Small loan laws have been pass
ed in A states and the District of
Columbia, with maximum rates
ranging from ga to 81 per cent
per month on the unpaid balance,
This indicates that the maxi
mum interest rates vary from 80
to ~ per cent per year, which
seems rather high, but is actually
a nominal charge when one views
the costs incurred by a company
In extending numerous small
loans.
Whereas a corporation or firm
might make one loan in the a
mount of 100000, a small loan
company with a ceiling of $500
per loan would have to extend that
same amount to 1000 customers,
thus it can readily be seen that
bookkeeping costs alone becomes
a very large expense item.
Loan Sharks
The people of ill-repute in the
small loan field are the loan
sharks; who. having no legal
status. prey with the ability OF
seasoned parasites on victims not
fortunate enough to get credit
elsewhere, They often force the
victim to pay many times the a
mount borrowed before releasing
him from the loan.
Although estimates vary. ii is

ficult TO fleece customers in the

form Small Loan Laws, while in
the District OF Columbia and
states that have no protective
laws or where the laws are not en-
forced, they enjoy lucrative
business.
The average range of interest
rates for loan sharks is 2I0 TO
800 per cent per year, although
cases have been known where the
rates were over 1900 per cent a
year
Since IL is more or less accepted

II should be remembered wher

people concerned are most reluc-

Girl Scout News

The Girl Scout Committee met
last week and it was decided to
hold food sale to raise funds for
the annual encampment at Dex-
ter camp, dates for which were
set at June 18th through the 10Th.
Some people may be a little
confused, the chairman stated, on
the Girl Scout food sale which
was held during the winter. This
was a Senior intermediate project
and was planned and held by this
group of girls in order to raise
money for their own troop.
The chairman, Mrs. Pete Read
er, added that these girls also
made and sold wreaths at Christ
mas time, ordering the green's
from White Mountain and max
ing up the wreaths during their
meetings.
eve think this enterprising
troop of girls should be COM
mended for their willingness and
their ability to work as a group.
They are planning on an extra
week at camp with these funds
and have also voted to use a por-
ton of it to pay for some girl who
would otherwise not be able to go
to camp"
Mrs. Jack Jenkins, new chair
man of the Girl Scout Committee,
has begun plans for the Scout
program in the fall. "She has
many interesting ideas and we
are confident she will do an ex-
cellent job }" stated Mrs. Reader,
retiring chairman.

HOW TO RUN AS "A DELEGATE

Section of the Act concern
ing election of delegates for the
Alaskan Constitutional Conven-
tion specifies: candidates for
the office Of delegate shall be
nominated by petition filed in
person or by mail with the clerk
Of the court of the judicial divi-
sion in which the candidate is a
resident on or before May To-.
1855. Each petition shall be ac-
companied by a fee of ten dollars
except that the fee for candidates
for election from the Territory
at large shall be forty dollars.
Each nominating petition shall be
signed by legally qualified voters
of Alaska residing within the ell
ection district in and for which
the delegates nominated are to
be elected equal in number to at
least five per cent Of the number
of votes cast in the election dis
trict in the General Election of
1854, provided that no nominal
ing petition need contain more
than two hundred signatures nor
may it contain less than fifty sig
natures, in any election district.
To ascertain the exact number
of signatures needed, contact the
clerk of the court in your judi
cial division. Certainly it may be
wise to obtain more signatures
than the minimum in case Of any
possible disqualification of a

WARMING TO VOTERS

Be sure to note that the voter
is not to sign any more petitions
than there are candidates for
whom he is eligible to vote. Thus
the voter Of Nome can sign only
one petition for candidate from
this district; he can only sign
seven petitions for territorial
delegates at large. This is ex-
tremely important to the candi-
dates in the event his petition
may be challenged and possibly
thrown out upon a check by the
Territorial canvassing board.

GOOD THOUGHTS TO REMEMBER

From the Bible:
"The preparations of the heart in and the an
swer of the tongue, is from the Lord.
''All the ways Of clean in his own eyes;
but the Lord wegheth the spirits.
Commit thy works unto the Lord and thy thoughts
shall be estabshed."-Prov. 1918.
Mary Baker Eddy says;
God has built higher platform of human rights,
and He has built it IN diyner claims. These
Crampins claims made through code creed,
systems but in demonstration of ON earth peace,
goodwill toward men, Human codes scho-
lasc theology, material medicine and hygiene, fetter
faith and spiritual understanding. Divine Science rends
Asunder these fetters and mans brhrght of sole ae
glance to his Maker asserts itself."-S&H, p. 226
