THE TAKU RIVER MINE DEAL. The announcement that the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company will take over and develop the Taku River mining property recently discovered by M. V. Manville, representing himself and others, including 1. Goldstein, Charles Goldstein, Dr. Robert Simpson, A. Hendri on, Minard Mill, Mrs. I. Gold- stein and Miss Marie Goldstein, is a marked addition to the indications that greater progress is in store for this section of Alaska. Previous reports show that a great body of rich ore had been uncovered by these local people who have sold a controlling interest in their properties to Juneau's big mining company. The deal is all the more interesting because it follows a similar deal consummated sometime ago crew has shocked the world.. This time it was an English vessel and crew that went down. Heat waves along the Atlantic Coast, cloud bursts in Texas and tornadoes in the Dakotas have not detracted all from our fondness for Pacific Coast climate. at Prompt Action on the Young Plan. (New York World.) The Foreign Ministers of Germany and France, Dr. Stresemann and M. Briand, are in accord on the need of the prompt acceptance of the Young plan by all the governments concerned. There are many important matters pending, such as the evacuation of the Rheinland and the ratification of the French war debts, which cannot be effectively dealt with until the Young plan is adopted as a basis for their settlment. In order to avoid com- plications it is especially desirable that France should ratify her debt agreement with the United States before August 1, when her post-armstice debt of $400,000,000 becomes due. It is equally desirable that the Young plan should be ready to go into operation on September 1, when the fifth year of the Dawes plan expires. To provide for these contingencies, the ratifica- tion of the Young plan should become an accom- plished fact within the next six or seven weeks There is’ some opposition to the plan in both France and Germany, and it comes from the extremists| among both the Nationalists and the Radicals. These groups are not accustomed to working together, but if ratification should be unduly delayed they might effect a combination which would prove trouble- some. There is nothing to be gained and much might be lost by tardy action. Russia and China. | (Manchester Guardian.)

It is 'probable that a more capable mining organi- zation does not exist than that of which F. W. Bradley is at the head, and it is enterprising and vigorous. It not only operates properties in Alaska and Yukon but it is actively and successfully en- gaged in several States and Canadian probably accounts for the fact that China has ven- tured on actions which in normal times would have meant if not war at least real danger of it.

Russia is active in trying to advance the communistic theories of the Soviet and China is determined to keep the Pro-|hirds and animals, paganda out. It would not be surprising if there would be scme real fighting betore the end of the present crisis. Of course Japan's attitude in the premises pre- sents interesting potentialities. Japan is vitally con- cerned with everything that pertains to Far East development. She is particularly interested in the maintenance of peace, but even more in settlements that might count for safety in the final adjust- ments. Japan and China are more likely to act with reference to the more or liess remote future than Russia, for their statesmen are far-seeing and building for coming generations. They certainly would not consent to the Europeanization of Manchuria or Mongolia without a struggle. Japan's course at Port Arthur and in Korea and Manchuria a gen- eration ago is a token of what we might expect again if the Soviet attempts to extend its influence southward. THE SHIP'S MEDICINE CHEST AND FIRST AID AT SEA. The medical handbook for merchant seamen, first issued in 1881, has been amplified and reprinted, dedicated to the American merchant seamen, “at whose behest the marine hospitals were first estab- lished in the year 1798, and whose history as a patient of the Public Health Service is a record of the progress of medicine and sanitation in the United States.” Surgeon General H. S.“Cumming believes that the book will be even more useful than hereto- fore because recently ship's officers, as a condition to obtain their licenses, have been required to know medical first-aid principles. The growing custom of ships at sea to radio for medical advice from marine hospitals and other relief stations of the Public Health Service has also made it necessary to standardize medical equipment. This matter is covered in the handbook, together with valuable advice useful in such emergencies as poisoning, bleeding, suffocation, fractures, dislocations, burns, ‘electric shock, fits, wounds, etc, which not infre- tures of Byrd and Lindbergh.

(New York Times.) The Royal Society of Arts lately issued an ap- peal by Mr. Baldwin to preserve what is most characteristic of England's countryside, “the cottage homes which for century upon century have shelt- ered her sturdy sons of toil.” Many of these rustic houses are falling into ruins, others are “patched with corrugated iron,” and the place of still others has been taken by “gimcrack bungalows.” Among the cottages to be saved are “Button- quire control of West Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, because it is typical of old English country life. Vandalism threatens the wild flowers of Eng- land. Motorists pick and root up many of the speci- mens which the naturalist W. H. Hudson held to be the glory of the English country. The Council for the Preservation of Rural England is now dis- cussing with the Home Office a law to make the uprooting of wild flowers a penal offense. ‘Wickersham says that if prohibition is impossible the commission will admit it. Half the people of the country admitted that years ago.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Chorus There are times when it seems good qifalities get so darn little no- tice it isn’t worth while having any.
