(New York World.) Two items appeared in the newspapers yester- day that probably have a closer relationship to each other than at first sight they might appear to have. The first was a despatch from The World’s Washington Bureau to the effect that the Klan, as a result of the De Priest incident, will close Washington headquarters and move back to 1t suffered a bad blow, according to this despatch, when Mrs. Hoover elected to entertain| the wife of a Negro Representative. For it had partly on the ground that he be- lieved in social equality for Negroes; to have the wife of the candidate it had supported then turn around and actually entertain Mrs. De Priest stul- tified it before its followers, and caused a falling off in memberships. Thus, while the official rea- adopt the word in compliment to Frederick W. Bradley and in tribute to his success in transform- |’ ing “waste” into “ore” at the Alaska Juneau mine The low cost of production at the Alaska Juneau.| the transforming of material that a few years ago! would be “waste” into profitable ore, has been one‘ of the wonders of recent years in the mining world. \ It would be a fit recognition of this accomplishment | to use a word based upon the performance to de- scribe mineralized rock that possesses the poss bility of profit under the most scientific methods | of mining and mill treatment. REINDEER CULTURE RECOGNIZED Af A GREAT SUCCESS. The success of the Government experiment in transplanting reindeer in Alaska, an experiment that | developed a profitable industry, is attracting atten- tion throughout the world. In the decade between 1890 1600 United States purchs transported to about 1,200 reindeer. Now there are more than 1,000,000 in the and | for @ score of years the natives and others have used | them for food and clothing and income producers | and service on the roads and trails. The prac- ticability of domesticating reindeer in Alaska has been proved beyond question, and that is the judg- ment of those of all lands who have looked into the matter. For example, the Manchester Guard- and the ased and Territory, ian, one of the best, at least, of all English news- papers, in the last issue to be received here, con- tains the following editorial under the heading, “Reindeer and the Eskimo:” There have been few social experiments more interesting than the introduction of reindeer into Alaska, and the current report of the United States Bureau of Education shows that the experiment is still going well. That the work should be done by the Bureau of Education gives some clue to its nature and purpose. In the nineties of last century the native Eskimos were in some danger of exhausting their precarious food supply of seal, walrus, and wild cari- bou. The United States Government there- fore imported reindeer from across the Ber- ing Sea. In ten years more than a thousand head were introduced, together with Lapp herdsmen to tend them and to train the inhabitants to do likewise. The number of reindeer has now grown to more than a million; with the meat for food, the skins for clothing and a slight surplus for ex- port and exchange, the simple needs of the Eskimo are satisfied. Alaska is an ob- ject-lesson in the treatment of subject races. The purpose of the reindeer industry was primarily to make the country self-sup- porting, not an economic dependency to be exploited for raw materials or as a market. | The Eskimo himself owns the animals he keeps; he is not just a herdsman employed by a huge reindeer syndicate. If ever Alaska becomes, as it conceivably may, one of the world’s important meat-producers, a less scrupulous commercialism may invade the country. But export is not easy; lofty mountai fringe the southern coast, and the western ports are ice-bound for much of the year. Up to now the Eskimo has nothing but gratitude to feel toward the United States; nor is he the only one who might learn something from the Bureau of Education. TOO MUCH TALK BY PROHIBITION ENFORCERS. Clinton W. Gilbert, the Washington correspondent, says President Hoover ought to select a tongue-tied man to head the Prohibition enforcement outfit. He says the main trouble with the enforcers from the | time of Roy A. Haines to the present is that those at the head of affairs talk too much, ‘They seem to think they are spokesmen for a cause mstead of being well paid dicks. Instead of keeping mouths shut and setting out in business-like manner to enforce a law they become evangelists and then crusaders and then plain fools. Mrs. Willebrandt is said to have done very well until she became a public speaker and tried to make people believe that the Republican Party was a prohibition or- Gov.

The other despatch was by the Associated Press | from Austin, Tex.,, and told of Gov. Dan Moody's disapproval of the resolution passed by the Texas Legislature criticising Mrs. Hoover for entertain- ing Mrs. De Priest. “Any part of this resolution which may be construed as a personal criticism of the wife of the President of the United States of America,” he said, “does not have my personal approval and I decline to have any part in it.” In addition, he took exception to that part of the reso- which informed Democrats who had voted for Mr. Hoover that they had been warned of the possibility of just such an incident. Recognizing the right of every citizen to vote his convictions,” he said, “I do not assert the right to officially up- views different from mine, nor do I approved any attempt at official criticism of any citizen's vote.” And what do these two despatches indicate? Simply, in all likelihood, that Ku Kluckery, after having made its last desperate stand in the cam- the color hate is facing hard going. of a sort after all. line, then organized We do not make progress Rhodes Scholars from Germany. (New York Times.) The announcement that German students are again to receive Rhodes scholarships to study at Oxford may be considered a formal recognition of a resumption of pre-war relations between Eng- lish universities and the students of the former enemy nations. Welcome as is this gesture, it should not be taken now in Oxford. As a mpatter of fact, Oxford, as the Prince of Wales pointed out in his address of welcome, has the rare distinction of carrying on its honor rolls the names of German Rhodes scholars who gave their lives fighting against England. The practice is not in the nature of an after- thought. It was begun as early as the end of 1914 and was carried on through the war, despite criti- cism on the part of catious nationalities. The Ger- mans, so reasoned the Oxford authorities, had given their lives for their country as much as had the British. The memorial tablet was in honor of the sacrifice, rather than of one or other side in the war, The tolerance and generosity of spirit shown in this action cannot but have its repercussions in the future. The new German Rhodes scholars, reading not but be more impressed with their own oppor- tunities to come in direct contact with those who have helped perpetuate the tradition that comrade- ship in scholarly pursuits transcends the tragedies of war. Peace Pact Signed. (Prince Rupert News.) The formal signing and putting into force of the Kellogg Peace Pact which took place this week is a much more important event than the despatches received here seemed to indicate. While it may be- come nothing more than a scrap of paper, it is probable it will be much more and that it will have a very definite bearing on the future relations of the nations to each other. Already it seems to have had a restraining influence on Russia and China, who while ready to fly at each other’s throats seem to have been reluctant ta fly in the face of the whole world in breaking the pact. Canadians are sometimes a little apt to sneer at anything which comes from the United States and to feel that there is something behind it.
