TERRITORIAL
 6. OF 6. PUSHES
 MAIL CONTRACT
Radios Dimond, Post Of- flee Department Urging
 Northland Agreement

In an effort to get early action on awarding contract to the Northland Transportation Company to carry mail to Southeast Alaska, the Ter ritorial Chamber of Commerce today forwarded radiograms to flask a Delegate Anthony J. Dimond and the Post Office Department in Wash ington, urging that action be taken immediately.
 The Chamber pointed out the poor mail service now, with only two ships plying on the Alaska line car rying mail, and with often as much as eight days mail coming in at one time. Also it stressed the fact that the mail from the South and the mail from the west often arrives in Juneau on the same day, thus mak- ing a weeks delay in forwarding correspondence to the South that might come from the Westward to offices and business houses here.
 Business in Alaska is being se- verely crippled as 9 result of the inadequate mail service, the Cham Der declared in the messages.
 It has been anticipated here that the Northland Company would be awarded a contract for mail on October 1, but this has failed to materialize and the latest word from Washington stated no definite &C., tion had as yet been taken on the matter.
 The Secretary's office of the Ter ritorial Chamber had a message from the Sitka Chamber of Commerce this morning pointing out the made quacy of the mail service to that ci-y and requesting some action be taken

Corn, American Product,
Leads Cotton and Wheat

In the days Of Pharoah and Ioseph,
we read that there was corn In Egypt.
But the corn referred to was wheat
and barley, not the corn Of the western
world that we know, says writer In
the Montreal Herald. When they
speak Of corn in Great Britain they
mean either barley, oats, or wheat.
Corn In the western world means In
dian corn or maize.
When white men first came to the
New world. they found the native in
dams cultivating kind Of grain they
had never seen before 30 they gave 1t
the name of Indian corn; 1t was then
that our acquaintance with corn be-
gan. 1t 10 an American product, and
II Is In the United States that corn Is
most widely grown. Three-fourths OF
the worlds supply is grown here, and
the value Of the corn crop Ia greater
than either the cotton crop or the
wheat crop.
In the United States corn Is grown
chiefly as a grain crop; In Canada
It Is grown more as a green crop, and
converted into silags, as winter feed

Ten Amendments Make Up
American Bill of Rights

The first ten amendments form what
is usually called the American bill Of
rights, following the English bill Of
rights of 1889. The first congress in
Its first session, September %, 1889.
proposed - amendments for ratifica-
ton; Of these, the first two failed to
be adopted. The resolution Of con-
gress explaining this began as follows {:
1.-THE conventions of number Of the
states having at the time Of their
adopting the Constitution expressed a
desire in order to prevent mlsconstruc-
ton or abuse of it's powers, that fur
Their declatory and restrictive clauses
should be added: And as extending
the ground of public confidence In the
government will best insure the bene-
f1cent ends of its institution. :"
There had been a great deal Of opposl-
ton to the new Constitution in many
states.
The chief objection in Massachusetts
was that 1t did not contain bill Of
rights guaranteeing religious liberty,
freedom of speech and of the press,
etc. To meet this objection the FEEDER
alists had promised to support amend
ments If only the state would ratify the
Constitution as it stood. They were
adopted June Is, 1890. Besides the
rights already mentioned. they guaran-
tee against arbitrary arrest and un-
reasonable search, excessive fines, bail
and Imprisonment and assert the right

An Object Lesson
: From Europe
By RAYMOND PITCAIRN
National Chairman
.Sentinels OF the Republic.

