 This week end the lawmakers are making their biennial inspection of the Pioneers Home at Sitka. That is duly appointed committees are. and most of the boys and the help are going along. It's a bracing ride and pleasant week end by steamer from Juneau to Sitka and return Two years ago. the Legislators in speeted the Pioneers Home and bought Goddard Hot Springs. This year somebody may sell em the whole Baranof Island.
 Goddard Hot Springs buy is ris- ing to goad some of the lawmakers in a tender spot Supt Eiler Hansen of the Home already has recon mended il be abandoned after find ing out it costs 9 cents a day to feed a pioneer at the Sitka Home and 51 cents day at Goddard Gov ernor in his message suggested it might be well to consider an annex to the Home in Sitka. If this is done and Goddard abandoned. future law makers can. as one 1889 Legislator put it, fix the springs up as a resort for tired Senators and Representa- tives to go to for recuperation after the 60-day session.
 Possibilities of the future: Tired lawmakers enjoying the baths at Goddard. Mr Ickes tending the tubs.

Hanging over the 18th biennial Legislature up in Juneau like big, bad wolf fantasy is the shadow of Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes. Around vocal Mr Ickes, it appears. will beat the fires of the entire legislative session.
 Kicking the battle out onto the floor of the legislative chambers a little more abruptly than generally anticipated was the Senate memor- ial by Senator Don Carlos Brownell of Seward last week urging the President to accept Iekes' resigna- tion pronto. Following up, both Houses this week passed memorials to that effect The House, a little blunt, urged that the Secretary be replaced by one ''who will not de- velop a dictator complex. Suaye Senate worded theirs to read a sue lcessor "who will have sympathy and understanding in viewpoint toward Alaska, it's problems and it's fu- ture." Both mean the same thing = the gun out for Mr. Ickes.
 Even if the President should ac. cept the Legislatures request inn mediately. the Secretary's memory would still be there to haunt the Lawmakers. For example, Senator Brownell can never enjoy a good nights sleep so long as Col. Otto r | n, Fu cray of the Alaska Railroad, is on the job The Senator, as you may recall is also the Mayor of Seward, and has been for some time. Seward has 1 been the terminus of the Alaska Railroad. Comes Col. Ohlson with 2 plan to change the water terminus l over to Portage Bay, a proposal des tined to go into effect, leaving 1 Seward with some nice long dock and no boats coming into them Shall wonder the Mayor-senatol keeps waking up with bad dreams
 And in addition to MT. Ickes' Col l Ohlson there is Mr. Ickes' Gov Gruening Dr. Gruening is general! accepted in Alaska as an Ickes ap | pointment, and on his shoulder falls all the weight of Ickes error of commission or omission. Ablt Gov. Gruening's shoulders are broad and he is personally well liked b! those who know him. Given a few years to get better acquainted witt Alaskans and probably he woull prove a popular Chief Executive fol the Territory. But like the marked Cain, Dr. Gruening bears the mark that of MT. Ickes, under whom hC served as Director of Territories and Island Possessions before being | lappointed Governor.

surrounding the great industrial
city would cease.
There were no details Of the
bombardment. The city on the
River Neva. however. stands as a
perfect artillery target, with vast
industrial plants ringing its hub
and huge factories on the eastern
and western outskirts in place as
legitimate spoils of war.
