Judson yesterday when he was elected Mayor of Juneau for the sixth suc- cessive term by a majority of only a little less than two to one. His vote was 630 to 362 for his op- ponent. Mayor Judson's Councilmanic ticket was swept into office with him by substantial majorities. The Citizens’ Ticket carried all three of the City's precincts, except that one Councilmanic candidate, Councilman George, ran behind a few votes in the third precinct. Wallis S. George and Henry Messer- schmidt, the only members of the old Council who were candidates for re-election, were receiving 103 and 186 majorities respectively. The result was an emphatic endorsement of the present Administration. The That was a municipal government next year will have but one new man in its personnel—Ralph H Beistline—and he has served on the Council in the past and is therefore not untried. In addition to Mayor Judson and Councilmen George, Messer- schmidt and Beistline, elected yesterday, there will be "the hold-over Councilmen, Gunnar Blomgren, John Green and Emil Krause M. L .Merritt was re-elected to the School Board on, which will continue the present new without oppositi school Administration in office. The affairs of the City, and its schools, will be in the hands of capable men who have been tried and, weighed" in the balance, have not been Tound wanting. The defeat of the ordinance chise for a central heating plant was not unexpect- ed. The times are such as o tisr to the average voter. However, the residents of the second precinct, who would have been affected most by the proposed plant, gave it a substantial major- ity. The election was by no means a repudiation of | the candidates on the People’s Ticket. The sub- stantial support they received was a testimonial to their worth and popularity. They were simply up against a good administration—one that the people approve. That was their unsurmountable obstacle. granting a AGREEABLE NEWS The arrival of Anscel C. Eckmann, Vice-President and General Manager of the Alaska Southern Air- ways, and A. B. Hayes, Juneau manager of the com- Ppany, with the plane Chichagof, and Mr. Eckmann's announcement that another plane, the Baranof, will | arrive here within six weeks make agreeable news. | The Chichagof made a fine trip from Seattle to Ju- | neau, and will be baséd here for the remainder of the season. Juneau will be headquarters for the Alaska Southern Airways, and it will give Southeast Alaska first class air service. Its planes are staunch, high-powered and high-speed which, with first-class pilots, guarantess safety and rapid service. Mr. Eckmann, in charge of the Alaska Southern Airways, is Southeast Alaska's best known and most popular aviator. He has spent several years here in Southeast Alaska, and his friends are legion. Mr. Hayes, who comes to Juneau as local manager, is also well known and popular here. He was here throughout last season with the now defunct Alaska- | tion, essary.

This is encouraging. It means that the work of the bureau will proceed more smoothly and satisfactor- ily than is pomhle with new workers going into the field every Y But the bureau is not stopping at the reten- tion of teachers and other workers who desire to continue in the service. It is insisting that its personnel be thoroughly equipped to meet the re- quirements of Alaska conditions and to that end is urging workers to raise the standard of their educational qualifications by correspondence or through residence at a college in order that it will not be necessary to make apologies for the educa- tional limitations of those few appointees who do {not now measure up to rcquirements. It is pointed out in the bulletin that almost one thousand ap- | plications for positions in the service have been eceived since last July but it is the policy to make as few changes in personnel as possible believing that minimum turnover means maximum results. The Tax omw Beer (Cincinnati Enquirer) the standpoint of balancing the budget with least disturbances to business, the proposed |legalization of light beer and its taxation have many advantages, as we pointed out in these columns yesterday. From a wholly different stand- point, that of combatting organized crime, such a step is like-wise desirable, Lawlessness and crime have in the last few years especially, become a business, a gigantic rack- et. Murder and robbery and kidnaping are not the objects of that racket, but an incident in its lefticient administration. The real purpose of the iracket is to make money just like any legitimate business. ing process is in selling things men and women want, but which are prohibited to honest dealers. Thus alcoholic liquors, gambling and prosti- tution are the foundation stones of the organized |erime rings which form the invisible government of {all to many American cities. We learned from the exposure of the Capone and other gangs in Chi- cago that these invisible governments are operated a dollars and cents basis, trading in goods barred by law but desired by most men. We learned also from that investigation that the sale of beer is the major source of revenues for racketeering gangs. Other things enter the picture {but without the vast public thirst for beer the profits of the racketeer would be trifling, and his power in polmcs and business correspondingly small. Restoration of light beer and a tax upon it would at once take most of the profit out of law {violation and turn that profit into the channels of |honest business and government. At a time when Ithe public treasury and business both need support, and cannot stand the drain of wealth into channels lof crime, this measure ought to be a genuine as- {sistance to economic recovery.
