He lifted ‘the, pml‘vsslonal boxing game from the mire |and ‘gave it new prestige, and was one of its greatest proponents in his own or any other age. He linked | the old, bare-fist mauler game with the new scien- tific sport of which he was an acknowledged master. He was a friend of books as well as a puncher of bodies. He won his distinctions and defended them in a manner that commanded the approval and commendation of ‘the sport-loving world. His name was never connected with any scandal. His battle record is clean and without blemish. He more than any other lifted the prize ring above the level of brutality and gave it title to renewed, whole- some interest. In so doing he made his name a household word throughout the lands where physical prowess and courage and honorable conduct are esteemed. His conquering of the mighty John L. Sullivan, the foremést exponent-of the-old school, gave him & renown that no subsequent circumstance could tarnish or dim. He will be remembered as one of the outstanding bright ornaments of a great tradition. Members of the jobless army converged at Olym- pia, Wash, protested against having to work for funds for relief of their wants. They wanted unem- ployment insurance from the State and a cash dole. Surely they did not speak for the many thousands of enforced idle persons of the State of Washing- ton whose plea has been for work and not charity. Governors’ Luncheon Club. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) Mr. Roosevelt's invitation to the Governors of the forty-eight States to meet with him at the gesture rather than a serious effort to solve some of the perplexing problems of Federal-State rela- Taking advantage of the presence of many Governors in Washington, the President-Elect seeks as a shock to the entire country.

Almost alone he exposed the in-| eases perpetrated in the Harding remmc‘ and it was due to his dogged tenacity in the face of public indifference and official discouragement | that the participants were driven into the open ‘md‘ punished for their misdeeds. Twice his party honored him by selecting him‘ as Chairman of its National Convention—in 1924 and‘ 1932. On both occasions he displayed his fairness and judicial impartiality, and his conduct of the; 1924 gathering in Madison ‘Square Garden won merited praise from all observers. His services in the Senate were not confined to| exposing the oil ring. Always he has upheld the| bright traditions of the Democratic Party by! consi supporting legislation and opposing that which was antagonistic to the best| interests of the public welfare. He was recognized | as one of the ablest and most fearless members | of the upper branch of Congress. He was one of| the most influential of the members of Congress. His advice was sought alone by colleagues of his own party but by Republicans who had come to admire his great, legal attainments, his upright personal character and his sound judgment. His selection by Gov. Roosevelt for head of the Departmn Justice was almost a foregone con- clusion from the fir He was accorded the posi- tion by practically every political observér, not omly because it would be sound politics to appoint him, nor that he was deserving of such reward at the hands of the new Administration, but by reason of his outstanding qualifications for the position. Thomas J. Walsh was a real statesman. He was a Scnator of the type that is fast disappearing in that he was a leader and moulder of public opinion rather than a supine follower of mob clamor. His death is a loss to the Roosevelt Administration and even more a loss to the whole nation. in the famous W progressive not nt of WELCOMING KA’S LAWMAKERS. Juneau is glad indeed to have the privilege of extending the hand of welcome to the members of the Eleventh Alaska Legislature which convenes in 60-day biennial session here next Monday morning. As guests of the city, its keys are theirs as long as they are within its gates. As makers of the laws of the Territory, they will be accorded every aid that local residents and local organizations can extend to them. Not all of their time will be occupied in unremit- ting .labor. There must be some relaxation and diversion. Juneau's citizenry will be delighted to provide means for both, as has been customary in past years. True, on occasion, local hospitality has been slightingly referred to as “blandishments” but not by any of the members of the Legislature. It has remained for some not connected with that body to so undertake to influence Legislators against those who would extend to them the ordinary courtesies usually shown to prominent visitors who have come among us. It is & credit to the good| sense and sane judgment of the ‘Legislators that the innuendoes have missed their mark. So, the| lawmakers composing the Eleventh Legislature will be shown every courtesy that has greeted their predecessors in office., It is a pleasure to welcome them, to help make their .stay pleasant and to Jighten, if we may, their labors for the good of the public welfare. Al POPULAR BULLETINS. In the three years 1930 to 1932 the United States Department of Agriculture received from farmers and housewives more than 6,700,000 requests for its 20 most popular bulletins Of the 20 “best sell 1 about home- making subjects. For instance, the one in greatest demand, Cenning Fruits-and Vegetables at Home, was requested by 739,275 people in the three-year period. Next in demand was one on clothes, Stain| = Removal from Fabrics, of which 691,750 copies were requested in the same period. Other bulletins for which the demand was nearly as great included Farm Poultry Raising, Home Bak- ing, Roses for the Home, and Caru of Food in the Home. are “GENTLEMAN JIM.” Such was the nickname bestowed by fans of an earlier generation on James J.

And there will not be time for a thor- |ough canvass of these problems at-the White House. |State governments is no small part a matter of good will, and to this end the Governors' Conference next month seems entirely worth while. The hope of important progress under Mr. Roose- velt rests, not so much upon his technical mastery men into accord and inducing them to cooperate The lack of this accord is precisely the difficulty that has obstructed progress in many lines in recent years. Already the President-Elect has shown his patience in hearing the views of countless men in all fields of endeavor. The social gathering of Governors next month will be inter- esting primarily as a fresh demonstration of Mr. Roosevelt’s technic of fostering cordial relations as the foundation of successful administration, Boy Nomads. (New York World-Telegram.) The United States Senate has appropriated $22,- 000,000 to keep the citizens training camps open all g boys. It is estimated |that there are from 145000 to 200,000 in the country. Apparently the boys will be trained as soldiers. Germany and Russia are handling this matter better. They have organized the youthful wanderers —the homeless boys—in camps where they may do useful work while learning. So far during the depression our cities, the States and nation, while doing work of admirable humanity in relieving the distress of unemployment, have given comparatively little attention to the constructive in the relief. Tens of thousands have been given work, but in most cases it has not been constructive work fitting into a constructive plan. The assumption, of course, has been that the de- pression will begin to let up and that the nation will slowly return to a condition identical to that from which it descended into the present bad times. While wishing and hoping, the various govern- ments, we believe, should begin to plan more solidly and constructively in the expenditure of all relief money, using it in a way which will cause it to be spent as often as possible. There is no need to train the nation’s 150,000 ‘or 200,000 wandering boys as soldiers. There is great need to train them in useful arts, to put them to building in useful ways. Russian Slave Labor. (Seattle Times.) Russia further broadens the gulf between herself and other nations by her latest drastic labor-con- scription law. - By ordering all peasants in her northern regions into timber concentration camps, Where they will be allocated like troops going into battle, she demonstrates how completely civil liberty has disappeared. Complaint comes from foreign interests in China that the Soviets are flooding Oriental markets with in Europe and America. With labor conscripted and paid what the State decrees—or not paid at all, apparently, if it so decides—it is impossible for free States to meet Russia on anything like even ground. It is an axiom in this country that no govern- ment can exist half slave and half free. Russia may have gone so far in the direction of Bolshevik autocracy that it cannot be considered now as even half free; but it is unthinkable that any people can be coerced indefinitely into working without remuneration of some sort. Moscow leaves the remainder of the world no alternative except commercial quarantine. Peoples will not submit passively to exploitation of their markets by foreigners whose system of production Every move like the one recently made By order of the Soviet overlords strengthens the case for those who hold firmly to the_belief that continued isolation of Russia, eco- tion"can follow, .
