In his "non-political" talk recently
Roosevelt in an effort to explain away
the New Deals effort to seize perma.

The fatal flaw in this statement !.
that free elections are not surviving

are spending billions of the peoples

MORE OF IT

Here's more information about the
New Deal attempting to persuade the
farmer to accept money from the Fed
eral government, just so it will feel
benevolent toward Roosevelt when the
election rolls around.
A news article from the Farm Sc
curity Administrator reveals the fol-
lowing Like planting ones crops in
season, there is good reason why farm
families expecting to call upon the
Farm Security Administration for
operating credit should do so at this
time of the year." X. R. Wagaman,
Farm Security Administration Super
visor, Grantsville, advises farmers to
"think ahead about their credit needs,
instead of waiting until their needs are
urgent"
According to the article the farmer
applying now for an advance need not
get it now Tor before election), He
just gets it approved now and the adj
mlnistration promises to have it for
him several months from now.
1t all looks very nice. The farmer
gets a promise of $500, $4,000, $500
or more when he needs it, but the as
surance is given-before election.
The New Deal is trying desperately
to buy every PERSONS vote in Novem-
Der. In midwest state farmers re-
ceiving checks from the government
also received little pink slip in one of
their letters stating, aren't you
grateful to Mr.. Roosevelt?" Crate
full for what? Grateful for a present
of $40 when it takes $4,000 in hidden
taxes from you!
The election will show that this
country cannot be bought.

CIT SHALL NOT
HAPPEN HERE"

National Newspaper Week, 1910.
may well be a period for gratitude
among Americans-readers and pub
fishers alike-that their press still
belong to the Nation. Yet while they
congratulate each other, they will also
keep alert to those dangers that fore
warned Of the mental black-out now
darkening the European Continent.
The manacles that tyranny would
impose on free speech are not always
visible. They are not always described
in the catalogues of dictators' de.
vices. Thomas Mann, in an interview
in Editor and Publisher, points out
that fear may strike at freedom of
the press long before any actual gov
eminent control is exercised.
The fall of the House of Ullstein in
Germany illustrates this Long before
the Nazis were in a position to dictate
policies to this great publishing house
or to other influential newspaper pub
fishers, fear operated to prevent a
coalition of them against the political
terrorism with which the Hitherto
machine was intrenching itself. The
publishers, who could not be sure that
many of their subscribers were not
already Nazi, did not dare to embark
en- an editorial campaign of exposure
and denunciation because of possible
reprisal. The leader of the Ullstein
firm attempted, through a conference,
to rally these publishers, but failed

GIories of Democratic System

One of the glories Of the democratic
system and the free enterprise system
of economy is that it produces thous-
ands and thousands of men who can
occupy any position of Importance
that they may be called upon to fill in
this free land of ours. And whenever
the day comes that the American way
has failed to develop many men who
can do the job, then we have taken
our first step down the road to total
itarianism.-From one of Wilkes
speeches.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1940-10-17

when a piece of terroristic news was
brought to the meeting. Fear manacled
hands that were still free to strike for
liberty. Now those hands are manacled
to a ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS propa-
ganda machine.
Americans do not yet know this
fear. Whether they are readers or pub
fishers, their duty to themselves and
to each other is to prevent fear from
taking hold of their thinking, to re-
main alert to the necessity of free
discussion. That is why they are more
and more frequently saying, not at
can't happen here" but at shall not"

ALASkA SPORTSMAN
 FOR MARCH ISSUED

For Jay Ellis Ransom, young man attending the University of Washington, the Chance of Life time" came when he got job on an Alaska cannery tender. That was in 1886, and this job meant so much to him that he left the Uni- versity, even said boodbye to his fi- ancee, and came to Alaska in search of the opportunities that the North land seemed to hold for him.
 Even though he did not find, at first, what he was looking for, he was convinced that he was to make Alaska his home.
 The story begins in the March issue of The Alaska Sportsman magazine. It is entitled The Chance of a Lifetime" and is the first of a series of three chapters of his complete story, T found Home in Alaska"
 There are many tales of mans empty handed encounter with a bear, and they are usually true, end- ing with the result, disaster-for the human being. Rade Peckovich, of Funter Bay. on Admiralty Island had one such experience, although he is one of the lucky few who remained alive. The story of his hand to-hand battle, and how he happens to be alive today, is told by Conrad Puhr, in the article, He Grappled With a Bear also in the March issue.
 Other stories in this number of the Sportsman are: Arctic Sea Battle" by the well known Alaskan writer, D. L. Sancrant; Mink Ran- cher" which tells of raising mink in captivity on the Kenai Peninsula, written by Lois Hudson Allen; and Fish Trap Patrol,' by Stan LlLai.

WASHINGTON, Fer. 5.-(Special e)-Secretary of State Cordell Hull today discussed pro- gress on the proposed highway from Alaska to the United States, with Chairman Warren Magnuson, Gov. Ernest Gruening and Thomas Riggs of the Alaska International High way.
 There will be several joint meet ings of the American and Canadian Commissions during the year.
 The Canadian Commission is em- powered only to report on possible routes in Canada. So far they have fairly complete detail over one route and will make further investigation over alternate routes. For this pur- pose there will be available funds from both British Columbia and Canadian Federal governments.
