This week's news reg for initiating activities in the tablishment of pulp and industry in vicin I encouraging The the e blishment Many thousands of eéngineering studies It would be in mind the words of connection with the other things: Paper making plants of the size and type we all hope to get in Alaska entail huge expenditures and necessarily an orderly and detailed study of the fac- tors involved must be made before a beginning of construction work can be looked for. These studies require much time and our projects are still in this investigation stage. Thus, if the decision of the Cameron-Chandler intersts as to plant construction seems tardy in| being made known, there is no cause for dis-| couragement nor reason for impatience on the part of local people. A minimum investment of some $10,000,000 is required for the projected plant and equipment here. Those who are furn- ishing the funds must first of all be satisfied there is a good chance for it ‘to earn interest and for its protection. The only method of obtaining that knowledge is through studies made by competent engineers. As Heintzleman pointed out in yThe Empire pre- minary v investigations have ' dlready = been eon- ducted and their results were g0 satisfactory that money was readily forthcoming for the necessary detailed surveys.

Juneau has every reason to be content with the progress that has been made and optimistic as to the outcome of the inves- tigations that will be made during the remainder of the year. MAKING NEW RECORDS. It seems as if the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining - Company is always trying to establis new records for itself. For several years pas! annually set up new high-total production only to smash them the succeeding year. teen twenty-seven was its finest 12-month period from a standpoint of operations. It mined, tram- med and milled more ore tham, in any previous year and its gold recovery was also highest on record. Now it is apparently geing out after new, yield marks. The statements of President F. W. Bradley and Superintendent L. H. Metzgar which announced a new profit record for Jan- umary and that this was in a fair way to be sur- passed by operations during the current month are the finest kind of news for Juneau. The company has gone through many lean years, kept its proper: in the best of condition and given employment to hundreds of employees only through the efficiency of its forces backed by the « eourage of the management. Local people will rejoice at the improvement evidenced by late reports. Nor will their p‘fl.‘;ll‘l‘ be entirely unselfish. The employment furnished by the ‘Company constitutes the backbome of the town's rosperity and anything which betters the com- "pany is equally beneficial to Junmeau, Nine MENT BY PARTY. \‘ Speaker Longworth has behind him the weight 2 "g. experience and the lessons ot‘ the history of - “Your own country he argles for party responsibliity in government. Amd recent politi- cal developments do not detragt from the force of his argument. The theory of party respon- sibility is sound and it has been proven practical through all the stages of growth from the very “fnitiation of this republic down to today. The character of our political structure reguires that ppongibility be centered upon some organization r effectiveness of governmental functioning and it becomes dangeroutly weakened where parties ‘disintegrate to a degree that makes this im- possible.

(New York Worid.) Goodnow, President of the University, retires before the end of he has announced he will do, Am- erican education will lose a valuable man. And it will lose a rather unusual man. In an age when the university president tends more and more to become a hand-shaker, a good fellow, a leg-puller of Legislatures and a go-getter of money, this tall, gaunt man, with his reserve of manner vet curiously brutal directness of state- ment, has scemed the very anthithesis of the mod- jern type. And his thinking has been as far from the norm personality. “Demc y.” he said on be all right in government. |in a university At least it | university like Hopkins.

Laski, in The New Republic, dis- agrees with two other recent observers of the American scene. Hilaire Belloc reported some |time ago that this country is .a land of joy. Edouard Herriot found us the happiest people on earth. Mr. Laski, on the othé¥ hand, believes that America is complacent hut not happy. Our riches do not satisfy us. RElse why should we be yearning so eagerly for art, poetry and philos- ophy? The generosity of ouf*wealthy men Iis, in part, “a pathetic striving to attain a self- respect that mere possessions do not confer.” This is truly being dammed if we do and damned if we don’t. If we .meglected art and learning, we should be crass materialists. If we endow them, we are only pathetically seeking escape from materialism. But in that case how me bhe certain of the merchant princes of n Renai ice and the wealthy burghers Flensh and Dutch art?

Today things may be done because we like them or because we don't. The ancient Greeks thronged to games because they were full of the joy of life. We flock to the stadiums because we are so sad. If a thrifty, Puritanical generation admired Mr. Coolidge, it would be be- quse he was like itself. When a free-spending, v-going generation admires Mr. Coolidge it is because he pleases ‘“vicariously.” Everything is today explainable, either because or because not. voll -2? | bread made from it you give the | medicine closet the once over to make sure you have plenty of paregoric on hand.

He stood, uncovered, before the Liberty Bell. He said: “Liberty in all parts of the world echoes what was done here. As we approached this great hall He loved liberty. ~You have achieved here the ambition of my own land. The people are housed and in possession of their own. homes, and the home is the center of civilization. We have come to this historic city bringing a mes- sage of peace and good will, love and affection. It is not possible to make tighter the bonds of affection between this country and mine. We are one family.” In America we like to realize thé truth of this statement. America and Ireland have been always in affinity. Both lands love liberty with an almost fanatical devotion. This people love and revere the courage, the heroism, the splendor of the sacrifice which constitute Ireland’s noblest tradition. The nation has striven to make Presi- dent Cosgrave welcome. We believe he has been made to realize the verity and warmth of that welcome. We hold, with him, that Irish and Americans constitute one family. The London Bystander a new test for American whiskey.
