LANCER VS.. WEXFORD

Former Governor william Lam
ger, acquitted of permitting misuse
of relief funds for political pur-
poses, heads what North Dakotans
describe as the more radical wing
of the Republican party.
Heading the other wing is Act
ing Governor walter Wexford,
whose elevation to the Governor
ship was of itself a bit extraor-
binary.
But to go on with the records:
In 1884, Mrs. Lydia LANCER, wife
of the former Governor, sought
election as a sort of vindication
of her husband but was defeated
by Thomas H. Noodle, a Demo-
crat. With its capacity for doing
the unusual, the State elected Well
ford, Republican, Lieutenant
Governor. He succeeded to the
Governorship when Noodle was
found ineligible because of having
voted outside the State within the
previous FIVE years.

PARADOxES APLENTY

Yet when Wexford and LANCER
faced each other in the past pri-
mary, Wexford, supported by Sem
ator Nye, won by only few more
than 600 votes.
Some North Dakota Republicans
are predicting the state will elect
Wexford and, conversantly, may go
Democratic for Roosevelt. They
hold little doubt that Representa-
tive William Lemke will be re-
elected to the House as a Repub-
lican despite his Union party lead
ership.
What they are more concerned
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1936-07-28

about is what will happen in 1888
In that year Senator Nye will be
up for reelection, likely with Lam
ger and possibly with Lemke OPP
posing him for the nomination.
Even North Dakotans can't fl
cure that one out.

PANICS AND POLITICS

II is human nature to place the blame for hard
times and give the credit for good times TO "ha'-
ever political party happens to be IN power wheh
times are hard or times are good great historian,
lanes Truslow Adams, has recently pointed out
how fallacous this line of reasoning is. Panics and
depressions. he points out always follow war and
have followed in the same sequence from the De-
ginning of our national history. Immediately after
war there is a short period of hectic prosperity
followed by short period of depression, after
which is period of wild speculation and then
great depression.
That happened after the Revolution. The hnaI
crash came when Washington was president Inc
economic curve from 1888 to 1871 was almost en-
actly like the curve from 1919 to 1929.
After the War of 1912 the same thing happened;
the crash came in 1919. There was similar Sc
ouence after the war with Mexico The brief pros
peritv of the North after the War Between the
States was followed by short depression specu-
lative wave and then a financial crisis in 1878
with a depression that lasted until 1879. We went
through similar cycle after the war with Spain,
and severe depression followed the bank panic
of 1907.
Everyone old enough to read, almost, remembers
that in 1919 and early 1920 after the World war
there was a great boom of prosperity Then de-
preston which lasted until 1922, then great spec
ulative wave which came to an end In 1879 ana
we are only just beginning to climb out of the
seven years depression which followed that col
lapse.
1t is difficult in the light of such historical rec
ords TO believe that politics political parties are
always to blame.-EXchange.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
A CHANGED TUNE

The editor and publisher of the Chicago Daily
News is a candidate for 5vicepresident OF the UNI
ted States. on the Republican ticket Loyal ne"
Dealers will tel, you to pay no attention to what
Colonel w F. Knox's newspaper says of the Amer
lean issues So, in advance, the comments by Inc
Daily News are discounted. Even so, there is much
truth in many of them.
Now this Knox newspaper reminds that In 1852
Mr. Roosevelt charged that the United States was
heading into bankruptcy because of the eXtraVa-
giant spendngs by the Hoover regime. He de-
scrbed federal prodigality with the peoples fundS
As a danger to 1.-The entire banking, savings ana
insurance system of the country ..
It. asks this reactionary newspaper, in 1882 with
national debt of $22, 900, 100000, the country
was well on the road to bankruptcy, where are
we now with debt of $4,000, 900, OOO? II Nh.
Harry l.. Hopkins were making answer, he would
dispose of Colonel Knox and his company OF edi-
tors as being too damned dumb to understand.
Now that the New Deal is defending the things
II denounced four years ago. teers of tales are
branded as scare mongelS." When Mr.. Roosevelt
was saving such things in 1882 he was rendering
patriotic service. but when an opponent voices
them now he is more or less of traitor to ms
country.
Several things the Roosevelt administration was
definitely pledged to do. among them the hating OF
federal prodigality, the balancing of the federal
budget. the revision downward of the Hawley-
Smoot- Hoover high tariff, the elimination of many
federal bureaus.
The budget is still out of balance, the tariff has
not been revised. federal prodigaty has not been
halted bureaus and bureaucratS have been IN
creased

