COAST NATIVES HAVE ADEQUATE
 FOOD SUPPLY
North Star Captain Reports All Comfortably Fix
 ed for Winter

Charles w. Hawkesworth, Assistant to the Director, Bureau of Indian Affairs. conferred with Capt. Whit lam aboard the North Star shortly after the vessel docked this morn ing. There is no lack of food among the natives in the coast area any where between here and Point Bar row. Capt. Whitlam said. All the natives are comfortably fixed, he said. but the St. Lawrence Island natives are the most prosperous. About S36.00o worth of furs were shipped to Seattle for auctions by the two cooperative stores owned by the St. Lawrence Island natives at Gomble and Savoonga. Radio sta tons at both those points are also owned by the natives, Capt. Whit lam said. The foxes caught on St. Lawrence Island are the largest in Alaska. be said, and about 99 per cent of them are white, only an oc- oasional red appearing in the fur catches. Abundant supplies of food accounts for their large size. he said.
 A quantity of ivory was put aboard the North Star by the St Lawrence Island cooperative stores for sale at way ports, but the stock is now al- most entirely sold, only few of the smaller pieces remaining. Proceeds from the sale of the ivory are depos- tied by the ships officers in a Se- attle bank and credited to the stores
 After making five trips last sum- mer to Alaska with colonists and supplies for Matanuska, the North Star sailed from Seattle on August 8 and arrived at Point Barrow or September 2. after calling at the following ports: St. Michael, Una lakleet. Shaktoolk. Golovin, Solo, mon. Film, Nome, Kotzebue, KiVa- lima. Cape Prince of Wales, Point Hope and Wainwright. The motor ship is new enroute to Seattle where it will probably remain unti next Spring.
 The crew of the North Star in- cludes 30 men and the officers are Capt. s. T. L. Whitlam, master; l Lystad, first mate; c. Salenjus, sec ond mate; R. Jacogson, third mate H.

AMERICAN
DEMOCRACY

The life insurance industry pro-
vides the most vivid possible illustra-
ton Of the thrift and foresight Of
the American people.
Every dollar Of the billions in
vested in life insurance policies
means that someone has saved, has
wowrked, and has done what he
could to set up a defense against the
exigencies of the future. Every
time a premium is paid, or a new
policy sold, it means that depend
ents are being protected against the
unexpected death Of the wwage-tarn-
i, or that tn wwage-earner himself
is setting in motion machinery
whereby he will be assured of an in
dependent, comfortable old age.
This is a typically American
achievement. 1t is not by an acct
dent that the average American pos
sesses many times as much life in
uranc as the citizens Of other
countries. American individualism,
our heritage, creates an instructive
desre to provide for ones own fl
nancial future through ones own eff
forts. Few of our citizens wish to
be wards of charity or government
they want to attain old age, COM

BARRIERS TO MINING

On September %, the American
Mining Congress, metal mines divi-
sion, will meet in Chicago. Two of
the most important matters for dis
cussion are those old questions of
mine taxation and labor legilation.
Nothing can do more to hold min
ing back than erroneous, mistaken,
and ~disgrutled tax and labor policies
on the part Of the states and the fed
eral government. Even in the pros
porous days, mining was continually
in hot water over taxation. Legis-
lation was often proposed and some
times passed, that practically took
the profit out Of mining operations.
In these days, with the price of
the base metals at extremely low
levels, unfair taxation and legisla-
ton tending to create labor disturb
ances, could rob mining of whatever
chance it has to win recovery.

$1,000 CORPsEs

In the IS months that ended
June 20, 1885, $1,000 persons met
death in motor crashes in this
country. More than 100000 were
injured.
The bare statistics, though pro-
voking as they are, cannot give an
adequate picture of the horror of
major automobile accidents. Figures
cannot express broken bones
mangled bodies-crushed skulls
~obliterated features decapitated
bodies-and all the rest Of the re
suits Of fatal motor crashes. Nor
can figures picture the tragedy of
parentless children and broken
hearted dependents Of the victims of
recklessly driven cars.
In a recent article in Readers
Digest, +. G. Furness wrote: "A
first-class massacre is only a ques-
ton Of scale and thunderstorm
corpses are no deader than one.
Each shattered man, or
child who went to make up the &c.
900 corpses checked up last year had
to die a personal DEATH"
That is worth thinking about next
time you take the wheel of your car.
Driving at excessive speeds may, if
you get away with it, save you 10
minutes in a 50-mile run. IF you
don't get away with it, it may mean
your death, or the death of an inno-
cent party. Passing on hills and
curves, weaving through thick traf-
fic and taking other chances may
save you a minute or two more-or
it may mean a crushed body on the
pavement, its bones twisted and
broken, its eyes staring and sight
less.
It's up to you-to everyone who
drives a car. Is recklessness worth
Its horrible cost?

