ALASKA’ MBASSADOR. the Rev. Father B. R. Hubbard, Alaska has a volunteer ambassador fam- iliar with her amazing wonders and capable of directing the attention of the world to them. His explorations of Katmai's volcanoes, active and ex- tinct, unrivalled by anything of the kind on earth, and of the Taku and Mendenhall glaciers, surpass ing in size and grandeur all the ice marvels of the Alps put together, are told by him in an article written by Barrett Willoughby in the current week's | issue of the Saturday Evening Post. The story of | his experiences in a publication with 2,500,000 cir-| culation, reaches every hamlet and city, every nook‘» and corner of the United States, nearly all parts of | Canada and almost every other community on the| globe where there are people that speak English.| Quite likely, the narrative will cause other| scholars with a bent for original research to invade this Territory to view‘and study not only her geo-| logic phenomena but also many other scientific phases of her land and water areas. It will prompt | other magazines and syndicated news organizations, | if they pursue their usual policy of emulation, to |* print articles of the same or a similar kind, nnd‘ interest in Alaska will be intensified and sustained. | | Without doubt, the Post and the publications that| follow its example will create a desire among per-| sons, with time and means at their disposal, to see the wonders that so entertainingly have been described to them. | By only comparatively few persons, have Alaska's marvels been known or appreciated. Most residents are familiar with the attractions along the usual lines of travel, but many, like ordinary tourists, are| strangers to the wonders of the remote places.| Sportsmen have penetrated some of the distant| game zones. Government scientists have made pain- staking investigations and recorded them in official reports, and while these do not lack interested read- ers they fail in popular appeal. Chambers of Com- merce and transportation companies advertise nat- ural attractions and travel facilities, but the purpose of such efforts, commendable in every instance, is chiefly to influence persons already intent on visit- ing the Territory to come to certain places by cer- tain routes rather than to arouse a widespread, general interest in the country. Father Hubbard’s mission to acquaint the world with Alaska is ot ended. It is just beginning. He will publish other articles. He has arranged for a series of lectures, illustrated with still and motion pictures, to be delivered in the States and in Europe within the next year. His story in this week’s Post and the recent address he delivered here attest his ability to translate his scientific knowledge and hazardous adventures into popular and absorb- ingly interesting narrative. In the Glacier Priest, MISLEADING PROPAGANDA. The Clipsheet of the Methodist Board of Tem- perance, Prohibition and Public Morals quotes the late President Roosevelt: The liquor traffic tends to produce crim- inality in the population at large and law- breaking among the saloon keepers them- selves. The sons and at least one sister of the late President Roosevelt are actively opposed to Pro- hibition and urge the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. It means something sometimes to know in what ‘way an excerpt quoted for propaganda was originally used. Col. Roosevelt never urged the prohibition of liquor by law. That is true with most of those from whom the drys quote expressions against the use of liquor. There is absolutely no connection be- tween total abstinence from the use of strong drink and Prohibition as we have it in the United States, and much less emphatic in the relation of Prohibi- tica to temperance. ROOM FOR REFORM EVERYWHERE. Speaking of lynching Negroes, The San Diego Sun said: “All too often throughout the South mob violence of this sort has gone unpunished.” Two out of the last three lynchings that we have heard of were in the North. But that does not qualify the California paper’s observation. Negro Iynchings in the South are too frequent and they go unpunished too often. However, there is room for a lot of reform in race toleration in the North as well as in the South. ADVERTISING FOR POPULATION. Oregon boosters have concluded that population growth follows advertising. They attribute Cali- fornia’s rapid gain to intensive advertising, and they propose to try it out for their State. A meeting was just held in Portland to organize for the pur- pose of raising $250,000 to conduct an Oregon nine persons to the square mile while it showed |elections and |though inevitable.

