BILL TO HELP ALASKA TOWNS REDUCE DEBTS

WASHINGTON, D. C. In order that municipal corpora tions and public utility districts in Alaska having bonded indebt- edness subject to redemption may have the benefit of low inter est rates that are now in effect, Delegate Dimond on April 20, in troduced a bill in the House to authorize such towns and dis tricts to refund the original in- debtedness through issuance of new bonds bearing lower rates of interest.
 The Delegates purpose in in- troducing the measure is solely to reduce the debt burden of those towns and districts in the Territory that issued bonds for construction of schools, street improvements, and other public works when the prevailing rate of interest was higher than it now is, and in order to guard against any manipulation of bond ing activities that might not work toward this economic end, the bill carries a provision "that the total debt of the municipal cor poration or public-utility district shall not be increased by such refunding operations.

How to Sell to Latin America
lPhiladelnhia Recor

It is stimulating news that a number of prominent American retail executives have met with Undesecre tary Edward J. Noble Of the Department of Commerce to plan increase of mutual trade with Latin Amer ca Everybody talks about improving our trade with Latin America; few try to do anything about it. What distinguishes the current effort that it proposes specific plan for such trade increase
 Latin America says MT. Noble, had planned to place orders for $25OO00O00 of goods in Germany The war canceled these proposed purchases. The United States is able and willing to take this business One difficuya substantial one-stands in the way: Latin America only pay for these goods by selling goods of it's own of similar value
 The retailers representing some of the largest American organizations are prepared to buy manu- factured articles in Latin America that formerly glassware socks gloves rugs formerly purchased across the Atlantic Every such purchase (and these would not compete with American production) would with out adversely affecting give Latin America addi tional dollar credits to be used in buying American goods The plan calls for establishment of a trade center in New York City for exhibition of Latin- American wares.
 This seems most promising. For too many years the history of foreign trade policy has been the history of effort to sell abroad without buying abroad. That this cannot be done any permanent basis is one of the oldest clches of economics It is aggravatng clche, because it happens to be truth, both rite and pertinent. Unless unforeseen objections arise the plan to constitute the rudi ments of practical proposal for increased trade and increased hemspherical solidarity.

START OF THE WAR

It may be difficult for future historians to set a satisfactory date for the beginning of the present war Technically, of course it began September when Great Britain and France declared war on Germany Actually, it had already started when Germany in- vaded Poland Others will argue and quite conync- ngly that it began when the Russo-German pact for the partition of Poland was signed still others will insist that it got under way when the diplomatic defeat of Britain and France at Munich resulted in Germanys seizure of Czechoslovakia.
 Even this will not satisfy those who hold that Germany has been at ever since Hitler came into power To them his marches into the Rhineland and Austria simply bloodess battles won in the new technique of the white war" which is the first phase of the inevitable red war" to follow But whether or not one sees any merit in Hters arguments against the injustice of the Treaty of Versailles he certainly used German resentment against that treaty to solidy the German people and reestablish the German mill tary machine. This would carry the beginning of the present back to the end of the last and justify the remark credited to Marshall Fooh at the time Of the 1918 Armistice: Gentlemen, the war is postponed for 20 years" In this view the present war is only the second chapter of the conflict that started in 1914
 The trouble with such a view of events is that it really leaves no stopping place whatever the whole long road Of history. The mind promptly wanders paek 10 the FTanco-Prlssian War sowing the seeds of two future conflicts and from there revarts to the panoramic campaigns of Napoleon, which his admirers say might have established United States of Europe but which only ended in divisions that have never healed
 Link by link we can follow the chain of events right back to Germanicus, representing the ordered law Of Roman civilization, urging his legions on the Rhine against Arminius the head of furious Teu- tonic legions This would carry back to the first century of the Christian era. Nevertheless it is curious fact that Germanics had his headquarters at Treves or Trier only few miles from the trenches where today's battle lines are drawn

 Marshall loved the northland. Tn the past two years he spent his vacations in Alaska, choosing strenuous few weeks of mountain climbing basking the sands in Florida California. His attempts to climb Doonerak, which he discovered and which he believed to be the highest mountain north of the Arctic Circle. unsuccessful But there is little doubt Bob Marshall would have been back next year try again.
 His book, Arctic Village" a searching social study of personal lives of the Natives in Wiseman, Alaska, will give Robert Marshall a certain immortality Many said after publication the that Marshall would not dare return to Wiseman But he went back more than and always held esteem by the resi- dents there.
 A few years ago epidemic ragged in Bob Mar shalls Arctic village. Five thousand miles away in effee Washington, he heard about it got busy at telegraph office A doctor from Fairbanks flew to Wiseman in chartered plane and treated the Ma tiyes, arrestng the epidemic all at Marshars expense
 Bob Marshall the kind of man men argue about The argument does not end with his death Few who met this provocative character will for get him Perhaps he has at last reached the heights of Doonerak.

Mrs. Jack Liyie, Chairman of the Department of American Home for the Juneau Woman's Club. presided at the regular monthly social meeting of the organization held yesterday afternoon at the Lutheran Church parlors.
 The program arranged by Mrs. Livie featured the Thanksgiving theme, and was thoroughly enjoyed by those attending The story of the first Thanksgiving in America was Interestingly given by Mrs. Russell Cock, under the title "The Marys and Marthas" Mrs. Cook s article covered the difficulties ex- perienced in preparing the three day feast for l50 people, part of them visiting Indians in full war paint and regalia the kinds of food served, and the method of service. All four of the sixteen women who survived the first tragic year at Plymouth united to prepare the feast and do the many things nec- essary in making a success of this harvest festival, and the difficulties attending their efforts in a wilder ness 5000 miles from supplies such as they were accustomed to, were explained in detail.
 
 Mrs. Russell Hermann spoke briefly on the subject What Thanksgiving Means to Me This Year" stressing the additional cause for thankfulness in that we are still permitted to live in a country where we may think what we wish and say what we think, without danger of being sent to concentration camp"
 Two excellent piano numbers by De Bussey, played by Mrs. l.. P Dawes, added delightful variety to the program, and the singing of God Bless America" led by Mrs w. E. Cahill, was fitting con- clusion to a program having spec ial significance because of chaotic world conditions.
