Legislature Criticized

LegISlaIure CTttiClEeu
 "Our petitions and approximations addressed to our Legislature for a real local option law have gone un- needed and so the resultant condi- tions among our Indian villages have become deplorable, so much so that even our legislators have be- come alarmed at the growing con dition wherein entire villages far ther north barter their furs and other property for liquor. This in deed caused one Senator to introduce bill in the last Legislature to make it unlawful to sell or give liquor to Indians
 "Your officers were able to defeat this bill on the ground that it was plainly unconstitutional and for that reason it would not have been eff fective and also because we could not allow the principle of discrim- ination based on race to be estab- lished without protest.
 In order that the Legislature of Alaska and also the Congress of the United States might know that our position is not negative
 TT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that both the Congress of the Unit ed States and the Legislature of AL aska or either of them be requested to pass without delay a bill for a law regulating the sale of liquor in Alaska based upon permit system for both buyer and seller, containing a clause against the transfer of such permits, and that the Legislature prohibit the sale of liquor unless it be by Territorial liquor stores, and that Congress or our Legislature en- act the following proposed law namely,
 For an Act entitled; An Act pro- hibiting the selling of intoxicating liquor to residents and inhabitants of Alaska. providing for exceptions thereto, and for the punishment for violation thereof.
 BE IT ENACT ED BY THE LEG- .ISLATURE OF THE TERRITORY OF ALASKA:
 "Section 1. If any person shall, without the authority of the United States, sell, barter, or give to any person, any spurious, malt or vin- ous liquor, or alcoholic beverage. such person shall, upon conviction thereon, for the first offense be guilty of a misdeameanor and be fined not less than one hundred nor more than five hundred dollars or be imprisoned in the Federal jail not less than sixty days nor more than two hundred and fifty days, and upon each subsequent convic- tion of a like offense, if the fact of a previous conviction is pleaded in the complaint be guilty of mis- demeanor and be fined not less than two hundred and fifty dollars nor more than one thousand dollars, or imprisonment in the Federal jail not less than four months nor more than one year; provided, however that this Act may be waived and suspended by any incorporated city or school district by majority vote of the qualified voters therein at a special election if called within one year after the passage ol this Act, or at any subsequent regular cleo tion
 Section 2. Any one holding a Federal or Territorial license au- thorized hereunder to deal in and with intoxicating liquor who vio- lates any of the provisions of the preceding section, upon conviction thereof, shall have such license or licenses immediately revoked
 Section 8 This Act shall become effective on the first day of July, 194-."

AFFECTS OTHER CANDIDATES

Practically, McNary's entrance into the race has an important bearing on how well the other Republican delegates can invade the west. To date there are four other Senators seeking the nomination, actively or passively. They are Bridges of New Hampshire, Taft of Ohio Vanden- berg of Michigan and Capper of Kansas
 It is well known that Capper's only interest in the business is to marshal the midwest bloc behind a farm program. Except as there may be difference of opinion on what the farmers need--and no Republi- can has advanced whole program yet-Capper and McNary should not be in conflict.
 But with McNary seeking west ern delegates, it will place the other senatorial figures in diffi- cult position to contest with him for the votes. Moreover, if he real ly becomes the leader of the isola- tionist group, he will be definitely aligned with Vandenberg in that respect and solidly opposed to Taft.
 McNary has long been impor- tant politically because of his sena- torial leadership And since his party fellows cannot suspect him of White House ambitions, he could easily blossom into first rank political leadership nationally.

Few persons who travel over the

construction of the road is checked
and tested by the division of tests oi

While discussing the matter. w
w. Mack. Chief Engineer of the High

is impossible to know from the label
ON the box of commodity whether
or not it is good and properly suited
for its intended purpose.
Therefore, when concern submits
their road building materials it is
the duty of the division of tests to
thoroughly check and know that each
shipment received strictly conforms
to the rigid specifications prepared
by the department.
The application Of these tests as
sures that the roads are built with
the best of materials and which are
not only better for construction pur-
poses but also will last for longer
period.
Few persons are familiar with the
wide scope of the work OF the divi-
sion of tests. Its activities seldom

are made on all of the materials used

LACK OF CAUTION
ACCIDENT CAUSE
Safety Council Issues Warning As
Death Toll Mounts

According to the Delaware Safety
Council, about three-quarters of our
motor vehicle accidents are the direct
results of lack of caution, and of in
attention. Perhaps this is due to the
fact that an operator has been some
what careless and inattentive and
just got away with it and thinks he
can always do so. Consequently
some of our most skillful operators
are our worst, although that state
ment should be qualified. These so
referred to as skillful are so only
from the standpoint of actual manip-
ulation and performance with the car,
and are much below the best, in fact.
