An Opportunity For Youth
Cincinnati Enouirerl

Cincinnati Enqurer)
 It would be pity if the graduates of 1886 were already taking refuge in cynical search for haven safe from the rigors of world in ux. Most persons today realistic enough to admit that the America of tomorrow is going to be place of stress and un certainty. In the of depression forces have been set going which cannot be dispelled without social friction and long controversy But to say that the world of tomorrow is to be a world of tension and struggle is not to say that defeatism is the ap proprate frame of mind for a graduating class. It is precisely in period of stress and change that the dealism and courage of trained minds are needed most The young men and women who are leaving academic halls this week obliged to be realistic as it has been at times. But if they to up to their social responsibility they will need all the idealism they muster.
 The problems that crying out for solution and will remain vital for years to come call for minds able to grappe with ideas. They require minds trained to think clearly, minds that do not shy away from phrases, and minds that open to eXamna- tion of change. The generation must be pre- pared not merely to carry the political traditions of their fathers but to examine candidly the under lying principles of their political and economic order and make certain of their validity.
 In short, it may be said to the graduates of 1886 The country is yours, to do with as you like It needs lot of patching and perhaps some more fun damental reform. But you cannot Straighten 1t out simply the basis of what you have learned in col ege. You must go into the world and test theories against facts for a couple of decades. Then such dealism survives in your minds after this long apprenticeship will probably you well. In the meantime honest people will what they do to conserve your inheritance"

 TELLS OF TOUR
Juneau Man Makes Interior Trip by Air, Steamer,
 Rail and Auto

T. A. Morgan, Manager of the Columbia Lumber Company, retupn- ed to Juneau today aboard the Yu- kon. Morgan left here last week on the Alaska Air Transport Bel lanca plane, piloted by Sheldon Simmons.
 Morgan expressed his delight at the speed and beauty of the air journey saying that ground facili- ties for air transportation are very highly advanced, at both Valdez and Cordova.
 Tn this respect he said, "Cordova is much further advanced than any other city in the Territory"
 He added that Cordova seemed prosperous with everyone busy. Most of the Cordova canneries were operating, but the packs so far have been light The Warrack Construc- ton Go. of Juneau have done a fine job on the new Cordova municipal building, and the Gastineau Con struction Company has practically finished the new Cordova sewer sys- tenn
 MT Morgan found Anchorage "a veritible hive of activity" He credits this to unprecedented mining activ- ity and the development of the Mat anuska Valley. The Gastineau Con struction Co. has completed exca- vating for the new Anchorage Ho- tel. he reports, and will soon have the roof on the new Municipal build ing.
 Morgan found Palmer very simi- lar to newly developed mining camp. He reports riding for three hours around the valley and only seeing about half of the colonistS homes.

THE BOYS CHANGE THEIR MIND

A high compliment paid to Roosevelt recov- cry last week when the staid Union League club, citadel of C. O. P conservatism in Chicago, "hquidat ed" it's famous Million Dollar Room" The room was papered completely with securities only two years ago when club members lacking confidence in the ability of the New Deal to restore stock and bond values solemnly voted to provide themselves at least "ornamentation" And for months after it's ostenta- tious inauguration the Million Dollar rooms m- trinsic value was the equivalent of so much wall paper
 But after nearly year gaps began to appear as members quietly transferred their green and gold certificates to safety deposit boxes According to the Associated Press The house committee struggled to keep the foly rooms plaster decently clothed but 1t was no go. All the securities ordered removed and filed at the clubs offices to await such claimants as were not present"
 Chairman c. w. Bergquist for the house com mittee explained that With the depression on the wane, we decided to put aside reminder of those days when it seemed the markets had no bottom
 The historic occasion of the denuding occurred a few hours after MT. Hoover had passed through Chicago.

LACK OF STABILITY?

When Keynoter Alben w. Barkley of Kentucky gets up there to sound the clarion call of Democracy at Philadelphia this week he will have no trouble finding plenty of concrete evidence of recovery He will have need to founder about with reactionary phrases as did Senator Steiwer at Cleveland but he can turn to almost any financial page in the land and find all the facts he needs.
 They howled Cleveland that there is lack of stability in the business structure Here is what Business Week, spokesman for the financial centers had to in its issue of the the Repub- lican convention:
 It looks though business was going to move into the summer season with more sta nina than many anticipated Retailers, real estate dealers and debt collectors look forward to good portions of the bonus money forth coming this month Farm income is promis- ing. Railroads hope passenger traffic will be stimulated substantially by the fare cut on Eastern roads Freight traffic is making excellent progress toward strong fall peak when bigger crop and livestock movement should add their weight to industrial traffic.
 Manufacturing and mining activity in the first half of 1896 will average about Is per cent ahead of the months of 1885 and will be the best level since 1880 Industrial payrolls, too, have reached high since late 1880. Dividends declared to date are 2l per cent ahead of the same months of 1885. And government spending for construction purposes shows no signs of letting up p the future.
 These factors coupled with a stable price level for non-agrieultural goods and lower prices for food farm products and cotton textiles should encourage the public to buy freely.
 But it is interesting to note the comment in the publication in the current issue after the con vention at Cleveland and as the Democratic concave gets underway
 Election quams are apparently not going to be much of factor this year. The usual summer recession seems scheduled to be mild affair followed by a good pickup in the fall. Some consumer lines like shoes furs, dresses millinery are more concerned now about fall presentations than current output which has begun to taper But sur prisng stability, even progress characterizes such industries steel tractor production construction, machine tools, tin plate and rail equipment
 This may be lack of stability, but the average person in business is mighty glad to see it even

ITALIANS TO RETAIN
AREA WON BY ARMS
Report by Committee of IS
Bares Duce's Intention.

By United Press
GENEVA, April 18.-The League
of Nations Cancellation Committee
of ID, which for months tried to
bring peace between Italy and
Ethiopia, formally adopted a report
today admitting that it's mediatory
efforts have failed diplomatic
defeat due in part to Italy's de-
mands that it be allowed to keep
the Ethiopian territory it has con-
quered.
The formal report did not place
the blame on either Italy or Ethi-
opia but significantly it did, for the
first time, reveal that among the
italian conditions for peace has
been the ultimatum that she retain
the African land her soldiers have
won by arms.
On Monday, the report will be
presented to the League council,
