The length and breadth of this vast northand is going to be that projected commercial air line. It already is on the projected round -the-word route of Pan American. Which means that Alaska possession of the United States, must have adequate airfields and communica- ton if it is going to keep abreast in commercial supremacy Some progress has been and is being made in that direction A sum of $45000O has been allotted in Federal funds to start such program this summer. The Territory is doing all that it can financially in furthering the But this is only
 beginning if Alaska and the United States is going to capitalize further commercial business by air.
 Alaska is longer just treasure house from which great wealth is produced. It has become one of the most strategic points in all Uncle Sams pos sessions. It is important point in the defense program and it is located on the very lines of aerial world commerce of the future.

Revenge or Law?
Cincinnati Enquirer)

 Europe recently has been closer to the brink Of major than at any moment in the last l9 years, The killing of more than a of German sailors by loyast planes and the subsequent bombardment of Almera, with similar death toll, have done two things They have brought IaloG German intervention in Spain into the open and have broken down the nonintervention agreement of 27 neutral nations.
 The question of responsibility cannot be answered until it is known with certainty whether the loyalist planes or the German battleshp Deutschland acted without provocaton. But the gravest danger arises from the German bolnbardment of Ameria, for thls was done by neutral patrol ships without first con- sulting the London Noninterventon Committee. II revenge by nasty national action is to supplan inter- national cooperation to enforce peace, the neutral patrol will become indictment to war, not preventive
 The Italian and German Governments in- creasng their naval forces Spanish waters Yet they have withdrawn from the Noninterventon Commit tee and acting for themselves. This means that their naval forces longer acting for an inter- national body to preserve peace in Europe but are acting for purely national ends-interventlon Tn Span's civil
 The London and Paris Governments have re- mained calm, but their warning to Berlin makes It clear that they will not tolerate further direct nos tilities on the part of Italy or Germany.

TIME FOR OFFICIAL ACTION IN
 BRISTOL BAY

Despite protests that been made for years against invasion by the Japanese of the Alaska lsh- ing banks in Bristol Bay, no action has been taken toward checking the aggressive competitor who catches our fish, takes them to Japan for canning or cans them floating canneries and then ships them back to the United States for sale at lower price than product can be produced due to cheaper labor.
 Now comes fresh protest based on the report that 26 big Japanese fishing vessels operat- ing just off the Alaskan shores and many smaller vessels The situation has gotten beyond the popular belief that couple of Japanese floating canneries catch and pack few fish in that area every season The two which used to be seen up there has multiplied until apparently the Japanese are moving an entire fishing fleet into front door deprving our American fishing companies and fishermen of just living.
 The evidence is mounting that the time is ripe in fact over-rpe for the State Department or some other department with proper authority, to act If one of the greatest industries in the world is not to be badly crippled, virtually extermnated, steps must be taken to protect the Alaska fishing banks
 The situation is not beyond control yet Japan is automatically smart but she is not going to be the one to make advances when all she has to do is go fishing off shores until official protest made It is up the United States with the support of Canada also suffers to make the advances Until official attention is paid to the Japanese they are gong to keep harvesting the fish harvest in Bristol Bay well as in other Alaska and Canadian waters If no action is taken it might well result Senator Homer T. Bone of Washington state has forecast in Japanese invasion of all Pacific Coast waters and the cities down the Pacific Coast will be able to see floating foreign canneries right off their coasts If Japan do it, and get away with it, why can not other nations take advantage of the same conditions? They can and it is not beyond the stretch of the imagina tion to suppose that they will Once entrenched the condition becomes hazardous.
 We hear lot of international complications. We can run into some international complications which may not wind up pleasantly unless diplomatic action is taken soon to protect the Alaskan fishing banks

 The seers warn of peril through excessive heat in certain parts of the country. Care in watching diet is enjoined.
 Farmers may discover new plant pests. While they will receive good prices for their products they will meet with unexpected hazards.

CALIFORNIA IS CHOICE TO WIN
Rose Bowl Bid, Conference Title Hinges on Stan.
 ford Test

Stanford University, Cal, Nov. IT. -CUP)-A Rose Bowl invitation goes on the auction block here Saturday and there will be only two bidders University of California's Golden Bears and Stanford University's h. dians.
 Eighty thousand football fans eX- pect slap-bang battle in Stanford Stadium-the "big game" of the Pacific coast-between the Califor- mia powerhouse and the Stanford opportunists.
 The winner undoubtedly will get the western Rose Bowl bid and the outcome will decide whether Califor- mia wins the Pacific coast conference race or whether the Bears and h. dians will be tied for leadership.
 If California wins-and the bet ting odds are in its favor by a com fortable margin-it's the Rose Bowl without a murmur. But if Stanford wins, the Pasadena Rose Tourna- ment selection committee is in for bad afternoon. With the two teams tied for first place in conference standings, the committee would have to be guided by sentiment.

By HENRY McLEMORE
tunited Press Stan Correspondent,

San Francisco, Nov. IS - (U.PD- Once upon 8 time there was 8 girl, and boy, and a knock-kneed horse.
 The boy said to the girl: T love you. Will you marry me?"
 The girl said to the boy: T love you, too"
 They were married.
 So now enter the horse and the girls father.
 The father, Big Jim" Parsons, prominent California racing man, whose silks are known to all, ob- jected to having his daughter, Daisy marry a jockey. The fact that the jockey was Harry Richards, Amer ica's greatest money rider, did not make any difference.
 To Big Jim", jockeys were little men whom he employed to work for him. They were not guests at his dinner table. Too, Daisy was his only girl. And she was an especial sort of girl. She held one of the few lie. enses as horse trainer ever grant, ed to women in this country. She got up early, and watched the work outs with Big Jim". To him her opinion of horse carried the most weight.
 Big Jim" raised hell when he heard that Daisy had eloped with Harry Richards. He didn't know