This report is written from Mos
cow, the fastest moving city in the
world. Living here one week gives
me the impression Of having dropped
on another planet.
Before commenting on Moscow,
however, l want to call your atten-
tion to an analysis Of the Ethiopian
Italian matter which should be Of
concern to readers of the AFRO
ALERICAN not only in America,
but throughout the world.
After talking to many men and
women, including representatives Of
the Ethiopian Government, news
pape editors and well-informed
leaders in England, France, Geneva,
Poland and Russia, it seems quite
clear to me that Ethiopia is likely to
furnish the spark which may set off
a worldwide conflagration which
will make the last war seem a minor
skirmish.
Ethiopia Has Even Chance.
Although from the very beginning
Ethiopia has had the diplomatic
cards stacked against her, she has
played the game SO s%killfully that
she is coming out of tbs phase of the
struggle a victor. When | left Ameri-
ca, Ethiopia's situation looked
gloomy to me.
dt still looks grave, but with more
facts upon which to base conclu-
sions, | feel now that whether or not
that country is driven to war to de-
fend herself from Italian aggression,
she has a ffty-fifty chance to win.
Secondary Skirmish.
I do not base this conclusion on
the secondary skirmish which has de-
veloped between England and France
on the one hand and Italy on the
other. Both England and France are
opposing Italy w but not against
the proposed division Of that coun-
try. Both are committed to a policy
Of reducing Ethiopia to some kind of
a protecterate until certain serious
factors, which | shall mention later,
arose. France was frankly commot-
ted to allowing Mussolini to go as
far as he wishtd in exploiting and
subjugating the kingdom.

ECONOMIC
HIGHLIGHTS
BY e. H0fer
is THE PUBLIC UTILITY ACT
UNCONSTITUTIONAL?

According to an article in the
Wall Street Journal, the recently
passed Public Utility Act of 1885,
which was forced through Congress
IN its closing hours, is just as un-
constitutional, in the view Of re-
sponsible attorneys, as was the
earlier version Of the bill over which
House and Senate committees
w~rangled for weeks without reach
ing a basis Of agreement.
The bill, as passed, delegates
sweeping powers to the Securities
and Exchange Commission and til e
Federal Power Commission to regu-
late, and in some cases to arbitrarily
force dissolution Of utility holding
companies. dn addition, the bill
gives these bureaus unprecedented
regulatory authority over operating
companies as well. This will result
IN substantial increases in the oper-
ating cost Of utility companies, mas
much as clerical and legal staffs will
have to be greatly increased as the
myriad provisions Of the act go in
to effect.
Under the terms Of the act, the Sc
curities and Exchange Commission
is given full power to determine
whether or not any dividends shall
be paid by utility. Another section
gives it authority to determine the
depreciation of a utility. Still an
other section will allow it to pre-
scribe utility accounting practices,
and to demand any type or report it
may wish. In brief, as the Journal
says, "The act makes the Securities
and Exchange Commission and t h e
Federal Power Commission a board
of directors over the entire public
utility industry"
Thus, the so-called compromise
bill which finally passed, is not only
a regulatory measure-it is a meas

may actually be transferred from the
owners to the properties to political
appointees. AS the law now stands
it is undoubtedly a measure whereby
a handful Of men with no invest
ment in a company they regulate,
a force it out Of business, at great
loss to investors. Those who hon
estly think that the act is designed
purely in the public interest and is
not damaging to utility stockhold-
ers, may be sadly surprised, because
Objectionable provisions Of the orig
inal bill, which was at first voted
down by the House, are still in it.
Constitutionality Of the bill is the
burning issue-and it should be de-
sided as soon as possible. The Ameri-
can people have had a taste of I'M
constitutional laws, and they don't
want any more if they can help it.

WHERE PROGRESS NEVER ENDS

During the past few years, un-
paralleled progress has been made
in improving the standards of SER
vice offered by the American rail-
roads. This progress has extended
to both freight and passenger trans
p~ortation-
In the freight branch, car short
ages have been virtually eliminated
the railroads are able to meet even
unexpected peaks of demand quickly
and efficiently. Freight train speeds
are considerably greater. Refriger-
ator ears have been bettered, thus
cutting down spoilage of vegetables.
Railroad detective departments have
been extremely successful in appre-
hending and Furnishing freight
thieves and, as a result, this type Of
crime is well under the levels of a
decade ago.
The passenger in the modern rail-
way car receives service which,
from the standpoints of cost, COM
fort, CELEBRITY and convenience, is
virtually unknown in any other
country-percisely as it was I'M
known in this country wen a few
years ago. Stream-lined trains and
locomotives have made deep cuts in
the time required for going between
the country's principal terminals
records believed unattainable have
been established, only to be broken
a week or two later. Air~-condition-
ing, the greatest health and comfort
achievement Of a generation, ha $
made the interior of cars comfort
able even in the worst extremes of
climate. Insulation against wheel,
locomotive and other external noises
has materially reduced disturbing
sounds. And the success of the rail-
roads in advancing the safety of
transport is well known-you are
much safer on a modern railroad
train than at home.
In addition, fares have been
greatly reduced, and many flyers"
that formerly commanded "extra
fare" now charge no more than or
binary trains.
This is a fine testimonial to the
leadership Of the railroads.&c. their
deeply-ingrained spirit Of public
service. Rail progress never ends

 Their sudden departure from Nome gave rise to much comment especial ly after stories were heard that the native had brought some gold bear ing rock to Nome with him. The native is reported to have come to Nome from the Barrow country after having made a discovery.
 The authenticity of the stampede, of course, is vague, as definite re- ports cannot be obtained but the public here has discussed the inci- dent with much interest for the past few days.
