The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the ase for republication of all news dispatches credited to it or mot otherwise credited in this paper and also the local news published herein ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION MR. SHOUSE DOES WELL. Jouett Shouse, Chairman of the Democratic Jational Committee, praises as statesmanlike and courageous President Hoover's reparations and wa debt moratorium. Mr. Shouse was fair to the point of language but was not that when one does the use he believes of generosity in inept. Evidently anything it ought to be well done. He did it well and without reservations. It is a courageous and | statesmanlike thing the President proposes. ‘When one considers the billion dollar deficit in the treasury and the predictions that it will be added to by another billion by the end of the next fiscal year | it takes a lot of courage to extend even for a year | the payment of $250,000,000 that is owing to our treasury If predictions are authentic and President’s plans are carried out the deficit in an- other year will amount to $2,250,000,000 or more. That is not a pretty picture for the President to face while in the midst of a campaign for renom- ination and re-election, and it requires bravery to do so. It is hot often that we find party organization leaders as generous and fair as Mr. Shouse has been in this case. It is too bad that §t is so. Praiss duly earned by the opposition ought to be freely bestowed, and Mr. Shouse did, as all party leaders ought to do. JEFFERSON D TIME’S CHANGE. [Appropos of the near approach of the Fourth of July the following well considered editorial in the St Paul Pioneer-Press, published on Jefferson's last April 13, is timely. Thomas Jefferson suggested when the people prepare to celebrate the adoption of the Declaration of Inde- pendence of which he was the author.] Thomas Jefferson was distinguished among his contemporaries for an uncanny capacity to plumb the future. Times without number the foresight of Jefferson enabled him to predict the course of his- tory. And yet, it is doubtful if even his prophetic vision could have enabled him to imagine the pres- ent-day offspring of the National Government in the creation of which he played so large a part. A sturdy individualism was the ideal of Jeffer- son. His beliefs and those of his party were the doctrines of agriculturists, and particularists, devoted to their own localities, their own States and their individual rights and liberties. The power of the State in any form was a thing of evil and to be resisted” “That country is governed best which is governed least” aptly summarized their code. Out of such sentiments there emerged the foundations of the national character. Men felt that “the law swept arcund each citizen a wide circle of individual rights into which no government, could intrude except at its peril.” Such was the political faith of a country rural in its habits and thought. Jefferson mistrusted large centers of population and esteemed a society com<; posed of planters, farmers and small traders, as the bulwark of republican government. Jefferson may have foreseen that the Colonies could not forever remain essentially agricultural in industry or society. But it is doubtful if he or the others who labored with him Imagined that industry would ever so largely predominate the, interests of the United States. To cope with this condition the functions of the State have been multiplied and rights and State or Federal, | A THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, TUESDAY, JUNE 30, 1931. AW to a new condition | of society. These changes, thes incidence of which has been confined largely to the years after the Civil War, have so altered American Government as to make it hardly recognizable as the same fabric that was once so frequently and plainly marked by Jeffersonian individualism and opposition to cen- tralized authority. The difficulties of unemployment and deépression, multiplied in our large centers of population and ‘])‘C\l]uh to an industrialized community, confirm Jefferson’s apprehensions as to the evils of urban society. But, however, the transformation from a rural to an industrial state may be deplored, its problems are not to be solved by regretting their | | cessively narrowed to conform existence. The change has been inevitable and the| colonies of the Atlantic Coast with their three | million people could not have been expanded into a | by one hundred and twenty millions without aban- doning the social structure of an agricultural com- munity. And tremendous as the revolution has been it by no means has outlawed the political philosophy gram of national expansion and has proved him not only one of the world’s greatest political philoso- | phers but one of America’s most practical and | successful statesmen. | It is seldom in the history of men or nations 'that the same lofty idealism is combined with (the sound realism he brought to bear in the con- sideration of government affairs. When modern statesmanship focuses upon economic problems the intellect and ideals that Jefferson directed to the| soltion of political difficulties, the “rights of men” will acquire a new meaning and industrial society achieve a form more hospitable to human happiness | and progress than it has in the past. | President Hoover intimates that we cannot exer- cise a Caribbean hurricane by statutory law. does he not apply that theory to Prohibition? Why A Pacific Flight. the | | (New York Times) Colonel Lindbergh has been so uniformly suc- cessful in his flights over the Atlantic, the Carib-| bean, in Mexico and Central and South America, that when he announces a plan to fly across the Pacific and tour Japan and China, there will be general belief that his new adventure is practicable. Mrs. Lindbergh is to be his companion. She has accompanied him on long-distance flights. The| route by way of the Northern Pacific and the Alas- kan archipelago will of course be taken It is not free from danger. Yet Lieutenant Smith and his| Army fliers overcame the difficulties, and two of the planes used were brought back in almost per- fect condition after a complete circuit of the world. The Lindberghs will not encounter such severe weather as imperiled the army expedition between Sitka and the landfall in Japan. It was early in April, 1924, when the Army officers entered upon the Alaskan part of their pioneer journey. Between Sitka and Seward they flew through almost con- tinuous snow squalls. From May 3 to 9 the expedi- tion lay over in the Aleutians. Fog, snow and high winds were frequent in the Kurile Islands and along the Asiatic coast. Hittokappu, Japan, was reached on May 19, forty days after leaving Sitka. If Col- onel Lindbergh follows the same route in the sum- mer, he will escape such rigorous experiences. It is said he will take “every safety precaution” and pro-| ceed methodically to his destination in Japan. With| the aid of the State Department, he should have the cooperation of the Japanese authorities and of the Russian and Chinese at those places where he| desires to make a landing. The whole world will | be interested in the adventure, and commercial avi-' ation will be advanced by its successful conclusion.
