AVIATION DAY

Friday of this week May 28, the nation recognizes for the first time National Aviation Day as the result of Congress passing the Shaney resolution setting aside that day in May to pay tribute to the advances made in aviation.
 No place the globe has more reason to cele- brate Aviation Day than Alaska. Here in the north flying has become the major mode of transportation It is probable that Alaskans travel miles by air in comparison with their number than any group of people on this continent. Today go everywhere by plane; many places which inaccessible except by foot until the advent of the airplane.
 Approximately 80 commercial air lines operate in the Territory serving section of this vast North land from Point Barrow to Dixon Entrance. Regu- larly scheduled lines operate out of Juneau Fair banks Anchorage, Nome and the major centers of population. Even those who come from the States and used to great transcontnena air lines marvel at the progress of aviation in the north and the dis patch with which pilots get around the coun- try without accident yet without virtually any of the aids to aerial navigation which available to fers in the States.
 Airplanes one of the major forces in elimnat- ing isolation in Alaska. They have brought outposts into close contact with the major centers and the Outside world. They have speeded up commercial business and with the inauguration of air mail, which

Horoscope "The stars incline
 but do not compel'
THURSDAY, MAY 27, 1887


 This is a mixed day in planetary influences, according to astrology. It is more fortunate for women than for men.
 In the early hours girls should use their best energies, especially Ithose who are in schools and col lleges.
 The rule is favorable to construc- ltive and progressive ideas among women. It encourages executive ability which will be manifested later in supreme service for the pub lie welfare.
 Warning is given that both men and women may exercise poor judg- ment today, particularly where hu- man relations are involved.
 This is not time to enter into new business or professional con- nections. Legal papers or even letters should be signed with eau tion.
 Labor is to evolve a novel policy which will cause embarrassment to industry. An event of world im- portance is likely to cement the interests of workers in every trade.
 Death of a man who has been powerful leader in economic battles is prognosticated. New alignments among workers are forecast.
 After the spring floods there will be reports of droughts from many parts of the world In several states serious conditions may develop in midsummer
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of remarkable experiences which may be exceed inglv fortunate. Tenants may be troublesome.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be lovers of beauty and brains. Subjects of this sign may appear easy-going, but they are able to accomplish much by little effort.
 George Washington Doane, Pro- testant Episcopal Bishop, was born on this day 1799 Others who have celebrated it as birthday include Jay Gould, financier, 1886; Mrs. Amelia Bloomer, reformer, 1918.

 Suppose to pick up newspapers one day and find formal decree signed by Franklin D. Roosevelt alleging that the British press had been unfair to American armed forces. and summariy re- calling all American correspondents from Lon don.
 Suppose the next day, and the next. and the next to look through our newspapers and find nowhere in all the columns single British news item or picture-not anything about the ton or David Windsor and Wallis Simpson. Suppose. also that twisted the als of radios but heard no mention of anything occurring in the greatest em pire on earth, and went to movie theaters and saw newsreels from which all British had been ex punged
 If you can stretch your imagination that far you possibly also can stretch it far enough to imagine what would soon become the American state of mind And how by word of mouth the most fantastic gossip would spread among about the doings of the British Empre-from person that the Canadian armed forces were massing on our northern border from another that British men-of-war were anchored off Bermuda preparing to attack our Atlantic shores, and from another the whisper that Hindu regiments had been landed in Mexico and moving north toward the Rio Grande.
 Weird, isn't it? Yet, censorship such as that described above actually has been put into effect in Italy by order of Dictator Mussoni. In Italy today in far the customary channels of information are concerned, the empire on which the sun never sets has ceased exist Il Duce did this because he got mad about what British newspapers saying re- garng Ethiopia and Italian meddling in the Spanish war.
 But there is one thing which even the might of Bento cannot control, and that is word-o mouth gossip And doubt not that fantastic rumors of the sort imagined above even now gaining currency among the people of Italy. Ours is continent far removed from the British sphere of influence but Italys is a peninsula jutting athwart the British lifeline confined in inland guarded by British Gibraltar at end and British Suez at the other
 And be they Americans Italians when people cannot get they create rumors manufacture sus- pcions and spread fears.

Roose- welt dictator But any President who would under take what Mussolini has done would be laughed at. Newspapers would send more correspondents to Lon- don and print more instead of less British And if he persisted in any effort to carry out censorship courts would enjoin his agents and put them in jail Congress would impeach him. and courts would then probably commit him to insane asylum.
