NO SORE SPOTS IN ALASKA

Alaskans true to their traditions. whole hearedy for their Territory and its development First in the nation to declare themselves for the Roosevelt policies through the election of a Democratic ticket in September, now they first in the nation to forget the election and move forward on a solid front for the advancement of Alaska There is grumbling among the people under the northern lights. They vote their convictions win lose and then go ahead to greater things
 Typical of that attitude is the editorial comment of the Fairbanks News-Miner following Tuesdays election. It doubt sounds the sentiment of the people of the Interior when it says:
 In the national program which should now be made clear and definite Alaska has every to expect that she should be accorded the fullest cooperation by the administration.
 The general election results reveal that Alaska is in full accord with the will of the majority as expressed at the polls yesterday.
 In her September election Alaska went overwhelming Democratic-and the slogan then developed among administration adher- ents and proclaimed by the Democratic m mentor, James H Farley that "As Alaska Goes So Goes the Nation" has proved itself in the final test-at least for this election.
 In other words, Alaska pointed the way and is in the fold For this reason the Roose- welt administration has every reason to be good to Alaska to extend to her such federal grants and aids will enable her to step ahead in unprecedented measure.
 Alaska should not now hesitate to press home to Washington well rounded and comprehensive program for progressive action on behalf of the Territory. As a vast contri- butor of wealth to the nation-heavieSt of any American possession in proportion to populatlon-Alaska is deserving of the best the nation can give her. No other virgin realm is so blessed with potential wealth so alluring in rare and unusual way-or so vitaly situated geographically to economic and strategic defense of the nation
 Alaska is at the threshold of a great era which can be speeded up by generous and liberal policy on behalf of executive and leg isative branches of the government, com mitted ndisputaby to the party which yes terday again swept into power
 Alaskans from individuals to her legisla- tive assembly and representative organiza- tions can now help hasten the realization of her greatest day by vigorously pressing home to Washington the Terrtory's needs and what she deserves as a land of unparaed promise and one which acclaimed her sympathy with the prevailing political faith of the day Alaska gives much and will expect much from the nation.
 There are no sore spots in Alaska. Aaskans look beyond the rim of politics As the News Miner says Alaska is at the threshold of great era which can be speeded up by generous and liberal policy on behalf of executive and legislative branches O government Her people are united in common cause.-the advancement of the Territory

East and Dumke Among
Latest to Want to Drop
Spectators.

@AN It be that Eddie East and
Ralph Dumke have started q
trend? Does their recent an
nouncement that they plan
to eliminate studio audiences from
their twice weekly Columbia broad
casts mean that other air shows will
follow suit?
East and Dumke worked for eight
years without studio audience. They
did pretty well for themselves as Sis
ters Of the Skillet. Then along came
new Columbia show and for eight
weeks they have been working for
the benefit Of an audience.
Now East and Dumke want .
change. They claim they do their
best work without being gaped at by
studio spectators. To take effect i'm
mediately. they have ordered that no
tickets be distributed for their broad
casts.
Other air acts have perked up their
ears. It's no secret that Fred Allen
would just as soon work in o closed
studio. He has never catered to a
studio audience, never has solicited
laughs through antics before the mi-
crophone and has never sent broad
cast tickets to even his closest friends.
Jack Benny forgets the audience
when he Is on the air. Fred Astaire
claims he's nervous when he broad
casts before spectators, even though

more at ease when he broadcasts

there be no audience when she signed
