LANDON COOPERATION

It becomes astonishing to learn from routine re- ports the extent to which Kansas under the admins traton of Gov Ali M Landon has refused to CO., operate with the other States and the Federal Gov ernment in fighting the depression.
 In his speech accepting the Republican presi- dential nomination, Candidate Landon said: The record shows that in 1883 the primary need was jobs for the unemployed. The record shows that in 1886 the primary need still is jobs for the unemployed The time has come to stop this fumbling with re- covery.1 ntst
 Of course Candidate Landon ignored the sum- report of the Alexander Hamilton Institute that showed almost exactly six million of those who were unemployed in 1883 had secured jobs in 1886. But let us look at the record of Governor Landon on getting jobs. for the unemployed.
 Throughout 1892 Franklin D. Roosevelt stressed the need for employment exchanges, not only to

This is American Legion convention week Start ing Wednesday the Department of Alaska will begin its four-day sessions in the city Delegates will be assembled here from all parts of the Territory and there will be quite large delegation from Seattle Men and women they represent our finest type of sound American citizens.
 Juneau is singuarly honored in having the vet erans of 20 years ago assemble in the city. It is distinctive tribute to the Afford John Bradford Post of Juneau the largest in the Territory and to the citizens of this community.
 It is the biggest convention the capital city will have this year With the cooperation of the entire community it can be the best Let all extend the hand of welcome to the delegates and their friends who arrive for the concave. Let us all get those caps the Legonnares selling to help defray the expenses of their convention, and them. Enter into the spirit of the occasion, and help the veterans and auxiliary make this the greatest Legion ton held in the north.
 Much is said about Americansm these days. In the Legion finds the very backbone of American ism. It is organization that hasefor it's purpose other doctrine but Americanism. Faiths, creeds politics have part in the American Legion. It stands vigorously only for God and country Its pro- gram of child welfare is outstanding in the nation and It's various other endeavors based solely on the premise of building stronger and more virile America The Grand Army of the Republic was Sucn all oBahlZdtio puI IL IS pdSSllg rdpluy lioih the picture The Legion, too will pass but today it is at it's zenith. The veterans of the World War will go down before the onslaught of years, just as the G. A. R., but its efforts toward building stronger nation and sounder people will live
 Let us extend the hand of friendship and well come to the men and women of the American Legion. Make their stay memorable one. Let their return to Juneau this week be just rousing acclaim when they went away in IT, youngsters fighting for a principle. They older now but still fight ing for the principle of America and her institutions just vigorously and stout-hearted they did 19 years ago.

Horoscope 'sThe stars incline
 but do not cOnpel'

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER l, 1886
 As the month begins friendly stars smile upon the planet Earth, &C., cording to astrology. Benefic as- poets dominate, while certain ad- verse influences are active.
 This day is suspicious for ad vertising and for all forms of pub licity. Printing presses will run overtime through coming weeks, it is indicated.
 The planetary government en- courages new business contracts and the signing of important legal pa pers. Good news regarding the business outlook will stimulate trade.
 Women are subject to the best possible direction of the stars which should aid many to achieve high places in the professions, although obstacles will be encountered.
 Good luck is indicated for those who wed under this sway. It seems to promise domestic harmony and intellectual sympathy, but there may be financial struggles.
 Theatres will flourish in the com ing season when both stage and screen will benefit greatly New ideas and novel inventions will in- crease interest in stage settings.
 Despite the most bitter and deter mined political warfare there should be prevailing good feeling among business men. Prosperity will be evident in many lines of trade, all though American commerce will un- dergo changes.
 Labor troubles will be widespread and discovery of nationwide plots to hinder industry will provide ser ious material for governmental pol icies.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of chang es that may follow unfair criti- cism. Interviews may be of spec ial importance.
 Children born on this day are subject to the sign of Virgo. They may be of reserved and calm nature with active minds They may be systematic and fond of detail

 In June 1883 President Roosevelt signed the WagnerPeyser Act providing for Federal-State free employment exchanges, locally managed but financed jointly by Federal and State Governments 1mmedi- atey States began to cooperate, despite all of inconvenience. Republican governors with Repub lican legislatures Democratic governors with Repub- ican legislatures recognized the need to both workers and employers of these free employment exchanges, so that there 297 such Federal-State ex- changes in 43 of the States.
 But did Governor Landon cooperate? He did not. The record shows that although Governor Landon has functoned with Republican legislatures during both of his terms he pursued in this vital matter the donothing policy that has characterized his attitude toward other progressive measures
 Kansas therefore has reaped none of the benefits from these Federal-State exchanges which together with the Federally operated exchanges secured B. 543124 private jobs for persons up to June 30 this year Job-seekers in Kansas as far as Governor Lan- don is concerned will continue to be at the mercy of private placement bureaus whose general history has been that of practicing extorton.
