Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

GOOD nature Is always easily i'm
posed upon. 1t sometimes is easier
70 avoid unpleasantness than to stand
up and face it. The result may be,
and often is, the forming of habit
tns habit Of running away from trouble.
1t was so with Happy Jack the Gray
Squirrel All his life he had been in
the habit of running away from his
small cousin, Chatterer the Red Squir-
vel. In Happy Jacks eyes the Chat
terer was trouble personified. When
they met there was quarrel no mat
ter how carefully Happy Jack tried to
avoid it, and it always ended with
Chatterer chasing Happy Jack out of
the neighborhood. The result was that
Chatterer thought that his big cousin
was afraid of him, and all the neigh
bors thought the same thing.
Sammy Jay had seen Chatterer chase
Happy Jack from a certain maple tree,
the buds of which were just now good
eating, a welcome change from the
winter fare of nuts and acorns and
some seeds. Sammy was filled with
scorn As he watched Happy Jack run,
Chatterer at his heels. You see Chat
terer was barely half the size of Happy
JACK. Presently Chatterer, chuckling,
returned to that tree and began to

breakfast on those tender buds.
Sammy few on after Happy Jack had
found him running this way and that,
back and forth. He was hunting for
acorns buried there by himself long
ago in the fall and now hard to find.
Hello, coward" said Sammy Jay.
Happy Jack sat up abruptly. Who
eays I'm coward?" he demanded
L CO." snapped Sammy Jay. Il saw
Chatterer chase you out of the maple
tree a short time ago"
oh, that" said Happy Jack in a
tone that suggested that it was mat
ter OF no consequence.
Yes, that" snapped Sammy Jay.
You ran away from that little bully.
He chased you out of that tree and YOU
ran as long as he ran after you. He
isn't half your size, yet you are afraid
OF HIM You're a coward"
I'm not afraid of him." snapped
Happy Jack.
oh, yes, you are" jeered Sammy.
L m not. just don't like him. I
don't want anything to do with him."
retorted Happy Jack
No coward wants anything to do
with the one he fears, so he runs
away" said Sammy. You always
run from Chatterer. I've seen YOU
% 1t time and again So have all
yonr nelghbors. Ask any one around
here what the neighbors think of VOL
You're a coward and everybody knows
It."
Happy Jack grew angrier and an
erlsr Sammy flew away and as he
flew he called back Coward! Coward |!
Coward" Sammy's voice is sharp and
carries far. Happy Jack could hear
sammy long after he had disappeared
Inc more he thought over his wrongs
ME angTier he became. Finally he
made up his mind that he would show
fohs that he was not a coward Rack
toward that maple tree he headed He
hoped that Chatterer was still there,
ChatteFsr was. He didn't see Happy
Jack coming. The first he knew of
me reau1n Of his big gray cousin was
the sound of claws on the tree. He
looked down to see Happy Jack coming
sp, and there was a look on Happv
Jacks face that Chatterer didn't like
ne started down to meet Happy Jack
IN his usual manner, making all sorts
Of threats.
IhS time Happy Jack didn't turn
end run. He kept right on coming IF
anything he came faster than ever
eHatterer hesltated, stopped, turned
shd ran. That big cousin of his meant
night and Chatterer had no desire to
night. not with one 50 much bigger
than himself anyway. So he ran. and
naTn1c starter to run he had to keep
on running. SO it happened that
sammy jay, returning that way, dis
covered Chatterer running as if for his
hfe, and Happy Jack at his very heels.
The tables were turned.

