DETERMINED TO BE THIRD
TERM CANDIDATE

The effort TO establish plausi-
bility has cloaked every step of
the "~bnild-up' program of the
New Deal Palace Guard which
brought Mr.. R~oosevelt's nomina-
ton for a Third Term at Chicago
in response 10 a manufactured
draft.
1t is known TO all men and wom-
en- who read newspapers during
the past year that the President
itended to be q candidate for a
Third Term.
As the Chicago Tribune states.
in describing the various steps be-
gun ten months ago, TO bring a
bout this New Deal nomination;
an. Roosevelt's predecessors
when their intentions were asked
had been quick TO say that they
would under no circumstances ac-
cept a Third Term. Only Mr..
Roosevelt refused to answer that
question. He not only refused
but he created the conviction in
the minds of all the people that he
would take the Third Term, that
he would use all the powers of his
office to get it, and that the finn
est determination of his life was
to break tradition and to stay in
the White House, becoming histor-
ically notable as the President who
did what no other President had
done"
So much then for the hypocrisy
of a so-called spontaneous uprising
of the people, demanding that the
President be a sacrificial offering
for the good of the country:
A condition, and not a theory.
COMMITS, the citizenship of Am
erica. That citizenship is called
upon to decide, once for all, the
most momentous question even
presented to the electorate during
the mote than $50 years of our
history.
A diff away from that basic
Americanism as we have known il
is evident in the fragrant and bold
challenge to a tradition which

cifie Coast states were just plug ging along In the last quarter of a century these states have seen de- yelopments they hardly dreamed Of for 90 years before.
 Alaska has been plugging along through the growing pain years just as has every frontier country; some times slipping backward a little. then pushing forward as new deyel- opments came along. In more recent years the Federal government has become more cognizant of the Terri tory and mindful of it's potentiali- ties. This has given marked impe- tous to pushing Alaska ahead; bringing 1t into the spotlight; ere ating desire in the hearts of Ameri- cans to make it their home. Private enterprise has pushed forward, stims ulated in large degree by the actiyi- ties of the government. Now nation al defense, in which the Territory plays an important role. is giving Alaska new life on another front
 Another 27 years and Alaska will be celebrating it's tooth American birthday. During those years, like the Pacific Coast states in the last quarter century, we will see it move rapidly forward, faster than 1t is possible for most of us to realize. Already, the Alaska of the old days is gone, unfortunately in many res poets. but nevertheless gone in the march of progress. Modern Alaska, just as l940 model as Fifth Avenue, is on the move toward great conl- onWealth ill the north.

THE ROAD TO ALASKA
Prom Tacoma News-Tribune

From Tacoma NeWsTribune
 Did you notice the dispatch last week which said that the United States had loaned Costa Rica $4.- 600,U0O tor construction of a high way? This was done through the Export-lmport bank of the govern ment, which furnished the funds to be used Tor that section oI the Pan American highway extending from San Jose, Costa Rica, to the Pana- ma border.
 Jesse Jones, federal loan admins trator, sad 1t would give about four years employment to citizens ot Costa Rica, who had been hard pressed economically because of the european wars restrictive effects on the coffee market.
 This furnishes perfect precedent for government financing of the highway to Alaska This highway by expert testimony, is Vitally need ed for the American defense of Alas ka. In time of war our only contact with our northw estern territory would be by sea or air. A highway from the state of Washington through British Columbia to Alas ka would be of immeasurable value to that territory and would aid this state and British columbia by at tracing great tourist travel from the east.
 Six former United States destroy CTS have been added to Canada S fleet. Why could not the Washing ton authorities have made an ex- change of the destroyers for Can adian conesnt and participation in the new highway? It looks as though this government were over looking bet in this connection. Our Alaskan highway and Alaskan de- fense are too important to be side tracked.

