A survey “nearly ten year showed that more than $15,000,000 had been paid in taxes in Alaska and from the various | States on profits from investment in and trade with the Territory in a single year the various States! 1 - This does not take into account the benefici B results of trade amounting to 000,000,000 or more that has occurred between the States and $ this Territory since its purchase.

New York newspapers, or rather Washington | correspondents representing them, report that | President Coolidge is to be invited, if the invi- tation has not alveady - been extended, to join 4 a prominent law firm in New York City when he leaves the White House. Some of the Wash- ington reporters heard that he had accepted the offer but this is without doubt an exaggeration. Mr. Coolidge is known to have decided mnot to determine his future activities until his retire- X ment more closely approaches than at present, " but those most likely to know how ¥he feels H about the matter feel that whatever he does $ will not be along commercial lines in his mind A short vacation is most likel) now.

Several days ago dur- B ing a tariff debate, somehow the subject of 1 enforcement was brought into the discussion Senator Borah asked Senator Copeland, Democrat | 3 of New York, how Governor Smith stood on ¥ the Eighteenth Amendment. The New York Senator replied that Governor Smith had not eriticised the amendment but had said that the Volstead Act was susceptible of modifica- . tion, imsisting, however, on its .strict enforce- " ment as long as it was kept on the statute| 3 books. Then, asked Senator Borah, “Dges he favor leaving it to the States to determine the alcoholic content?” Senator Copeland replied: The Governor favors having Con- gress determine what is the alcoholic content which is the limit of non-in- toxication, and that the State, by an affirmative vote of its citizens, shall determine whether it prefers its liquor in an alcoholic content above one-half of one per cent., but mot in excess of that which is determined by Congress. Senator Copeland denied that Gov. Smith ' would have each State fix the alcoholic content. *hen 1 have misread his message,” replied the ldaho Senator. Senator Copeland then said * further: § Of course, the Senator has misread 3 his message and many other Senators, 3 citizens and some Democrats. If he is elected, and I believe he will be, there will never be a President who more strictly and unfailingly insisted on law enforcement. Senator Copeland was giving his own inter- pretation of Gov. Smith’s position as revealed lq N' various public utterances, including his messagé to the New York Legislature. , are few, if ‘any, who will gainsay the sin- 'of Gov, Smith on law enforcement.
