 Flying across the Atlantic seems long ways away to those of us in Alaska, but it is more significant than many of us suspect This is the link that will complete the actual girdle of the globe by airplane. Here in the North, particularly Juneau Fairbanks and Nome are right on the route which in a few short years will be the airline around the world. The Pacific Alaska Airways IS a link of Pan-American and it is the latter organi- zation which is pioneering the round-the globe line Much of the future aviation history of Alaska and it's ultimate development of aerial transportation can be found in that announcement of plans for commercial flying across the distant Atlantic.

A Spot Cash Boom
(Concinnati Enquirer9


 The recent rapid rise in the security markets had some of the earmarks of speculative boom akin to the unwarranted burst of enthusiasm in the middle of 1883. But in one important respect it was altogether different Brokers loans did not soar with the increase of activity and of profits in the markets The legitimate conclusion is that the stock market boom" did not, in the main represent speculation by persons who could not all ford it. It was not rise financed by borrowed money for the most part
 Perhaps it is going too far to say that the buy ing was done by persons who wanted to invest rather than speculate. The distinction between investment and speculation is subtle But it is safe to say that in contrast to previous security market booms the recent not primarily wave of gambling with borrowed money
 Much credit must be given to the new Security Exchange Act for the betterment of the stock mar ket picture The restrictions on margin trading have been effective, as the statistics of brokers loans indicate.
 It is not to be expected that the volume of trad ing and the price averages on the security markets should move steadily along in harmony with the actual growth of business and business profits The function of the exchanges involves the discountng of future possibilities. As such, it means frequent price movements that may often run counter to statistics of production and profits. But those mar kes ought to be as as possible the clearing houses for liquid capital the channels of investment, and not simply gaming tables at which persons can play with other peoples money. From the current evil dence it appears that the security markets are nov ing in that direction, and it is gratifying trend

DECEMBER IA. 1915


 The Lue, launch formerly owned by Capt. James O. Plunkett, be- lieved murdered by Edward Krause, was taken to Petersburg by Dep uty Marshal Kildall. It will be held there for examination.
 The launch in which Krause is believed to have travelled to his mining properties, where it was found, after murdering it's owner was found yesterday. It will be re- membered that Sing Lee, a Chinese merchant of Petersburg, said that Krause had arrived in that city in the LueS row boat. The authori- ties believe that Krause tried to smuggle his way back to Gastineau Channel, and that he sunk the row boat to avoid suspicion. The small boat was found under one of the Petersburg docks.
 Deputy Kildall is making a search for Plunkett's body.

WAR PROTEST
1.-THE st. Paul Daily NeWs)

HC ot bdlly lNcWSJ
Undergraduates of the nation held
their demonstration against war and
capitalism Friday. ..
AS demonstrations go this one was
successful-at least from the stand
point of numbers involved. Had it
been confined to a war protest alone,
it would have met with greater pub
lie approval. But when there was
included the "communistic" propa-
ganda, the demonstration became fair
game for all those persons whose
scalps tingle at the mere mention of
the word.
Despite, however. this Red" tinge
the showing is highly significant and
worthwhile.
And it is highly proper that the
young men and women who are usual
ly the first to be drafted to pull pro-
fitable chestnuts out of the fire for
the older folks should assert their
refusal to become cannon fodder.
Whether they can help themselves, of
course, is another question but any
public protest at this time against the
senselessness of war helps the cause
Of organized peace.
1t is to be noted in passing that
the police of Los Angeles continued
their denial of American rights by
cracking the heads of couple of
feminine demonstrators. Thank God
we don't live in California.

as the federal government is con-
