VIVID RECORD
 BEING SPREAD
 OUT TO PUBLIC
Men Prominent in Public Life Are Favored by
 Financing House
DEALS OF BANKING
 FIRM DISCLOSED
Billions of Dollars Worth of Securities Shown to
 Have Been Sold

WASHINGTON, May 25.-Furth- CT evidence on the Morgan and Company's bestowal of millions in paper profits to favored customers is sought by the Senate investi- gators. They have already spread on the record many names while Morgan watched the names of other men high in the public life appear, men made beneficiaries of the great firms bounty through sales to them below the price paid by the public.
 The Alleghany Corporation is- sue of 1929 was shown up today.
 Beneficiaries
 Among the men benefiting from Morgans favors are present Sec- retary of Treasury Woodin, United States Senator McAdoo, Newton D. Baker. Justice Owen J. Robers, Su- preme Court Justice; Col Charles A. Lindbergh, John J. Raskob, Gen. John J. Pershing and many others.
 Secretary woodin had no com ment but Senator Borah said the people are entitled to a Secretary of the Treasury, who like Ceasar's wife, should be above suspicion.
 Morgan himself admitted he paid no taxes here but paid income taxes in England in 1881 and 1892.
 More Evidence
 The gigantic sweep Of the brsi- ness of Morgan and Company was vividly portrayed today by evidence it sold six billion, twenty four mill lion dollars worth of securities to the public since the war days of which more than two billion have been retired. George Whitney, partner of Morgan, made the statement.
 Whitney said he made Sl46,000 profit on the sale of 14,000 shares of Alleghany stock he was es- pecially allowed to purchase through the firm.
 McAddo's Statement
 Senator McAdoo denied today he was preferred client of Morgan and Company but he said he lost $2,500 on three purchases but made $4,900 on 500 shares of Alleghany stock he was allowed to buy.
 The late Calvin Coolidge was shown as a privileged purchaser of 5000 shares of Standard Brands" stock after he left the Presidency.
 As the name of Norman H. Davis was spread before the investigators, Senator Robinson, of Indiana, ask ed if Davis was representing the House of Morgan in Europe. Davis is now Special Ambassador attend ing the disarmament conference in Geneva.
 Morgan, explaining whey he paid English income tax and none in the United States, said it was be- cause of a difference in the laws of the two countries.

CHAMBER HOLDS OFF ACTION ON FISH TRANSFER.
Hears Extended Argument on Dimond Home Rule
 Bill-Defers Action

The Chamber of Commerce today opened it's consideration of Dele gate Dimond's bill to transfer the control of the fisheries resources over to the Territory, but postponed action on it until next week or even later. The measure relative to the transfer of control of the game and fur-bearers was not dis cussed.
 Only two members discussed the fisheries measure. H. L. Faulkner, who as chairman of the Legisla- tive Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the bill be disapproved and whose rec ommendation was followed by the Board by a three to two vote, ar gued against endorsement, and J. E. Pegues, Managing Editor of The Empire, urged that the Cham Der approve the bill.
 Lack of Funds
 MT. Faulkner declared that the movement is both political and in- wolves a question of economies. It was not a partisanly political issue, since both Democratic and Repub- lican parties have committed them selves to local control of resources. It is political in the sense that candidates for office and politi- cal leaders use it to obtain support at the polls He declared that up to two or three years ago the pres ent Delegate was opposed to the transfer and said he believed he would thank the Chamber now if it opposed the enactment of the Bill
 The Federal Government, he pointed out, now pays all of the expenditure Of the administration of the fisheries and the Territory gets all of the revenue. This situa- tion, he asserted, is an ideal one for the Territory. Local control Of local resources, he added, is a very fine sentiment put poor economy.
 Cost Is High
 He secuted the claim that the TerritorS could administer the fish cries at a lesser cost than has been done by the Federal Govern ment. The average annual cost of administration, he said, over the past five years has been about $425, ,OOO. He questioned the ability of the Territory to lower that fig ure materially.

Well, "it" arrived in Juneau.

Well, "it" arrived in Juneau.
 Everybody seems to be happy about it except about two thirds of the population that has been cheated out of that one hour caus- ed by advancing the clock that period of time to effect daylight saving.
 And at that, business seemed to go right on perking, despite the sleepy-eyed appearance of the above mentioned two-third population.
 And there is no chance to get back that lost hour until next September 24-then, oh, boy-what a grand and glorious feeling.
 The turning of the clocks ahead one hour at midnight was not without some queer instances, the following which will be appreciated by all except certain three per- sons:
 Father Started Something
 The father of one household in
 
 Juneau, retires about 10 o'clock at night for he goes on early shift at the Alaska Juneau mill. When this certain father prepared to re- tire last night, he pushed the clock ahead the one hour. Mrs. Juneau retired one hour later-and she pushed the clock ahead one hour. Bobby Juneau came home about midnight-or thought it was-and he took the minute hand and spun it around.

