condition of swollen veins Of tia

Lack of sufficient rest periods or

The modern treatment Of varicoss
veins consists in the injection of
certain medicines directly into the
affected blood vessels. This closes
the veins and causes the disappear

closure of these veins, the circula-

Our Reply
The dyeing of oranges is a recent
development to improve the appear
ance of inferior oranges. They are
dipped into a mixture of an ole
soluble orange dye and a water
soluble green dye. The green dye
is selectively taken up by the stem
button to mask the discoloration Of
the button by the orange dye. The
need for such treatment is said to
occur only in connection with the
Valencia orange. The process rep

STUN HOUSING
COURT TEST
SOUGHT
international News Service

A Supreme Court test of another
Administration experiment, the
300 million dollar low cost housing
and slum eradication program
was sought today by PWA Off
Gals.
Legal attaches of the PWA
housing division disclosed they
have asked Attorney General Cum
mings to appeal a decision of the
United States Circuit Court Of
Appeals which held the Govern
ment had no right to condemn
property for the purpose of con-
Structing new housing facilities.
This decision was rendered re-
Gently after the Government at
tempted to seize through con-
domination proceedings four blocks
OF slum property in Louisville.
The three circuit judges divided
with a majority ruling that the
seizure Of property for the pur-
pose Of improving, selling or leas-
ing 1t, or for the purpose of reduc-
Ing unemployment is not within
the scope Of powers delegated to
the Government.
Vacant Land Cited

Chicago, Detroit, Louisville, Min.

model apartments in place of over.

Shackle dwellings, housing of.
ticials feared the Louisville decis.
ion eventually may forestall a
large portion entire slun clear
ance program.
The only recourse would be the
purchase Of vacant land wherever
owners OF Slum properties refuse
to sell their properties. This al
ready has been done in several
cities. PWA Administrator Ickes
yesterday announced options had
been accepted on a vacant site in
Boston because legal diffulties
forced the Government to delay
its plans for rehabilitating a pop
ulated section.
Year Limit Set
Officials said property owners
are demanding exorbitant prices
for their Anticipated structures.
Most of this real estate was pur-
chased during the boom years, and
the Government seeks to buy the
property at the present price level.
If the Supreme Court reverses
the Louisville ruling. the PWA can
proceed Immediately and condemn
Slum areas wherever it sees fit
and complete the program in less
than q year.

County Group
Urges More
Schools

BETHESDA, Nd, Sept. 10.-De.
claring that the building boom
in Montgomery county this year
will tend to increase the popula-
ton to such an extent as to make
additional school facilities neces-
sary, the Montgomery county
Civic Federation here last night
voted unanimously to urge the
Board of County Commissioners
to take immediate steps to secure
funds to construct additional
school buildings.
The federation several months
ago approved carefully studied
program Of school construction
and site needs for the future,
totaling $850,000, and only re-
Gently the PWA gave tentative
approval to the program and re.
ported that an appropriation of
$794,000, of which 10 per cent
would be a loan and 80 per cent
a grant, would be allowed. It is
believed some pressure will have
to be brought to bear on the
Commissioners before they will be
willing to obligate themselves to
this extent, due to the present
debt burden of the county.
It was also reported during the
meeting that a teacher will be
secured for the county schools
this year to teach lip reading
to children with faulty hearing.
This action was urged by the
federation some time ago.

SOCIAL, ECONOMIC SURVEY
UNDERTAKEN OF NATIVES

Charles w. Hawkesworth, head of
the Indian Bureau in Alaska. has
announced that an extensive survey

CHAMBERLAIN SAYS PERMIT
SYSTEM Is DISCRIMINATORY

Among those aboard the liner
Alaska Saturday on her arrival in
Cordova was H. O. Roberts, cannery-
man of Uganik. Asked if he was
able to secure an alI-Alaska crew
of workmen during the canning sea-
son, Mr.. Roberts said he was grad
ually building up an organization
whereby only Alaskans would be
employed.
OF course we have many unem-
ployables over to the westward and
it has been necessary to thresh over
much straw to get to the best. This
we have. With respect to the objec-
tion by Delegate Dimond to a can
merry at the mouth of the Yukon.
Mr.. Roberts said: 1T is not so much
a matter of taking the fish but of
who shall take them. If it is per-
mitted to take say 10000 cases in
a given district why should one
man be given a permit when twenty
men could do the canning? The OBJ
lection TO the present system of
granting permits is that it is dis
criminatory. Many of US believe that
a better system would be to an
nounce that a certain quantity of
fish could be taken and let all have
chance at canning them"

