ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION BOOMING EX-CROWN PRINCE FOR | PRESIDENT. | European correspondents writing to New York | newspapers declare that there is a strong movement the Monarchist party in Germany to nomi- pwn Prince Friedrich Wilhelm for the‘ pete with President von Hinden- obably again be a candidate for President next year. And, strange as it may seem Monerchists are counting on Adolf Hitler's National | Socialist party for co-operation. John Elliott, Berlin correspondent of the New York Herald Tribune, says the Hitler following would prefer the fascist system to monarchy but| would prefer the latter to a continuation of the parliamentary plan of government. One faction of the National Socialists is admittedly favoring the restoration of monarchy. Elliott says Helmuth Brusckner, Hitler leader in Silesia, recently in the presence of the ex-Crown Prince and a conference of nobles and junkers declared that the National Socialists were consciously striving for a monarchy that would stand above Parliament and parties. The impression seems to be general that should the ex-Crown Prince be elected President he would | attempt to follow the example of Louis Napoleon inE France who promoted himself from the Presidency to Emperor. The National Socialists have already registered | their opposition to the re-election of von Hinden- ‘burgs. However, it is said they are not all confident that he can be defeated even with an al- liance with the Monarchists. That the Monarchists are dissatisfied with the von Hindenburg Presidency is admitted. On this point, the Herald Tribune correspondent says The Monarchists believe that in the former Crown Prince they would not suffer a repetition of the disappointment they experienced when they put up Hindenburg for President in 1925. “Our Hindenburg,” as they called him, was elected by a majority of Nationalists in the expectation that he would act as a sort of Admiral Horthy, keeping the seat of the chief executive warm until a Hohenzollern was ready to occupy it again. Instead, Hindenburg has kept his oath of office and has done more than anybody else to stabilize the Republican regime. The Nationalists considér however, with reason, that they would have better luck with the ex-Crown Prince, himself a Hohenzollern. He represents today the chief hope of the Monarchists who recognize that the restora- tion of the “Master of Doorn” is not practi- cal politics. Just as Louis Napoleon, after being elect- ed President of France, eventually mounted to the imperial throne held before him by his illustrious uncle, so the Gefman Mon- archists are confident that the election of the former ex-Crown Prince to the presi- dency of the Reich would be but an opening wedge for his assumption of regal dignity. It is generally admitted that the success of these plans would depend largely upon whether or not President von Hindenburg would care to be a candidate against his former Prince. Monarch- ists hope that he would refuse to run against a Hohenzollern. They believe that if he should choose to run again that he would probably be elected. His hold on the people is admittedly stronger than that of any other citizen of the Republic. in burgh who will WOMEN PRESERVING HONOLULU BEAUTY. A careless steamshovel engineer who shoved his shovel along a city street and broke off over- hanging boughs of two enormous shade trees, crashed into a lot of trouble, says a Honolulu item. For the Outdoor Circle, an organization of Hon- olulu women, who work at all times for the reten- tion of the city's beauty, is up in wrathful indigna- tion. The women have protested to government- - al agencies and a heavy fine may result. The Outdoor Circle watches catefully for any destruction of the city's natural beauty. It was this organiza- tion that waged a successful fight against billboards in the Islands, threatening to see that Honolulu housewives would boycott any product so adver- tised. RUSSIA AND JAPAN TAKING BRITISH FISH MARKETS. According to the Department of Commerce Rus- sian crab meat is forcing the Japanese crab and Nova Scotia. lobster out of the British markets. Nova Scotia lobster is selling for from $3 to $5 a case lower than it was at this time last year, and lob- ster fishermen are being paid just -enough to enable them to continue fishing. The packers say they ‘have been forced to pay the low prices to fishermen / on account of the condition of the market. Almost fl)e only market for Nova Scotia lobsters now is on and the demand there even at the low prices only fair. It is feared that Russian canned crab meat will the British shellfish market as completely 5 their canned salmon dominated it last year.

K.'s Weekly, Mr, Chesterton| proceeds “to 'eave 'arf a brick' 'at “The Worst It is a variety which he thinks is really weakening language and literature” in this country. He begins by testifying that he has the “great- est respect for American slang as long as it is This he defines, rather loosely, as that normal popular habit of takings liberties with the language.” Examples make his meaning .clear,i “Highbrow” is a fine, picturesque, vivid' word not to| be replaced by any abstraction. “High-hatting” is also of the admirable kind. When an American accuses a supercilious and | condescending Englishman of having “a superiority complex,” that is the worst kind of slang. He should have said the Briton was high-hatting him. When an American woman scornfully said that her fellow-countrymen submitted to Mr. Priestey's criti- cisms of us with “sadistic” cowardice, she was slip- |ping into the obnoxious argot. This type of tech- nical gargon is colorless, often meaningless—a “weary tossing about at tenth hand of certain words sup- posed to belong to a science of psychology.” ‘Why blame these stock phrases on America? They are an imported brand of slang. Freud, rath-| er than any Yankee, is the real villaln in this piece. Such pseudo-scientific slang is limited to a compar- |atively small class in America, and even they are already a bit weary of it. Debating De-Batting. (New York Herald Tribune) Bless the British! One could count on them to invent a problem to take the mind off continental collywobbles. The letter columns of “The London Times" are full of letters on de-batting. = What, they ask, can be done about bats in old churches? Some of the up-to-date curates recommend tear gas; others feel it inappropriate in a church, though after all tears in a church are nothing new. “The Spectator,” commenting on the debate, cries against the use of shotguns. “This method,” that respected paper declares, “is uneconomical, inhumane and bad for the sdcred edifice.” There again speaks the true Briton. De-bat the churches by all means, but don't be rough on bats. | One antiquarian recalls the Giraldus Cambren- sis, back in the twelfth century, solved the problem in a fashion which seems humane at least to the bats. He advocated buttering the beams from which the sleeping bats were seen hanging in the; daytime. The bats he predicted, slipping constant- ly out of bed, would eventually retire to less sacred and slippery homes. “The Spectator,” commentln(;t on this proposal, remarks that the retail price of butter must have been lower in those halcyon days, and reports that fantic bat-lovers attack the system on the ground of mental cruelty to the bats. , And, we venture to suggest, how about olfactory cruelty to the churchgoers? California Moves to Stabilize Mineral Production. (Engineering and Mining Journal) Stabilization of the oil industry of California is the objective of a bill under consideration by the Legislature of the State, providing for the creation | of a commission of six persons, comprising Lhel state superintendent of oil and gas and five mem- bers to be elected by the oil companies. It aims to legalize a pro-rating system, already in force. A second bill is designated to prevent waste of gas by excessive drilling. Limitation of output may be expected to in- sure more orderly production methods and the stabil- ization of marketing. Such efforts at scientific management connote control, which in turn implies the fixing of prices. The alternative has been well illustrated in the recent history of the oil industry duction costs, accumulation of unwieldy surpluses, demoralized prices, industrial and social disorganization. The California experiment will be watched with interest, in the hope that the results will prove helpful and suggestive to other mineral industries affected by tne prevailing marketing disorganization and lack of leadership direction. Ample moral justification exists in support of the legal attempt to be made in California to stabilize production and price, to remedy present chaotic conditions prevail- ing in one major commodity market in that state.
