character, not in terms of what you have but what you are; not in mere possession of wealth; but the creation of wealth in it's many and varied forms; not by what you get but what you give" he continued.
 What the country needs, is not great national leaders. however wise they may be, for they cannot per- petuate our liberties. What we need is the leadership of the average men and women in their own small spheres of life, who are willing to learn the lessons of history, and in their daily lives strive to promote honesty, thrift and intelligence.
 There is no danger from would be dictators in this country no danger from Communists, seeking to substitute equality for liberty; but there is danger from the iner- tia, the incidence, the carelessness of the average man and woman toward the government and the principles upon which this nation was founded and upon which it exists"

MINERAL SURVEY IS COMPLETED ON ADM MIRALTY
Geological Survey arty, Headed by Reed, in from
 Funter Bay, Hawk Inlet

A party of the United States Geo. logical Survey, under the direction of John c. Reed, has just complet- ed the field work of mineral inves- tigation of the area between Fun ter Bay and Hawk Inlet on the northern part of Admiralty Island.
 The Forest Service launch Ran ger 6 was chartered by the Geo. logical Survey for the work and the party, ih addition to MT. Reed, in cluded Scott Ford of Juneau, Geo. logic Assistant, Allen Sallee of Ket- chikan, captain of the launch, and Ernest Kruse, cook.
 About two months were spent in the area and a geologic map was made on a scale of approximately one inch to a mile, of about sixteen square miles, embracing the prin- cipal mineral showings in the vic- inity. As a base for the geologic mapping was used a portion of a topographic map of Admiralty 1s- land made by R. H. Sargent and re- gently issued by the Geological Sur vey
 Maps ana skeUcnes, much more detailed than the general geologic maps, were made of several small areas, within the larger map area, for the purpose of working out and illustrating certain features believed to be of importance for an under standing of the geology of the ore deposits All of the accessible un- derground workings, that aggregate several miles, were mapped geo. logicall yoH a scale of either one inch to forty feet or one inch to eighty feet.
 Collaborating quartz veins have been known for many years in the Hawk Inlet-Funter Bay area and one mine near Hawk Inlet is pro- ducing at the present time. In ad- dition to the deposits valuable prin- 1lPdlly lO1 BOlQs WlilIll OOllOtllll also other metals such as silver copper, lead and zinc, the area in- cludes one of the few nickel-cop- per-cobalt deposits known in Unit ed States territory.
 The gold and associated metallic minerals are found in bodies of quartz and in the adjacent wall rocks in a thick series of metamor- phic rocks composed principally of green stone schist and graphite phyllite. The nickel, however, oc- CUTS in the mineral pentlaudite that forms part of body of ultrabasiC rock that has been introduced into the oldest schist-phyllite series.
 After the laboratory work is com pleted on the material collected during the study it is to be expected that the detailed results of the in- vestigation will be issued in a pub lication of the Geological Survey

HOLLYWOOD, Cal Sept. l8.- Rare enough in any movie season is the film that abandons the boy meets-girl formula for some so- cial research. This year there have been three outstanding "signifi- cant" motion pictures: They Won't Forget" The Life of Emile zola,' and Dead End"
 Dead End" is this department movie of the month" This IS slightly embarrassing since Dead End" comes from Samuel Goldywn, the producer who gave us Stella Dallas" my last months best. But that can't be helped. See Dead End"-as you will If you are interested in pictures and their growth-and eXonerate me.
 Has a Flaw or Two
 This is not to say that Dead End, a screen play by Lillian He'll man based on Sidney Kingsley's stage success, is a flawleSs picture.
 As everyone knows by now, it treats of the case of the slum hoodlum and demonstrates, through slam-bang melodrama, what he is likely to become unless society takes steps.
 The message" is given punch by the great setting devised by art director, Richard Day after Nor man Bel Geddes' original stage set, by sundry sub-plots dramatic and melodramatic, and by William Wy lers direction.
 Wyler, rapidly becoming an au- thority on translating stage hits for the screen-with These Three" "Dodsworth" and now Dead End" on his list-useS the camera to blend the component parts of his story into smoothly flowing screen narrative. He does this so effec- lively that the single setting usu- ally a handicap, becomes an asset.
 One quarrel with the film is that the character played by Joel Me Crea tin the stage play crippled product of environmenD is here stalwart and romantic. This con- cession to boy -meets-girl demands may help the box-office, but not the pictures power Another an noyance, although admittedly mi nor, was the McCrea- Sylvia Sidney assumption of the duties of Greek chorus, chanting in dialogue the horrors and injustices about them.
 But I can skip that, and hail a decidedly worthwhile production. The actual stars are the gang boys Billy Halop, Huntz Hall, Bobby Jordan, Leo B. Gorcey, Bogart over acts, but effectively, as the killer, and Allen Jenkins as his aide is far above his usual comedy character ization. Wendy Barrie is good as the wealthy mans mistress in love with McCrea. and Claire Trevor, usually a romantic leading lady, steps down into her best perform ance in her one-role sequence as the prostitute
 Gregg Toland's photography is, as usual, first-rate.

