ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER | THAN THAT OF 'ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. ALASKA MOURNS ELMER J. WHITE. One of Alaska’s best citizens passed away when Elmer J. White, editor and publisher of Stroller’s | Weekly died yesterday morning. Mr. White came to Alaska in 1898 to join the staff of the Skagway News. He had been editor of a newspaper at Sumner, Washington, and an employee of the Post- Department at Port Townsend for sovvral; office years. Before that for a dozen years he had been | engaged in newspaper work in Florida. After two | years with the Skagway News he went to Dawson | and was engaged in newspaper work there before | to Whitehorse where he published and| edited the Star, a weekly paper, before coming to Douglas in 1915. He was editor and publisher of | the Douglas News for a few years and director of publicity for Alaska under appointment from Gov.| Riggs. He then moved his Douglas paper to Juneau | where it became Stroller's Weekly which has| thrived for a dogen years. He was elected to the| Alaska Legislature in 1918 and was Speaker of the | House at the session of 1919. In 1922 he was the | Democratic nominee for Delegate to Congress. Mr. White was a man of the highest character and a journalist of more than ordinary abil- ity. He was loyal to his friends and true to his convictions. He was an Alaskan in all that the term implies. He will be sorely missed by the pioneers who are devoting their abilities to the | development of the North. The writer had known Mr. White for nearly four | decades and speaks with knowledge when he testi- | fies to his loyalty to.convictions and his high con- cepts of citizenship and thé finer ethics of the profession of journalism. E. J. White was a gentle- | man in the full meaning of that word and an| authentic newspaper man He never betrayed a friendship or behaved less than a gentleman in anything. He was broad and tolerant, and adhered to the best characteristics of Americanism. He was of the best we have in citizenship. No Alaskan will be mourned more sincerely or missed more deeply than will this good Alaskan and good newspaperman. The sympathy of all in the North in large measure is with the surviving members of his family. Thelr grief is that of | everybody. coming AL CAPONE, A “SELF-MADE” AMERICAN. Fred D. Pasley once d that he lived sixteen miles north of Chicago's Loop; that his recreutioni in the Spring was sowing grass seed; that his | recreation in the Summer was cutting it down; that he had a wife, a canary, two dogs and & first and second mortgage. If the publishers are not exaggerating, Mr. Pasley may soon be able to dispose of those mortgages. His latest book is “Al| Capone, The Biography of a Self-Made Man,” and the publishers declare that they have got so many advance orders from bookstores that they have several times had to enlarge the specifications to the | printers for the first edition, and they are already preparing for the second large printing though the first is not yet off the press. Now if the gang leader will refrain from putting him on the spot and relieving him of his profits, Mr. Pasley will soon be in a position that authors dream of when they are young and rarely reach at any age LISH PA The late mails bringing English newspapers with accounts of William Randolph Hearst's expulsion from France show that they made a lot more of the incident over there than Mr. Hearst's own countrymen have made. British editors printed long accounts of the matter and wrote editorials in their best English. Notwithstanding the lack of approval in England of Heal m and Hearst international policies the London and provincial press generally took the side of Mr. Hearst against France. Most of the writers praised the humor of the ironical statement he gave out after reaching England. (It is printed with an account of the affair in today's Empire). A typical English comment is the following from the Manchester Guardian Mr. Randolph Hearst has struck so many hard knocks himself—most of us have not forgotten the extraordinary fulminations of his papers this year against the British Premier—that he must take it as all in his game that the French Government should have expelled him from France, and he has certainly made capital out of it by his amusing comment on his expulsion, which is a model of its kind, rebuking France for taking him so seriously. The outrageous has always been the line of Mr. Hearst's press, and a republication of its outbursts at critical times when good citizens of all countries were working for peaceful inter- national relationships would make very sad reading. But the reader of popular news- has a short memory on both sides {they country, but at times he has been friendly and even very friendly, and despite the out- bursts against Mr. MacDonald he seems to be willing to let Britain survive for the mo- ment. He even publishes several magazines here. He has indeed shown sufficient inter- | est in this country to rescue St. Donat’s Castle, in Wales, from dissolution and to have stocked it with famous old English glassware, silverware, and furniture He | spent two weeks there in July when the restoration work was completed, and intends to come back many times. He is a I quent visitor to London, where he has many | friends. { His visit to Paris on Tuesday, which led | to his expulsion, was not his first .visit | since the incident when one of his staff | obtained the French secret document and published it. He was in Paris for a week since then, and there was no talk of expul- | sion. Continental expulsions of visitors from across the Atlantic are helping the newspapers a lot in this dead season. | There is no doubt about it. Gov. Franklin D.

