Increase Attributed Chiefly to Cotton, Automobiles,

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-United States exports to the rest of the world, including Italy, are shown by the Department of Commerce to have increased in November over october of this year and November of last year.
 The general gain, contrary to the usual seasonal trend, is attributed by the Department chiefly to larg- CT shipments of unmanufactured cotton, automobiles and petroleum products.
 Compared with November, 1924 the major gains in shipments to Italy were non-metallic minerals including petroleum; metals, man. ufactured goods, machinery and ve- hicles.

mum; and that window displays be prohibited.
 ' Place of Sale-Sale Of beer or liquor should be confined to premises used exclusively for that purpose, except restaurants serv- ing beer and wine with meals (the food costing more than the drink i, and drug stores dispensing liquor upon prescription.
 8 Minors-Whereas the present law provides that beer and liquor be not sold" to minors, we re- commend that the law be amended so as to read given or sold" We further recommend that minors be prohibited from entering or fre- quenting places where beer or li- quor Is dispensed; and licensee shall not employ minors in any capacity.
 3 Location-We recommend that no beer parlor or liquor dispensary or store be closer than 400 feet to schools. churches, hospitals, or phanages. See present law which makes such a provision for schools only; and also CHA. 1913 sec. 2584.
 10 Habitual Drunkards-- There is no habitual drunkard statute at the present time A stringent law should be carefully worked out and passed at this session of the Legis- lature.
 These suggestions are the re- suit of a study of local conditions; of the Compiled Laws of Alaska; of interviews with the members of the Liquor Control Board, and oth- CT public officials, both of the Department of Justice and the Municipality; and from comments, criticisms, and suggestions receiv- ed through correspondence had with numerous qualified observers in the different Divisions of the Territory.

MINISTER'S GIVE
 VIEW ON LIQUOR
 T0LECISLATURE
Gastineau Chan nel Asso- citation Makes Suggestions
 as to Regulations

The Juneau Douglas Ministerial Association, members of which are Protestant Clergymen on Cast i- neau Channel, has addressed a letter, with recommendations, rela- tive to liquor control. signed by the Rev Erling K. Olafson of the Resurrection Lutheran Church, as President, and the Rev. David Waggoner, of the First Presbyter- ian Church as secretary, to the members of the Twelfth Legislative Session.
 A copy of the letter follows:
 The members of the Juneau Douglas Ministerial Association are vitally interested in promoting tenn perance and sobriety within the Territory, and in that connection we have made a study and inves- tigation of the present situation.
 The majority of the members of our organization are in favor of absolute prohibition of alcohol as beverage. Therefore we do not wish to place ourselves in the po- sition of sponsoring any of the regulatory liquor laws. We do wish, however, to make the following suggestions regar ding existing weaknesses, with view to possi- ble improvement.
 Local Option-We feel that cities, towns, and communities should be given an opportunity to decide whether they wish to per- init or prohibit the sale of alco- holic beverages within their boun- diaries.
 (a) By election in incorporated cities and towns.
 (b) We call your attention ito the old laws regarding local op- ton outside incorporated tonws. See section 2537 CHA. 1913.

one of the most baffling mysteries ever presented, with a strange and unusual denouement.
 The story deals with a theatrical family, the identity of which is not disclosed, in which there are sev- eral brilliant players. In addition to the mystery angle the picture takes the spectators behind the wings, giving them a peep into the private lives of the folk of the stage. It also carries a strong TO- mantle angle.
 MT Robinson, the star, is sup ported by an unusally large and talented cast. Miss Astor has the leading feminine role opposite him, while Ricardo Cortez plays the heroic role of Miss Astor's lover. Louis Calhern is the diabolical hus- band who comes to an untimely end while Mae Clarke has an inn portant part as an actress in the play which is the background for the drama.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1935-02-13

