The Washington News s-Letter OFFICE OF A. J. DIMOND Delegate from Alaska (By J. J. ECKLES)
 May Is, 1885.
 
Delayed in Transit)


 The Ketchikan Bond Issue Bill is probably the most widely known legislation of local importance that has been enacted by the present congress and its publicity was as un- sought and unexpected as it was free. The fact remains, nearly ev- eryone in Washington knows of Ketchikan and it's now famous bill authorizing the purchase of the light, water, and telephone utilities.
 The build-up of this advertising came in the following manner: The bill, having passed the House, was passed by the Senate on May 3rd, and immediately sent to the White House for the approval of the Pres ident. As is customary, before sign ing the bill the President sent it to the Department of the Interior for it's report. Several days passed with no action being taken by the Pres ident, so Delegate Dimond called the White House to inquire when the bill was likely to be signed, and was informed that approval of the bill was being withheld until it was returned from the Interior Depart ment with the report. The Dele gate then called the Department, and pointing out the urgency of the legislation, requested that everything possible be done to expedite its re- turn to the White House. The De- partment was entirely in agreement and said that the report would be forthcoming immediately.
 Two more days and no further word on the bill, so the Delegate began to make almost daily calls on the White House inquiring as to the approval of the bill, but the reply was still the same, the bill and report thereon had not been re ceived from the Secretary of the Interior. Day by day, the ten days were slowly passing that would make the bill a law without the presidents signature. After deduct ing a day for transmittal, one for Saturday and another for Sunday, the time would expire at midnight, May 18th.
 On the morning of May 18th, the President forwarded to Congress a letter from Secretary Ickes reading:
 q regret to report the loss of en- rolled bill H. R. 6084 authorizing bond issue for Ketchikan, Alaska, which was delivered to my office on May by messenger from the White House. The bill was receipted for by messenger at my door, who has no recollection, however, of this particular document.
 "The practice is for the messen- ger to deliver enrolled bills to the man in charge of the incoming mails to my office, who sends them to the file room for recording. There is no record of the receipt of this bill by the recording clek. l have caused everyone to search all pap

Learning from NRA Experience.
(Kansas City Star. )

In a statement of future policy the MIRA govern ing board declares pointedly against both price fixing and enforced production control The only exceptions might be in few disordered and possibly the natural resource industries. With eye to the doubtless drastic revision of the recovery act by Congress the MIRA board is frank in asserting that the goal sought is the establishment of condi tions under which, in free and open market, com petition may determine fair price"
 It also is certain that, while the strategy of policy must find expression in multitude of de- cisions" yet tits end is single-an economy not of scarcity, but of plenty"
 Thus virtually are to be tossed out of the window two of the obstructive features in operation of the NE2A to date Existing codes not to be changed to eliminate price control fixing and arbitrary
 limitation of production until Congress acts if 1t is to act to extend the NF2A beyond it's expiration date of June 16 But If the extension is to be provided it should be on the definite condition of such changes, and of others well Another notably in prospect is limitation of the entire pulsory provision Of the recovery act to industries that are clearly interstate in character This if it could be applied with fair degree of praccability, would many thousands of industries of na as to whether any reasonable number of them could be induced to come in voluntarily.
 But the NFsA administrators evidently are aware of the impracticable and urtfui policies that have been at work. They would learn from experience, which, however may prove costly to the country The real lesson is the minimum of control that is required by public interest. That is more likely to be found in prohibition of such obvious abuses child labor and sweatshop hours and wages than in multitude of attempted regula- tions of whatsoever sort

HOSPITAL DAY.

Tomorrow National Hospital Day will be observed in Juneau and throughout the country. Each year this day dedicated to the hospitals of the country and the doctors nurses, and personnel that con stitute their working staffs is observed either on close to the birthday anniversaries of Florence Nightingale, born May 12 1920 whose heroic nursing at Scutari among the British forces during the Crimean War, won worldwide recognition, and started modern nursing.
 During the past year Juneau's St. Anns Hospital treated a total of 1,115 cases. Of this number 215, were outpatients who to the hospital for only part of a day
 According to data gathered by the American Medical Association, and published in its Journal March 31 1884, (the latest report at hand), during 1893 the United States had 1,027O46 beds available in 6,437 hospitals. Seven million, thirty-seven thou sand nine hundred eighty patients ad- mitted to these hospitals and the average of the hospitals was 81O271.
 One-third of all births in 1883. were in hospitals totang 709,276 babies.
 It is impossible to compute or mentally grasp the great work that hospitals and the staffs that compose them doing for national health allevia- ton of suffering, and the physical rehabilitation of millions of patients

HUEY DOESN'T LIKE TT.

