THE NEW DE AL
IN WASHINGTON
RODNEY DuTcHER-
BY RODNEY BUTCHER
SEA Service Staff Correspondent

TT is true that Senator George
L Berry of Tennessee has re-
signed as president Of Labor'S
NonpartiSan League, but it is not
quite clear when the event oc-
CURED.
The league is the beginning of
a possible sometime Labor party.
C. I. o. leaders John Lewis and
Sidney Hillman put Berry in
charge of it because he was pres
ident of the A. F. of LIS Press
mems Union, and would take
away some Of the c. I. o. flavor.
Berry was appointed senator
May 6 to fill a vacancy. A week
or two later Lewis and Hillman
went into conference with him.
They suggested in a nice way that
it might be better not to have
Democratic senator as head of
an organization whose very name
insisted on its nonpartisanship.
They left with the impression
that Berry would announce his
resignation or write letter about
it within the next day, or two.
Time marched on, with no word
from Senator Berry. 1t was two
months before any inkling of his
resignation leaked out. Mean
while league funds had become
depleted. The, leagues three
strongest supporting unions, led
by Lewis, Hillman and David Du-
binsky, failed to kick in.
Senator Berry had to dig into
his own pockets. Finally he gave
up. The squeeze play had worked.
AS to Senator Berry'S delay in
actually getting out of the league
after the May meeting, few who
know Berry believe he has no
presidential ambitions. Failing
that, he might take the vice pres
idency, which he has sought for
years.

MARcoNI

Guglielmo Marconi was one of few men or whom
it can be said that their work has changed the
world. He belonged with Edison in the company
of those great inventors who, while adding very
little to scientific knowledge directly, have turned
the work of the explorers of nature to unsupported
practical uses and thereby opened up vast new
realms of industry, of power and of new study.
1t was to Marconi that the title inventor of wire
less telegraphy given, and it Is as the father
of radio that he will be remembered. He was not,
in a. true sense the discoverer of wireless, for he
built upon the mathematical investigations of Clerk
Maxwell and the experiments of others. Edison did
not suddenly create the electric lamp out of void
of darkness but rather worked out the most prac-
ticable solution of problem upon which many
were engaged, and not unsuccessfully before he
turned his attention to it. Neither did Marcon de-
wise out Of complete silence the means for making
wireless teegraphy workable and for placing it on
the commercial basis necessary for its development
into its present state.
The. inheritance of this work can scarcely be es-
timated even at the present time. Already the eff
feets of il are tremendous and far-reachng in a
variety of helds---ranging from mere entertainment
through pure science to some of the most signif-
cant aspects of modern politics Radio has touched
everything from slang to elections. Great bust
nesses have been built upon it and it has shaped
new habits of thought. Nor is the end yet in sight.
It's influence in the civilization of the future is
guessed And it is still capable, theoretically, of
great number of new uses and surprising applca-
tons. az
Mr.. r. G. Crowther has remarked that "the full
Importance of the discoveries of Faraday and Clerk
MAXWELL was not clear until the inventors such. as
Edison and Marconi had proved that they were of
profound value and were far more than ingenious
intellectual tricks" The inventor rather than the
pure researcher works the real revolutions with
science Marconi, who translated mathematical for
muiate into history, was very triumphantly such a
man Baltimore Sun.

NEVER FAILED YET

Much worry is being expressed
from many quarters as to what
will happen to us if law and order
do break down and agitators do
gain control of this country.
Those who are inclined to feel
alarmed over such prospect can
comfort themselves with the re-
collection that every time law and
order has broken down in Amer
lea and has become helpless to
cope with situation, the Ameri-
can people themselves have be-
come law and order and the
agency to enforce law and order.
Do not worry about the Amer
lean people-they always rise to
the emergency.

Mussolini, too is building an en-

FILENE AND SUCCESS

Death of Edward A. Filene, American merchant in Paris will be recorded the passing of successful business man. But Filene's ideas of success and those by which mans worth is commonly assayed differed widely A newspaper man on one occasion asking him to apprase his life's accomplishments received this reply: T just an unsuccessful mil lionare."
 Some of his other sayings reflect his ideas on success:
 Luck is chance-chance comes to everybody when it comes to the man who is ready, he is lucky.
 Any position, if held long enough, will lead to mental and spiritual stagnation and ultimate failure
 Tt is economic treason to shop carelessly. It IS the part of good citizenship sacrifice the necessary time and trouble get the best prices and goods at tainable That means giving up the idea that it is sign of nobility to pay any price demanded"
 Filene said he wanted his store overrun with "hardboed" customers looking for values rather than bargains.
 As the son of immigrant, he was for years an advocate of unrestricted right to entry of this country by aliens, but later he changed his views.

 Filene never had any formula for quick success and thought little of those who did.
 More harm than good has come from reading the biographies of successful business men, he said. "he reader seldom realizes that the qualities which fit
 man for one stage of business may utterly dsqualify him for the next Methods adopted in genera tion which are antiquated in the next"

PROMISING DISCOVERY AT RYDER

The following interesting communication, glvln an intimate glimpse of Alaska's great untapped re sources has reached desk:
 What may prove to be an important mining discovery has recently been made by L. c. Thornton near Hyder the American side of the boundary.
 MT Thornton has spent more than six years driving ice tunnels in a living glacier Ill an effort to trace gold float running as high as SS1 900 per ton. During this period he has driven more than 5000 feet of tunnels Tn the ice and has been successful in finding the rich ore in places though much remains to be done before it can be definitely determined whether or not he has commercial ore body.
 The present excessive cost of transporting supplies to the property has greatly hampered him in his work and it is believed that he de- serves help in the matter of extending road to his property This has been agreed upon
 The method of expressing the values of mining property differs in different districts In the placer mining areas of the north values are expressed running so much to the pan cubic yard or bedrock square foot. In lode mining properties values are expressed as run ming so much to the ton. MT. Thornton dur ing the progress of his work has collected high grade in a kerosene can which he brings from under the glacier at the end of the shift Seven and one half gallons of ore recently yielded 10O0 MT. Thornton smiled when he admitted that his picked ore runs Sl93'35 per gallon.
 Gold as the old saying goes is where you fin it. and here is further evidence that It can be 1oui in great many places in Alaska. Just as road the thing that Miner Thornton needs to develop h promising property roads are the things which WI develop scores of other valuable mineral propertie in the Territory.
