Peace and the Plain Man Is Book Pertinent to
 Present Situation

Norman Angell's "Eeace and the Plain Man" is one of the many books in the Juneau Public Library which readers will find highly pertinent to an understanding of present inter national problems.
 Written by 8 Briton, nd there fore accepting the League of Nations as a fact rather than trou5li 2 possibility. the book spproa ehas the problem of international peace from the standpoint of the individual, and poses the troubling qlestion: "AJ what price do we want peace2 Or do we really, without knowing it. desire war?v
 Angell thinks it may be possible that we do. He remembers the World War fought ito make the world safe for democracy, and wonders if that long -espoused cause were not an ex- cuse rather than a reason, since:
 That is the tragedy Of war We enter the greatest war of history, the ultimate purpose of which, apart from national defense, we declare to be to vindicate the principle of de- mocracy, to save democracy from the ruthlessness of great military states to end the Prussian concep- tion of a highly centralized auto crated and regimented society; to preserve individual freedom, par ticularly as expressed in parliamen- tary government. A million of our youth gave their lives for those ends. We win the war. And then we find that after all democracy is a mistake; that autocracy is the right kind of government; that liberty Is an illusion, liberalism an out-moded creed; that Freedom, in Mussolini's phrase, is stinking corpse that must be buried; that autocracy far from being thing to fight, is thing to initiate. The thing on behalf oi which a million of our youths are slain we now declare to be some thing we don't want at all. Oui deepest values and ideals have by an unnoticed almost unconscious process, gradually been abandoned and turned upside down; what be- fore the war we thought good, has become evil, what we then thought evil has become good; what we hated before the war we now admire"
 To which, without pretending tC solve the international question, An gell offers the following individual solution as the only practical one
 Tn practical politics it resolves itself into the question of what we are prepared to pay for peace; oi being able to choose knowingly be- tween what we surrender in the way of certain emotional satisfactions

GRIDLEY BACK FROM
 TRIP TO WRANGELL

Ross A. Gridley, State Engineer Inspector for the PWA, arrived last night from Wrangell aboard the Northwestern. Gridley spent five days in Wrangell on public works business.
 He reports that two separate applications for street and sewer improvements there have been com bined into one, in order to expedite Federal approval. The city sought $6, GOO for sewer work and $l3,000 for streets in addition to a 5000 grant. .

 The Senator says he would not be surprised if there were two Democratic tickets and two Repub- lican tickets in the field; and he expects considerable prominence to attach also to the Socialist and Prohibition tickets.
 Such a situation might appear at first glance the dream of some enc who had eaten too much Christmas candy. Yet, by one meth cd of reasoning it is possible to conclude that, if anything, Senator lewis may have understated the case.

IRRECoNCILABLE ELEMENTS

Tn no recent campaign nave there been so many diverse and seem- ingly irreconcilable political ele- inents struggling for place in the sun. If each realized it's aspira- tions of establishing itself as a na- tional party there would be more party labels in America than in England or France.
 At least seven of these groups are reputed by their leaders, and by some others, to number their ad- herents in millions:
 The Democrats who are content to follow MT. Roosevelt.
 The Northern Democrats who under the current leadership of Alfred E. Smith, are dissatisfied with MT. Roosevelt.
 The Southern Democrats who are in revolt against MT. Roosevelt and many of whom refused in 1928 to support MT. Smith, now in process of organization under the lead of Governor Talmadge of Georgia.
 The Republicans who favor a di- rect, right wing opposition to MT Roosevelt, as represented by the protestations of Herbert Hoover.
 The Republicans who repudiate both MT. Roosevelt and MT. Hoov- CT, and are gathering together to support Senator Borah. 1 The Democrats and Republicans

Kadashan May oct Three Years on His llth
 Conviction

A possible three years in prison faces David Kadashan, Hoonah h. dian, as result of his arrest by city police last night on charge of being drunk and disorderly.
 Kadashan was recently charged with being drunk and throwing a bottle at Hoonah man, and was convicted here of assault with dan gerous weapon. He was given three year suspended sentence by Judge George F. Alexander, and was order ed to report to the deputy marshal at Hoonah each month.
 In suspending the term, Judge AL exander pointed to Kadashan's rec ord of ten consecutive convictions on drunk and disorderly charges, and warned him that the eleventh would mean prison.

who believe that the only saliva tion of the country is adoption of the old-age pension plan of Dg. Townsend.
 The Democrats and Republicans who can see no salvation except in the political precepts of Father Coughlin.
 The seven groups thus snumea- ated do not include the Socialists who boiled nearly a million vote. in 1892; the Prohibitionists. now recognizing with @ new zeal for the repeal of repeal the Farmer Labor Party which controls Mime sota; the Progressive Party which controls Wisconsin; nor the Com munist, Social-Labor, Liberty ant National parties, all of which ell tered tickets in the election oi 1882.

 Wiley originally had planned tc try for a new world altitude record for airplanes, and possibly accom- piished this, although it never was proved.
 But he realized the limitations of the Winnie Mae and felt if he could arrange to drop the landing gear the increased speed from less ened weight and air resistance would result in performance suf- ficient to hang up a record for America that would hold for some time.
 With that idea in mind, Phillips sent Wiley and crew of mechan- ics and engineers to the plant where the ship was manufactured and an arrangement was worked out whereby with the movement of lever in the cockpit the land- ing gear would drop away.
 This, of course, made a "belly landing" necessary, but the danger involved did not disturb Wiley since he knew he could obtain added performance.
