Reaction Confuses

1.-THE forces OF reaction always
work 10 confuse the public mind
by prOclaiming as anti-Gemo-
cratic those things which are
done in defense of democracy"
Smith declared.
THE same attempt 10 confuse
Is now apparent in the efforts
made by the spokesman Of gov
erment and OF private interests
to picture efforts 10 preserve
democratic rights. In this period
Of national defense, as intOler-
able attacks on the national
unity which Is needed in order
TO protect US against an anti
democratic invasion from with
out.
"One of the most profound
lessons Ot history Is that reac-
ton always presents itself as
working In the interests OF the
masses; otherwise its programs
would be so unpalatable a. 10 be
incapable of accomplishment.

FISHERMEN
 BRING TALES
 FROM NORTH
Corey Ford and Dan Ho|- land Tell of Taboo
 Lake in Arctic

After fishing in taboo Walker Lake at the head of the Kobuk River north of the Arctic Circle, writers Corey Ford and Dan Hol- land returned to Juneau today on a southbound Lodestar for what they both acclaimed as the climax of their fishing trip"
 For ten days the pair of fish ing fiends waited in Nome while weather grounded all planes, then with sunshine breaking through the clouds Nome buzzed like hornets nest. with planes flying in all di- rections." Past Kotzebue they flew with Sig Vein. and up the Kobuk River looking for a gravel bar on which to land. Came the bar and came the landing with Holland and Ford fishing a lake which is taboo to the Indians because they claim the fish are so large that they will swallow a kayak. Sincere ly the two writers claim the myth exists and that no Eskimos ever enter the lake for that reason.
 Famous Since Fish
 Holland, fishing editor of Field and Stream, and the noted Golfers writer, filled their creels with the famous shoe fish, although ad- mitting that their catches ran only eight to ten pounds while they have been reported to go as high as 70 pounds. The shee is a migra- tory fish like salmon which ruin up rivers to spawn, and it is thought that the Kobuk River is the only spawning ground in Am erica for the giant fish, called by the two flying fishermen, Arctic carp"
 Back in Nome Ford and Holland fished Pilgrim River with Nome banker Grant Jackson, catching Arctic trout, with Holland record ing data on the fish in an attempt to classify the trout. .
 Left Haida at Nome
 Several weeks ago the two men left Juneau on the Haida, visited defense bases at Kodiak and Dutch Harbor and left the Coast Guard cutter at Nome. They arrived by plane from Fairbanks this noon and will be in Juneau for about a week.
 Ford said that Alistair McBain, the other half of the famous Corey Ford -Alistair McBain writing team, will not come to Alaska this sum- mer as planned because of the recent death of his mother
 While on his vacation, Ford gath cred material for a series of AL aska defense articles soon to ap- pear in Golfers.
