Certainly if faith can be aroused by public words the American people should soon be 'rarin to go To be sure, the President, after encouraging the conservatives for few weeks, could not resist the temptation to make bid to the radicals by his vague generalites about Government-owned power stations in every town and county. But the latest speech of his chief co-ordnator, MT. Donald Rich berg is so full of sound sense and orthodox econ- omcs that it might well have been written by a critic of the New Deal year ago. It denies the existence of panaceas and patent medicines It warns categorcaly against the dangers of infla- tion. It denounces those who contend that private initiative is so weakened that Government must assume the responsibility for revival It recognizes the dangers that lie ahead in even the partial assumption by the Government of some of those responsibilities which rightly belong to private initiative.

 The present time required for letter from this city to reach Fairbanks is days as compared to 10 to 12 hours if air service is established. The Federal Government is asked to authorize the route at the earliest possible date contention being that Alaska's forty to sixty million dollar trade is deserving of this service.

Hit at Indiana Will Be
Given Second Week
of Showing.

'The Gay Divorce" has made
such a hit at the Indiana that it
is being held over for a second week.
THE Gay Divorce is declared to
be the first ''true musical comedy"
ever presented on the screen.
Studio officials, it is said, ex-
hausted every possibility to accur-
ately capture the giddy, headlong
speed of the plot, which, as a stage
play starring Fred Astaire, played
238 performances in New York and
six months in the Palace theater,
London.
Hit numbers of the original play
have been retained, including the
celebrated Might and Day" num-
Der, to the music of which Astaire
does his famous Dance of Moods"
There also is AStaireS sensational
wild dance of joy and abandon
ment, wherein, having at last won
Ginger Rogers, the lady of his
dreams, he celebrates with a daring
repriSe of The Continental" over
tables. chairs, davenports and what
notS
The play itself is one of Broad
ways historic incidents. Several
times it was owned by rather des-
perate producers caught with a
theater on their hands and no play
to produce.
When they found something they
thought was better, they passed the
play along at a bargain rate.
Eventually it made fortunes for
those who finally produced it.