 ANOTHER BUILDING BOOM

Anchorage this summer has ex- perienced one of the most active building seasons in it's history, with 42 new buildings, most of them res idences, being constructed at an ag- gregate cost of $100,50
 In addition to the new structures permits have been issued for the re- modelling, repairing and extension of 27 additional buildings.

say that they will not compromise
but they do when it comes to a show
down.
Henry Ford says he will not. I be-
lieve, him.
CLEAN FINANCIAL PAST
Most industries that John L. Lewis
is aligned against have financial pasts
that they are afraid to have too close
ly investigated.
The Ford industry is as clean as a
hounds tooth in that respect.
Most captains of industry have a
lot of stockholders and bondholders
to whom they are responsible. If they
have strikes, which tie up their opera
tions, they are fearful of them. The
Fords' holdings are wholly within
their own family.
CAN STOP
Most concerns cannot quit business
even if they desire to; they have OBJ
legations they must meet, under old
arrangements.
Ford hasn't any old agreements.
Organizer Richard D. Franken-
steen of the U. A. w. A. says, Henry
Ford will recognize the union or he
won't build cars"
Maybe not, but Ford can afford to
quit building cars, and continue tC
live on two or three hundreds of mil
lions of dollars of liquid money for
the remainder of his 70 years or So
What does he care?
Ford can't be "bluffed," anyway.

fort to determine how many books
will nave to be purchased for each
grade, Superintendent Erwin said. He
pointed out that in some subjects it
will be necessary to supply each child
With & textbook, while in some it may
be able to arrange it so that two or
perhaps even three children can use
the same text. The heads of the Vari-
ious divisions in the Department of
Public instruction have been asked
to submit their views, also to make
any suggestions with regard. to the
free textbook program, especially as
it may affect their particular branch
Superintendent Erwin said.
The State has made a good start to-
wards the purchase of the new text
books required as a result of the rem
tai system started two years ago, Su-
perintendent Erwin pointed out. All
of the books in the rental system will
now be made part of the free text
took system. 1t is also expected that
all of the rental systems heretofore
operated by city school systems, will
be taken over by the State and made
a part of the free book system.
The textbook commission, however
will still have a big job on it's hands,
in that it will have to purchase
enough new books and get them de-
livered before the time for the schools
to open this summer and fall. For in
some of the western counties, where
the schools have already closed, they
start opening again in July.

A Works Progress Administration
project from which labor will be sup

 Attorney Upson, the guest of honor, may become the choice of the Young Republicans for stand- ard bearer. MT. Upson's friends are reported anxious that he announce his candidacy. MT. Upson is very much interested and has been scan- ming the horizon for signals of en- couragement. Few have been forth coming from the older members of the party, but the young g. o.

Workers of the Fourth of July celebration committee of the Wash ington Park Community club will receive an ultimatum from Presi- dent Frank Sturges this evening to the effect that there will be no dis play of fireworks at the park this year unless the cash contributions become more numerous and gener- ollS.
 A regular meeting of the Com munity club is slated to take place this evening at the Community House. All members are expected to be present.
 President Sturges stated today that the manner in which funds for the display have been returned is far from inspiring, and most dis couraging in view of the high in- surance rates to be paid in addition to the basic price of the fireworks. Reports will also be heard tonight from the chairmen of the sub-com- mittees, including sports, entertain ment, and music.
 Discussion of the possibility of arranging for the purchase of new uniforms for the fife and drum corps may be held, but nothing definite will be accomplished in that line at this time, says MT. Sturges. Sev- eral of the veterans of the original corps, who resigned at its reorgani- zation, have shown indications of a desire to rejoin.

"PrOfiteering" on Part of Landlords Suspected as Complaints Increase = Shortage of First Class
 Rents Adds to Seriousness of Predicament

A serious problem in regard to housing evicted tenants is facing the members of the local welfare de- partment at the present time, the Democrat learned from a reliable sourse today. During the past two weeks there have been several fam- flies, paying rent, who have been unable to cope with situation which has cropped up when local landlords have raised rents. Evic- tions have been the result. Legal action is anticipated.
 This news would not be so ex- traordinary in itself if Investigations showed that after eviction of ten ants the rents remained idle and that other rents were available. But this is not the case. It is common knowledge that if Waterbury at the present time only a few magicians have been able to find rents. This, SO goes the information, does not apply to sco-called moderate rents. It applies to all rents.
 Aid Extended
 During the past few weeks, as a result of these evictions, the local department of welfare has had to take care of many families: Place. ating the sheriff; splitting up mem- bers of families; even putting some persons in furnished rooms and fur niture. Under ordinary circum- stances, it is understood, these fam lilies would probably be able to pay for rents.
 Just what will be the eventual result of this situation is 8 matter of speculation at the present time. And the speculators are not only the evicted people and the welfare department.
