Chamber Holds
 Noon Luncheon

The regular business meeting of the N. w. Alaska Chamber of Commerce met in the North Pole Bakery Tuesday Noon.
 The following telegram was re- ceived from the Alaska Miners Association of Fairbanks:
 Senator Tydings has wired that Senate committee begin hear ings May 13 Senate bill 3577 to colonize Alaska Stop Time so short that we request you wire Senator King Chairman subcom mittee to give earnest considera- tion to material already sent to Senator Tydings in opposition this bill and urge them to cause thorough investigation be made in Alaska before action is taken Stop We have wired that pas sage this bill would spell disas- ter for Territory as we are now over-run by thousands of men looking for work and Territory probably have to care for them or ship them back to States Stop Also limited Territorial revenues would not allow for the large ex pansion of school facilities that would be required Stop Allowing European emigrants to enter Al aska would surely be disasterous.
 On motion the secretary was instructed to wire Senator King opposing the Bill as it is now pro posed and urging that the mater al sent to Senator Tydings be given careful consideration and that. Alaska be given sufficient time to thoroughly investigate the Bill and allow the Alaska Legislature at their next session to have voice in the matter.
 The mail Committee was in- structed to obtain local coopera- ton in remonStration of the de- lay and non-dispatching of first class mails from Nome to Fair banks and vice versa. It is hoped that pressure can be brought tC bear on the Post Office Depart ment to move all first class mai, offered by plane in addition tc the letter mail that accumulates at either end.
 On motion the transportation committee has been instructed tc prepare resolutions to be submit ted to the Alaska Steamship Con pany protesting the cancellation of the August passenger boat anc the Arctic Cruise.
 The next meeting of the Chan Der will be the Board meeting t, be held next Tuesday at the Ne, ada Grill.

Radiant Living
BY Rev. c. II. Griffeth
Pastor Ridgely N. E. Church
Ridgely, Md.

While going through a town the
other day I saw a sign which read:
Selling Out" The sign set me
thinking.
A great many people are selling
out today-but selling out too
cheaply.
Remember Esau? For the mere
pleasure of enjoying a good din
ner, did he not sell his priceless
birthright?
What men and women pay today
for an hours indulgence in graf
flying the desires that rise within
them Is tremendous. The money
paid is the smallest part of the
price they pay.

FRENCH LEADERS
 PLACED IN JAIL
Daladier, Gamelin, Lac chambre, Blum Await
 Trial for Betrayal

Riom, France, Nov. 18.-CUP)-- Four leaders of republican France waited behind the barred windows of larg5 S17m house today for t.s. t7 :ss. on a charge of betraying their country into defeat by Germany.
 Former Premiers Edouard Dala- dier and Leon Blum, Gen. Maurice Gamelin, and Air Minister Guy La chambre, have been transferred to the new Bourrassol jail near here, indicating that the supreme court would star, their trials soon. La Chabre recently returned voluntar- fly from the United States to face trial, confident of vindication,
 They had been held in the castle of Chazeron, a gloomy prisonlike structure lacking electricity, plumb ing and other modern comforts Former minister of colonies ard ot the interior Georges Mandel and Paul Reynaud, former premier, re- main at Chazeron on indictments now being investigated by the court
 The court was created by Marshal Henri Philippe Petain's government to establish responsibility for the fall of France.
 Galemin, Daladier, Blum and La chambre not only face a charge of neglecting the national defense and directly compromising the nation by foreign and domestic policies, but 1t was learned that the supreme court also is investigating the method of Frances entrance into the war to see if 1t did not violate the consti- tuition.
 The court believes, it was report ed, that government leaders eX- ceeded their power when war was declared by cabinet decision with out the ratification of parliament.
 Blum, who headed two popular front cabinets in 1886 and 1887, is charged with betray.:Sg the nation iT carrying out his duties as pre- mier. It was under his government that a national 40-hour work law was enacted which greatly reduced the production of war industries, particularly airplane factories. Blum also will be judged for the wide spread sit-down and general strikes during his premierships.
 Daladier, Gamelin and Lachambre will have to answer for their de- cisions in the prosecution of the war against Germany.
