w. Beall Post No, is

in establishing the commodity's cost
To raise prices means to lower the value
OF the dollar, and long ago Dr. Warren
scoffed at the idea of trying to reduce
the dollars value and still maintain its
gold content unimpaired. He prophesied
many years more of depression unless
the gold standard was thrown over
board, the dollar revalued It's no
secret that Mr.. Roosevelt has been dis
! appointed by the slowness with which
! his legislative acts have stimulated bu-
siness Improvement, and he lent ready
ear to DR.. Warren and to Professor
Rogers of Yale, whose ideas are SINH
: lar. little later, commodity prices
began to sag, precisely as DR.. Warren
said they would. Upshot was the Presi-
dental order that sent the United States
into the world market for gold, lowered
, dollar vaue in foreign exchange, and be-
gan the long process of revaluing it.
Then the criticism began gathering.
The Chamber Of Commerce of the State
of New York passed resolution calling
for sound money. 1t was at once re-
buked by an economist for the Commit
tee of the Nation, who defended the
President saying the Chamber "is not
even representative of the commercial
point of view of the city of New York;
Then, Alfred E. Smith took a crack atl
what he termed "baloney" dollar, in al
New Outlook editorial, and intimated|
that the country had another Cleveland.
i To the Presidents defense came Repub-
lican Borah, as brilliant and erratic al
Senator as the country ever saw, who
said that the question was not one ofj
sound or honest money, that the goldl
dollar is the most dishonest dollar everl
created. That indicates how party lines3
have broken-an ex-Democratic president
tial candidate sides against the head oil
his party, and the best known Republic
can Senator joins his allies! Finally
the President himself spoke at Savannah
in defense of his policies, scored what
he dalled "Tory critics." and found
mounting applause from his audience.
The Roosevelt personality is as potent
as ever-and personal popularity means3
much to Presidents.
i That's where matters stand at thisl
writing. It's easily the most import
tant problem of the time-it can makel
or break the recovery program, and
make or break the administration whllel
it's doing it. The climax is still to bel
reached.
Dramatic and unprecedented with vast
potential achievements-that describesI
the new Civil Works Administration. III
is, in words of the President, blow at,
the dole, at mentally debilitating charity
which is often as psychologically de-
structive to the individual as it is Soc
tally destructive to the country at large.I
The purpose is to give 100000 mem
work this winter on projects where atl
least 80 cents of each dollar spent will
go for wages.
| All able-bodied persons now receivingI
relief, are to be given regular, usetul
Jobs at real wages. Two million people
fall in this classification. Two million
more, not on the relief rolls, are also
to be provided with jobs. Great stress
is laid on the influence this will have in
increasing the public income, and send
ing more of the blood of money through
the veins of trade.

about 400 acres. When we consider the
number of acres that are being cult
waited, and the benefit of good crop
of vetch on the succeeding crop, we are
bound to admit that our farmers care
very little for the improvement of their
soil. A good crop of vetch will gener-
ally double and frequently more than
double the yield of the succeeding crop.
This has been demonstrated by expert
ment stations of the state and by indivi
dual farmers Of the county. 1t is rather
strange why this knowledge will not
soak into more of our farmers.

at least hear of the legal sale of whiskey
IN this country within the next few DAYS
A majority of those who voted for re-
pealing the 18th amendment did so
thinking that the liquor traffic would
be handled in an intelligent way. 1t is
proposed that the national government
| collect from $3.50 to $500 gallon as
revenue. In addition to this the state
will come in for its share, causing a
! total tax of nearly four dollars a gal
lon before the manufacturer gets any
thing. This high tax will result only
| in continuation of the bootIegging
| business. Bootleggers sell their liquor
for $500 gallon and whiskey drinkers
will buy the bootlegged liquor before
they will buy the legal whskey at the
advanced price. The users of whiskey
will be like the negro who wanted to
marry dusky damsel whose name was

NEW YORK FATHER AND SON
ON ALASKA BIG GAME HUNT

Edward Mcdonald, who was 13
years old the day he left New York
City by United Air Lines, with his
father, E. o. Mcdonald, for a bear
hunt in Alaska, won the honors for
the family as tar as getting
brownies goes, his father proudly
told the Juneau Empire. Mr.. Nc
Donald got one seven feet long and
the boys was eight feet.
Mr.. Mcdonald and his son came
into Juneau with Joe Crosson on
the PAA plane after a 21-day hunt
at Mole Harbor on Admiralty Is
land, and after luncheon, at which
they were guests of Gov. John w.
Troy, left on the plane for Fair
banks. They expected to go to Point
Barrow in search of polar bears the
following day and Edward said he
was hoping to get the biggest pol
ar bear too. They plan to return to
Juneau and continue south by
plane with David Mccullough, of
Miami, Florida, who is now hunting
at Mole Harbor, in about two
weeks. Among the aviation COM
panies in which Mr. Mcdonald is a
director, is the Pan American Air

read again. Following the second
reading, Merrick said he was pre-
pared to argue against certain OF
the resolutions if any of the spoh-
sors cared to open debate.
Commissioner Bell repeatedly
called for expressions and opinions
from the audience. Il am here to
listen" said he.
Fred Gunderson, Independent trap
owner, arose to say that he lived
in the territory, made his living
here, and was sure of a new deal
from the new Commissioner.
Walter Shadesty spoke reminis-
Gently of those happy days when
there was no such thing a fish
trap in Alaska.
I'VE had no kick then, but
now" 1t was hard for the Indian
to make a living. Traps caught
most of the salmon. Il am glad to
hear you say that you are just d
common man like u.s." said Shad-
esty. THE Commissioner before
you, Mr.. OMalley, never listened
to our side. We hope you will pull
for us.
Are you a fisherman" the Com
missioner asked.
II am a steamboat man." Walter
answered modestly.
Louis Paul, formerly editor Of
the Petersburg Alaskan, stated
that he spoke for the Native fish
ermen. He, also, was glad to hear
that the new Commissioner was a
common man.
There is a war going on here
between the seiners and the trap
men," he asserted.
Among other things, Paul de-
manded that trapmen be compelled
to free the salmon from their traps
at o'clock Saturday evening, in
stead of being permitted to hold
them oyer until the end OF the
weekly closed season, Monday morn
ing.
He also asked the opening of
certain closed areas. These closed
areas" said he, ARE such that it
is impossible to fish successfully
with movable gear without yiolat-
ing the law. We are not criminals
at heart, but in order to get sal
mon we must sneak into the closed
areas"
Ninety-five per cent of all seine
fish delivered to canneries in South
east Alaska is caught illegally, ac-
cording to Paul's estimate.
Herring fishing" continued
Paul, should not be permitted for
the purpose of making fertilizer;
nor, in fact, for any other purpose
where they are spawning. Alaska
herring are a local species. When
one area is fished continuously, the
herring in that area are annihi-
lated"
He asserted that this very thing
had happened in the Eastern Pas
sage, known locally as the Back
Channel, and that it meant the
destruction of troll fishing there,
because herring is the king sal
mons natural food.
Attorney Merrick again took the
floor to say he concurred with the
fishermen in regard to the destruc-
tion brought about by the herring
fishing.
Stable Price
Commissioner Bell made a brief
closing speech in which he referred
to the Wagner bill-a bill which
provides for the setting aside, tenn
porarily, of the antitrust laws-by
which it is hoped that stabiliza-
ton of the various industries may
be accomplished.
THE Bureau of Fisheries is anx-
ious to cooperate in this" he said.
I'VE want to work out stable
price for the fishermen as well as
for the cannerymen and trapmen.
The thing for you to do" he con-
cluded," is to get together-you
