ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TC BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION MONEY AND BUSINESS. The Seattle Business Chronicle offers this as a riddle: Speaking of riddles, see what you make of this one. Those who contact the public as collectors and salesmen keep telling us—quite ungrammatically — “the people haven't got money.” March statements of banks of Washington’s leading cities show that depos- its are actually greater than a year ago and virtually the same as at end of 1930. Can it be possible that the banks have a lot of money that doesn't belong to any- oody? While it is quite true that the banks have greater deposits now than they had a year ago and that the money in the banks bpelongs o ‘he depositors, bank clearings in Seattle and other cities are far less than they were in 1930. Also 't might be mentioned that a large proportion of the money in the banks, particularly the savings, ~re controlled generally by the banks. That s, the money is loaned, #f at all, by banks and not by those who own it. However, the people are not doing the volume of business they were doing n year ago. The industries and trade are at a low ebb and are not creating the demand for money that has existed in the past. Under i):le circum- stances, banks and people who have money naturally scrutinize with care applications for loans. Credits are always impaired when business condi- tions are not favorable for profits to those who would borrow. However, it is worth a lot to know that, differing from the situation in the '90s, there is abundant impressed by the talk about the “inferior status”|tances and endeared him greatly | money in the country. It signifies that when there is an upward turn in business conditions there will be ample funds to care for the situation. IMPERIAL TARIFF PROPOSALS. The British Imperial Conference that was ad- journed last year from London to convene :n Ottawa this year will again, without doubt, consider | the proposal of Premler Bennett of Canada for preferential tariff among the members of the Brit- isr Commonwealth of Nations. It will probably not take up the Empire free trade plan of the English Conservatives because England -will be represented in the conference by the Labor Government of that country. There is a vast difference between the two proposals. Though both are offered by Conserva- tives, the Canadian Conservative plan proposes pro- tection for the producers of the Dominions against English competition with higher tariffs against non- British countries. Mr. Baldwin, Conservative leader in England, would have all the British Commonwealths impose tariffs on imports from other countries than those in the Empire and have free trade within the Em- pire. That would give English products free entry into Canada, Australia and the other Dominions, and give the Dominions free entry into Great Britain. Canadian wheat and Australian beef and wool would thus crowd out the products of South America. American surplus wheat would have to find another market than Great Britain unless the Canadian crop would be too small to supply British demands, and then we would have to compete for the market with other wheat. But this plan was absolutely -ejected at London by Premier Bennett, Canadian Conservative leader, because it would compel Canadian ‘nanufacturers to compete with those of Great Britain ‘n the Can- adian home market. He was willing that Canada should purchas: what she cannot make herself ‘rom the mother country, but he insisted that Canadian producers be protected against the products of that country. The indications at this time are that the dead- lock will not be broken at the Ottawa conference. The British Labor Government is opposed to both! plans, but particularly so against the Bennett plan. The United States acquired the Virgin slands in 1917 and almost immediately thereafter .lestroyed their principal industry by adopting the Zighteenth Amendment and passing the Volstead Act. If ihe islands as Mr. Hoover said are an “effective poor- house” Uncle Sam made them so. | In effect, President Hoover promised in his 1928 campaign, in the event of election, to banish poverty from the land and set up a system that would Insure permanent and continuous prosperity. When he signed the Smoot-Hawley tariff measure he did a lot to thwart the fulfilment of nis promise. Conservative Canada. (New York Times.) That mystic “equality of status” granted to the Dominions by the Imperial Conference of 1926 was implemented by its successor of 1929. Among the constitutional changes, involving the repeal of cer- tain acts of the Imperial Parliament, were the emd of its power to reject a Dominion law, of the power of the Imperial Privy Council to hear Dom- inion appeals; and the extension of extraterritorial force to certain Dominion statutes. It was agreed that these and other recommendations should be | considered by the Imperial Conference of 1930. The Liberal Government had fallen before that. Mr. Bennett and the Conservatives were much less en- | thusiastic than Mr. Mackenzie King had been. Mr. Bennett insisted that the opinion of the Provincial Governments should be sought. Constitutions should not be hastily altered, and some of the proposed innovations might cause uneasiness in certain parts of Canada; and even shadowy ‘“bonds” of connection with the mother country may be worth keeping. The Conference of Provincial Premiers, now sit-| ting at Ottawa, has decided that Canada shall ask for the repeal of all the colonial laws validity act of 1865, save the one section which gives the Im- perial Parliament the right to disallow a Dominion statute. This power is not merely dormant, but dead. Its purpose, presumably the reason for its| continuance, was the protection, no longer neces-| sary, of the Frech minority. The same is true of the Judicial Committee act of 1844, empowering the Crown in Council to provide. for appeals from any court of justice in any British colony or nos-] |session. While the unfavorable decision of the |Privy Council on the Labrador boundary three or | |four years ago produced temporarily considerable \irritation in Quebec, that Province and the French {element elsewhere shrink generally from constitu-, |tional change. They are content with their status| ,as it is, stable and secure. They are not at all‘ lunder which Canadians are supposed to suffer, so |long as this right of appeal continues. | | It is to be noted that the Privy Council is loath | jto grant appeals from the Supreme Court. Prob-‘ ably Canadians are not much interested in these| Imatters now. Mr. Bennett has promised to call /another Conference of the Provincial Premiers in |two or three years. He is not going to follow | (the American example of amending in haste, re- {penting at leisure. The conference accepted, of |course, those parts of the future act at West- ;minster which assure to Canada complete power over her shipping at sea as well as in port. The Maritime Provinces and British Columbia expect great advantages from this change. Racketeering costs the country $12,000,000,000 a year, says New York statisticians, just about the| total printed the other day as representing the cost | of all branches of Government.—(St. Louis Globe- | Democrat.) ‘There’s one thing to be said for America's in- surgents. They haven't ever boasted that heads \will roll when they come into power.—(Washington Post.) If you think politicians have an easy graft, ‘try sitting on a fence and keeping one ear on the | ground.—(San Francisco Chronicle.)

The animals, driven from the inland district by the deep snow, likewise found deep snow on the Westward coast and it is said many were seen in holes they had dug in an effort to reach moss buried under the snow. It was also reported that some of the deer had ropes about thier necks chowing they were from private herds. What may develop into a clue as to the disappearance of Capt. Charles Emsweiler, Seward resi- dent, last fall, is reported in the finding of a box of clams on Mar- mot Island by an Indian. Captain Emsweiler's boat was loaded with cased clams at the time he van- ished in Westward waters. Attorney J. L.

The intention is to close down early at most points, | putting up not over 50 per cent of the company's usual production. T0 JUNEAU BOY Byron Ela, Former Resi- dent Is Broadway Valedictorian Byron Ela, who formerly lived in Juneau, is No. 1 in the Senlor Class at Broadway high school in Seattle. He will be valedictorian at the commencement exercises. He has to his credit 178 Honor Society points.

Since he came to Broadway he has made eight A’'s and one B. He had no par- ticular course in high school, but took those subjects that appealed most to him, especially English, : !Prench and Spanish.
