He cited figures from official sources showing annual cash balances in the Territorial treasury ranging from $600,000 to some $850000. Had the Territory OCCAl III OOllOlOl Ol bllC lCS during those years, it could have expended just as much money as the Federal Government did and still had healthy balances on hand.
 Since 1929, he pointed out, busi- ness and industry have been sub normal Naturally the cash re- sources of the Territory have de- creased. Improvement has already started. Indications point to re- turning prosperity for the fisheries and when they prosper the Terri tory does. Lack of finances, he contended, had not been establish ed and fear of it ought not to be allowed to prevent endorsement and support of the measure by the Chamber.

Immunity and the Law.

The question Of congressional i'm
munity has again come forward in a
local case, involving the accusation Of
member of the House Of Representa-
tives of assault in connection with a
dispute over q radio. There Is no
ground for doubt or the score Of the
status Of the accused. in respect to the
complaint, regardless of the circum-
stances. He may be taken to court just
as any other person who IS charged
with an illegal action.
The Constitution of the United States
provides that Senators and Repre-
sentatives shall In all cases, except
treason, felony and breach of the peace.
be privileged from arrest during their
attendance at the session Of their re-
spective houses, and In going to and
returning from the same" This plainly
means that such members Of the Con-
gress may be arrested for breach Of the
peace, here or elsewhere, even during
the session of the Congress.
The immunity clause in the Constitu-
ton was designed to prevent the inter-
ruption Of the services Of the legislators
by means of arrests without warrant in
respect to their personal conduct, to
insure the proper functioning Of the
legislative chambers. It was intended

Cotton.
FROM the Charlotte Observer.

The people are going to hear more
about cotton this year than during any
past year in history, and the women
are going to wear more and prettier
dresses than ever before. for the tex
tile designers have brought forth prod
ucts to the market that shunt silk aside.
Cotton week" IS to be . notable event
and the storekeepers are awake to the
opportunities. The biggest boost to
nual style show" at the State College,
at Raleigh, which has grown into IN
institution that attracts national at
tention. Two hundred college girls
participate this year, all wearing
dresses made by themselves and Of
fabrics designed by the students at the
Textile School. DR.. Tom Nelson ad-
vises that this year eight colleges are
participating and that Is young women
whose homes range from New York
City to Brazil, In South America, will
model variety of dresses, suits, coats
and sports costumes In attractive colors,
every one of which was made from
fabrics produced by State College stu
dents.
Meantime, at 572 Madison avenue, in
New York. . cotton dress goods exposi-
ton is going on by fashion group"
that Is making the city take notice.
Many new fields are being opened up
for high style cotton goods and the Du
Pont de Nemours people come to the
front with information Of development
of new outlet for thousands Of yards
of cotton cloth; and significant OF the
signs Is an almost complete stoppage
of imports Of japanese cotton cloths.

professional instructors In the art OF
piano playing must locate their studios
and schools elsewhere than IN the
residential" zones Of the Capital. The
case develops from complaints against
the almost continuous sound Of piano
exercises emanating from q dwelling
in such o zone. Heretofore, although
protests have occasionally been made
by residents on this score, no action
has been taken. Now the matter is to
be tested.
II this order Is sustained and the
use of the piano by pupils in teach
ing establishment is rated as nuisance
unsuited to a residential area. on the
ground that the teaching of the use
of that instrument Is a business, there
will probably be a considerable NOV
ing about Of instructors. And by the
same token it may become incumbent
upon the Commissioners to act in the
matter of the nuisance Of the radio
that is kept blaring at high pitch at
all hours Of day and night in the very
heart of the residential district.
As between the constant sound Of
a piano manipulated by either expert
or inexpert fingers and the roaring
radio there Is little choice, as respects
the peace and comfort of those af-
flicted with the sounds. Piano teach
ing as q business and immoderate radio
reception as q diversion are not ma
terially different as respects the effect
upon the nervous systems of those
within range. The order just issued
to the conductor of piano school,
assuming its effectiveness, gives some
hope to the multitude of victims of the
cacophony of sounds emitted from
loud speakers from early morning until
past midnight.

A Chicago Land Experiment
rom the Providence Journal.

from the fIovloence JOURNAL
Students of sociology-And that
means most Of us nowadays-should
be interested IN . plan proposed for
taking care Of the larger portion Of
the 100000 people In Cook County. Ill
The plan embodies a PROPOSAL. in con-
nection with the anticipated passage
of . State housing act by the Legisla-
ture, to "colonize" families on half-acr
plots Of ground within 80 miles Of the
downtown section Of Chicago, In local.
tiles where the soil Is rich enough to
produce good food crops. The families
would be quartered in comfortable
houses to be built under the provisions
Of the contemplated legislative act
Back Of the plan, we are told, Is q
careful study carried on for several
months and centering In similar plan
that has been successfully employed
in many German industrial centers.
As proposed In Chicago, the cost Of
Quitting . family with . house, q
half-acre Of land, a poultry and hog
house, plumbing. septic tank and
other necessary facilities, would be
$2,700. The scheme is called a social
engineering undertaking" and is calcu-
lated by its promoters to meet the
needs Of the longtime unemployed in
the Nations second largest city, who
are likely to continue without jobs for
larger part Of the year over An in
definite period. One expected advan-
tage Is the fact that the colonized
households would remain within a short
distance Of the city. to their own and
the city's benefit. If they were settled
at q long distance from Chicago they
would be less able to avail themselves
Of part or full time employment oppor-
tunities there, and ct the same time
would by their removal outside the
metropolitan area disastrously affect
the city's economic interests.
Each enterprise of this kind must
be judged on its individual merits. but
the Chicago plan Is the result of pains
taking inquiry and consideration, and
its progress will be sympathetically
noted.

Van Dyke as Beloved Figure
Put Among Americas Great

A further thought as to the future
fame Of Van Dyke Is voiced by the San
Antonio Express: He was another
Ixaak Walton; If tickle fame shall do
him full Justice, he will have his niche
beside the angler Of Stafford. He y
more the master Of prose, more the
poet, more the artist; he shows a more
vivid sense Of what is going on about
him IS he angles for trout and keener
eye for detail. Though clergyman BY
profession, he is less q moralist and
more q humanist than Walton. And
out Of the quiet words. the smooth
flowing river and the blue sky above,
Henry Van Dyke has evolved philos-
ophy as serene: The best hope we can
have Is that God smiles at US as We
do at our small children"

Legislative license is intolerable and

committed it should result in the same
measure Of penalty that would be &C
corded to any other offender, whatever