He had just reached Paris from Ger- many, and received the order to leave France with- in twenty-four hours. He subsequently left Paris, and went to London. N It will be remembered that Mr. Hearst’s chief| correspondent in Paris was expelled from France in September, 1928, after he had published secret documents showing that a naval agreement be- tween Great Britain and France was being officially discussed. It was known that Mr. Hearst, who was| in Paris at the time, was directly responsible for | the publication of this document. Two members of the French Foreign Office were | implicated; one of them has been attempting to bring a suit to prove that he was wrongly held responsible, and there has been some agitation in| the newspapers because the suit has been held Mr. W | LET Almquisv rress <Your Sull |pear in the District Court for the & i F !

Phone 52§ SUMMONS I No. 3094-A In the District Court for the Ter-| ritory of Alaska, First Division.| William F. Campen, Plaintiff, vs.| Gladys Eva Campen, Defendant.| THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNIT-! ED STATES OF AMERICA. | TO THE ABOVE-NAMED DE-y FENDANT, GREETING: | You are hereby required to ap- Hellenthal Hours: Territory of Alaska, First Division, |« at Juneau, within thirty days after! the last publication of this sum-| mons, hamely, within thirty days after the fourth day of October,| 1930, in case this summons is pub- lished, or within forty days after the date of its service upon you, in up. The “Action Francaise” last month accused | M. Briand of being responsible for the delay. Mr.| |Hearst's expulsion may be connected with this case, |plaintiff on file in the said Court but no reason has been officially published. i Mr. Hearst is also accused in the French press! :or a systematically anti-French policy and of hav- gemands the following relief: ing written articles recently in German newspapers apsolute divorce from the said de- in favor of a revision of the peace treaties. | Mr. Willlam Randolph Hearst was in London | lon Tuesday, and made an important statement on|yity regard to the child of plain-| the subject of his expulsion from France. | “I have no complaint to make,” he said. "The’ officials were txeremely polite. They said I was| an enemy of France and a danger in their midst They made me feel quite important. They said I could stay a little while longer if I desired, that! would take the chance of nothing disastrous happening to the Republic. But I told them that | I did not want to take the responsibility of endan- gering the great French Nation; that America| had saved it once during the war, and I would save it again by leaving. “Furthermore, I was like the man who was toldf that he was going blind, and who said he did not mind as he had seen everything anyhow. Sim- ilarly I had seen everything in France, including some very interesting governmental performances. |Then I asked M. Tardieu's emissary to express to| M. Tardieu my immense admiration at his amazing| alertness in protecting France from the peril of invasion, and we parted, with quite elaborate polite- | ness. s “It was a little bit foolish, but extremely French. The reason for the strained relations—to use a proper diplomatic term—was the publication of the secret Anglo-French treaty two years ago by the| Hearst newspapers, which upset some international ‘apple-carts’ but informed the American people; | and, of course, that being the reason, the French Government was entirely right in levelling its at-| tack at me, and quite wrong in its action toward| Mr. Horan, who was only my agent. ' think, however, that the general attitude of | the Hearst press in opposing the entrance of thel United States into the League of Nations, or any | protective pacts to involve our country in the quar- rels of European Powers, is mainly responsible. Also, there might have been some slight irritation | at the occasional intimations in our papers that| France, now being the richest nation in the world, might use some of the German indemnity to pay her honest debts to America, especially because if it had not been for America she would now be paying indemnity instead of receiving it. “I1f being a competent journalist and a loyal American make a man persona non grata in France, sleep. In fact, the whole affair reminds me of the story of the rather effeminate young man who went to call on his best girl and found her in the arms of another young fellow. The effeminate youth went into the hall, took up his successful rival's umbrella, broke it and said, it rains!’ You see, for the French national policy of ‘Revenge’ to be completely successful, we will have to have rain.” rectly at the motorist, but a more practical and appropriate warning would be a steam calliope which plays “Nearer, My God, to Thee."—(Ohio State Journal.) If John D. Rockefeller is correct in his theory that the less you talk the better golf you play, we know a former President who can give Bobby Jones a handicap.—(New York Post.) % Political prophets in Washington are predict- ing that Mr. Hoover won't be a candidate to succeed himself in 1932, Ding it, it looks as if Democrats just never will get a break.—(Macon, Ga., Telégraph.) As food administrator during the war Mr. Hoover decreed “wheatless” days for the country. Now it seems to be up to him to force us all to eat sixteen bushels of wheat each meal.—(Worcester Telegram.)
