F8 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 24, 1932.

For more than a year Dra has been broadcasting each wee at an earlier hour, and has built| up @ large radio audience. Ho r because of poor recepti r in the evening in Juneau, other parts of Alaska, he arranged the special Alaska pro- gram for a period that will insure good reception. - STURDEVANT ON INITIAL VISIT T0 TERRITORY A be broadcas start at 10| District Engineer Goes to| Westward and Will Re- turn in Two Weeks Enroute to Seward to inspect the small boat refuge harbor and Lowell Creek flood protection sys- tem, Col. C. L. Sturdevant, District Engineer of the Seattle Rivers and Harbors District, is enroute West on the steamer Aleutian. He is on his first official inspection trip to the Territoy. Col. Sturdevant will return here about September 6, and spend sev- eral days in Southeast Alaska look- ing over completed Rivers and Harbors projects and familiarizing himself with general conditions affecting his work. Alaska was attached to the Sea‘- tle district last month as a result of the transfer of the powers and duties of the Alaska Road Commis- slon to the Interior Department. Col. Sturdevant succeeded Maj. Malcolm Elliott as District En- gineer at that time as the result of the transfer of the latter, with all other Army officers serving on the Commission, from the Territory to various stations in the States. JUNEAU SPORTSMEN | IMPORT HUNT DOGS Charles Goldstein and G. E. Cleveland, two of Juneau's might- jest hunters, have made up their minds they are going to get their share of the birds in the hills. Perhaps not this year but next season anyway. They have started to train two English Labrador pups that arrived for them on the steamship Queen this week direct from North Da- kota. The pups, which are dead grass in color, are only months old but they have a long and distinguished pedigree and seem to know their stuff already. These are believed to be the| first importation of this breed of hunting dogs in this section. RETURNS HOME AFTER VACATION TRIP SOUTH James McNaughton of the B. M. Behrends Bank, returned home on hte Princess Louise last night afte: a vacation trip to the states lasting six weeks, his first visit outside in 4l years. Mr McNaughton took his auto south with him and hit the high- ways to California, his first visit to that state, attended the Olympic Games, saw everything else worth seeing, then motored mnorth to Seaitle again, remaining there for eight days before coming home. e — CROWD HUNGARIAN ASLYUMS seven | BUDAPEST — In one year the number of destitute children cared {ed President p‘OILITICS‘ By BYRON PRICE (Chief of Bureau, The Associated Press, Washington.) There are two schools of thought as to the political consequences of a Walker case postponement in New York. The remark heard most often |among politicians is that the in- tervention of the courts possibly delaying final action until efter the election, bids fair to rescue Gov. Pranklin D. Roosevelt from the necessity of making one of the most difficult decisions ever faced by a Presidential nominee. There are astute politicians who |do not agree. They see the Gov- ernor losing the great advantage they believe he would have gained |from a forceful, clear-cut decision, at once removing Mayor Walker from office if the evidence war- rants and laying down a ringing challenge to Tammany. GAINS OUTWEIGH LOSSES Doubtless the changed situation involves both debits and credits on ‘the Roosevelt political ledger, but the gains are far more ob- vious than the losses. It was plain, for instance, that whichever way the Governor jump- ed, he was in trouble. TIf he kept 'Walker in, he was certain to be accused of truckling to Tam- many; if he threw Walker out, he ran the risk of antagonizing Tammany. Conversely, if it now turns out that no decision is necessary un- til after election, the Democratic | nominee will have both sides sus- pended in air, and neither will have anything much against him. Presumably, whether he is elect- or not, he will re- mair Governor for a time after election day. Mayor Walker's friends throughout the campaign, therefore, will be looking wistfully to Albany, hopeful that the axe will not descend, and careful to do nothing that would make mat- ters worse; while the enemies of Walker and Tammany will see no cause to lose confidence. That is the way one group of political dopesters figures it out. THE OTHER SIDE OF IT The other vonclusion involves much less obvious elements of the situation, and is based on a sup- position—which somehow has gain- ed wide currency in political cir- cles—that when the courts inter- vened Gov. Roosevelt was getting ready to give the Mayor his walk- ing papers, Those who believe the court de- lay is robbing the Governor of a great opportunity reason thus: As to Tammany, it might not have been greatly offended at Wal- ker's enforced exit. Its leaders are far less provincial than they used to be; they now think in terms of national politics, where they for- merly cared only for control of the City government. They want a Democrat in the White House be- cause of the benefits they would expect to reap in Federal patron- age, and they know how greatly New York state could contribute Yo Democratic victory. They might be prevailed upon, in these circumstances, to regard Walker as only & small chip in a big game, let the Governor have the benefit of his ringing challenge |and thdn turn in and do their | best for him anyway. That would increase Roosevelt’s prestige, it is argued in those up- state counties where the coolness of Tammany was such an asset to Tiiden, Cleveland and Wilson, the only three Democrats who have carried New York State for Presi- dent since the Civil War. It would also greatly strengthen the Governor in other proverbial.