A movie version of the career of Huey Long, including his battle of the Sands Point washroom, was deleted from film recently shown in a New Orleans theatre.
 It looks like Huey doesn't like to receive the treatment he gives out. at least doesn't want Louisiana people to him getting it even in play acting. Evidently his dictatorship and ship has extended to the movies.
 To annoy on extrovert such Huey, who seems to revel in any kind of publicity good bad the deleed scenes must be strong indeed and should prove most interesting to those whose film diet is not prescribed by the Kingfish's edcts

The home steaders" have been picked from great number of applicants, chiefly sturdy farm CTS of the fllrthest north, who are aecus- toned to cold winters and who would under stand farming conditions in land Of bit ter cold alleviated with brighest sunshine. Most of the heads of families are in their early thirties No inducements of comfort were held out On the other hand, every thing was done to discourage the migration of any but the hardy and the courageous. They were informed that it was exceedinly cold in winter, that mosquitoes were ter rible" in summer and that it was long way from home though within reach by airplane.
 But these migrants, as well as the other applicants prefer to endure the advertised hardships rather than be placed or kept on the relief rolls The "transients" are now presumably on their way, and in few days their "Mayflower' will be carrying larger number of passengers than the original May flower bore to less hoSpitable coast. In their cargo will be tractors and trucks, COWS and horses, and supplies for a hospital and colony dairy, as well as cherished articles for the new homes One does not have to seek other Government motive-such as increas or for defensive purposes = for this new pioneer enterprise It is but a recognition of the spirit incarnate in America that is ever seeking new and free frontierS-physcal, intellectual or spiritual.

AMELIA SCORES AGAIN. .

Amelia Earthart Putnam, the flying Lindy as the world has to. know her, scores again. From Mexico City she wings her way to Newark. 2,l0o miles. in 14 hours and 9 minutes non-stop fine aerial achievement
 First this daring young queen of the skies broke into aviation history by spanning the Atlantic Ocean in plane with others the first to accomplish the feat. Then she tried it solo, and succeeded, even as Lindy. Early this year she set out from Honolulu alone by plane and set her wheels down in Oakland with scarcely a bobble. Now she flashes across 2,l0o miles in record time to add another laurel the large crown she already wears well and without self-sought publicity
 It's true, of course that she has the best planes money can buy. Born of affluence she married a wealthy publisher and is able to satisfy her every whim in things aviation. But despite that she has proven ability and all the ingredients that go to make up the good flier. Many other women have flashed brilliantly in the air only to gradually drop out of the picture. There are still some such as Laura Ingalls, Amy Johnson Moison and Gladys ODonnell who setting fine records But like Lindy there is only Amelia Earhart in aviation. There may be scores of fliers just as good IS Colonel Lindbergh and perhaps there are other Mrs. Putnam but they haven't got that little something that it takes to rise above the crowd
 It's true in all walks of life Every now and again there arises from among us some individual apparently imbued with the capacity and ability to achieve to whom we must doff the hat. And a good thing it is. if nothing else, it makes the rest of dullards plug little harder and gives the rising generation goal to shoot at

The Answer to 1eeIief Rolls.
(Kansas City Star.o

The long and steadily continued increase in the numbers the relief rolls of the country has been disconcerting to say the least, in view of evidences of recovery progress in the last year or two. But in citing of those evidences in his latest radio address the President remarked that flor the first time in five years the relief rolls have declined instead of increased during the winter months and that they still declining"
 The President gave figures They are SUD- piled however, by Relief Administrator Hopkins, who reports that relief rolls in March the latest full month covered) carried 147,304 fewer persons than for January It is to be inferred from the Presi- dents statement that the decline has continued in April But Administrator Hopkins gives the total number on relief as POE million The decline over three months, therefore, was approximately seven tenths of 1 per cent. That is extremely small yet it is significant that it came in winter months when previously there had been increases, to far larger figure.
 If the works-relief program should go forward in accordance with expectations, which is still to be shown total of 312 million employable persons would be taken off the relief rolls As the average number of dependents represented by each of these employables is four, it is that the relief rolls thus would be decreased by about IA million leaving the others to be provided for by the States and local communities Thus it is expected that, after transition period of few months the Govern ment would be taken out of the business of direct relief The Government would be spending more of course, to provide the jobs substitute for direct relief
 The final answer will be found only in degree of recovery that will permit the bulk of workers now idle, to be put on Government jobs to be reabsorbed into private industry.

A Administration Critics Terse ely Told They
 Are Self-lmportant

WASHINGTON, May l0-AnsWer- ing New Deal critics, Harry L. Hop kins asserted today that there is a small but noisy group whose think ing about national well-being be- gins and ends where their pocket books are.
 This and other remarks by Hop kins are interpreted as a reply to criticism which the United States Chamber of Commerce aimed re- gently at the Administration pro- Dosal for old age pensions and un- employment insurance.
 Hopkins appealed for support of the Social Security work relief pro- grams
 The group he assailed has "all the known machines for making noi,e. They sit in pompous conclave now and then and bring forth such ideas as giving the needy and un- employed a ham sandwich and then letting it go at that"

With clinical calmness, completely devoid oi "ballyhoo," romance which has been evident ir some Of the outside newspaper comment on tht Matanuska Valley project the New York Times re- gently printed the following editorial relative to the first Alaskan Rural Rehabilitation project:
 NEW FRONTIER
 There is frequent mention of the passing of the pioneer period and of the American frontier but there is after all a little of the latter left is indicated by the steps being taken by the Federal Relief Administration to transport two hundred families from farming districts of Michigan Wisconsin and Minnesota and to assist them in making a fresh beginning in Alaska. The Govern nent is assuming a guiding and generous part in the migration and settlement It has sent several hundred "transients" eco basis carpenters and other skilled artisans, to prepare log houses to become homes for the settlers" These houses will be better than those of the earlier settle ments in the Mississippi Valley and the mountain regions beyond, for it is reported that they will cost about S3 900 each, equipped with running water but without electricity or baths. The settlers will each have thirty years in which to discharge the debt
 The land which they to occupy is a fertile valley 125 miles north Of Seward, with room for $50 more families at the rate

to Secretary of State Hulls recon-

bill.