MONDAY, AUGUST 25, 1930 e St e Oregonians believe this disparity is all out of l])x'nporllon to the relative merits of the States. Nine persons to the mile might seem {small in Oregon, but in Alaska we have almost ex- actly ten square miles to the person. square | i | That Illinois Democratic platform went about all the way in its opposition to the Eighteenth |Amendment and the various laws enacted to en- |force it. It is in favor of the repeal of the Amend- iment but it does not propose to put off relief until that can be accomplished. It would start with wine |and beer and not stop until State rights are re- stored. | Al Smith says the Democrats will win the next bring happiness and prosperity to the Nation. Al is, to say the least, :an optimistic |defeated candidate. Neither Jim Cox mnor John Davis talked like that after their respective disasters. Tribute to Coast Guard.’ (New York sun.) At the beginning of its 141st year today, the United States Coast Guard finds its tasks more |advertised in the popular mind by its efforts to |enforce one highly controversial statute—the Pro- hibition Enforcement Act s is unfortunate, dutie ange from protec- the revenues—prevention ‘of smuggling— to distressed dwellers in remote sections of Its cutters are constantly in service from the southernmost keys off the Floridian coast to the northernmost reaches of the Arctic Sea off | Alaska.

Many who would have turned from the story of the wreck of the Mears round-the-world plane, re- marked that it was “just another smashup,” lingered because of the disappearance of Tailwind II. This intelligent dog when the plane cracked up in the dark quite sensibly took to the marshes in an effort as the colored folk say, of further He deeply regretted having to Mears, but common human foolishness. leave his kind master, Mr. sense was common sense. The fact that for days Mr. Mears hung around Harbor Grace, refusing to return to New York until {Tallwind II was found, has endeared both man | |and dog to the public. World-flight aviators are| conspicuous figures, and it is in the revelation of Esuch traits as this that they fix their public status. !An extensive search ended in the capture of Tail- |wind II, “and for the first time in days the wor- ried look disappeared from Mears's face.” But how about the look on the dog's face? A new plane is to be conmstructed, a new start is to be made. Will Tailwind II be asked again to go as mascot?, |And who is; going to have the job of persuading| him to get aboard another of those flying things? The Shakespeare of Shorthand. (St. Louis Post-Dispatch.) In conferring the doctor of science degree on John Robert Gregg, the originated of the Gregg land’s second inauguration. The idea took such hold that by the opening of the new century the stenographer had secured her place in American business life. Gregg made the secretary's problems his own and to help her out brought out numerous exercises, dictionaries, phrase books, speed practices and reporting short-cuts. Today the scribblings of the Irish immigrant are not only used in virtually all of the American schools but have been adapted to seven foreign languages. Learning Is Hard Game. (New York World.) No person is qualified to say how things should be until he knows how things are. There are many persons who are willing to tell you what is right and what is wrong, although they have no sensible idea as to what is human. The wrong in fanaticism is that it closes the eyes of the fanatic. He sees only that which furnishes material for the evolution of a preconceived concln- sion. What weakens his position he refuses to no- tice. No person who has attained to any conviction save through doubt and wonder has any right to that position or any security in it. No person who believes anything so completely that he has no need of reservations has given enough thought to his conviction. The eyes are opened by a desire for under- standing. They remain open because of a love of understanding. v Since the heat record for 70 years has been broken, don’t you see it can’t happen again for 70 years—in all probability? The worst is over— (St. Louis Globe-Democrat.) Captains of industry cry against reduction of wages, declaring that such a move also would in- jure the purchasing power. Labor will agree with capital in this instance at least. — (Los Angeles Times.) President Grace must have been worth his $12,- 000 a year salary if he could produce enough for the Bethlehem Steel Company to receive from it a $1,600,000 bonus.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.) With the new National Director of Prohibition and Morals demanding 620 more dryup agents, the unemployment problem ultimately will be solved with everyone on salaried Government jobs as en- forcement officers.—(Ohio State Journal) The new dry.enforcement officials will popularize thmeselves if they keep their promise not to inter- fere with hip pockets.—(Cincinnati Enquirer.)
