ciaD-To read what all these
critics of our country write, you
would naturally think that every
body else was just sitting pretty.
But France has offered their
premiership to everybody over
there but Chevalier, and they
know he is too smart to take it.
England just today traded horses
right in the middle of the Thames
river. Half of Italy has gone to
Africa with gun on their shoul-

Chinese maps to see where to
send their army. Russia must be
in some deviltry; we never hear
of 'em any more. So you see,
there's none of 'em that we can
point with pride to. It's just

A WORTHY RECORD.

J. L. (Dolly) Gray, after fourteen years ccntinu- GUS service as Chief of the Juneau Fire Depart ment resigned that position last night, but will continue as a member of the local department, ac- cording to a news story in todays Empire
 Appreciation of the services former Chief Cray has given to the City of Juneau was expressed by many Juneau people today, and he is deserving of the gratitude of every citizen of this community for the splendid manner in which he has contributed his efforts to build up and maintain the morale of JuneauS Volunteer Fire Department and the equipment that contributes much to it's effective ness.
 During the time that MT. Gray served as Chief the insurance rates in Juneau have been drasticaly cut When asked today how many calls he had answered during his service with the Department MT. Gray said he had idea, but that he had saved the slips from each call and there was a high pile of them, maybe some day I'll count them"
 The outstanding service and protection whici. the Juneau Volunteer Fire Department consistently gives to Juneau should be recognized and appre- ciated consistently by every Juneau citizen.
 The long years of devoted, efficient and effective service that Dolly Gray has given Chief of the Department and leading it to it's present state of efficiency will be justly remembered by many with consciousness of sincere and lasting appre- ciation

Mir. Hoover Tries.
(New York World-Telegram.) )

MT. Hoover has called Republicans to rally to their greatest opportunity since Lincolns day.
 That the opportunity for leadership is here none will deny But search the Hoover message in vain for any definite program. He is rich in gen. eralities He is for home and mother, for liberty, for Americanism But has he always been That didn't prevent the depression.
 MT. Hoover would have us believe that under the Democratic Administration the fundamental Amer ican principles in daily jeopardy" He thinks we the victim of enormous centrazaton of government and that the freedom of men to think, to act, to achieve is being hampered v His solution is indefinite as his indictment. He proposes that go back to rugged individualism
 The assumption is that ndividuasm reigned in the Hoover Administration. Apparently he forgets that he put the Government into farm relief, that he started the Reconstruction Finance Corporation l-the worlds largest government-bank operation that the Interstate Comerce Commission the Fed eral Trade Commission and other agencies for government interference" in business were old be- fore Franklin Roosevelt entered the White House. And apparently it escaped his notice that organ ized business is today leading the fight to extend the MIRA.
 Government is taking a hand increasingly in economic affairs because it to- but because it must. It stepped in after so-caed ndivdualism broke the farmer wrecked the banks, destroyed the
 industrial market and profits and drove the workers out of the factories onto the bread lines. If the Republicans in power today they would be forced by hard necessity to take the same general line Of defense of the national welfare as the Democratic Administration The proof of this
 is that all the New Deal legislation has been enacted with bipartisan support in Congress If MT. Hoover does not know this it is because he is singularly
 isolated from economic and political realities. That the majorities of both Of the old parties are in virtual agreement regarding general lines of policy does not mean however, that there is need for an opposition party. There is very wide dis agreement as the proper methods of applying the general policy And it is to the interest of the New Deal itself, well of those who criticize it's detailed operation that this opposition be led in telligently and courageousy.
 ! Such opposition leadership, if and when it comes, will not evade issues with generaties about Amer icanism but will try to demonstrate that it do the practical daily job better than the Roosevelt Administration In times of crisis that is the test of any opposition party, but it is test which the public applies with especial rigor to group which failed in the job completely the Hoover Re- publicans.

UP TO CITIES NOW.

Carrying out the mandate of the Legislature the Board of Liquor Control has set up a new group of regulations for the Territory that should bring about good results and do away with some of the dissatisfaction that expressed from diff ferent sections during legislative days.
 Critics have directed most of their fire against beer parlors licenses for which were formerly issued by the District Courts under the 1922 Session Laws The Board has now put the job of enforcement just where it belongs-with the cities themselves Each municipality will be solely responsible for conditions within it's own limits and must approve all licenses. By ordinance they regulate closing hours, entertainment in dspensaries and such things that have been responsible for consid- erable complaining. Not only can they regulate in these particulars but they explicitly charged with enforcement of the law. As aid in doing so the Board raised the refund to incorporated cities from liquor from 50 to 60 per cent which means more money in the city treasury. But to keep it there for their use they must enforce the law If they don't do it, under the new regulations the Board will cut off the refunds and take over enforcement itself.
 Tightening up on wholesalers the Board set up a stringent wholesale license system. Wholesalers outside the Territory well those inside must have Territorial license and they must have license for their distributing point in Alaska.
 Members of the Board have spent long hours and many days framing the new regulations and they appear to have arrived at workable and ade- quate conclusions If the municipalities and the districts outside incorporated towns will lend their full cooperation to the Boards program it is logical to anticipate and believe that the handling Of liquor in the Territory will work out smoothly for the next couple of years, with much of the trouble eliminated.

II may be true that union leaders were excessively

now to have the test made IN plants where terrorism

no union. except company one, has chance OF
winning ma iOrIty unless IL commands the support
OF ut least thrce-quarters Of the employees.