They that can glue up essential liberty
to obtain little temporary safety deserve
neither liberty nor safety"
So spoke Benjamin Franklin, sage of
the Revolution and of our early Re-
public His words ring as true today as
they did century and half ago.
Turn to the news from modern Eu-
rope II you would see the evidence.
What do we read?
Reports Of government threatening to
plunge its people into war of conquest
which statesmen fear may embroil all
Europe.
Reports Of government elevating re-
ngious and educational intolerance to
the status of national policy.
Reports of government sacrificing the
freedom Of its populace on the affairs of
Communism and RECOMMENDATION.
Under what types of governments are
these things happening? The answer
= clear.
Under those whose people, for the
sake of . promised-and unfulfilled-
economic safety, have delivered their
essential liberties into the hands of
highly centralized NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. a
dictatorship or a communized bureau
cEacy.
These are the dangers which the
Founders of our nation knew and fore
saw when they wrote Constitution
that denied despotic power to politicians
and vested all ultimate authority in the
people.
These are the tragic possibilities which
men and women who love America seek
10 avert today when they fight efforts
to weaken those guarantees of personal
liberty and opportunity that are written
into our Fundamental Law.
They know from the lessons now
apparent In Europe = that Franklin's
warning could be rewritten to read:
They that can give up essential
liberty to obtain little temporary
safety lose both liberty and safety"
Don't let that happen to America.

Baseball's reaction to the rein
statement of Alabama Pitts:
Alabama Pitts "a telegram to

dent, Louisville baseball club
"Pitts paid the penalty. It was
unjust to penalize him further.
The reinstatement suits me-"
William Neal. general manager,
Louisville Colonels-"Judge Ian.
dis saw it right. I'm glad he
reinstated him."
AL Mamaux, manager Of the
Albany Senators-"Nice work."
Manager Charley Grimm, Chi.
cago Cubs-"I think Judge Ian.
dis decision was great. Pitts
should get a chance. In a re.
cent conversation with Joe Cam
bria, owner of the Albany club,
I learned Pitts has a lot of stuff
on the playing field. Cambria
said he is already a Double-A
ball player and he has a good
chance of making good"
Manager frankie Frisch, st.
Louis Cardinals-"Fine decision.
I'd like to see Pitts make good
with Albany. At any rate he'll
get his chance, and that's what
the ball players wanted"
Frank J. Navin, owner of the
Detroit Tigers and vice president
of the American League-"Judge
Landis' decision was all right. I
think Pitts should have a chance
to play"

years of a sentence for robbery,
then added:
"If I wasn't positive that 1
could make good on my own
from now on, I'd never go on to
the ball field after all the hula
balOO that's been made about
my case"
AL Mamaux, the Albany'S team
manager, who was a major league
pitcher when Pitts was a kid in
the Navy, and who got out Of bed
this morning to go to the ball park
and pitch to Alabama SO he could
get batting practice, threw an
other one.
''Nice Work, Ed"
Pitts big, capable appearing
hands swung the bat. Every ounce
of his ITS pounds was behind the
swing. The ball sizzled into deep
left field. And Al yelled:
"Nice Work, Ed"
Alabama grinned. When he
grins, he grins from ear to ear.
It's a question who is happiest
over the ruling by Judge Lands
that Pitts may play baseball-Ala'
bama, who wanted what many eX-
convicts want, but what few get,
a chance to make good; Warden
Lewis E.. Lawes, of Sing Sing, who
has done everything he could to
make a man of Pitts and to get
chance for him; Johnny
Evers, Albany general manager,
who said he would quit
baseball after 80 years in the
game if the adverse decision OF
President w. G. Bramham and the
executive committee of the Ma
tional Association of Min Or
Leagues were not overruled by
Lands.
"It's the biggest thrill I've
had in all my years in baseball"
So said Evers, who is grayer
now than when he was a king
pin second baseman on the pen
nant winning Chicago Cubs of 80
years ago, but whose jaw jutS just
as belligerently when there is an
issue worth fight:
LaweS OverjOyed
Warden Lawes was overjoyed.
So was his wife who, the minute
she received word of Judge Lands
ruling, announced it to the pris-
oners over the 1oudspeaker system
in Sing Sing.
Alabama. of course, is as happy
as a duck"
Evers and Mamaux won't let
Pitts play ball tonight because he
never has played under lights and
they want to give him several
nights of practice. and because
they think he needs several days
to quicken his batting eye against
pitching of a brand superior to
that which he faced when he
played on the Sing Sing team.
Pitts isn't boastful. but he is
determined, and he is almost un-
believably ambitious.
