Fears of the Third Party

 Political circles buzzng with the question which of the main parties stands to gain or lose by the placing of the Lemke-O Brien ticket in the field It can probably be organized successfully in only few of the States, and it's campaigning through the summer can hardly be well financed sustained Yet it doubtless will the picking up of great many votes here and there, and politicians would like to know where they will from and where they will go It said that Democratic leaders at Philadelphia would try to do something to prevent any threatened defection of Democratic voters account of the formation of the Third Party. This very unlikely The Democrats cannot possibly outbd the nfla latonists They would only increase the vote for them if they timidy proposed to do little imitation themselves.
 While Republicans and Democrats are disputing about the electoral effect of the Third Party the Socialists in doubt what it may mean for them Mir Norman Thomas before he was chosen again as the Socialist candidate for the Presidency, ex pressed certain apprehension of Farmer-Labor party organized in several States Now that it has virtually about he assails it the ground that it is trying to misead the people by promising them The retort might well be that the Socialists also advertising pretty long line of impossbilities of their If the Third Party pro- vigorously contest the Presidential election it can hardly fail to draw votes to itself that would otherwise have gone to the Socialist ticket Thus among all the vague fears of what the party may do, those of MT. Thomas appear to be the best founded.

ALAsKANs LEAD .ARApE

The A lask a section led all the States in the huge parade held in Washington on June 27 in celebra- tion of the nomination of Franklin D. Roosevelt for his second term as President.
 The parade consisted of enthusias- tic delegations from each of the States and Territories carrying the State flags and banners proclaim ing confidence in the President. Precedence in the procession was determined according to the alpha betical order of the States in order to avoid possible claim of partiality in allotment of positions. However, the propriety of placing Alaska in front of Alabama was unanimously agreed to in recognition of the fact that in 1882 the Alaska delegates to the National Convention were the first to pledge the nomination of MT. Roosevelt.
 The Alaska section, consisting of about 25 residents of the Territory who are now living in Washington. was lead on the left and right by two native Alaskans carrying the Stars and Stripes and the Territor- ial Flag. Albert Brown of Hyda- burg, and Bennie Pikutark of Nome, filled these two prominent posi- tions.

MILITARY ROAD TO ALASKA

Probably one of the projects giving pronounced impetus to the proposed International Highway through Canada to Alaska is the determination of the War Department to establish military air base in the Fairbanks region. Naturally, the Army men are interested in road way to the States It would assure them dependable route for movement of equipment through friendly territory and link them definitely with bases in the States.
 Many of the major roads of the west built many years ago military roads for the movement of troops It is not at all impossible that Aaska's first road connection through Canada might be es- tabshed as a semi if not full military route.

Shade of Poor Richard!

 Pity the shade of Ben Franklin he walks through the streets of his home town this week.
 The discoverer of electricity and inventor of the lightning rod wanders bewldered through a great city whose 100000 souls heated cooled lifted up and down skyscrapers, transported and given light and communication from the mysterious element he snatched from the clouds with his kite and key. AS he enters the convention hall where the Democrats hold levee he hears speaker whose voice goes out to millions the ether telling of such gigantic power projects as IVA, Boulder Dam and Grand Couee.
 The one-tme printers devil, who laboriously hand-set type, letter by letter watches 500 corres pondents flashing reams of copy tc the earth's cor for almost instantaneous transformation into newspapers of many languages.
 And what ghostly headache for this thrifty soul will be in what the New Dealers and their chron icers talk about! As he ponders their spending and their $34 900, 100000 debt him sorrowfully sit down a curb and read again from his we'll thumbed Poor Richards Almanack" these old-fash- toned maxms:-

FAITH REVIVED

great many fine phrases out of the two political conventions but also there crete facts which may have become overlooked in the flow of potent adjectives It Senator Bark ley who touched on some of them in his analysis of the business record under President Roosevelt.
 Not wishing to tire the impatient delegates, whose main purpose to renominate Mir Roosevelt the Senator was brief, but his words carried aging message to the American people He pointed out that farm prices have increased 50 per cent in the last three years farm income has gained 53 per cent; factory payroll purchasing power 50 per cent factory employment, 33 per cent industrial ingS 35 per cent; stock market prices 40 per cent bank deposits B per cent; railroad traffic 16 per cent; automobile production 30 per cent construc- tion permits, 50 per cent; industrial production 50 per cent; national bank earnings 100 per cent; de- cline in commercial failures 66 per cent increase in national income 50 per cent and securities iS- sued 50 per cent
 Those figures do not indicate that the present Administration is laying the hampering hand of government the innocent heads of business and finance charged at the Republican convention in Cleveland. Rather as MT. Barkley pointed out benefits have been bestowed upon all groups with as even hand government assure
 The important point is not merely that farm prices have increased but that American agriculture has been rescued from impending run" he said Tt is merely that the condition of labor has been improved by the reduction of the number of unem- ployed from fifteen millions to ten millions of work CTS but that labor has been dragged back from the brink of peonage and that with one-fourth of our population destitute, their health comfort and self respect have been maintained, and there has been no sediton riot boodshed during the worst human catastrophe in history. It is not merely that banking and industry have been saved from bank ruptcy but that faith in banking and industry have been revived"
