MONARCHY PLANS
Schuschnigg Says Trouble

BY the Associated Press.
VIENNA, November 14.-Chancel-
lor Kurt Schuschnigg declared de-
cisively at q luncheon Of Anglo-Amer-
ican newspaper men yesterday that
there will be no monarchist restoration
in Austrial, at least not in the imme-
diate future.
"You who have lived in Austria,
said the chancellor, have acquired
some Austrian patience, but even this
patience would not be sufficient to
hold out until a possible change in
our form of state occurs"
He denied that any negotiations
were proceeding to normalize rela-
tions between Austria and Germany.
Austria" he declared, did not
bring about the present difficult sit
uation between the two German
speaking States, therefore. it is not
for us to take the initiative to correct
the existing conditions.
1--WE, however, are doing our best
to avoid anything which could in
crease the present tension. We only
ask that Austria be left alone. Those
who leave Austria alone will always
find her good neighbor."

for doubt about that. Will this bring about a restoration of popular interest in the arts and sciences? Surely the tendency will be in that direction But the revision of subject matter may prove slow. Indeed it is likely that the dismal science will have colored the literature of our time that economics must continue as a vital part of the intellectual equipment of the elite.
 It is also possible that the State will assume a steadily larger role in economic life and people will become self-conscous parts of national economic mechanism. In such likely to further coloring of the arts by considerations of demand and supply, of standardization of produc- ton and integraton of industrial control.
 With prospects such these it is a daring citizen who would forsake his wel-thumbed volumes in economies for the neglected books of pure ltera- ture and While many millions unemployed, the obsession of economics is not likely to pass.

Alas! Alaska.
(Miami Herald.)

Despite the millions of dollars that have gone
 into and come out of Alaska that far Northern Territory is discontented. It is owned body and soul, by Uncle Sam, and if it is to get ahead in the world, the people of that rich country would like to experience home rule with possibilities of greater expansion
 Alaska, it is pointed out, is example of what happens when the Federal Government sits on the lid, dscourages private enterprise and is the whole cheese There has been little selfish exploitation in Alaska, and that seems to be the trouble While Alaska possesses vast natural resources the country has shown slight progress in years After the gold boom, the visitors did not dig in and Stay. They dug out. Population decreased. But the population would not have decreased if individual initiative was given full play, if Alaskans had more to say about their own government and development. But Washington is far away and does not care what happens in the Arctic outpost.
 Suppose the Federal Government owned 99 per cent of the land in Florida suppose natural lgfts controlled by Washington, that laws and regulations and expenditures passed upon iby Congress, how far would this State have pro- gressed? It is not likely that would have be- come the sun parlor of the nation not likely that hotels would be crowded with visitors, that these hotels would have been built. Florida would lag like other commonwealths and territories under the heel of government.
 But that is the situation faced by Alaska, and emphasized by the new Governor John w. Troy, ia pioneer editor and publisher of Juneau, the IcdpiCdl o Aldskd ne uecldIeS tdt AldSKa Siloulu govern herself that her laws should be made by her Legislature and executed by her officials There should be local government
 Alaska's land area is approximately 590000 square miles of which 99 per cent is owned by the Federal Government. Under conservation system, it's for ests coal and oil held in perpetuity by the Government, forever precluding their possession by private ownership and it is only under the latter that the United States has made such advancement. The fisheries, fur and game regulated controlled and administered by Washington. The Federal Gov ernment authorizes bond issues fixes taxation even
 for the municipalities, passes the laws It is wonder Alaskans object to the enslave- ment of Uncle Sam, clamor for freedom to govern
 themselves, seek the right to develop their rich heritage. With America seeking new sources of revenue opportunities for employment Alaska stands neglected.

A Wilson Memorial.
(NeW York Times ]


 The Daily Prncetonians view about the pro- posed monument in memory of President Wilson will be shared by many. All will feel that there should be local memorial, but the one sug- gested seems to be neither adquate nor wholly in character Seeing it, one jealous for his memory would recall the lines of Milton in contemplating another monument:
 Dear son of memory, great heir of
 fame,
 What need'st thou such weak wit
 of thy name? merely to raise a question about the appropriate ness of shaft which will not lift its top above the trees suggest the nobility of MT Wilson's service to his community to his country and to humanity It was in Princeton as professor that he dreamed of the perfect place of learning and any Princeton memorial should have that as it's dominant theme. It was a place, he described it. frequented by sagacious men, debaters of the worlds questions, used to the rough ways of democracy where calm science sat ascetic not knowing if the world passed, caring only that the truth in answer to her prayer, and where literature walked in quiet chambers with storied walls about.
 As The Princetonan says he would doubtless "of direct value to human beings" Could there be more appropriate commemoration than one which helped to develop the perfect place for learning that was in his vision? There will be monuments elsewhere to his national and world service. At Princeton should be remembered the student, the teacher, the university president

Judith. She should put more warmth in her voice. Clia knew how dear Big Tom had been to her. She'd think her completely heartless.
 Tt seems Mathile and Mrs. Bevins were giving a dinner party this evening. Bevins came in, said he was too tired to sit in, and would go on up to bed.
 "They objected because it would leave thirteen at the table. He sat in Afterwards he started to his room again but, he was needed to fill in at bridge table. He filled in.
 "He played until ten o'clock, com plained of feeling queer. dizzy. While he was dummy he excused himself saying he was going for drink. He got as far as the door,"
 Tears of pity burned Judith's eyes. Clia saw the closed eye-lids. Her terse, dramatic style of relat- ing the scene had worked.

Clia, taking Judith to her room. seemed on the verge of saying something several times only to stop, light a fresh cigarette, and dash it out in the nearest ash-tray.
 "Ill call my ofiice." she said at length and went downstairs.
 Judith stared into the mirror. Methodically she removed paint and powder with fresh tissue, folded each piece carefully, and tossed them into their basket.
