 Fitch is completing survey of conditions at Nome, Fairbanks Goodnews Bay and Anchorage in in- terest of his company.
 Fitch said the Alaska Railroad has refused to agree to have trains con- meet with the Northland Transpor- tation Company steamers at Sew ard, consequently if the company enters the western Alaska field, 1t may be compelled to operate direct to Anchorage, unloading by barges and tugs Such a system would reduce freight rates, it is said.

FLOYD SCOBEE ! DIES SUDDENLY IN VANCOUVER
Heart Attack Takes For. mer Juneau Insur-
 ance Man

Succumbing to sudden attacl of the heart, F. s. Scobee, 54, for. mer resident of Juneau, died at hi home in Vancouver, B. C., last night according to a radio message re- ceived here today by Mrs. G. V Goss.
 Known to his host of JuneaU friends as Floyd, MT. Scobee first came to Alaska in 1883, his mission being to establish the Mutual Bene- fit Health and Accident Associa- tion and the United Benefit Life Insurance companies in the Terri tory. He remained here until Ap- Til, 1885.
 Previous to coming North, MT Scobee had been doing organiza- tion work for the same two com panies in the State of Idaho. He had been connected with the two companies for seventeen years, and at the time of his death was very successfully managing their Vest ern Canada branch, with headquar- ters in Vancouver, and with super vision over three Western provinces of Canada.
 In 1884, while in Juneau, he was married to the former Elsie Minch, who now survives him. MT. Scobee was succeeded at his Juneau post by Bert Elstad.
 In addition to his success in in- surance work, MT. Scobee was an ardent radio enthusiast, first ac- quiring the hobby while in Juneau, though he had formerly been con- nected with telegraphy during the earliy part of his life, while in the employ of a Middle Western rail- road, in Illinois. At the time of his death he operated one of the most modern and complete amateur ra- dio stations on the Pacific Coast, located at Blaine, Washington.
 He had many radio friends throughout the nation, who will join with his many personal friends in Juneau, in all of Alaska, and many other sections. in grieving at his sudden demise.

quite open to opinions by their read
erS and to opinions of all shades. The
owners and publishers of such news
papers are wise enough to know that
articles going to the extreme carry lit
tie weight and yet the publishers real
ize fully that in a democracy the peo-
pie demand the right to free express
sion, be they right or wrong. This the
publishers accept as policy though
they may be condemned right and
left as the kept press by editors and
publishers of propaganda sheets and
political party organs when as mat
ter of fact, it is much more difficult
for the public to enter expressions
of opinions in the propaganda press.
Our problem today is not that of
winning independence and democ-
racy from tyrannical government
but rather that of upholding and
maintaining the liberty and freedom
thus far gained. Freedom of press,
freedom of speech, and freedom of
assembly must always be guarded by
every individual citizen. Guard the
right of others to disagree with you
We learn by interchange of ideas
and opinions. No government is
better than the average of the people
and this is especially true in a great
democracy such as America.

Boy Pedals 80 Miles
For Visit With Aunts

While an 80-mile trip on a bicycle
might seem like a long journey to
some folks, it's just little jaunt to
James Walker of White, S. D., who
arrived in Luverne recently to visit
his two aunts, Mrs. V. A. Long and
Mrs. Geo. Shurr. Leaving White at
midnight, James, together with
friend, arrived in Luverne the follow
ing noon after pedaling the distance
of 80 miles. Seventeen-year-o old
James doesn't understand why folks
get so chopped up about the feat
to him it was just a drop in the
bucket, for he has often biked to
Sioux City, Iowa, and Mankato. He
admits, however, that he was a bit
weary when he arrived in Luverne.
The trip took him longer than he had
expected because he had few blow
outs and hot weather slowed down
his speed.

SUPREME COURTS RECORD
(Glencoe Enterprise)

The United States News recently
compiled what it terms THE New
Deals Won and Lost Record in the
Supreme Court"
Two Court terms have been con-
cluded in which Administration meas
ures have been decided. In - cases,
the Administration has been sus-
tanned. In II it has lost.
Cases in which it has been upheld
include such measures as: Gold de-
valuation, the IVA, the arms en-
barge, the silver purchase policy, the
second Frazier-Lemke farm mortgage
moratorium, the social security meas
ures.
Cases which it has lost involved the
NRA, the AAA, the Guffey Coal Act,
the Rail Pension Act, and the NUM-
cipal Bankruptcy Act.
Most favorable to Administration
laws, says The News, was Mr.. Justice
CardOzO, who cast 10 votes for New
Deal laws and against.
Most unfavorable was Mr.. Justice
McReynOlds-5 for New Deal laws,
10 against.
1t is interesting to note that Mr..
Cardozo was appointed by a Repub-
lican-President Hoover: Mr.. Mercy
nolds by a Democrat-Presiden Will
son,
