FEDERAL BUILDING
 NEEDED AT ANCHORAGE

Renewed efforts to have funds for the needed $625,000 Federal Building at Anchorage included in one of the lump sum appropriation bills will be made by Delegate Anthony J. Dimond in the coming Congressional session. "The new building is shamefully needed" Dele gate Dimond said recently. "The building housing the courts and The Alaska Railroad offices, par ticularly are in depressing condi- tion."

 Grover Cleveland, serving his sec ond term, hardly had got his fish ing rods slowed away in the White House when a business slump, the panic of l893,' swept the country. In Cleveland's case, there had been a one-term Republican interim be- tween his two administrations so in his second regime he could not pick up where he had left off in his first
 Recovery Aids
 In his second term, President Roosevelt apparently will have the advantage of an advancing recoy- cry from one of the worst of Amer ican business depressions although tremendous army of citizens on Federal relief rolls and other de- pression byproducts remain acute problems
 As a second-termer he will have the traditional advantage of a pat ronage problem largely settled. When a President is elected to a second term there is no wholesale change among office holders-a familiar source of inter-party criti- cism and intra-party friction.
 Four years of White House train ing and experience is rated an in valuable asset of second-term Presi- dents. They know the administra- tive and legislative ropes. They have the advantage of having work ed with legislative leaders of their parties and of knowing intimately their traits and capacities.
 Experience Helps
 They have knowledge of the tal- ents and shortcomings of their, ad- ministrative aids. They have had opportunity to learn of conditions in virtually all of the states and to ascertain ways of reading the public pulse" They have back ground of familiarity with for eign relations including highly con- fidential informaton that is never made public

SPRINGFIELD, Mo, Dec. 8.- Turnips and pumpkins are the lat est on the dairy cows menu.
 Farmers turned to them after drought cut the supply of normal dairy foods. The vegetables are cut in small pieces and mixed with grain as in the common method of feeding silage. Once cows get ac- customed to the mixture, farmers report, they clean it up readily.

to serve more than one term, MT. Roosevelt presumably will begin his second term with the tradi- tional freedom from reelection worries but with the outlook of a shortened whip" on Congress
 To first-term Presidents, the prospect of submitting their rec ords in office to the voters within less than four years after inaugu- ration and of setting the political stage for reelection usually plays a part in determining their policies and actions. Second term execu- tives can advance their programs with less concern for their own political fortunes.
 On the other hand, second-term Presidents customarily have to deal

Nd CASH AND NO PAYMENTS

Some months ago there was con-
siderable interest taken in this country in
a political campaign in Alberta, Canada
where a candidate advocated a social
credit scheme, holding out the promise of
payments of $25 a month to certain citi
zens.
The candidate was elected but the
payments have not materialized. The i'm
pediment that barred the flow Of cash 20
the citizens was lack of revenue. Worse
than the disappointment involved in the
end of dream, is the probability that the
provincial legislature is about to lay down
higher tax levies. Il a' ff+if
The warning from Canada should give
us needed balance in considering schemes
like the Townsend Plan, which promises
$500 month to all persons over 60 years
of age. Certainly, The Citizen has no OBJ
lection to the principle of the Townsend
Elan, involving assistance to aged persons.
We think, however, that 5000 a month is
impractical and that it will not material
iZe for the same reason that the Alberta
plan collapsed. 1t is one thing to promise
5000 a month and another thing to find
the cash money with which to make the
payments.

STALIN'S INTERVIEW

Joseph Stain, Russian dictator, re-
Gently gave expression to his views on a
number of questions in an interview with
Roy w. Howard of the Scripps- Howard
Newspapers.
Considering the world situation Mr..
Stain saw two points of danger, lone in
the Far East in the zone of Japan, and the
other in Europe in the zone of Germany"
The Russian leader was frank to say that
aggression by Japan against the Mon
gclian Peoples Republic would be met
with force.
The Red leader denied that the Soviet
Union ever had any plan or intention of
bringing about world revolution. He point
ed out that ito attempt to export revolu-
ton is nonsense" and that without de-
sire for revolution in country there
would be no revolution" He admitted
that the people of the Soviet Union would
like 10 see the outside world change but
said that this is the business of the outside
world. Naturally, as one would expect,
he Considered Capitalism. the real war
peril.
Questioned whether American Com
munists, speaking in Moscow last summer,
appealed for the overthrow by force of
the American government, the Soviet Chief
did not recall what they said, although adj
hitting that maybe they said something
of that nature He denied that the
Soviet founded the American Communist
Party, which he pointed out legally exists
in the United States and is represented by
ballot even in national elections. Pointed
ly, he remarked that 'it would be unfair
to hold the Soviet Government responsible
for the activities of the American Com
munists''

THE LAYMAN DOESN'T UNDERSTAND

The average citizen Of Key West, I'M
verged in the intricacies of the law, finds
it hard to understand the situation created
when the United States Supreme Court de-
clares a law unconstitutional because the
Federal Government has no power to leg
slate and, almost at the same time, State
Supreme Court finds a similar statute I'M
power to legiSlate or because the State
court is bound by the Federal decision.
Something like this has happened in
New York, where the Court of Appeals
has declared the State minimum wage law
for women to be unconstitutional. The U.
S. Supreme Court has already declared a
national law along the same lines, un-
constitutional and the New York judges
said they were bound by the decision.
As the Baltimore Evening Sun says:
Doubtless there is legal sense in all
this. Doubtless a lawyer could explain,
to the satisfaction of other lawyers, ex-
actly what happened when the States
Welded part of their sovereignty to
VI ashington and wherein now rests the
power to do specific things
The Sun continues. But a layman,
IMMERSED in s'ich mystical matters, may be
pardoned if he wonders just what has
really happened to sovereignty anyway
and if what he is watching isn't sort of
game of Button, button, who's got the
button? with the learned justices passing
the power from one to another behind
their voluminous black robes"

Human nature has not changed since
the time the fatted calf was killed for a
feast in rejoicing at the return of the
prOdigal son, and when tax-dOdger sees
the error of his ways and does his duty all
is forgiven. A wealthy man who had not
paid his taxes in Florida for a period of
five years is ready to pay them now, and
the state papers are giving him high
praise for doing his simple civic duty, in
