A Reconstruction Job
Cleveland Plain Dealer)

Cleveland Plain Dealer)
 Louisiana, it appears, won the Democratic state primary election in Louisiana the other day. The returns sounded the defeat of the political organ- zation built by the late Huey Long and inherited by his brother, Earl R. Long, which has controlled the political affairs of the Bayou State since 1928
 Less dynamic, less ruthless and no doubt more scrupulous than Huey. Governor Long evidently was unequal to the task or holding together and using to it's fullest ability the machine which the late Senator Long constructed with favortsm graft, intimidation and a liberal sprinkling of political genius
 However there must also be read into the record the growing disgust of the electorate of Louisiana with the Long style of government Had Huey lived the denouement most likely would not have come yet for he and his machine in it's prime demonstrated an ability to run roughshod over public feeling But there necessarily is time limit upon the regime of dictatorshp-politi and otherwise-and the time had come in Louisiana albeit hastened by weakening of the structure of the dictatorship itself The revelations of fraud in state offices, the embezzlement of Louisiana State University-these, of course, factors in the publics resolution to sweep out the whole crowd state officials and legislators alike.
 The Governor-to-be Sam H. Jones-snce the Democratic nomination is equivalent to election The state needs an overhauling of all divisions of the state government, and there also needs to be a legislative wash day to clean the statutes of the numerous acts adopted by Huey Longs legis- ative minions in contempt of public interest
 MT Jones also takes the job of preventing return of Longism, no mean task in itself. It is to be hoped, however, that he does not attempt this by perfecting political machine of his own Huey Longs rise came at the expense of a languid intellectual state government. The best protection against another such ascendancy is good govern ment.

need, of materials, the sinews of ruthless Communist aggression.
 It is quite time Americans began to think ot these things The trifng sums we send for civilian relief may much to the individuals who benefit in tragic times But they nothing in comparison with the enormous shipments of materials we making to Japan, even to Russia. The situa- ton has become bad that France is consider ing declaration of against Russia, merely to make Russia a bellgerent and therefore subject to the restrictions the United States imposes on bel lgerents
 When the history of this epoch of wars is fin- ally written the objective scholars of another decade will aside the noisy denunciations of aggression which have been read and heard in America, and also the empty gestures of the American Govern ment. N
 They will be compelled to say that Japan was enabled to wage by vast flow of supplies from America that Russia flew her bombers with Ameri- can gasoline and that the United States applied a rigid embargo only in war--withholding war materials from the Spanish people while Italy and Germany sent armies in.
 The next generation of Americans, when they read their history books, will get fine object lesson in hypocrisy.

EXPORTS TO RUSSIA

American exports to the Soviet Union increased tremendously in December ahd amounted to 25 percent of their entire bulk for the year 1889 Janu ary figures, when they available, are expected to show a still greater surge in our shipments to Russia, most of which go across the Pacific and escape any possible interference
 This great expansion of exports to Russia is particularly interesting for two First it began just when the Soviet Union began its war against Finland. Second, it increased particularly in two items-machnery for airplane manufacture and hightest aviation gasoline These were the two commodities Russia most needed in order to destroy her democratic neighbor. They also two of the items Russias Nazi partner most needs

NEW HOMES IN ALASKA

Last year Federal Housing Authority money built 58 homes in Alaska This does not appear to be a great many. but it should be remembered that they are homes which probably would not have been built at all without FILA financing
 The humber of FILA mortgages approved in 1889 represents 66 percent increase over the pre- vious year and the total volume, $314000, 58 per cent increase Behind these figures lies another encouraging fact The cost of building home in Alaska is coming down. The FILA average in 1888 was $57O0 Last year it $5424.
 Home improvements valued at $3l1 ,24892 have been made in Alaska since 1884 with FILA loans under separate title of the act
 Due to the Federal Housing Authority-which, remember, is one of those much maligned alphabeti- cal agencies" which the Republicans and reaction aries never even thought of before the New Deal the people of Alaska and the nation enabled to build their homes one of the foundations Of American democracy.

FRIDAY, MARCH 8

Until late today benefic saspects are active The morning hours are stimulating to persons who carry heavy responsibilities. Rulers and employers are well directed today The sway is fortunate for mer- chants and seems to encourage ex- pansion. It is an suspicious date for launching new enterprises.
 Heart and Home: The planetary government is inspiring for the intellectual activity of women and most promising to educators, writ CTS and artists. Girls should be en- couraged in their high ambitions Families should contribute gener ously to the aims of talented mem bers. It is a lucky day for seeking employment, also for making i'm provements in the home, especially for redecorating and refurbishing
 Business Affairs; Food will focus interest among exporters. Novel forms of preservation for fruits and vegetables will be introduced, and synthetic preparations will gain popularity. Housewives will buy generously of supplies that re- main at reasonable prices. Canada will be a good customer as the summer advances.
 National Issues: Economy meas ures will increase competition for federal funds among the various states withdrawal of relief in certain quarters will bring about new problems in all parts of the country. Increase of crime will be evident in the coming summer when robbery will reach greater propor- tions than in the past. The parole system will come in for bitter cri- ticism.
 International Affairs: In May there is an aspect under which peace negotiations should make pro- gress. If there is no chance for lasting cessation of hostilities. the probabilities are that there will be spread of hostilities with Italy actively aiding Germany. Because of Mussolini's interest in airplane and submarine building his active assistance of Hitler would mean great peril to British power in the Mediterranean. Again the seers re- mind the world that surprise is the strongest force in future conflict.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of unu- sual activity. For the young happy romance is indicated. Travel will divert many Americans.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be bright, exceedingly clever in anything requiring imag- ination. Many have talent as writ CTS or painters. They should be fortunate all through life auoai.s