2.-Licenses-At the present time there is no agreement between of ficials-municipal and Territorial as to their responsibility in the matter of granting and enforcing licenses. This responsibility must be very definitely fixed before there can be any hope for im- provement. In this connection feel that the law should specifically provide:
 (a) No beer or liquor license of any kind shall be issued to any person who has been convicted of a felony.
 (b) Provision should be made for the advertising of applications for licenses, so as to permit oppor- tunity for protest. Such notices of application to be advertised in the press, and in public places for thirty days.
 3 Enforcement-It is our opin- ion that some definite arrange ment should be made for financing the enforcement of these laws. It has been officially reported that to the beginning of this year ap- proximately $l50,00O in revenue has been received by the Territory from the licensing and sale of H. quor, but no Territorial appropri- ation has been made for the en- forcement of the Liquor Laws. In this connection we wish to point out:
 (a) There are at present no in- vestigating officers whose duty it is to study and investigate cases of probable or actual violations. This authority should be specifically delegated and proper provision made to bear the cost thereof.
 (b) An abatement law should be enacted.
 4 Sunday Closing-Section 49S2 CHA. 1883 is the present law. It might be well to make Sunday closing specific section in the new Liquor Law.
 5 Beer Parlors- Beer Parlors have been cause of many abuses. We recommend that no music, en- tertainment or dancing be per- mitted on such premises.
 6 Advertising-In the interest of temperance, we recommend that advertising of beer and liquor be reduced by regulation to a mini

MARCH STARS IN NEW
 FILM TONIGHT I
Capitol Presents Fine Cast in Unusual Picture as
 Vehicle for Star

Death Takes a Holiday" Fred ric Marchs new starring picture opening tonight at the Capitol The atre, is based upon an unusual theme, according to Maxwell An derson, who colla b orat e d with Gladys Lehman in the adaptation of the original play of the same name by Alberto Casella, adapted into English by Walter Ferris.
 The story of Death Takes a Holiday is built on the idea that Death, curious to discover what men hold so dear in life, to under stand why people fear him so, emerges from the shadow, takes on the human form of dashing, TO- mantle lover, and for three days tests all the human illusions.
 He becomes the guest of honor at gay house-party, keeping his true identity secret, and dazzles the young women present with his beauty, his wit and his mysterious importance. M
 With each of them he seeks to find the real thrill of love, for he has been told that, of all human emotions, love is the strongest and dearest. But with each successive sweetheart, he fails to find the thrill he expects, until at last, he captivates the heart of one girl and discovers the true meaning of life and love. Dreading to reveal his real personality, he puts the fatal moment off until the very last second of his holiday"
 Supporting March in Death Takes 8 Holiday" are Evelyn Ven able, recently seen with Dorothea Wieck in Cradle Song," Sir Guy Standing and Kent Taylor, and several distinguished actors import ed from the New York stage, not ably Katherine Alexander, Helen Westley and Henry Travers.
 According to Manager Cliff Daig- Ter, the production has been hand somely directed and beautifully mounted, to make this picture one of the outstanding pictures of the season.

General belief was freely expressed
among grain traders that the giant
onward sweep of black rust, unchecked
both north and south Of the Cana
dian border, would be apt to keep the
United States on domestic basis,
leaving no margin for wheat exports
this season, and that Canada,s recent
huge surplus supply of wheat may
no longer be burden.

were during the first week in jan

but, in view of the poor traffic re-
suits and discouraging earnings state
ments, the record has been good.
The utilities have made an even
more surprising recovery. Like the
industrials, they made their low for
the year March IA, reaching their
high July 8, since which time they
have moved in irregular fashion, but
slightly lower, responding to the po-
litical situation In washington.
Another situation which troubles the
conservatives is the extraordinarily
high level at which earnings are be-
ing capitalized. This applies to the
industrial stocks and especially to the
higher priced issues, the "blue chips.

of operators is Influenced by the ap-
proach of a presidential election cam
paign. Neither business nor the stock
market can be expected to ignore this
struggle, which, as it now appears,
will be between the Right and the
Left. Once the market makes UP its
mind what the issues are actually to
be and which side is likely to triumph,
1t will readjust itself accordingly, but
in the meantime there is too much un-
certainty to justify prolonged ad-
vance. At least that is the argu-
ment.
Along the same line is the fear of
labor disturbances and the dislike of
the Wagner labor disputes law, to-
gether with other legislation whose
fate Is still to be decided.
No date has been set for the ad-
journment of Congress, and that is
another bearish factor. This writer
