DIMoND's RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENT

Probably never before in it's history has the Ter ritory of Alaska benefited so much in cold dollars and cents it has during the years that Anthony J Dimond has been the Territory's Delegate in Con- eress. Since the inception of the. Public Works Administration approximately six million dollars has come to Alaska for public improvements. But aside from this huge expenditure in the Territory, there are many other specific appropriations made for projects in the north as result of the efforts of the Delegate
 For example $7170OO was spent in Alaska during the fiscal year which ended last June for Civilian Conservation Corps activities What the eco has accomplished in aiding progress in the north is too well known to need reiteration here. But the work will go on as another $715,000 has been allotted for expenditure during the present fiscal year.
 Then there are such items as the Juneau small boat harbor which is to be undertaken shortly, at a cost of S232OOO to the War Department. Authoriza- tion has been given for small boat harbor project at Stka at a cost of $160000 The River and Harbol Act of 1888 carries $O5OOO for flood control and har- bor improvement at Skagway as well as an item of S68 800 for a small boat harbor at Valdez.
 During the last two years additional harbor inn provements have been authorized and undertaken as follows: Petersburg, $94OOO Wrangell $5600O; Nome S40OOO; Egegik $5O00; Cordoya, S295000; Seward s85 900; Dry Pass S79OOO; Stka $67350 In addition S160OOO has been set aside by the War Department for replacing and rebuilding the jetties at Nome (which were destroyed last winter by storm and an other $197O00 is earmarked for flood control at Lowel Creek in Seward
 The Postoffice Department recently set aside $200Gc0 the mail service from Seattle to Juneau and other appropriations have been made for air mail service.
 These but few of the direct appropria tons which have been made in Washington for the benefit of Alaska during the last couple of Alaska vii in the next few years much larger amounts spen in the Territory by the Army and Navy for defense purposes a subject on which the Delegate has beer of the leaders in arousing the entire nation tC the need for adequate defense of the northland
 It isn't necessary to deal in generaltes or gC back of the record in viewing the accomplishments of Delegate Dmond in the national capital for Alaska and it's people The results evident in every community in the north. As he honestly points out the record is not complete. There are many other Alaska problems which yet to be ironed out The persistent drive for roads, trails artields, com munications and ultimately the International High way must go on. The Delegate has made material progress on these. Alaskans should see to it that he goes back i'd continue the excellent work he already has done and the vast amount of work yet to be done

fairly hard to analyze, especially in view of the new rise to power of the so-caed defeated" Germany of 1918
 Most observers concede that the situation abroad is not conducive to peace With hundreds of thou sands of troops facing each other across border line and dctators hling threats and boasts almost anything happen. But it is probable some of the most conservative students point out, that actual war is still some distance away.
 Germany is slowly regaining territories which she lost in the last conflict and doubtless is determined to get the others but the best indication that open warfare is not definitely planned in Europe is the vast amount of bluff which is emanating from high sources Hitler has made all his progress by bluffing in regaining lost territory The chances that he bluffing more in the present situation. He is apparently trying to find out just how many inter- national friends Germany has, if any.
 Ultimately, will in Europe military machine such Germany is now building eventually will have to have outlet but it appears doubtful that the time has yet arrived.

CARDINAL HAYES

Death of Cardinal Hayes takes from the moving scene one of the nations outstanding churchmen and who has figured in many of the public discussions of recent years.
 The Cardinals views temperance widely quoted The Catholic Church stands always for tenn perance" he said There are the virtues of justice fortiude and prudence and temperance fits in with these three. If individual can't be temperate but abuses liquor he is bound by conscience to abstain entirely If immortality flows out of intemperance, there must be prohibition, but that doesn't mean that such prohibition should apply to all"
 During the Roosevelt administration Cardinal Hayes known as one who considered many New Deal measures practical applications of the famous papal encyclicals Leo XIIIs "Rerum Novarum" and Plus XI's "Quadragesimo Anno."
 But his friendship for the President did not re- strain him from defeating Roosevelts plan to have New York state approve the child labor amendment in 1937 At Rooseves request the passed the approving resolution. At the assemby's public hearing Bishop Gibbons of Albany read letter from the Cardinal which said:
 Primarily authority over the lives of children rests with their parents-and then if further pro- lection be required it should enacted and enforced by agencies in close touch with local conditions The surrender of these broad powers over the lives of children to a remote agency at Washington would contraVene the principles of form of government and seriously endanger the rights of parents. The need for permanent change in the relations between the states and the federal government this matter has not been demonstrated"
 Bishop Gibbons said all seven bishops of the state were united in this stand and in few days the as sembly overwhelmingly defeated the resolution.
 In April 1937 when the burlesque houses of the city were seeking renewal of their licenses Cardinal Hayes wrote to the license commissioner: "Informa- ton has come to of the spread evil influence and destructive results from these disgracefu and pernici- ous performances
 few days later burleSque was banned
 In December, 1885 advent sermon against birth control which he delivered at the Cathedral involved Cardinal Hayes in a controversy with some modern leaders of the Protestant and Jewish faiths public statement signed by thirteen clerics including Bishop Francis Mcconnell Methodist of Pittsburgh the Rev Harry Emerson Fosdck and Rabbi Sidney Godstein, rebuked him trying to dictate to other faiths and held his race suicide views 'baseless In reply Cardinal Hayes made public statement repeating the attack birth control and charging it's packers with ignoring morals and misusing science.
 Usually, however, Cardinal Hayes avoided con- troVersy. In 1883 when Father Coughlin Detroi.s radio priest addressed meeting at Madison Square Garden which booed Former Governor Smith it was not the Cardinal but his chancellor, Monsgnor Thomas G. Carroll, who entered the lists He told the press His (Coughin's) attack Governor Smith last night absolutely unwauanted.'
