Republican
Women Hear
Gearhart

Prediction Of 9 Republican vic
tory In congressional elections next
year was made by Representative
Bertrand w. Gearhart Of California
yesterday before the League of Re-
publican Women at club headquar-
ters. 1902 Rhode Island avenue.
Charging the Democratic party
With having come into power In
1892 through misleading the Ameri-
can people" with the promise to
get the country out of the red" 1t
q time of world depression, Rep
resentative Gearhart declared that
the Democrats had abused their
power from the FIRST moment"
Quoting the famous words of
President Lincoln, "Yau can fool
some Of the people some of the
time, and some of the people all of
the time, but you can't fool all of the
people all of the time" the speaker
said: THAT slogan is the answer
to the coming election. Mr.. Roose-
welt has fooled the people too many
times, and he can't fool them now.
The people have their eyes open"
A Republican victory at the polls
next year will give the Republicans
control Of the House, Mr.. Gearhart
asserted.
That will mean that the Repub-
licans will have the power to ap-
point committees to look into the
malmanagement of the Democratic
party" he declared.
A Republican victory next year
would be followed two years later
by a Republican President and by
Republicans all along the line" he
added optimistically.
Representative Gearhart spoke in
stead of Representative Jeannette
Rankin Of Montana. originally
scheduled to speak but unable to
attend. Announcement Of a course
in Red Cross first aid to be held
each week at the clubhouse was
made by Mrs. Edward E. Gam, the
president. The first aid course
would be preliminary to a course to
be held in protection work, Mrs.
Gam explained, and is part of the
clubs program in national defense
work. Mrs. Mabel Anderson, a
member Of the league and a regis
terel first-aid instructor. has offered

ALUMINIUM DRIVE I5 TO
 START WED.
Boy Scouts Will Collect Needed Defense
 Metal Friday

Juneau, so far as is known today, will be the only city in Alaska to join in the national aluminium drive being staged throughout the States.
 To be sponsored by the Rotary Club, under the direction of pr. w. M. Whitehead, and with the assist ance of the Juneau Boy Scouts, the drive will start tomorrow.
 Because of the shortage of alum mum for airplane construction in the present national emergency, cities all over the country are this week being canvassed for old cooking utensils, motor blocks and scrap aluminium of all sorts, even to tax tokens of states where sales taxes cumulations of aluminium given in the drive will be placed in a large wire corral at the intersection of Front and ward Streets. Dr. Whitehead said, and he appealed to all residents of the city to donate to the drive any old aluminium they may have around their homes or place of business
 Cooperating with the drive, the city was today to construct the "Ju- neau Aluminium Pot" on Front Street, where the donations of the defense metal may be deposited. On Thursday afternoon, Boy Scouts will cover every home, apartment and business house in the city, leaving pamphlets to explain the drive and notifying residents that they will will return the following day to pick up contributions.
 On Friday, the Scouts will again cover the city, with bags in which to carry the aluminium to the Front Street pot" and all motorists, truck and taxi drivers are urged to pick up any boys with full sacks of the metal and give them lifts to the col lection base.
 At the end of the drive, the Alaska Steamship Company will furnish free transportation of the aluminium to Seattle, it was announced. No one connected with the drive in any way will be paid for his work, it was brought out.

U. 5. SHOULD TAKE CANADA, SAYS CLARK
Senator Suggests that Am- erica Seize All of
 North America

WASHIUGTON, July 29-Senator Bennett Champ Clark of Missol- ri, speaking as an individual rather than as a Senator, today suggested that the United States take over control of all Latin America and Canada, but his col- leagues immediately branded the idea as fantastic.
 Senator Joseph OMahoney uc Wyoming said he is sure no one in the western part of his coun- try would support the suggestions, and called the proposal both fan tastic and imperialistic.
 As to Canada, Clark said: "The Canadians are just as willing as the Latin Americas to take our money and use it, not to promote hemispherical solidarity, but their own selfish ends."
