ALASKA JUNEAU CONTIN PROGRESS. Juneau, ES MAXING The good, old Alaska the mainstay of | Juneau prosperity, continoe: aild up its surplus. And that surplus is one of the refreshing things in | industial Alaska. It is a reservoir of power that | will probably make the Alaska Juneau larger and thus | add to employment and payrolls. It is a source from which prospects in widely separatzd sections of the North may look with hope for develop- ment into mines, if they have it in them to become mines, for the Alaska Juneau management is con- stantly on the outlook for properiies that might be worked with profit. It has spent a lot of money in the last few years in prospecting and development where the indications were favorable. The Alaska Juneau is the reason above all others that causes people that come here, no matter from where, to say that Juneau is the brightest spot with the most promising outlook in the country. The people of this City are greatly indebted to the management of this company for the courage and ability displayed in its .development and the will to develop other properties if they can be dis- covered. The profits of the Alaska Juneau continue each to month to be near $150,000. The indications are that the 1931 profits will reach near or quite $1,700,000. SEARCHING FOR MOYLE AND ALLEN. People will watch the search for Dan Moyle nndl C. A. Allen without a large degree of hope. They are probably gon2. But there is a chance, and the missing aviators are entitled to that chance. search should be continued as leng as there is a chance that they are alive, If the flyers were heard near Lituya Bay last Tussday, they probably came down near the South- east Alaska coast, and it is barely possible that they reached shore. There is more than a possibility that some part or parts of the plane may drift to the shore, if they have not done so already, and be picked up. It is a pity that it is so, but it seems that this searching for flyers w!o have failed in some difficult undertaking is something that has come to remain. There is but one way that we can see to meet the situation and that is to search when occasion requires it. CANADIAN SALMON CONDITION DEPLOKABLE. The Canadian canned salmon industry in British Columbia is suffering from the effects of last sea- son’s large catch of which it is estimated approxi- mately 750,000 cases, cousisting chiefly of pinks are still in stock and unsold, states American Vice Consul Nelson P. Meeks at Vancouver, in a report submitted to the Department of Commerce. As a result only 25 can season, a decrease ol eries are in operation this over 50 per cent. in comparison with 1930, and little ~fiort is at present made to obtain the maximum catch of pinks. Very little export business is reported and that which is done is at unstable and unsatisfactory prices. According to figures furnished by the Dominion Department of Fisheries, the salmon pack in British Columbia for the season ended August 8, 1931, amounts to approximalely 382,604 cases as com- pared with 924,860 cases for the corresponding period in 1930. HOW iT WORK Smedley Butler of the Marines, who tried to con- viet a fellew officer for failure to show proper respect for the Volstead Act, will retire October 1. He failed to be designated commanding officer of the Marines, notwithstanding that he was the senior officer, so he, accepting the rebuke as it was prob- ably intended, will quit the service. Few, if any, tears will be shed. The working of the Prohibition law is peculiar in many ways. A high Treasury official in the be- ginning said that it was simply preposterous to attempt to enforce it literally. If all the officials, he said, tried in good faith to enforce the law as it reads, he would have all of his friends in jail—and would be lucky if he did not get there himself Never was a more outrageous proposition foisted upon a civilized ,country than the Eighteenth Amendment and the laws that have been enacted to enforce it. It is so silly that it is an interna- tional joke. It has discredited the good and | good faith of the American people. ROLLING YOUR OWN. Rolling your own, one of the favorite pastimes | of the American soldiers in the World War, is again gaining in popularity among smokers, according to the American Tobacco Company. Once more the | famous sack with its famillar tag bearing pi of the fearless bull which was carried into many a hard-fought battle on foreign soil in 1918 is peep- sense {think of him, Premier MacDonald | was |by drastic economies, The |, point for the year yesterday: American Can, il and (mmml Motors, International Harvester and United States Steel. However, we should worry. Alaska Juneau was strong. Postal receipts decrease and the postal deficit increases, than at any time in years. That is ind the country’s condition. There is a depr m‘\ ness but the money supply is large. ession in Whatever his former political associates might is looked upon by the world as the outstanding courageous citizen |of Great Britain and one of the world’s foremost tatesmen. laska Juneau seems to be well entrenched in the New York Stock Exchange. Its buyers pay little |attention to market slumps. MacDonald a States (Cincinnati Enquirer.) In one of the most dramatic episodes of recent history, Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald has his own party, in order that his country may sur- vive a perilous fiscal crisis. By rising above con- siderations of party and of personal advancement, the Laborite Premier has shown himself a states- man of high rank. Facing the crisis Sunday MacDonald’s position | unique. The leading bankers of the United gdam agreed to back the Government in the emergency only if the vast deficit were eliminated | including the reduction of doles to unemployed. MacDonald’s chief support, union labor, refused to follow him in this step. Turning, therefore, to Conservatives and Liberals the Premier deserted his own party, or rather the major part of it, and prepared to co-operate with the ablest leaders of the nation, irrespective of party. # The National Cabinet formed Monday, like the Coalition Cabinet