PLANE TRAFFIC INCREASING
STEADILY IN TERRITORY

Airplane traffic in the Territory
is growing steadily. The Territory
has been described by administra-
tion officials. congressman and 9TH
ers as the most air-minded section
of North America, and this eonten-
tion is borne out by records of the
customs office.
Not only is traffic within the
Territory expanding. but aerial COM
munication with the States and
with Canada is increasing notice
ably. Each year more ard more
planes are added to the Alaskan
fleet and visitors to the. north oe-
casionally bring their own ships.
During the past six years the
number of commercial planes in
service Ieaped from S to So; the
number Of passengers they carried
from PHI to 1914. Mail ana
freight carried in 1929 totaled
1851 pounds. Last year their
weight amounted to almost one mil
lion pounds.
There is little doubt that avia-
ton is contributing TO the develop
ment of Alaska. Mining operators
with crews and machinery are com
mon cargo for the airplane. not IN
the Interior only but on the coast.
Fishing. too. is aided by the flyers
as they transport needed parts of
machinery, cannery executives and
workers In Southeastern Alaska
the Bureau of Fisheries utilizes
planes to patrol the various districts
in the fishing areas.
The biggest increase in the num-
Der of planes in service occurred in
1850 when "a ships were in opera
ton, Is more than were in service
the previous year. From that time
until 1884 the gain was steady,
then IA more ships were added to
the ~ operating, making a total of
SO. This year even more planes are
in operation, following Inauguration
of the Observation-Disclosures service BY
the Pacific Alaska Anyways and the
establishment of a charter service

HUEY LONG. DICTATOR
valdez AIiner1

The death Of Huey Long, political
dictator of Louisiana. was a dis
tinct shock to those of US who have
followed the political fortunes of
this great disorganizer in Democrat
ie circles. Huey Long was disturb
ing element in every political or
ganization he was affiliated with.
and the stormy petrol of his party.
IN his own state and in all parts Of
the South. his adherents numbered
ten million enthusiastic partisans.
He took a toll in a lavish manner
from state taxes. and gave back ex-
trayagantly. He built vast state ent-
erprises and worked in his political
friends to manage them. He built
school houses and public buildings
by the score, using state labor ex-
elusiyely.
Huey was idolized by the urban
population of his state and doubly
damned by many of the large cities.
His finger was in everything in
which he could make a dollar for
his political friends.
His assassination shows the ten
deney of the people to resist a die
tatorship. What would be accepted
passively in Italy and Germany
would not last a week in America.
The death of Long, while it is to be
deplored, removed from his state a
man who was doubly dangerous &c
the security of property and bust
ness life.
There is no doubt that Huey was
a little "teched" by his own success.
Had he lived he would sooner or
later have been detained in some
sanitarium. No man could have his
colossal nerve and conceit, unless
he was mentally unbalanced.
He will soon be but a memory.
but the past ten years have been
most hectic ones for Congress and
the administrations.

BONES OF UNIDENTIFIED MAN
FOUND ON BANKS SUSITNA RIv.

Mystery surrounds the finding of
human skull and several bones on
river bar on the banks of the Sus-
tina. near the mouth of the Yentna
River, two miles above Susitna
Station. Chief of Police Walter l..
Brewington of Anchorage was in
formed of the matter by Henry
George, a native who made the dis
covery last spring. Identity of the
dead person, apparently a man. is
unknown. said George.
The ice had just gone out of the
Yentna, said George, when he
found the skull and bones, and he
,hcught possibly the ice had forced
them ashore from some place in the
river, where the man apparently
had met his fate
The theory has cen advanced b..
some who have heard of the discov-
cry that possibly the bones are those
Of Billy Dennison, who was
drowned in the Susitna November
5, 1929. while coming down the
river. Dennison was a well known
and prosperous trader at Susitna
Station and was coming down the
river in a canoe in company with
William P. Epperson, q years of
age, and his sister, then Mrs. Viii
kinson, now Mrs. Mike Trepte of
Dutch Greek, near Cache Creek.
Young Epperson swan ashore.
His sister chung to a cake of ice
and the brother swan back through
the chilly waters and rescued her.
After he got to shore he took a chill
and died from exposure The sister
worked over him heroically without
avail. She made her way to Susitna
Station and reported the case.
Young Epperson was brought to
Anchorage and buried there from
the Anchorage Funeral Parlors.
Dennison was reported to have
had $4,000 worth of gold dust
strapped to him, and to have car
ried $4,000 to $4,000 worth of dia-
monds. Neither the man nor the
gold or other possessions he had
with him were found 1t is thought
that if the bones reported are those
of Dennison, and the body had been
washed ashore before decomposition
that possibly the poke of gold and
other articles on his person may be
found in the vicinity

BOND FOR HALIBUTER TAHOMA
MAY FORFEIT TO GOVERNMENT

If owners of the halibut fishing
vessel Tahoma do not turn the ship
over to the United States govern
ment in accordance with the judg-
ment handed down last Saturday
by District Judge Alexander before
he left for the south, an $4,000
bond will be forfeited to the gov
eminent, it was explained in Ju-
neau by G. W Folta. assistant
United States district attorney.
Action was brought against the
Tahoma on grounds that she was
operating under American registry
while Canadian owned and thus was
eyading half a cent a pound duty
on halibut which is shipped from
Canada TO the United States In
the period between June. 1888. and
September. 1884, the vessel eyaded
more than $4,000 in duty. the gov
eminent eontended.
As an American vessel she would
ply into Prince Rupert under per-
nit and sell their halibut without
paying duty. The government
proved she actually was a Canadian
vessel and thus was subject to duty.