 GREAT PANIC
Two Carloads of Hoodlums Race Down Avenue
 Splitting Gunfire

NEW YORK, May 25. = Two women, one perhaps fatally wound- ed, were struck down in a street skirmish that threw Broadway into shrieking panic.

 Two men, trailing blood, tumbled out of the auto and limped quickly away.
 Sadie Fortune, aged 45, walking down Broadway, was hit in the back by the bullets and her condi- tion is critical
 Irene Savage, aged 24, was wounded in the shoulder.

ant vices. The happiest man is not
the one who is eXhilarated by mar
cotic drinks, but he who lives at
his best. right with God and man,
busily engaged in the task of MAX
ing the world a better place IN
which to live.
". II. but put ye on the Lord
Jesus Christ, and make not provis-
ion for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts
thereof" The grand cure of intem-
perance and all sins is Christian
character, the Lord Jesus Christ in
the heart; the supreme purpose of
every man ought to be that OF MAX
ing himself the highest possible
character, which is nothing short of
effecting such close relation with
God through Jesus Christ, as to fuse
his spirit with ours so that we
naturally think his thoughts and
manifest his life in thought and ac-
ton; one with such a purpose has
no place in his program for making
dominant anything that satisfies the
physical.
V. Z. "For none of us liveth to
himself and none dieth to himself"
Here is a general principle, the
basis for many good laws. One may
crash a traffic light if he considers
only himself, but social and physical
welfare demands that the false free
dom of doing as one pleases cannot
be applied in traffic rules.
V. 8. "For whether we live, we
live unto the Lord; or whether we
die, we die unto the Lord; whether
we live therefore or die, we are the
Lords" The ultimate objective is
such close relationship with Christ
that we not only recognize him as
Lord and Saviour, but he owns us as
his very own. This is not social
aristocracy, but something far bet
ter, being the child of a king. When
this relation is fixed, the ruling
principle of conduct is. "Will this
thing p1ease Christ 2"

On the other hand, the kingdom of
God consists of duties which rise

Duties come from the right inner

Protestant churches of the United
States in 1882, were $378,000,000,
according to a recent study made
for the conference of the promo
tional executives of the leading de-
nominations. These contributions
were approximately 406 lower than
in 1929, as compared with a larger
drop of $40 in the national in
come during the same period. The
study shows that the total share of
the churches in the national income
during any period was not quite
10. AS matter of fact the church.
es did not share in the special
growth of national income during
the boom years; on the contrary in
some instances it actually declined.
The expenditures for recreation
have declined since 1929, $50.

Making \ Fome-Centcred Life

Making Fome-CenfeFed Life
If family religious education is to
be effective, our family life must be
home-centered enough to have a
group spirit. We cannot teach ideas
without loyalty to the group which
stands for ideals.
Arthur Hale wants to teach his
son Robert to be an honest man and
to honor the family name. How can
he impress upon his son that all
Hales are honest? How can he
make him feel that none of the
Hales would ever forge a check or
raise a note or take a dishonest
dollar, unless the boy comes to be-
lieve that the Hale name is really
worth honoring.
With a strong group spirit in the
home, there naturally follows a fam
lily pride of honor and fidelity. The
members Of the family must love
each other and love each other
enough to live together, play togeth-
er, work together and sometimes to
pray together, or how can they be
taught the honest, loving life Of the
children?-D. Carl Yoder.

Romans 13: :12-14; 14:7-21, for
Sunday, Oct. 20:
All the Sunday schools of the
world are supposed to study this
worlds temperance lesson tomor-
row. The Bible does not usually
single out particular sins and vices
and give them separate treatment,
it rather treats them as branches OIL
a common root, and it is this root
that it is after. However, all vices
and virtues are woven together, SO
that every virtue is friend of tenn
nerance and every vice is an ally OF
intemperance.
v. II. "The night is far spent,
and the day is at hand; let us
therefore cast off the works OF dark
ness and let us put on the armor OF
light Spiritual sleep is one of the
dangers of the Christian life. Moral
and religious progress calls for
Christians that are wide awake;
giant forces are slumbering in the
church; if these forces we're awake
and active, it would move as
mighty army, and old evils would be
crushed. The night of unbelief and
sin has had it's time; the morning
of light and duty has come. The ar
NOR of light that is to be put on is
pure truth and love that will scat
ter evil when exposed. Having on
this armor, intemperance and all
sins are shut out of the Christians
soul and fall harmless at his feet
v. 13. "Let us walk becomingly
as in the day; not in reveling and
drunkenness, not in chambering and
wantonness, not in strife and jeal-
ousy." The Christian has no right
to be deformed and deficient moral
ly, unpleasant and repellent in char
acter and manner, but should be
well-balanced with every virtue.
Nothing is more uncouth and ugly
than drunkenness with its attend
