Recommends Pard0n for Tom Mooney;Open Letter Appears
 m Magazine Edited by Moley

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-Raymond Moley in an open letter to Gov.- Elect Frank E. Merriam, of Cali fornia, recommended a pardon be issued to Tom Mooney before the Supreme Court is compelled to en- ter upon the task of establishing legal justification for a review of the case"
 The letter appeared in the cur rent issue of the magazine. Today edited by Moley.
 Moley said AS a professional student of criminal justice, am forced to the belief Mooney's trial was tainted with perjury to such an important degree that his conviction was unfair in the light of Anglo-American traditions and jurisprudence.
 T believe you should pardon him because it is more important that processes of Justice be main tained on an elevation untainted by error or corruption than that a menace of the peace of the state be kept behind bars. Sus- picion is aboard in the land that Justice is tainted and more dan gerous to the public peace than the liberty of a thousand bad men,"

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2l.-Uncle Sam is reported in reliable sources to have clamped down the lid on information concerning new naval developments.
 Heretofore an exchange of naval data with other nations has been accomplished, but one nation re- fused to cooperate in such an ex- change, claiming it could get all the necessary information through so-called unofficial channels.
 Unofficial Channels
 Unofficial channels are describ- ed as certain Congressional In vestigating Committees, Secretary of Navy's annual report to Con- gress, motion pictures of naval de- vices, and activities of committees considering Army and Navy Sup ply bills in Congress.
 Report Is Purged
 Secretary of Navy Swanson's re- port to Congress, now being pre- pared, is purged of all informa- tion that might reveal new secrets of developments. Particular secrecy has been thrown around certain improvements in Naval construc- tion, radio developments, gunnery anti-torpedo and aircraft devices
 Firms constructing such devices are also placed under rigid secrecy
 Although the Navy Department has always taken certain precau- tions to guard secrets, under the London treaty, certain information was required to be made public.

LAND PURCHASED
 FOR AIR FIELDS
 |ANNOUNCESPECK
Approximately Seventy-hve Acres Secured from
 Kendler Dairy
DEVELOPMENT WILL
 BE PUSHED AT ONCE
Regular Air Service Be- tween Juneau and Fair
 banks Next Spring

Lyman $. Peck, Vice-Presi- dent and General Manager of the Pacific Alaska Airways, now enroute to Fairbanks, an- n0unced last night while the Yukon was in port, that his company had exercised their option on approximately 75 acres of land owned by Joe Kendler of the Alaska Dairy, for the development of an airport, and that as soon as the final papers are drawn up and signed the deal will be closed.
 Early next week we plan to tart the development work which, as planned, will result in one of the finest air. ports in Alaska" MT. Peck said last night. "As much work as possible will be done this winter, and all of it with local labor. Most of the work laid out for now will be the filling in, of the largest de- pressions in the terrain, and general leveling of the land.
 "The grading and surfac- ing will not be done until next spring because the ground is already somewhat frozen and it would be impractical to at tempt ths f in al surfacing until all frost is out of the ground"
 The plans call for a two way runway, Mir. Peck said.
 The site was selected after care ful surveys of the country sur-s rounding Juneau during the past year, and MT Peck is particularly enthusiastic about the location be- cause of the long open approaches to the field, which are free from trees and hills, most desirable condition. Both Army and Navy fliers expressed the same opinion this summer when they viewed the proposed site, as did Robert Thach. Vice President of Pan American Airways, who made 8 tour through Alaska and to Siberia this summer, in company with Harllee Branch, Second Assistant Postmaster Gem eral
 Tn addition to the filling-in work, it is possible that some building construction may be started this winter, according to MT. Peck.

HOME OWNERS GIVEN ''BREAK"
 VIA NEW DEAL
President to Recommend Big Increase in Hous-
 ing Projects
lBy HERBERT PLUMMERl

WASHINGTON Nov. 21.-Presi- dent Roosevelt's announcement that he will recommend a big in- crease in housing projects to the next Congress may give home own CTS one of the biggest breaks in the new deal"
 Within the comparatively short time of three and one-half years Uncle Sam has set up machinery to aid home owners rivaling any of the other vast and intricate governmental mechanisms. And apparently the end is not yet in sight.
 Literally billions of dollars of government and industrial money have been made available.
 Uncle Sam took the first step in this direction in the latter part of the Hoover Administrator when Congress passed the first Federal home loan act--the father of the numerous similar acts now on the statute books.
 From then on alphabetical ag- encies created to help the home owner increased by leaps and bounds.

Grand Slams Not Bid.

N VOW that the premium for a
vulnerable grand slam is a
fat $3.50 points, a player may
/ be excused for breaking out
into loud walls when he finds
himself playing a lay-down grand
slam at small slam-or even worse
at game contract.
A certain fine bridge player Of my
acquaintance tells me that he has
practically given up grand slams be-
cause of the uncertain caliber of his
partners. After having lost innumer-
able small slams through trying for
larger score, he became disguised.
Playing at New York bridge club
the other night, he was introduced
to Mr. Blank, total stranger. After
the usual amenities were interchanged,
they agreed to play my system. Mr..
Blank proceeded to muff couple of
hands very neatly, and then our hero
was dealt the following cards:
Spades A Jxxx Diamond K
His partner, Mr.. Blank, bid one
club. He properly bid one spade.
Three clubs from Mr.. Blank He
then showed his other suit, three
diamonds. Five clubs by Mr. Blank
The fine player argued as follows:
My partner has given me two jump
bids, and I hold three aces. Well
he asked for it-seven clubs. The
contract went down two tricks, Mr..
Blank having opened on seven clubs
with $50 honors, doubleton hearts,
singleton diamond and three spades
to the queen.
Naturally, such an experience Is
bound to be embittering. A few
rubbers later, when our hero had
again drawn Mr.. Blank for a partner,
he was dealt the following cards:
Spades A 9 J 10 K Diamonds Xxx
He bid one spade, and got a re-
sponse of two hearts from his part
ner. The correct bid under my sys-
tenn is four hearts, a definite slam
try. But the dealer was afraid that
Mr.. Blank, holding, let us say, five
hearts to the queen, the ace of
diamonds and the king of spades,
would drop the bid. He decided to
bid six hearts at once-then soberer
reflection showed him the folly of
that course. He finally hit upon
five hearts as the happy medium.
Mr.. Blank went six for him, holding

Everyday Psychology
By DIR. JESSE w. sPROwLS.
Completes.

A CCoRDING to psychoanalysis,
each person has his mental COM
plexes. Take these complexes all to-
gether. and you have what is known
as personality or character.
Some complexes are so apparent
you can recognize them Immediately.
For instance. you can tell from
strangers conversation what his pro-
fession or politics is. School teachers,
ministers and travelling statesmen seem
to be unable to conceal their identi-
ties as such. They possesses a COM
plex of attitudes, expressions, and
even bodily habits that betrays the
entire trend of their visible personali-
ties. The complexes that make up
the visible personality are really
nothing other than the habits the
person has acquired.
The visible complexes are, after
all, the smallest part of any in
dividual. Beneath the visible part
lies hidden from ordinary observation
a vastly more important group of
complexes. These are so well con-
cealed that the individual is really
not very well aware that they con-
stitute the essence of his real self.
In fact, if you point them out to him,
he is likely to disagree with you. No
one really wants to see himself as
others see him.
These two systems Of complexes
exist in every individual. There is
no escape from them. When you
refer to a persons personality, you
refer to what is on the surface, and
to what he is content to display.
When you refer to character, you
have in mind system of complexes
which you know only after having
been acquainted with the person over
a long period of time.
