Everyone should feel elation at fine vote cast. It has never been exceeded in any previous municipal election %nd, except for the| general election vote last November, was the largest| ever cast in the city in any balloting, the exceptionally THE HELLERICH BEVERAGE BILL. The Hellerich beer and wine bill, just introduced in the Legislature, is one of the most important pieces of legislation that will come before the Alaska lawmakers during the current session. While Mr. Hellerich modestly announced it was not intended as a finished measure, but more as a working model for the final system of regulating and controlling the sale and manufacture of legal beer and wine, it is really a pretty good bill. Basically it is sound. It does two things that are essential to its success. It doesn't surround the mechanics of purchasing with cumbersome and drastic regulations that would tend to discourage the consumer, nor does it impose a system of high-priced licenses and heavy taxes to make the beverages so high that bootlegging would thrive. On the contrary it does make beer and wine easily accessible to the consumer, and by keeping down license fees and taxes to modest proportions it makes cheap drinks possible. There are, of course, some alterations necessary to make it a more workable measure. The Judiciary Committees of the two branches, now studying the bill carefully, are competent to make these. But basically, they will find little to change. It may be necessary to tinker with the machinery to some extent so that the system will function to the sat- isfaction of the public. This should not take long, and by the time supplies of either beer or wine can be received here the law should be on the statute books. SCHOOL BILL VICTORY FOR EDUCA- TIONAL PROGRESS. Few measures of more far reaching importance and of greater interest to the Territory as a whole ~will be passed by the ‘Legislature during the current | session than the Shattuck measure providing for of the school system which has passed both houses and will become law as soon as a few _ minor differences are smoothed over and the bill is ~signed"by the Governor. ‘Commissioner ‘of Education Karnes, who appeared before a House Committee on another bill recently, was asked by members R AR / R ‘now and in future |that counts as to farm relief. Unobligated funds already appropriated for public buginess-like’ administration and \Mll‘woxk would be used, as well as existing departmental machinery, so that no new money (in case this economy day) is needed. Moreover, large dividends in better forests, less =zrosion, etc,, should follow,—a favorite theme. But there are values, too, in terms of men as well as of trees (whatever the truth of Kilmer’s poem.) There is the “moral and spiritual value” of such new cleanly jobs, in the taking of “a vast army” out into the open. And this is at least the theoretical advent of spring,—the same argument Moreover, the Ohio flood comes just in time to afford a neat object lesson. Hence it is engaging as well as plausible theorem which the President puts before Congress,—with the other two-thirds of his program still to come. It can at best make only.a dent in the idle iotal, but a sizeable one if successful. And none will refuse to wish the maximum success to this experiment of the $30-a-month recruits. Food for Minors. (New York Times.) Beer may come back as non-intoxicating. But it lalso seems destined to figure as the most serious menace with which youth can be brought in contact in our present civilization. The trend of the pro- posed State beer legislation everywhere is to prohibit its sale to minors. A minor for the purpose of not buying beer will be any one under 16, presumably. This means that a boy or girl under 16 may buy a ticket for the theatre and enjoy undisturbed the full and free dis- section of life in the raw as provided in such large chunks for the civilized appetite. They may freely go to the movies and enjoy the clean sweet air that breathes through every foot of celluloid. They may buy unhampered any frank book in an age of extremely outspoken books. They may be even en- couraged by teachers and parents to face themes and problems which only a few years ago would have been regarded as subversive and demoralizing. But for the purpose of buying a bottle of 3.05 beer in the grocery store they will be minors. Trotsky Boosts America. (New York Times.) Trotsky is not often found. seeing eye to eye with Stalin, but on one subject they do agree, and it will give much pleasure in this country. The exile of Prinkipo and the chief tenant of the Kremlin both think that the decline and fall of the United States is still a considerable distance away. This is contrary .to the fondest expecta- tions entertained by many of the Communist faith- ful here at home. The former Red War Lord has just told an Asso- ciated Press reporter that our present business and financial troubles are only an interlude in America’s irrestistible march to financial hegemony, which is a highbrow word meaning domination. Naturally, it is not his belief that the United States is permanently out of the woods. Deep-tangled capi- talism will get us yet some day with its inner contradictions, but that end is in the remote future, if one may judge from the whole tone of his re- marks. Trotsky's testimony is more weighty than Stalin’s, because with the latter it may be a case of the wish being father to the thought. Odd though it may seem, the Soviet rulers do not want to see Western capitalism go to smash just yet. They still need our decaying economic system to lend them money and engincers. Can we go the limit or will “withdrawals” from the breweries be limited?—(New York Sun.) replied El Isa Beth el Ain quickly “and if you are going to live in England—if you ever get there— you will live as a widow for this is Jules’ country and his home. His work is here, and henceforth he will live here.” “I'll discuss that with Jules, thank you,” replied Margaret cold- ly. “And while we are here, he I will not be left alone again. “And T intend to see him now,” added Margaret. “He is ill—he is sleeping.” “Then Tl wait until he wakes.” “Yes? Where will you wait? Shall Hassan take you back room?” “I'll wait here,” replied Margaret, “I'm sorry to intrude, but I won't leave this room until I see Jules.” “I used to talk like that when I was a girl,” smiled El Isa Beth el Ain, “I tell you I insist” et angrily, and encouraging hot anger that it might fight chill fear. “I insist on . . .” “I used to insist, at first,” said El Isa Beth el Ain, conversationd ally, as she, rose from her cushionsg and crossed to the door that had first foiled Margaret. “You were going to say you insist on remain- ing in this room? Well, I'll leave it.” And, almost without pausing, she opened the door and went out.
