years There was no queue of wait
ing customers. however. and the real
sale of spirits did not commence un-
til O'Clock in the morning, when
a moderate business was reported.
This is as it should be, for the
future of the liquor dispensaries
here and elsewhere depends almost
entirely upon the manner in which
it is conducted between now and the
next meeting of the territorial legis-
lature. If the regulations are OBJ
served and drinking is moderate. no
drastic steps are expected. On the
other hand, if drinking is excessive
and drinkers disorderly, public opin-
ion will force legislative action
which will bring stern, restrictive
measures for both the seller and the
consumer.

A NEW INDUSTRY

A communication from a sea pro-
ducts company desiring to engage
in the catching and dehydration of
shrimps in southeast Alaska for a
foreign market has been received by
the Wrangell Commercial Club. The
company proposes to operate from
a motorship and barge.
So far as can be learned at the
present, Wrangell business men are
not overly enthusiastic about the
prospect. The new industry, it is
true, suggests the possibility of en-
gaging the services of independent
fishermen in addition to their own
trawlers, but aside from this it is
hard to see any benefits which could
accrue to this town from such an
enterprise.
First of all, such a floating can
merry, or dehydrating plant, is not
strictly a home industry. 1t employs
little, if any, local labor, 1t pays no
tax for the upkeep of the commun-
ity, and it is ready to move. and
does move without warning to a
more favorable location when the
owner sees fit.
But a much more serious thing to
consider is the effect of such pack
ing unit upon the industry as a
whole A dehydrating plant would
undoubtedly fish more intensively
and make larger hauls than the or
binary shrimp packer, thus hasten
ing the depletion of the shrimp
fisheries in this vicinity
The citizens of Wrangell will do
well to ponder over the matter be-
fore they place their mark of appro-
val upon such an undertaking.

LEGION AUXILIARY TO
SELL MEMORIAL P0PPIES

Wrangell will be called upon to
honor the World War dead and give
aid to the wars living victims by
wearing memorial peoples on May
.26. This day, the Saturday before
Memorial Day, will be Poppy Day"
throughout the United States and
will be generally observed by the
wearing of the little red flower of
Flanders Fields.
Observance of Poppy Day here
will be directed by the American Le-
gion Auxiliary, Miss Irene Coulter
President of the local Auxiliary Unit
has announced. Women of the Aux
Hilary will distribute peoples on the
streets and receive contributions for
the Auxiliary's welfare and relief
work among the disabled veterans
and their families.
Organization of corps of volun-
teer workers to distribute the mem
orial flowers is going forward rapid
Iy under the leadership of Mrs. H. R.
Coulter. chairman of the Auxiliary's
poppy committee. A large supply of
the peoples has been ordered from
work room of disabled veterans
who have been given employment
during the winter and spring max
ing the little paper flowers
The purpose OF Poppy Day is to
give everyone an opportunity to pay
individual tribute to the men who
gave their lives in defense of the
nation" said Miss Coulter The lit
tie act of wearing a poppy touches
the individual more closely than
large public ceremonies in which he
is only a spectator and awakens a
realization of the individual respon
sibility to the nation, so greatly
needed at this time. Poppy Day
also gives everyone an opportunity
to share in the vast work which the
American Legion and Auxiliary are
doing for the disabled men. their
families and the families of the
dead"

INDIAN EDUCATION

Substitution of federal day
schools and publie-school facilities
for government Indian boarding
schools, a policy now we'll estab-
lished in the Indian Service, gained
considerable momentum during the
last year from budgetary changes
made necessary by the Govern
ment's economy program, it is re-
ported by the office of Indian AT
fairs.
In 1882 there were 5000 chill
dren enrolled in day schools, while
in 1888 this number had increased
to 6,S36 With the day school build
ing program now programmed these
numbers will be greatly augmented.
During the year 1928 applica-
tions were received and approved
from 1892 state public-school dis
tricts for payment of tuition for
Is, $50 Indian pupils. Reports from
all field units show an actual pub
lic-school enrolment for the year of
43,98S, for whom tuition was paid.
1t is expected that during the
school term 1933-34, from 1000 to
5000 of the $4,000 children for
merly attending federal boarding
schools will be in attendance at To-
cal day schools or public schools.
Nearly $4,000 Indian children will
be attending public schools and
federal day schools.

MACYS HAT IN RING
FOR GOVERNORSHIP
0usted New York G. 0. P. Chair.
man Declares He Will Seek
Party Nomination.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 12-W.
Kingsland Macy, who was replaced as
Republican State chairman at the last
convention, last night announced his
for Governor in 1886.
His announcement was prefaced by
q sharp arraignment OF what he
termed the "old guard" wing, which
he blamed for the most ignominous
defeat in the party's history at last
Tuesdays election.
The malicious maladroitneSs OF the
men who engineered the Republican
campaign of 1884 in New York State
will long be remembered as the dying
effort of a group of unscrupulous poll
ticians who sacrificed every decent
principle of politics in order that they
might have political control" he said.
The MacHolds, the Hammonds, the
Thayers, the McGinnieses and Wads-
worths have had their final field day"
Macy, who last year accused Repub
lican Assembly leaders of being under
the domination of public utility inter-
ests, was a pre-convention supporter
of Samuel Seabury for the governor
ship nomination.
Macy said he had communicated a
protest to Republican congressman
elect against what he called the old
guard affiliation of Representative
Bertrand H. Smell, minority leader in
the House.
In his mention of the "MacHold-
Wadsworth group" Macy referred to
H Edmund MacHold, former Repub-
lican State chairman, and Represen-
tative James w. Wadsworth, former
United States Senator.

NEGLECT OF COMMON
CONSTIPATION ISA
SERIOUS MATTER
Prevent This Condition with
kellogg's ALL BRAN.

The first question your doctor
asks is whether you are consti-
pated or not He knows that this
condition may cause headaches
loss of appetite and energy, sleep
lessness. 1t is often the starting
point of serious illness.
You can prevent and relieve COM
mon constipation so easily. Just
eat a delicious cereal once a day.
Laboratory tests show that Kel-
logg's ALL-BRAN provides bulk"
and vitamin B to aid regular hab-
it's. ALL-BRAN is also rich source
of blood building iron.
The bulk" in ALL-BRAN is much
like that found in leafy vegetables.
Within the body, it forms a soft
mass. Gently, it clears out the in
teStlnal wastes.
Isn't this cereal way" safer and
far more pleasant than taking pat
ent medicines-so often harmful?
Two tablespoonfuls of ALL-BRAN
daily are usually sufficient. With
each meal in chronic cases. If Sc
riously i'll see your doctor-ALL-
BRAN is not a "cure-all."
Enjoy ALL-BRAN as a cereal, or
use in cooking. Get the red-and-
green package at your grocer's.
Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