of wartime, is a small body of the ablest available personalities. It is not expected to endure beyond the term of the fiscal crisis. But it has the tremendous responsibility of seeing Britain through its gravest period since the war. Interpreted broadly, the prasent effort of the new Cabinet is to secure the future of capitalism in Great Britain. The integrity of the pound sterling and the financial prestige of the London Government were at stake, and they were balanced against the demand of the Socialists for maintenance of the dole intact. Was the Labor Cabinet to act for its own party and class, and uphold the dole, or act for the nation and preserve the integrity of the currency and th2 nation’s finances? In other words, Socialism was asked to preserve Brit- ish capitalism. This question was a difficult one for the Pre- mier, for he is himself a sincere Socialist. more important than adherence to the tenets of the Labor Party, MacDonald reasoned, was the | preservation of the capitalistic economic system of the country. On this basis he was a “traitor” to his party in order to be loyal to the nation. This is the supreme test of statesmanship. Right Thinking vs. Right Doing. (New York Herald Tribune.) It seems to us that right-thinking citizens ought to stop talking about right-thinking citizens. When a man uses that expression he usually adds un- consciously, “of which number I am an example.” Right-thinking citizens are rare, if indeed they exist at all. For what, nor do we pause for reply, is right? If we knew, we'd tell every right-thinking citizen. In hjs Sunday sermon the Rev. Dr. Will H. Houghton said that the police had the support of “every right-thinking citizen.” . What the muddy-thinking editor thinks is that this country needs is a lot of right-doing citizens. For think- ing, as any crook will tell you, is hooey. Nor do we believe that the Rev. Dr. Houghton is a right-thinker when he says “The gangster is a coward as well as a criminal” That there are cowards in gangdom we believe, just as there are cowards in the army, the church, and the stage, not to add merchandising, journalism, law and agricul- ture. But many of the gangsters, in spite of their armaments and their shootings in the back are brave in many ways. The physical courage of some of them is enormous; and the consciousness of gulit that keeps most of us uncriminals is some- thing that does not inhibit the average gangster. Good Indians All (Port Angeles News.) Quillayute drums, once used to call the braves to defenses on James Island against the invading Makahs, rolled out a deafening invitation Wednes- day for Roland Hartley*to attend the official open- ing of the Olympic Highway August 26 and 27. Being noisy Indians, they attracted attention of the official family, and sat down to luncheon with his excellency. The event was a novel ad- vertising feature for the highway opening,” and the Governor was a good sport about it, playing his part well. The Quillayutes are a friendly tribe, ever anxions to co-perate with the whites. Just now they are expending every effort to see that the Kalahoch celebration is a success so far as Indian sports are concerned. The Indians deserve a vote of thanks for their advertising stunt. The primitive red man is catch- ing some of the enterprise of his modern white brothers. America’s resources in able men are under- estimated in the present bear market, but never- theless constitute a bulwark around which the hopes for esonomic recuperation legitimately rest. —(Seattle Post-Intelligencer.)

Morse developed Vic Frasier, big righthanded hurler, who practically nas been the salvation of the Box pitching staff this season. The White Sox wanted more of the same, The American league outfit re- cently spent $25,000 to get two addi- tional Morse products. They were Lou Garland, 210-pound right- hander, and Ralph Erickson, 190- pound southpaw. Garland, who represents $15,000 | was to report immediately, while Erickson, $10,000 product, is to don a White Sox uniform next spring. Garland, a big blond hurler, is the owner of a blinding fast ball, change of pace and a sharp-break- ing curve that has worried Texas league hitters all season. Although his record is not im- pressive—nine won and nine lost— {Munager Hap Morse is confident 1Garland not only will make the/ ‘ma)or league grade but will rank | with Frasier as a leading pitcher. | Garland was with Dallas in the| spring of 1930, but was turned: adrift.

Reaching only to the waist or exsj tending to the hipline in flared peplum effect, it is warm enough to be worn with snug wool street frocks until snow falls. The woman who dresses on a | limited allowance will find that its | abbreviated cut provides a thrifty way to salvage last winter's worn fur coat. ‘Astrakhan, galyak, seal and leop- ard are the favorite pelts for the short for jackets. Virtually all of them are designed with small roll collars or scarf effects which fit closely about the throat. | Sports models are generally de- signed along straight lines, but town coats vary from those which end in a snug fit at the belt to those flaring out at the hip bones. | Sleeves are often puffed a bit at the shoulder line. The jackets, which are generally worn with a little tilted hat trim- med with a band of the same fur, may match or contrast in color with the frock which accompanies them. A brown astrakhan jacket, de- signed with modified muttonleg sleeves was worn with a tobacco brown wool dress at the recent fall style exhibitions. A waistlength leopard jacket ac- companied a lapis luzuli blue frock, while a little flared hipbone jacket of black galyak was worn with a garnet red wool frock. Many man- nequins carried tiny barrel muffs of fur to match their jackets. Short jackets of rough pebbly- weave wool also promise to be pop- ular for early fall. These are de- | NOTE TO MODE |+ Pair Bring $25,000 from Chicago | Erickson's specialty is ball, delivered with an unusual arm | !! motion deceptive and baffling to the batt signed along lines similar to the Iur Jjackets and generally match the fmck in color. e | AT THE HOTELS T - e Gastineau E.