Political picture in Alaska was blighted the past week with the passing of Frank Barnes, who made such a sensational race of 1t in the recent election that even those who opposed him politically had nothing but words of praise for the man himself and the high plane on which he conducted a losing though close campaign. Alaska public lots a coming political figure in the un- timely death of the prominent Alas kan.
 Expressing the sentiments of thousands are these words from Senator Norman k. Doe" Walker of Ketchikan, who was his political opponent in the campaign for a Senate seat but a long personal friend, in a wire to the Periscope:
 ''I am grieyed and shocked over Frank. I could not see him on the boat going through but I, like many others, was praying that I would see him alive and we'll on the way bdShs NN"o OI hl5 pdSSlnS COul6S dS an even greater shock, We all deep ly mourn the death af a fine man. a real Alaskan, one of us. As I told you long ago, defeat by Frank could not be bitter because I knew he had the interests of the Territory at heart. His death is a tremendous loss."
 The Daily Alaska Empire in Ju- neau makes this comment:
 "In last months general election the people of Wrangell, though they voted heavily Democratic in all other contests, gave Frank S. Barnes almost a unanimous vote for Sena- tor. This mark of respect for the character and ability of their fel- low townsman is one echoed throughout Southeast Alaska and the Territory.
 Frank Barnes was real man, a credit to Alaska. He came up the hard way and, though he achieved outstanding business success, he never lost the common touch or a

ALASKA'S BIRTHDAY

Alaska as an American Territory is 73 years old today. It was on Qc- tober IS, 1867, that the Russian flag was lowered at Sitka and the United States Army raised the Stars and Stripes, concluding the purchase then Secretary of State William H. Seward had made the previous April for $7,200,O00.
 Alaska has pioneered along like all American frontier countries. It has produced phenomenal wealth, primarily in gold, fish and fur. Many times it's purchase price has been produced from it's natural resources. various sections have been started on the path of further development.
 The pace, the records reveal, has, mt been especially fast. There are those who impatiently declare Alas ka isn't making the progress it should; that it can never attain to anything much greater than it now is, and cynically label it the "best next year country on earth" But the fact is that Alaska is moving toward greater development by leaps and bounds as compared with the push of American frontiers westward. Little more than 25 years ago, the west coast of the United States - Washington, Oregon and California-was about where Alaska is today on the road to development, with the exception of aerial trans portation and radio communication which has given the Territory a vast advantage the west coast did not enjoy at that time. It had been more than SO years since gold was discovered in California, but the Pa

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18-When a law puts more than a million people on the spot, its worth digging into.

 Border Cases Must Wait
 That includes so many people that the Civil Service Commission, which is charged with administering the act and prosecuting it in so far as civil service employees are concerned Something like 750.000) cant be- gin to enumerate the borderline cases. These won't be classified probably until the courts (on appeal from hearings) have had a whaek at interpreting the law.
 There are borderline violations, too, which hardly can be imagined until court precedence is estab- lished, but it won't take that to prove that the Hatch act has teeth. It has fangs in rows, and they are so sharp that any federal worker who gets over the years without get ting his hide ripped off on them will have to pick his political way with

FRANK BARNES

In the tragic death last Friday or Frank 5. Barnes, following wounds he had suffered the previous Sunday when attacked by a grizzly bear, AL aska lost one of it's outstanding men, HrangeI one of its No. 1 citizens. To the thousands who knew hlm through his long residence in the north his death came as a terrific shock as those things do. The shock Wlu heal with time, but the place that Frank Barnes held Ill the as- teem of his fellow man and in the activities of his community will re- main a void, ever a reminder of the great loss we have suffered.

 President of the Wrangell Pack ing Company, he had for years been recognized among the leaders ill the I.shing industry. Following in the footsteps of his father, he entered tue fishing industry in Alaska as a youngster and had followed it sue cessIuIly through dis business life.

How typI- cal of the man that fate should strike while he was extending to some of those friends the natural hospitality which was a part of him.
