OUGHT TO MAINTAIN CONTACT. Alaska will not be included in any regional rep- resentation on the re-organized advisory Commi:\smn! of Migratory Wild Fowl. Secretary Arthur M. Hyde of the Department of Agriculture, who killed Alaska’s farm experiment stations, and last Fall resmcml‘ the migratory wild fowl hunting season in the Terri- tory in such manner as to make it impossible for | many Alaskans to legally kill game needed for food purposes, finds that it wont be necessary for the | Territory to be represented since he already ke(’ps{‘ in touch with Alaskan game conditions through the Alaska Game Commission. There is no question that the local Commission is an ideal source of information. But the fact re- mains that it was not consulted about last Fall's “duck edict,” and its representations in the matter were pointedly ignored. It was to prevent the repe- tition of such incidents that the Junecau Chamber of Commerce petitioned Secretary Hyde to give the Terr y representation on his regional advisory board The importance of its extensive breeding grounds for wild fowl is great enough to justify such representation. However, if the request of the Chamber is sufficient to prod Washington into | keeping the Alaska Game Commission informed on such subjects, and to consult it before making ad- ditional re ctions on local game, it is not important that S y Hyde has other ideas about his own Commission’s makeup. HOLDS STRENGTH. ROOSEVELT but fou months left until the two big s name their candidates for the Presidency, U n Presidential nomination is assured for r, and Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt con- the strongest contender in the field for ‘The sniping campaign tinues to be the Democratic leadership, that developed early this winter has apparently left and the opposition to him continues to be split among the favorite sons of several States. No one of these has shown sufficient strength to threaten the New Yorker's position which, although not commanding, is more advantageous than that of any other possible choice of his party. A recent survey of the field, which is regarded as conservative, gave Gov. Roosevelt 678 out of 1,154 delegates to the National Convention. Favorite sons have 190 ad 286 are listed as doubtful. Under the two-thirds rule, he is about 90 votes short of having enough to insure his victory. But he has 2 majority following that tends to prevent any pre- convention consolidation for any other aspirant. His strength is derived mainly from the South and West. Such Eastern States as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Tllinois, Delaware, Missouri, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and West Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Virginia in the South are listed for some one else or as doubtful. His man- agers are apparenfly making no effort to claim States of which they are convinced they cannot logically expect to carry. There is sound political strategy behind that policy. To claim some State delegation at this time and have it a little later instruct for some other candidate would be em- barrassing and no amount of explanation of why it was lost could prevent it from weakening the candidate. Thus Gov. Roosevelt's supporters unques- tionably are wise to concede the opposition every- | thing that is reasonably doubtful. If later it de-| velops that some of these States instruct for him, gentiment for him will be augmented by the an- nouncement of a gain. Admittedly there is serious opposition in some quarters of the East to Gov. Roosevelt. This has not mitigated against him in the South and West. his fo unshaken, ance of Speaker Garner as a receptive candidate has not greatly altered the situation as yet. Un- doubtedly the Texas delegation will be instructed for him. Seasoned political leaders in the South and West, even though they might personally look with favor upon him as a Presidential candidate, are too wise in political history and too experienced in pre-convention strategy to be stampeded into the Garner camp. ADVERTISING AND ALASKA. The distinction between publicity and advertising, and the accomplishments of the latter for Alaska, are set forth in the Cordova Times in a recent article by Edson R. Waite, of Shawnee, Okla- homa, who, under the heading, “Did You Ever Stop Publicity is not advertising. Publicity made Alaska a glamorous land of ice and snow and Eskimos. Rationalized advertising, even with- in the modest means available to 60,000 Alaskans inhabiting a country one-fifth as large as the entire continental United States, has made Alaska a land of beauty, industry and great future promise Advertising has sent to all parts of the world the canned salmon that furnishes Alaska its largest industry.

In company with “Three Restless Heads” there is published a biogra- pny, “James Branch Cabell” by Carl Van Doren, which is an apprecia- tive and incisive analysis of the writer and his work.
