GOLDSTEIN 10
 OPPOSE ICkES'
 REFUGEE PLAN
Alaska Not inc Place for European Settlers, He
 Tells Chamber

Charles Goldstein, probably the outstanding Jewish business man of the Territory, declared today that he is absolutely not in favor of the proposition" of Secretary Ickes to settle Alaska and develop industry here with European refu- gees
 Speaking at today's Juneau Chamber of Commerce meeting, Goldstein said he couldn't see the sense of bringing these people in here" There is no opening for them, he said, and Il settlers who would be admitted from Eu- rope would not be of a type which could get along in Alaska,
 This is not an agricultural coun- try and not a manufacturing coun- try" he stated.
 T am willing to help these peo- pie personally in any way I can, he said, but this is not the way to do it.
 No Race Prejudice
 In introducing Goidstein, Presi- dent Charles w. Carter of the Chamber said Alaskans had been accused of having prejudice against the Jewish race, but that the accusation was absolutely false and that all opposition to the set clement proposal among Alaskans was based upon economic grounds.
 "If Congress wants to throw down the immigration bars to the whole United States, we have no objection" Carter said. He stated, however. that Alaskans would be very much opposed to having an immigration law here which set the Territory off from the rest oI the Nation.
 Fact Finding Committee
 The Executive Board of the local Chamber has appointed a fact finding committee which will gather data on the proposal to be laid before a Congressional Com mittee. The local committee con sists of Allen Shattuck, Chairman H. L. Faulkner and George Sund- borg.
 It was mentioned at today's meeting that local groups through out Alaska would center thei' work on the problem in the Ter ritorial Chamber of Commerce anf probably send representative t. Congress to present the Alaska ar 1 gument.

Why Doesn't University
Honor lis profs Instead
OF Distharging Them!

The State School of Mines has
honored one of its veteran faculty
members, Professor Lester ]. Hart
zell, who has taught in its halls for
IS years. That seems to us to be
the way that an institution of
higher learning should conduct it.
self toward its elder members.
In contrast the situation at the
State University in Missoula seems
quite deplorable. We have been told,
by persons who know, that there is
not an older man on the University
faculty who has any faith in the
University administration, Or who
expects any honor at the end Of his
career.
We know what has happened
to Dean Stone, to DR.. Rowe, to Dr..
Merriam, to DR. Lennes, and to Dean
Mollett. We have heard what other
older men at the University are eX-
pecting. This would not be so sur
prising if the University had no
record of good performance. But
Montana State University has sent
out its full share of good scientists
and scholars and writer's. It has pro-
duced many Rhodes scholars and
many well educated women who
are fine leaders in their home COM
munities all over the states. We
think that all these graduates are
beginning to wonder what is wrong
at the State University. Why can
not the University, like the College
and the School of Mines, honor the
men that have made the institu-
ton? Isn't there a way that a Uni
versity president can bring new
blood into his school and keep it
without doing dishonor to the men
who are older?
=
We have been trying to under
stand what are the significant things
about all this mess at the Universe
ty. Clearly enough the Missoula
business men-or rather a little
group of them-have been assuming
too much of a hand in the State
U~niversity's affairs, and clearly
enough these men have forced a man
into the presidency of the Universe
ty who has not yet impressed any
one with either his moral or his in
~tellectual stature. But is that the
real trouble? What about the Board
of Education? How did they let such
a man into the presidency? And
why have they let him mislead them
in so many problems? They have
erred in the Keeney case. Two ma
tional associations and two courts
have reported it so. They have all
lowed the president to bungle the
Phillips case, apparently. At least
two investigators of national note
have reported it so. And last, but
hardly least, they have taken a
recent action that has aroused pro-
test from all corners of the nation.
Montana's board has become a by
word for bungling in the last few
years. What is the trouble with the
board?
Two years ago the State Fedora
ton of Labor passed a resolution in
favor of an elected Board of Educa-
ton. To date, in as many cases as
we can remember, the votes of the
elected members of the board have
seemed to be the wiser. This may
be due to the fact that the elected

Use GRANITE IN
YOUR BUILDING
Quarry Workers of Butte Boost
ing Home Products.

A suggestion for the Government
Housing Administration of Butte.
Is there anything more substan-
tial than rock for the foundations
OF a building? We think not. There
are stone houses standing today that
were erected hundreds of years ago
and are in as good condition now as
they were at the period in which
they were butt.
Time and the elements seem to
have but little effect on good rock.
Within a few miles of Butte there
is some of the finest granite rock
that can be had. The U. S. govern
ment has a quarry project in opera
ton there sponsored by funds of
Silver Bow county.
The rock at this quarry, under the
capable direction of the foreman,
Joe Bouchard, can be cut to any
dimensions from a door-stoop to an
obelisk by the craftsmen employed
at the project.
Believing in patronizing and
boosting home industry and products
we don't think this slogan could be
more fittingly carried out at this
time than by using Butte granite for
Butte buildings quarried by Butte
citizens.

The OPEN FORUM

The Open Forum which made its
initial appearance in the old high
school auditorium on November 1C
should, and likely will, become a
vital point of community thoughtful
activity where local and important
national questions a be brought
up and discussed. The lack of under
standing amongst Jul growing
youth of business matters and ma
tional affairs, sadly neglected in
favor of amusement and sport ac-
tivities, indicates the need Of some
serious and vitality important af-
fairs concerning our future.
While the subject matter under
discussion, How Can U. S.. Be Kept
Out of the European WARP" was
clearly brought out by four able
speakers but nc m appeared to
present the other side. Any ques-
ton regardless of its popularity or
dislike invariably has two sides
which could be presented in alter
mating order, lacking which it would
not be an open forum in its truest
sense. In spite of the fact that the
audience was rather small and the
auditorium rather cold, some inter
esting points were brought out,
everybody seemed to be in full ac-
cord with the speakers in a firm
conviction that the United States
should keep out of the present
European war.
When the Open Forum gets into
its full stride, it would be advisable
for the public to leave written re-
quests at the office naming what
subjects they want presented. These
Forums are intended for the gen
eral good and open to the public
free of charge and should be freely
patronized and made popular.

N The
A. F. OF |.

To keep union membership in
formed of the aid it has given tc
education, the American Federation
of Labor compiled recently a book
let of its announcements, resolu-
tions and acts from its first con-
vention in 1881 to the Houston.
Texas, convention in 1888. The
booklet, entitled Labor and Educa-
tion," lists the educational activities
of the A. F. of L. chronologically
either by title or by excerpt from its
resolutions. 1t contains a complete
index.
From the early years of its or
ganization when it declared for COM
pulsory education of all children ur
to the age of IA years coupled with
its demand for abolition of child
labor, the American Federation Of
Labor has advocated a c%omprehen-
sive system of progressive educa.
ton. AS early as 1909 it began tc
push forward a program for voca-
tional education, which down to the
present time has been one Of its
major interests.
Among the many other %objectives
which it is supporting in the field
of education T classes for handi-
capped children, a complete system
of physical education and ample
Fairgrounds, nursery schools, kind
ergartens, extension of a program
of edult education, emphasis upon
the social studies, a program of con-
tinuous education, an educational
program for the CCC camps, a fed
eral department of education with a
secretary in the cabinet, study Of
school finances, federal loans for
education to equalize educational
opportunity, relief for schools in
drought areas, adequate appropria-
tons for schools at all times, protec-
ton of teachers in the right to or
ganize, in tenure, in minimum wage
scales, and in the right of academic
freedom.
