REGULATION OF ADVERTISING

There is q good deal Of public dis
cussion concerning control by the
Government over advertising The
basic purpose of this activity is
sood. inasmuch as it is an effort to
prevent false and fraudulent state
ments and representations about
goods on sale. A lot of crooks have
been caught and put out Of business
through these efforts of our Govern
ment.
Undoubtedly there is danger of
slowing down the volume of 1egiti-
mate advertising if the Government
agencies OvsIstep their boundaries.
But the indications in Washington
are that the official rule over adver-
tising is being very carefully hand
led Federal administrators say they
are trying 20 increase the volume of
legitimate advertising by increasing
public confidence-and not destroy
ing it. We are reliably informed that
false statements" and miseTepre-
are being suppressed by
The Federal Government.

The warm, clear weather thai
has prevailed for the past sew.
eral days is giving the farmers
a chance to catch up with thei:
work which has been far behind
during the season. The thermo-
meter reached "a Saturday, the
highest since July.
The early frost of the 10, did
more damage, especially to corn
than was at first indicated.

error that I wish corrected. In
reference to the death of Mrs.
Baker, it should have been Mrs.
Vincent instead of Mrs. Clarence
Baker.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Parker are
rejoicing over the arrival of a
brand new daughter last Satur-
day.

 SHIPS MAY
 BE BANNED
Bill in Congress Against Foreign Bottoms Might
 Include Alaska

A bill introduced in Congress early last month by Representative OLeary of New York, a bill spon- sored by the American Merchant Marine Institute, would forbid for eign vessels from carrying passen- gers to Alaska.
 At its weekly noon luncheon to- day, the Juneau Chamber of Com merce dispatched vigorous pro- test to Washington against this legislation, which, if passed, it is feared, would sever Alaska con- nection with the States through the two Canadian steamer lines nov in operation
 AS worded in Section Two of the bill it provides mo foreign vessel shall transport passengers between ports or places within the United States or it's possessions now, ol hereafter embraced within the coastwise law, either directly, oi by way of a nearby foreign port or for any part of such transpor- tation."
 Delegate Anthony J. Dimond wired Secretary of Alaska E. L Bartlett regarding this Legislation March 6, declaring that the same bill, essentially, had been intro duced two years ago in Congres: and he had opposed it at tha time
 Dimond said he believed therf was little chance of the curren bill passing or applying to Alaska but should such be the case, ht will again oppose it.
 The local Chamber of Commerce based it's criticism of Alaska's in clusion in such a bill on the as sumption the measures enactmen' would have a disastrous effect or tourist traffic" and that steame. traffic to Alaska, even now, is no adequate.
 It is believed, however, that Al aska's inclusion in the bill is no and that the measure directed principally at palatial line cruises Of foreign vessels from New York through the Canal with man. stopoverS on American soil.

Roosevelt
 Discusses
 Peace pa(f
Condemns Force Among Nations, Wanfon Dis-
 regard for Law

WASHINGTON, March 14.-Pres- ident Roosevelt seized on the Soviet Finnish peace treaty to con- demn again the use of force among nations.
 In commenting on the Moscow Helsinki pact the President reiter- ated the stand he took at the out set of hostilities in the Baltic last December
 Said the President: "It is tragic to see the policy of force spread ing and to realize that wanton dis regard for law still is on the march" The President paid tribute to the Finnish people by declaring that they had won, through their valor and strong resistance, what he termed, the moral right to live in everlasting peace and indepen- dence He added that the ending of the war in the Baltic did not yet clarify the rights of small na- tions to the maintenance of their integrity against attack by a super ior force.
