find some of the causes, and it usually goes back to his opening statement, that people are not here to stay and don't care. But is that true? If we wish to attract the kind of people that will come to Alaska and if we want them to re- main, adequate housing is an i'm portant means of keeping them here. Again it is said that taxes are high. I wonder sometimes if those who make that statement know what real estate taxes really are, unless they own city property "Outside." Often the statement is made that building costs are ter rifically high. To some extent that is true in the Interior, where high freight rates add so materially to the building costs, but the building material has not been as cheap as it was the last three years, since before the World War. Prices are going up now, as it always docS with the increase in demand, anS building material prices are still reasonable enough to mako building profitable.
 Another comment mas been made, We cannot obtain competent building trade mechanics" Again that is true, especially in the sum- mer time. the known-to-be eff C. tent building tradesman is usually kept busy with repairs and altera- tions if no new construction is of fered Perhaps we have enough mechanics, but are they real me chanics? Do they know their trade, or are they only wood butch CTS, hand axe carpenters. or door bell electricians? The largest part of the cost of building construc- ton is labor, if that labor is in efficient, building costs will rise out of all proportion to the ulti- mate value.
 Building Season
 Others say, "Our building season is so short we cannot hope to do very much in the summer months" '" The writer lived for many years in Minnesota and Michigan, where all forms of building operations are carried on through the winter, and in fact some times more profitably for the builder, in climate far more severe than S. E. Alaska. There is much that can be done

Tomorrow evenings Douglas Moose tilt is the next spot on the local baseball program as the Chan nel League directors have decided not to reschedule the Elks-Legion contest, rained out last Tuesday, for tonight, but to wait till later in the season when weather con- ditions are better and it is warmer.
 The League-leading Douglas team is favored to win tomorrow night, but the Moose showed great inn provement in last Sundays opener in which they were nosed out by the Elks in the last frame.

 We need to build better homes more comfortable homes, homes in- sulated against the weather, homes with adequate heating and plumb ing. They need not be large, or nate structures, but neat comfor- table, and warm. We need to mod ernize existing homes. Why not a concerted program to rebuild AL aska towns to make living more comfortable in Alaska, so that tie people of Alaska can truthfully say, We arc here to LIVE in Al aska."
The Daily Alaska empire., 1936-05-21

For many years the supposition of many people coming to the Ter ritory has been, We will stay long enough to get stake and get out" and go tside" With that thought in mind many people have been content to exist under hous- ing conditions inadequate, insuf- ficient and uncomfortable. And here they stuck, even though they made stake, and went outside to spend it, they returned to live in Alaska. In the last few years there has been an awakening interest in bettering the housing conditions, and here and there, in the larger towns, have been families, no lon ger content to put up with what they had thought to be temporary maks-shift houses, have built for themselves modern homes, but in proportion they have been few and far between.
 With one exception, all the towns the writer visited this year report housing shortage. Newcomers from the States have great difficult ty in finding any sort of housing accommodations. Rentals are pro portionately too high for the hous- ing offered Landlords have the tenant at their mercy and usually adopt the attitude Take it as is or leave it."

Mules Intelligence Said
to Exceed Other Animals

Mules have been in every war fought
anywhere on the globe. They have
dragged cannon through swamps where
a modern tractor would succumb to the
filters; they have led charges up noun.
tainsides where goats would hesitate,
then they have stood with one long ear
forward and one backward listening
to the fOrmalities of foes surrender
and have brayed In triumph.
Great credit has been accorded the
dog, the horse, the chimpanZee, for in.
telligence. But don't be fooled by that,
says writer in the Kansas City Star
The dog, the horse and the chimpanzee
will do lot of foolish things under the
urge of foolish humans. Not the mule
He won't drink where he should not or
when he should not; he won't venture
upon an unsafe bridge; he won't over.
eat even in field of green corn; he
knows when he has done days work.
and he knows when the sun is too hot
for safety. If he could talk andswould,
which we doubt, he could give world
old advice to those who use him.
Yes, the mule Is stubborn, and, just
possibly, that lie because he knows
what he wants when he wants 1t, and,
being unable to put It into words, he
simply stands and waits until human
intelligence catches up with him.

Briar Root Must Mature
Before Used for Pines

The roots from which briar pipes
are made are at least a hundred years
old. They must mature that time in
the earth before they can be used for
this purpose, notes a writer in Answers
Magazine.
A root may come from France or
Algeria, but those which are used for
trst-class pipes are dug in Corsica. Al
gerian roots are inferior because there
is too much sand in the soil.
The briar roots arrive at the factory
In sacks. An expert tells at glance
which are most likely to be suitable
His selection Is governed by size, quail
ity, and grain. The chosen roots are
then passed on to an operator for
rough-shaping, which produces a Carl
cature of pipe.
After the root has been rough-shaped
1t is passed on to another operator,
who shapes 1t into a pipe bowl. A
third operator gives it "a final trim
ming, when it Is ready for boring and
rough-polishing. This last process
brings out the grain in the wood and
the pipe bowl takes on a deeper hue.
Pipe stems are supplied separately,
as an entirely distinct process is re-
quired to mold or cut the vulcanite
into the required shapes and sizes.
Finished pipes are carefully scrutinized
and rejected for the slightest flaw.