AN OPPORTUNITY TO RELIEVE JUNEAU'S TRAFFIC PROBLEM

Juneau has been afflicted with growing pains for the last several years It has become pronounced in the last year or two buildings sprout up around the town and traffic becomes notceably heavier Conservative estimates now place the actual population within the city limits at between 5000 and 65O0 It may be a little more or little less. We'll know exactly next year when the national census is taken again
 But no one denies that Juneau is growing by leaps and bounds, and of the resulting problems is the handling of automobile traffic in narrow down. town streets.
 The problem was emphasized during the Fourth of July celebration this year For good many years it had been customary to hold at least some of the events downtown. But this year in urging that all the events be held in the recreation park police and fire officials pointed their principal objection was based on the traffic problem Shutting off of but one block they stressed, would complcate matters for the police and fire apparatus in case of emer- gency due to the few avenues available downtown for traffic to move On this premise, it finally accepted to hold no events the downtown streets
 The Fourth of July celebration is but one instance Daily. officers are confronted with the congested traffic problem, especially downtown, and more automobiles come into the community with our growing population One proposal which would tend to relieve the situation, is being advanced in the plan to widen South Seward Street from Front to Wioughby making it a two-way traffic avenue instead of the narrow one-way street it is Such an improvement undoubtedly would make for freer flow of traffic and relieve much of the congestion existing Front and particularly Franklin Street. the principal through town avenue. There is some objection the proposal and like every other ques ton of this kind probably of the objection is well taken It may be as some contend that the cost the city of acquiring the land for widening the street is too high in comparison with the benefits to be obtained It may be debatabe question today. but it will not be for long Juneau continues to grow and that growth forces action to widen our streets that traffic freely
 Regardless of the other merits demerits Of the proposal the narrow street problem in Juneau is enough to warrant the cys giving very careful con- sideraton to the present plan. The time is coming when it will have to be done other rearangements will have to be made in downtown streets If the city can obtain the necessary money without crippng it's financial strucure-it involves matter of around s10000-it would seem to be excellent foresight to grasp the opportunity. However, ii those in charge of city finances cannot their way clear to ahead with the proposed project they might well figure to start saving larger amounts for that similar projects in the years to come for as the city grows

JChn l.. Lewis on Freedom
(New York World-Telegram)


 A man named Max Banks was arrested for pedding pamphlet without obtaining a permit. The pamphlet published by the Socialist Labor party, is entitled John L. Lewis Exposed" It says some pretty tough things about the Committee for Indus trial Organization leader. denouncing him labor faker and a capitalist tool
 Max Banks taken before Magistrate Morris Rothenberg, who dismissed the charge holding that to require permit for the sale distribution of printed literature would violate the constitutional guarantee of free press.
 We applaud the magistrates decision But the when he heard about it.
 T glad there will be no further restrictions on the right to peddle this pamphlet The American people have the right to distribute and read dissenting views matter how distorted and preiudiced they may be. The magistrates ruling is enlightened one, in accord with our best traditions I hope the members of the CIO may have as much freedom to distribute their handbills and sell their publications as the CIO is willing to accord to it's enemes.'
 A fine statement, MT. Lewis making clear three tremendously important points:
 1 That freedom of the press is not a special privilege for owners of newspapers and magazines but right extended to the humblest citizen who wants to print handbills or peddle pamphlets. 9 That it includes even the right to express dis torted and prejudiced views.
 g. That those who want freedom to express their own opinions should defend the right of others to express contrary opinions.

THE SENATOR MAY CHANGE HIS MIND

During an interview on the International High way in Seattle recently Senator Robert Reynolds of North Carolina. who is coming to Alaska on a trip, quoted saying:
 We can't afford to build Alaska highway over British territory England, whom we saved by our aid in the World War could well afford to cede us corridor say 100 miles wide, through Canada to connect Alaska with the United States"
 The repercussions caused by Senator Reynolds remarkable statement are almost as deafening along the coast the bombs reported dropping along the Manchuokuo- Siberian border Perhaps not as deadly. but certainly potent The Senator by this time doubt has found out that he put his foot into something.
 And there isn't much wonder Canada is our good neghbor and the unguarded border between the two countries is model to the world of how nations get along peaceably without quarreing. Despite Senator Reynolds utterance we suspect the fine neighborliness will continue. Canada after all knows enough about Us as a nation and people to know that occasionally in our midst arises a public figure displaying ignorance which is almost rvaed. Therefore it may be more important to set the Senator the right track than to apologize to a good neghbor who knows about our weaknesses for expression. The Tacoma News Tribune did it rather ably the other day in these words:
 "A United States Senator, above all persons should know that Canada is an independent nation and member of the British Commonwealth of Ma tions Great Britain could no more cede to the United States a part of Canada than North Carolina could give away part of the state of Washington
 One can imagine the uproar which would occur in the state of Washington if the Governor of North Carolina should propose cedng part of the territory of the state of Washington to British Columbia for trade concessions to North Carolina. But that would be about sensible the North Carolina Senator's idea
 Having neatly exploded the Senator's bomb, the News Tribune goes on to make a point which is worthy of reteraton regardless of Reynolds utter ance. The United States, it says "does want to build highway to Alaska which will necessarily have to be built through Canadian territory It could very properly make the Dominion of Canada or the Province of British Columbia. a loan to be repaid from tolls over the highway. This highway would cement the friendly bonds that now exist between Canada and the United States"
 After all, the highway is the important thing not what one person ill-advsedly says about it with cut proper knowledge. The Senator may change his mind he finds out about it.