serve a sound American currency at all hazards

SHOULD BE SUBMITTED TO THE PEOPLE

Advocates, of the plan to remove all tax exemp-
tions on government securities feel that the time is
ripe for submission of the proposal to the people.
Numerous thoughtful pepoe who had at first
looked upon the proposal with some doubt have
come to the conclusion that the subsection of all
these bonds of federal, state and local govern
ments to the taxation that is imposed upon
other such securities would be wholesome change.
Government bonds would cease to be refuge for
wealthy people who wish to escape taxation and the
competition between government securities and in
vestments in private productive enterprise would be
reduced .' a
A constitutional amendment would doubtless be
necessary to make the change complete with re-
snect to obligations of all governments IN this eoun
trv and the time seems ripe to submit the PROPOSE
ton to the several states-RoeK Hill '' VI

One of the most, if not the most,

Marcantonio faces a hard fight. He
is the man who last winter forced a
partial investigation of the silico-
sis mass tragedy in West Virginia,
which caused considerable horror
around the country for awhile.
Early this year he was arrested
for trying to lead a parade of re-

In Washington he has fought to

Large populations Of Italian

district which this vigorous 49,

means that both the Fascist and
anti-Fascist battle and the Snan-
ish revolution are being fought in
small way, in Marcantonio's
bailiwick.

JOHN PUBLIC is TOO MEEK FOR HI:
OWN GOOD
(Ry BRUCE CATION

You'd hardly expect New York nlghl
club to be the scene of a stirring fight 1or
the peepul'S rights. nor does WPA worker
out to show his girl good time look like
good candidate for the role Of champion Oh
the turning worm.
Strange things do happen, however, and
YOU are invited to listen to the tale OF
James Leftwich.
James Leftwich is a WPA worker III
New York. He saved his salary diligently,
and one night he planned big splurge
for the One and Only; he would take her
to fancy night club and show her life as
it is lived.
He had to figure things pretty careful
". and he thought he had it doped out
right down to the line. The chosen night
clubs advertisement announced mini
mum charge of $3.50 person and stated
that there was no cover charge.
Leftwich found he could stand this and
still have a dollar to tip the waiter. So,
with his girl on his arm off he went.
But the night club dOuble-crossed him,
he said. When he got his bill he found on
it an extra dollar as location charge"
This left him with no money to tip the
waiter, and rolled his sturdy American
soul.
So he went to the police and made a
kick about tat the expense of good
deal of unpleasant publicity - and won
from them, finally, a ruling that all night
clubs henceforth must post plain notices OF
the freak charges which they will impose
on their guests.
Now it isn't very important to the race
whether New York night clubs gyp their
patrons or not but it does seem refreshing
to find one cash customer in the United
States who is ready to stand up on his hind
legs and squawk when the needle goes into
him. We could do with good many more
like James Leftwich.
For the American consumer is one of the
most long-suffering souls in all Christen-
dom, and he is exploited from dawn to
dusk by all sorts of people.
He buys his way into a movie and IS
forced to sit through inane and unutter-
ably boring advance showings of week-af-
tef-next's film. He rides downtown on an
iIl.ventilated bus and is almost sutfocated
by fumes from the engine.
He goes to baseball game and mas
drinking fountains non-existent so that, 10
uuench his thirst, ne has to pay dime Tor
nickel bottle of pop that he doesn't real
ly.want.
If he rides train, in day coach, candy
butchers are permitted to do everything
hit sit in his lap in their efforts to make
him buy. He pays good money to see
nrizefight and is treated to a patiently fixeo
sparring match.
.Atfootball games he must pay quarte'
o.. a half dollar for a program "nlcn IN
ought to get free. Theaters extract 'aif"e'
from him for giving him place 10 han'
his coat. ;., al
And the point is that he puts up WIN d,
this If he would get up and yell, or ore e..
something, he could remedy matters -
is too long-suffering for his own gooa. a.
