SSOCIATED PRESS. is exclusively entitled to the | news dispatches credited to in this paper and also the ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION SOUNDING THE TOCSIN. The Clipsheet of the Methodist Board of Tem- _perance, Prohibition and Public Morals has sounded .the tocsin. It is calling upon the members of the churches to disregard the eriticism of church activ- ity in politics and to line up and vote in the pri- maries and election the way they have done in the past. It takes cognizance of the loss in membership sus- tained by the churches that have been politically active during the last few years, but charges that it is due to “abuse and persecution.” It calls upon the Protestant churches to oppose the leadership of Mr. Raskob in the Democratic Party. It declares that the “excellent” opportunities of success for that party will be in peril unless the Democrats heed the advice of those of their number who are dry. The Clipsheet proceeds: In this crisis, the Democatic leaders of the South and West have shown a com- prehension of the underlying facts. Sen. Robinson, Sen. Cameron, [Senator Cameron Morrison?] Rep. Cordell Hull, Gov. White, Mr. Costigan have indicated that they realize certain disaster lies ahead in 1932, if Mr. Raskob's introduction of the methods of a Tammany boss into National Democratic af- fairs remains unchgllenged. The West and the South look to these gnetlemen in the confident expectation that it will not only be challenged, but effectively challenged. There need be no misapprehension; the abuse and persecution to which the Pro- testant Churches have been subjected since 1928, will not deter them from their duty in 1932. The honest and intelligent farmers of the plains and plantations, the sober and patriotic business and professional men of the small cities, who lead their families to the little Methodist and Presbyterian churches on Sunday morning, know that their intelligence and their character and their courage have been brought into ques- tion, that the heritage of their children as Americans is in danger, that their right to participate effectively in Government is MANAGER the 3 ‘ land. at issue. They will vote for the Democratic Party, for the Republican Party or for some other party in 1932, which gives evidence of holding their opinions in respect, which believes in majority, not minority, rule in party affairs. Their fathers fought and bled for the good of this country before Mr. Raskob's forebears knew anything of it. They are prepared now to resist to the uttermost his efforts and the efforts of those he represents to wrest from them the precious legacy of the tall men of the RO SPECIALS long rifle, a legacy which they will defend for the sake of their children and their children’s children. This is a threat rather than advice so far as the Democratic Party is concerned. The Methodist | Chipsheet has no intention of helping the Demo- crats. It is only trying to ride and direct the course of both the donkey and the clephant. | But more than anything else it is an appeal to the churches to continue actively in politics. It is not particularly concerned in the fact that politically active churches are constanly losing members. It appeals to religious and nationality prejudices to enforce its dictates. If the churches desire to gain in membership {and make themselves more useful to the cause of | the Master they will get out of politics and devote their energies to the cause of the Christian religion. In that way they could stop the exodus of disgusted { members. We offer the guess that those Methodist churches | that have remained out of politics have generally | held their members. Speed the Day. i (Seward Gateway.) Speed the happy day when that international highway from Seattle to Alaska will become an _accomplished fact. { How the imagination leaps at prospect of that | glorious consummation! In one year following the | opening of that artery of travel Alaska will advance |in a bound more than any advantage gained in the past 25 years. Then indeed, will Alaska come into her own. {The road will have an irresistable lure for the rubber-tired voyageurs who have shuttled back and ' forth across the United States until scenes have become familiar. Think of rambling in comfort from Puget Sound to the Land of the Midnight Sun! And that's what |they can do. Arriving in the Interior they can | take that Circle Highway and in fancy now we can| i hear the “Oh's and the “Ah's” of the multitude| as the red orb of Old Sol takes his majestic march {athwart the midnight sky. But that is by no means all. Within the space of months a hundred thousand persons will gain first hand knowledge of this magnificent North- Many of them will linger; many of them will cast about for new homes in this, the great- {est of Uncle Sam's Territorial possessions. We have always said and still earnestly main- tain that but to know Alaska is to love her. A fine store of happiness is already in bond, we say, for many thousands of the present generation. “Trotzky may go to Spain.” troubles already?
