 As the mid-year approached, how ever, stock prices had demonstrated their resiliency by almost wiping out the April break. The reputedly shrewd traders of Wall Street were showing their wariness chiefly in charply curtailed activity in the markets.
 Department store sales topped the same period in 1885 by about 8 per cent and were about 32 per cent ahead of the worst depression lev els, while some large mail order and chain merchandisers reported late spring volumes as best in their his tories.

 Seattle Interview

Declaring statements attributed to himself in a recent Seattle news paper article to be a whole cloth lie" Congressman Byron H. Harlan, of Dayton, Ohio, who arrived here last night aboard the Bureau of Fisheries vessel Brant, this morn- ing issued flat denial of practi- cally the entire account.
 The newspaper quoted Congress- man Harlan as saying that the gov ernment had made plans to estab- fish another Alaska colony, similar to the Matanuska project for the purpose of creating gigantic Naval air base to be operated by a perma- nent force of 10000 men; that he carried complete plans for the new colonization project, and that "in addition to airplanes, a large army post and war vessels would be es- tablished in the Territory" MT Harlan said today that he did not make any such statements.
 Only Government Knows
 If I had any complete plan or information regarding war base in Alaska, I would be the last man in the world to say anything about it." Congressman Harlan sa i'd. What I did say was that another valley is available for similar de- velopment if Matanuska worked out as they hoped Another member of Congress inspected that valley last year and I am going there this year to make an inspection based on information be brought back.

BALDWIN SAYS HE WILL STAY
 RIGHT ON JOB
British Prime Minister De- fies Foes-Quit Tn
 My Own Time
Rn CHARLss ?. NUTTER

Associated Press Foreign StaUO
 LONDON, July IT will retire in my own good time has been Prime Minister Baldwin's only pub lie reply to repeated demands that he quit public life.
 The clamor arose amid waves of criticism that swept Great Britain after the sanctions policy against Italy failed and the budget leakage scandal forced Baldwin's Colonial Secretary, Jim" Thomas, out of both the Cabinet and Parliament.
 Best authorities now believe Bald win, his anger and stubborn streak aroused by the attacks, is determ- ined to remain head of the govern ment until after the coronation of King Edward a year hence.
 Changes Make Enemies
 Since the general elections last November gave Baldwin sweeping mandate to continue in power, near ly everything has gone wrong for the aging Premier.
 The cry "Resign Resignl" arose soon after the votes were counted, when the country turned against the Hoare-Laval plan to stop the Ethiopian war, and forced Baldwin to scuttle his foreign minister, Sir Samuel Hoare.
 Baldwin's action in naming An thony Eden to the post appears to have made a mortal enemy of his old friend Sir Austen Chamberlain, just as Baldwin's earlier action in leaving the Rt. Hon. Winston Churchill out of the Cabinet em- bittered that notable who suggested Baldwin in the election after fight ing him for years on the India bill.
 Reminded of Mistakes"
 Neither of them has missed an opportunity to fire barbed gibes into the Prime Minister, repeatedly calling him to task for his "mis- takes" and pressing him for an swers to embarrassing questions, or reminding him of the failure of cer- tain policies.
 The old cry has been revived that Britain alienated Italy without ben efitting Ethiopia, greatly weakened the League of Nations, tried out halfway measures to stop the con flict, and that Britain's whole for eign policy is collection of uncer- tainties and inconsistencies.
 On top of these developments the story of the budget leakage broke over Baldwin's head.
 Call Premier "DormouSe"
 Members of Parliament are call ing Baldwin the dormouSe' be- cause has had not lashed back at the rising tide of criticism. Gen eral belief there, however, is that he will not much longer restrain himselg.
 "Once again the hounds are in full cry after Baldwin Will they get him this time? There is no other question being discussed in Westminster" said R. H. Bernays, member of Parliament, in a recent article.
 Bernays reached the conclusion Baldwin won't be bounded out of office, but that he will retire after the coronation because of his age.

TO BE MODEL BOY

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., July l. Congressman Zioncheck struck out today at the airplane company which refused him passage to Seattle and promised he was going to be a model boy, but he added that when his primary campaign opens in the State of Washington things are going to start popping, and a lot of people will have trouble sitting down. I might get beaten, but lot of people will know they've been in a fight"

 Train attendants said that he lad been very considerate and had giV- en less trouble than the average traveller.
 Zioncheck commented on the air plane incident and said: T don't know whether I'm going to sue, but there is a fertile ground there for a bit of spading.
 When asked about Lcmke's Union Party candidacy, zioncheck said: "Lemke's move was ill-adVised. Lem ke is sincere, but he told me once that the depression would end when the soldiers bonus was paid and when the Frazier-Lemke Farm Mortgage Refinance pla n went through"

Congressman, Enroute to Seattle, Continues Jour
 ney Aboard Train

CHICAGO, Ill July l.-Congress- man Marion A. Zioncheck's plans to switch from train to a plane here on his trip home to Seattle, went awry last night when the North west Lines declined to take him as a passenger.
 After considerable discussion over the refusal, the Congressman leaped into a squad car and sped to the Union Station to board a train
 Excess Weight
 FL. Bixler, Division Traffic Man ager for the Airline, said the lncon- venience to Zioncheck was caused purely by the problem Of excess weight in the plane. He said the plane was limited by regulations to 1995 pounds. Draining a quantity of gasoline did not cut down the margin because of the volume of mail and baggage and one seat had to be assigned to the operations. We had to give one seat to the operations and that did not leave room for MT. Zioncheck,' BiXler said.
 Lets Out c Blast
 As the Congressman boarded the train he let out a blast against the National Capital.
 T am sick and tired of Wash ington, D. c. They have bigger cockroaches, poorer plumbing, more dumb people and more dumb police men than anywhere else in the world" said Zioncheck.
