King Carol of Rumania made speech Saturday

After the collapse of Poland there was a ten

SAVING MONEY FOR JUNEAU

Most citizens look on matters of municipal fin
ance as mysteries too deep for probing But the
fiscal policies of your city far important
to you than anything else which comes before the
City Council as they directly determine what YOU
shall pay in taxes
This week, the elimination of a year of eff
fort, the City of Juneau perfected and enacted a
plan of bond refinancng which will save the tax
payers thousands of dollars in interest and will pay
off the city's debt under painless automatic sched-
ule
Juneau has outstanding 1892 400 worth of bonds,
a third of a million in obligations owed by its
citizens The five issues of bonds making up this
total consist of 100000 in old paving bonds bearing
four percent interest, $4,000 in new Improvement
bonds bearing four percent interest $42 400 in boat
harbor bonds bearing four percent, 100000 in six
percent schools bonds and $4,000 in six percent
sewer bonds This weeks action by the Council
calls the last two issues and reissues them three
percent cutting the annual interest in two The say
ing in the first year alone will be $3.50 of your
money
The saving in interest due to this refinancing
achievement will over 15year period pay off
the entire principal
Many contributed toward making this forward
step possible Mayor Harry l. Lucas has been work
ing year to bring it about. Secretary of Alaska
E. L. (Bob) Bartlett has been helping Alaska Dele
gate Anthony j. Dmond obtained an act of Con-
gress making it possible for municipal corporations
in Alaska to refinance outstanding bond issues
An important feature of the ordinance which
the Council passed to put the refinancing plan in
effect creates a special fund to be known as the
ls4o General Obligation Refundng Bond Fund into
winch taxes will be paid annually to be used for no
other purpose than to pay interest and principal
on the new issue. BY 1855 the bonds will have been
retlred BY 1859, under a schedule worked out for
the city, all of Juneaus present bonds will have
been retired

OF Juneau owes the city administration thanks for
it. ss-g-,i-

Lynchings at All-Time Low
cleveland Plain Dealer)

cleveland Plain Dealer)
There were only three lynchings in the United
States in 1899 This is the encouraging news an
nounced at Tuskegee Institute in Alabama which
has kept a record of such crimes since 1882 The
1899 lynchings were fewer than for any other year
during this long period.
This is heartening testimony to better respect
for law and order But another influence may have
been the fact that Federal anti-lynching law
fairly near passing the last regular session of Con-
gresS. 1t will be urged again
If the threat of Federal law can thus discour-
age lynching is it not fair to that the actual
enactment of such legislation might not stop it al
together?
This thought Is offered in disparagement OF
the many sincere leaders in the south who are
striving to eliminate lynching through local and
state action, have forgotten that Ohios record
is not wholly clean regards this crime of coward
ly lawlessness. Incidentally it should be noted that
