Some of the Alaska papers got all fussed upl‘ because a confused report from the American Fed-| eration of Women's Clubs at its Denver session de- clared that the Federation had asked for an inves- | tigation by the Federal Government to determine what might be done about delinquent women and girls in Alaska. The fact is that the women at Denver simply asked the Federal Government to investigate a request of Alaska women to provide a Federal institution in Alaska for delinquent women and girls. ¢ This matter was presented to the last Territorial Legislature, and the concensus of opinion among the !from Puget Sound to the Northern Coast. THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 930. The next thing, if the dry States refuse nt 0 the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment will be ‘0o elect a Congress that will repeal the Volstead Act afid refuse to make appropriations for Pro- hibition enforcement There would be temporary haos (not worse than now, however) and then State control. damages followed the ravages of storms in Minnesota and elsewhere n the North. This week Texas is going through similar experience. Alaska weather may be dis- agreeable at times but life and property are rarely disturbed by it. The tariff is out of the way at last. The World Court will not be presented until a more “conven- ent” time. That leaves the Naval Treaty as the only major proposition for immediate consideration. Byron Price says Washington of 1932, Washington always is the next Presidential election. is talking much talking much of Californians Travel North. (Seattle Post-Intelligencer.) Both the Alaska Steamship Company and the Pacific Steamship Company, operating boats between Puget Sound and Alaska, basing their forecast upon advance bookings, predict unusually heavy travel to the Northern wonderland this season. A distinctive and gratifying new element in these bookings is the high proportion of tourists from Southern Cali- fornia. It is a good sign free themselves, even to see these good neighbors momentarily, from the en- chantment of their climate. Of all the natural blessings of earth, climate is greatest and most varied—great because it is varied. Of the elements which influence our daily lives, it is least subject | to change at man’s whim. We must take it as we find it, or move until we find what we wan*. Moderate change in weather—which is climate in action—is necessary to human happiness. Where is Eden? And who would care to go there? Man's indolence is proportional to the laziness of the mercury column. Rise and fall of temperance, the play of winds, sunshine and rain, are, within limits, as necessary to physical enjoyment and ! health as the crescendo and decrescendo to delight in music. Southern Californians, traveling North, taking Alaskan boats in Seattle, will notice little change The legislators was that the instances of delinquency are not sufficiently numerous to warrant the estabs lishment of such an institution here. The per capita | cost would be too great. It was believed that it| would be better to send such cases as might rise| to institutions in the States as has been the custom | in the past. Some of the Alaska women, aparently, believed { that Uncle Sam is rich enough to bear the cost ‘' of building and maintaining a home for delinquent women and girls jn Alaska, even though the per capita cost might be high, and asked the Federa- tion to intercede with the Federal Government in that behalf. ‘ There is not much in this situation to alarm; the people of Alaska when they know the facts i A WISE CHOICE. Direct primaries have not always worked so well as did the recent Republican primary in Oregon when it re-elected Ralph E. Willlams to be Oregon's member of the Republican National Committee. Ralph Williams was born in Oregon. He inherited wealth and developed it into a large fortune. He was chosen Republican National Committeeman twenty-two years ago, and had been re-elected every four years until the office was made elective in the party primary held mid-way between Presi- dential contests. Opposition developed against Mr. Williams and the head of a Portland business col- lege, who was a prominent member of the Cham- ber of Commerce and other civic organizations, a finished public speaker and outstanding citizen was induced to enter the contest against him. His op- ponent received the endorsement of the labor or- ganizations, the Anti-Saloon League and other blocs that were supposed to control a majority of the voters. However, Mr. Willlams was successful in the primary by an overwhelming majority. He carried every County in the State. His victory was so emphatic that it surprised the experts, including Mr. Williams himself. The campaign disclosed that the members of union labor refused to follow their leaders in his case. The rank and file of the work- ingmen voted for him. The victory of Mr. Williams was due to the things that had kept him in office so long—ability, integrity, unselfish public interest and industry. .- He had given most of his time from the first election to politics and the advancement of what he con- ceived to be the best interests of his State and the Pacific Coast. He had served until he had become the dean ,of the National Committee and its Vice-Chairman. He had been offered the Chair- manship, but declined it because, he said, the mo- ment he became National Chairman he would cease to be a representative of Oregon and the West and become a tribunal to judge any differences that might arise among the various sections of the country including his own. He preferred to be a representative of his State and the West. Oregon and the West are fortunate that they have Ralph Williams in the Republican National Committee where his influence is very important and where he serves with patriotic zeal and wisdom. He has steadfastly refused to accept public office. He is the committeeman of no man or faction. He is his own boss, and his decisions are always con- sidered from the standpoint of the welfare of his country and party |$: i (5 S T e S > “LANDING FIELDS” FOR BIRDS. The establishment of lx\r bird sanctuaries and 5 one public shooting ground in important wild-fowl ¥ areas of four Canadian Provinces within the past year indicates that Canada is fulfilling her obliga- tions under the migratory-bird treaty, which pro- tects birds migrating between that country and the United States, according to Paul G. Redington, 3 Chief of the Biological Survey of the United States has written the r‘ Department of Agriculture, who i Commissioner of the National Parks of Canada, the progress made by important line of con- : congratulating him upon B Canada “along this most 5 servation.” The United States has already set aside a number of similar refuges, or “landing fields,” for migratory waterfowl, and, in accordance with the migratory bird conservation act of February 18, 1929, will . purchase lands for other sanctuaries, it is antici- pated, when funds appropriated become available days will grow longer, scenery occasionally more rugged, timber lines will descend the mountain- sides. And up North they will be told that Alaskan coastal winters are little more severe than on /Puget Sound, where ice is stranger. It will be good for Californians to learn this, | '* as Puget Sound and Alaska both are misunderstood when it comes to climate. They will find that our summers are truly delightful.

(Manchester Guardian.) | In the hope that the Government might sub- sidize an agreed scheme for a national theatre a committee was appointed some time ago to find a plan. The committee has now published its |report, which expresses the opinion that the estab-| nshment of a national theatre in London, to be| regarded as a Shakespeare memorial, is practicable, and proceeds to outline a plan. It is proposed that the theatre should be organized on the repertory system, that it should be built on a central site in London, and that the. company should give performances in other towns in this country and in the Empire. Towards the fund required for the scheme the committee is prepared to contribute £100,000, and it is felt that with this help sufficient capital can be raised if the Government will make a grant of approximately £100,000 a year to meet interest and sinking fund chargés for a limited period. The suggestion is made in the report| that this Government grant could be taken outl of the proceetls from wireless receiver licenses. i Some of the English drys are kicking becaus: | \royalty visits beer saloons, but you couldn’t expect| a King or Prince to be bothered toting around a keg.—(Dayton, Ohio, News.)
