ALASKA FOR THE UNEMPLOYED :?

In Soviet Russia the best workers form huge group o shock troops who sent from place to place where their services best be utilized But for the great numbers of unemployabesth ncompetents the unhealthy the lazy there is only solution: Siberia.
 By millions they being shipped to Siberia There they have been promised chance to make good They exempted from taxation and other advantages granted but the task they face is far greater than that faced by the pioneers in America
 Thus according to John Powell of the Chicago Tribune foreign staff when soviet officials "boast there unem pIoymen in the R they only technically correct for those who do fit into the ndustralzaon pro- gram the socalzed collective farm program in European Siberia
 So it is understandable why soviet official asked Powell n all seriousness why President Roosevelt doesn't ship all the American unemployed to Alaska"
 Such solution would be the Russian solution. Ger tany bears resemblance to the American system and Nor could Alaska do than hold up hands in mortified protest the bares suggestion of such eventu aity.
 Still, there some wisdom in the officials further comment talking about the soviet migration to Siberia offset to Japanese activities in Nanchurla he argued that the United States has similar problem in Alas ka and that could not hold the Territory unless 1t fills 1t up and industriaizes it"
 Regardless of the merits of the suggestion the fact that Alaska needs population and ndusriazation well known In 30 years population has shown increase even for temporary periods And this fact faces despite consider able industrializing the years.
 The proposed first migration of unemplOyed-not un- empoyabes-to the Matanuska Valley step toward the peoping of Alaska And while many the Territory view said in favor of the plan Certainly, the experiment will be watched with interest both in and out of Alaska itself Subscribe the Daily Nugget $2 % per month by carrier

THE PRINTER IS TO BLAME

It may be sad, but still 'tis true, There's one thing all we humans do And that is, blame the printer. He does his best, without our help For all we do is stand and yelp, Then cuss and blame the printer We write our manuscript by pen. To read it is beyond our ken. Yet we expect the printer To work it out and get it right. We think not of his time or sight; If Wrong--We blame the printer. We hold our stuff until the last, Then try to rush it through so fast The printer gets showed under. But still we camp upon his trail, And prod him on with woeful tale Or rant and roar like thunder. He shoots it through, the proof we But find the job is not right yet. We chop that proof to splinters. Ii takes two days before he knows Just what each hieroglyphic shows A dud lot are those printers. The jobs delivered Some relief To know we're through with rush
 and grief,
 We ought to thank the printer. But, no, The poor mans luck is out He oVercharged us without a doubt Once more we cuss and blame
