The Department says: As President Hoover stated in his Fire Prevention Week Proclamation, the fire waste of North America is the greatest in the world and it is only through the earn- est effort of each one of us that the present condition can be corrected. Fire Prevention Week serves to focus attention on the enormity of our annual fire waste whereas a year-round fire prevention pro- stantly. It will result in a tremendous decrease in physical hazards and provide improved methods of municipal and private fire protection. Some of the outstanding features of such program which were suggested by the Insurance Department were the adoption or revision of fire| prevention and building codes, year-] -round educa- tional campaigns, regular fire inspections by prop- erty owners and city firemen and the improvement of municipal protection through extensions of fire alarm and water supply systems and. additional apparatus or men in the fire department, that is necessary. It was also suggested that the extent to which local fires are of incendiary origin might be in-| vestigated. The percentage of such fires is much greater than is generally known. Arson is, of course, punishable by law, but as conviction is frequently difficult the assistance of the entire community is needed to exterminate this most vicious type of criminal. THE LAW. One of the difficult problems of Prohibition Di- rector Amos W. W. Woodcock, the last man to undertake to dry up the United States, seems to be to make the dry agents throughout the country confine themselves to lawful methods of law en- forcement. A little incident that is illustrative of the point is chronicled by a dispatch sent out by one of the Washington news services. It said: Amos W. W. Woodcock, Prohibition Di- rector, carrying to dry agents in the field his gospel of lawful methods and gentlemanly conduct, stopped short on the threshold of enforcement headquarters at Wilmington, Del Over the doorway he gazed upon an em- blem of the Wilmington force. It was two police night sticks, crossed, surmounted by a pair of brass “knucks.” Woodcock ordered it down at once. The Wilmington agents have had 27 chiefs since 1920, he said today, and have not been “pro- perly instructed.” REAL WAR UNDER WAY IN BRAZIL. That promises to be a real war, if not a revolu- tion, that has been spreading throughout Brazil for the last few weeks. It is said that eight States are in more or less open rebellion and a considerable portion of the army has gone over to the rebels. The Government, which has declared martial law in a large part of the republic, professes to believe that it will quell the uprising, though its activities are those of a country going to war rather than prepar- ations for a police problem. ' There is no doubt but that the revolutionary successes in Bolivia, Peru and Argentina are en- couraging the dissatisfied elements in Brazil. There has been some talk of intervention from Uruguay and, perhaps Paraguay, but the Government in each country has taken S5teps to prevent its nationals from entering the Brazilian conflict . The business depressipn, which is not confined to the United States, but' prevails everywhere, is an aggravating factor in the restlessness that exists throughout a large part of South America. A THREAT OR A PROMISE? Josephus Daniels says if the Wadsworths, Mor- rows, Tuttles, etc, should control the Republican National Convention in 1932, write a wet platform and nominate a wet Presidential candidate, and the Raskobs, Roosevelts, Ritchies, etc, should con- trol the Democratic National Convention, write a wet platform and nominate a wet Presidential can- didate, then the Prohibition forces of the land would nominate a dry candidate for President.

Town’s Best Asset. a (Seward Gateway.) Beautiful cities, towns and villages attract peo- ple. They attract permanent residents, they attract |tourists, and they attract trade. It is natural that a person selecting a trading center will choose a town that is beautiful and clean in prefrence to lone that is unsightly and dirty, if other conditions are anywhere near. equal. New houses and buildings in Seward show bet- ter architecture. In the business section the old dilapitated buildings are slowly vanishing. Unsight- ily lots and fences are now few. Our streets, while [not the best, have been passable this summer. It| is anticipated next spring will see the main streets | and avenue undergo intense repair. | Seward needs more lawns, more trees, shrubbery {and flowers.

It behooves the authorities of any community, |as well as each individual citizen, to make the most of their opportunities for improving the appearance of the place in which they live. During the com- ing winter plan to beautify your property, or home, next spring. Beauty and cleanliness are a town's best assets. Andree’s Last March. (Manchese2r Guardian.) The body of Fraenkel, the third member of | the fll-fated Andree expedition which was lost thirty-three years ago, has now been recovered | from the Polar ice, and enough of the records of | the venture have been found to enable us to vis- ualize what happened and how it happened. ItJ seems pretty clear that the balloon came down on the third day, and that for some three months the three explorers wandered along the ice-floe. Their end was due not to starvation—plenty of food was found near Fraenkel's body—but to unusual rigor of the weather. But for a further accident of weather the bodies might have remained enclosed in the ice for years more. What scientific informa- tion the explorers were able to gather a more de- tailed investigation of their records may disclose. What does emerge is an heroic fight against ever- increasing difficulties. As an example of human | endurance, of courage and cheerfulness under odds |too great to be conquered, the expedition will rank |high in the records of Arctic exploration. i | | el A L e | America’s Rise in Aviation. | (Olympia Olympian.)
