straight across the boards test of a
soldier candidate. 1t is between
Congressman Richard Kleberg, part
owner of the ,250,00O?acre King
Ranch, and Capt. John E. Lyle a
veteran of North Africa and Italy.
The test is especially clear-cut
because Congressman Kleberg did
not serve in the last war and his
son received deferment as a far
mer in this war, though he was
trained in a military school.
Also, Kleberg has never refuted
affidavits asserting that two IL
year-old page boys, Robert jackson
and Filemon Saldivar, kicked back
about $40 monthly each to Kle-
berg's office from their Government
salaries, because he had secured
them the jobs. More recently, it
has been shown that a 17-year-old
boy, Randalett Lawrence, employed
as Capitol usher, kicked back $50
a month to Kleberg.
NOTE Congressman Klebergs
family migrated from Germany
There is an educational foundation
in Prussia which was established by
his ancestors to educate members
of the Kleberg family.

DEMOCRATIC SENATE?

Political prognosticators at Chi
cago have been checking over
Roosevelt's chances of having a
Democratic Congress if he is elect
ed next November. While no one
is predicting yet about the House,
Democratic leaders feel certain Of
a favorable Senate.
For instance, the White House
has received reports that, in Con-
necticut, Republican Senator Dana
her will be replaced by hard
hitting new Democrat, Brien Nc
Mahon, former U. S. Assistant At
torney general and the man who
waded into bloody Harlan County,
Kentucky, to clean up the murder
tactics used against coal miners.
Mcmahon also is the one man since
Civil War days who secured a con-
viction for slavery. He jailed an
Arkansas sheriff who held twelve
negroes as slaves.
In North Dakota also, Democrats
are counting on defeating Senator
Gerald Nye with popular Governor
John Moses, three times Governor
of the State. r
The White House will push the
Connecticut and North Dakota
campaigns vigorously. ,sFE

A Toast to Friend of Alaska
ALASKA Weekly

ALASKA Weekly ~. II.
Most of the things that appear to editorial writer's
worthy of discussion of controversial nature.
1t becbmes hard to write of things persons where
no argument could possibly be involved.
However, we had occasion this morning to make a
call person, whom for the past fourteen years,
have turned for information or helpfulness
within his ability extend without receiving unfang
courtesy the desired information and access to a
wealth of information regarding Alaska Alaska people
and business, and the relationship between Alaska
problems and the problems of Aaskas closest partner
Seattle.
Consequently, we came back to the office mbued
with the idea of proposing little toast to Foster
L. McGovern Assistant Manager Of the Seattle Cham
Der of Commerce and manager of that organization
Alaska department.
Terry as he is known to most Seattle business
and to host of Alaskans scattered from one end
of the Territory to the other to the Seattle
Chamber quite awhile ago-n 1927 to be exact. Five
years later, when Charlie Garfield left the Alaska
Department of the Chamber Terry became secretary
of that vital department.
In the intervening twelve years he has endeared
himself to Alaskans everywhere, both on his many
trips the Territory and by his hepuness to visiting
Alaskans The Alaska Committee of the Seattle
Chamber has come to be, under his guidance, a
veritable Territorial Chamber of Commerce, whose
function has been to ascertain the wishes of Alaska
through the various chambers of the Territory and
then try to translate those wishes into action.
In 1888 he made Assistant Manager OF the
Seattle Chamber but his added responsibilities have
only served to make him valuable to his Alaska
friends and have not detracted in the slightest from
his willingness give unstintingly of his time and
effort to any project which Alaska favors.
Here's to Terry" McGovern, and to the trustees
of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce who have seen
fit to keep so capable person the job to do his
stuff for Alaska and Alaskans. ~ ~ 9-s.

AMAZING IGNORANCE?

The National Opinion Research Center of the
University of Denver has released two studies which
reveal ignorance of the Bill of Rights and the free
press guarantee. The results of the studies show
simply what similar studies have shown for some time
that the general public is ignorant of its rights.
Some label such ignorance amazing" However,
it seems to be usual these days.
The Research Center reports that % percent of
the people interviewed gave responses indicating
reasonably accurate idea of the content of the first
10 amendments to the Constitution of the United
States.
In other words, than rs percent of the people
apparently do not know what the Bill of Rights is and
what it contains.
Thirty-nine percent had heard of it but couldn't

identify it. Fifteen percent gave confused, unsat-
sfactory or entirely incorrect identfications,
In other study the Research Center found that
30 percent of the people did not think newspapers
should be allowed to criticize form of government
in time of peace. The Sc percent who thought news
papers should be permitted this criticism in peaceme
is large majority. Nevertheless, 80 percent of our
