place Of religious convocation which
its motivators had evisioned. The
years took heavy toll in necessary ex-
penses and leadership until it was
feared that the tabernacle and its
surrounding acreage would have to
revert to the holding company under
the original conditions of its agree

late Earle Wilhey not only proved
himself dynamo of rejuvenation in
sustaining the religious meetings at
the tabernacle in Bethany Beach, but
laid the foundations for the present
series of youth and adult conferences
which are now being featured as well
in the recently constructed building
adjacent to the tabernacle.
Here, dormitory facilities are COM
bined with assembly rooms for the
sessions. A Today one for young
people has recently adjourned. Today,

SEATTLE'S NEW DEAL

Seattle voters at the municipal election in that ciy yesterday gave a slap the antics of labor in Sthe Puget Sound metropolis. Lieut. Gov. Victor A. ylAeyers labors avowed candidate, able to muster ,1ut slightly 48000 while Councilman Arthur sLanglie boiled nearly 79o00 to be elected Mayor of the city It was the second defeat for labor in Se- mary Mayor John F. Dore, reputedly backed by the Dave Beck labor faction eliminated from the con- test when he finished a poor third to Meyers with Langlie even then the top choice.
 Langes connection with organization. if any is with the Cincinnatus Club sort of good government group He declared himself in the campaign not unfriendly to labor but he did state he thought it was up to labor to put it's own house in order and that labor would not be permitted to run rampant over individual citizens and business The voters of Sea-, g,.-,- beea hotbed for strife for the last two years, apparently in hearty accord with him
 We in the north, who on several occasions have been vctimzed by labor troubles in Seattle will watch the new Seattle administration with great deal of interest hopeful that steamship teups will be passe under Seattles new deal.
 The rank and file of labor after a seize of leadership by whose interest in labor is probably the result of personal ambition rather than a real concern for the laborer should also profit from Seattle's new deal At least labor will have an op- portunity follow Mir Langlies advice and put its own house in order

travel return if capitalize on it. There seems to be sound why these rugged, snow wclad sur rounding mountains should not be just attractive to the winter sport fan as the mountain country of any other section of the world In all probability they can be made attractive to visitors from the Outside for the simple fact that they located in Alaska which trad1tdhay has lure for the traveller.
 It seems to us that winter sports program aimed to draw visitors from the Outside well as for the entertainment of our own enthusiasts could very well have a place in the general tourist development pro- gram of the Territory. Why concentrate solely a tourist business confined to few short months in the summer when it could, backed by sufficient enter prise, be made equally attractive proposition in the winter months?
 In connection with the Alaska development pro gram being undertaken by the Alaska Planning Coun- c study is to be- made of the tourist industry and recreation. Winter sports would appear to have a very definitesb sblace in that study.

The Federal Courts
(New York Times

The Roosevelt Administration returned to the question of congestion in the Federal courts and this time it has gone about the matter in precisely the right way It will be remembered that just year ago the President proposed not only to add six justices the Supreme Court itself but also to appoint addi tional judges Cup to the number of forty-four) for those present judges Of the lower Federal courts who chose to remain on the bench after reaching the age OTTO ls.> $@
 The argument advanced in behalf of this proposal was that overcrowded dockets had slowed down the processes of justice That this state of affairs did actually exist and that it still exists in various Circuit Courts and District Courts there be no doubt Unfortunately, however, the Presidents plan poorly devised to remedy the situation of which com plant rightly made. For since the plan was based entirely upon the arbitrary factors of and the willingness or unwillngness of present judges to retire there could be whatever that the additional judges would be appointed for those courts in which congestion actually existed. As matter of fact the Senate Judiciary Committee made the dis covery upon examination of the plan that most of the judges would be appointed in circuits and districts where the work of thecours to date and where additional judges therefore, were not needed.
 It was pointed out at the time but ignored by the Administration that the right way to attack the problem of congestion on the basis of need, not age-by the simple and direct method of increasing the number of judges specifically in those courts whose business is actually in arrears This is the method which is being followed Attorney Gen. eral Cummings has appeared before Senate Jldici- a1y subcommittee to recommends adoption of the Ashurst-Hatch bill, which would add four Circuit Court judges and twentythree lower court judges the Federal bench-for specific courts in which the Department of Justice finds after examination of the dockets, that additional judges are actually qured. @o-aa~t -avs-s44. q
 The present bill ought to be given prompt con- sderation. Had it been brought forward year ago and had the Administration then supported it. instead of confusing the issue by Jumping ineffective plan for tl,p Ep6p vith Supreme Court plan should be closer to solution of the problem of congestion than today

GOOD MINING YEAR FORECAST

Like the birds, the mining men are heading north. Each boat brings of them back from their visits Outside and all of them without excep- ton, have been combining business with pleasure with the accent the business during their winter weeks or months in the south In other words they have been buying equipment-drag lines, dredges and what-not in preparation for better season in 1938
 Unless all signs fail Alaska is going to have one of the best mining years in its history. Hardly a miner passing through here from and to the Interior and Westward but has given indication of expansion during the forthcoming season. at least of carrying on profitable operations which already have been underway for several seasons.
 These cheerful comments from the men who seek the valuable metals do not that the Territory is necessarily in for boom Very likely there will be nothing of the kind. But it does indicate definitely that there will be vast mining operations from Norton Sound to Eagle and from the Kobuk country to the Southeast this coming summer comparable if not exceeding the operations of 1887 with the result that we in Alaska won't have much time to worry about the reported recession.
