Repeal of the Eighteenth Amencment, urged by President Roosevelt for immediate action, will mean more than $250,000,000 annually in Federal liquor taxes, according to Director of the Budget Douglas. How this might help to lesson other proposed Federal tax burdens, including increased income| taxes, ought to be plain to everybody. This relief can be assured by the end of the present year, if in the next seven months 28 States follow the lead of Michigan, Wisconsin, Rhode Island, Wyoming, New Jersey, New York, Nevada and Delaware in setting about the business of ratifying Prohibition repeal. Only eight States so far have had the question up before the voters. In each of them, the vote for repeal has exceeded preliminary estimates by large proportions. This month six more States will render their decisions on the issue. If the vote is as decisive as that of those already acting, finis will be written to National Prohibition within the year. HOLZHEIMER FOR UNITED STATES ATTORNEY. Judge William A. Holzheimer, of Ketchikan, who was nominated recently for United States Attorney for the First Division of Alaska, is too well known throughout the Division and Alaska to need introduction. For many years a member of the Washington State Bar he came to Alaska almost 20 years ago and has made it his home ever since. He was admitted to the bar and resided here for sometime. He served as United States District Judge in the Second Division under the seqond Wilson Administration and made an excellent record as a jurist. Upon his retirement from the bench he removed to Ketchikan to practice Jaw. In recent years he has served as City Clerk with satisfaction to the community there and credit to himself. He is a good lawyer, a fine citizen and a loyal Democrat. His confirmation ought to be a matter of but a few days. Juneau will welcome him and Mrs. Holzheimer when they return to resume their interrupted residence in this city. now a resident NEW COMMISSIONER OF INDIAN AFFAIRS. John Collier, who recently was sworn in as Com- missioner of Indian Affairs, was born in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1884. His academic training was at Columbia University in New York and the College of France in Paris. In 1907 he became a staff mem- ber of the Peoples Institute in New York City. Under that assignment he helped organize, in 1910, the National Board of Review of Motion Pictures and was its general secretary for.four years. He was an organizer of the National Community Center Asociation founded in 1915, was its first secretary and later its president. He was the director of the national training school for com- munity centers from 1915 to 1919, In 1916 he helped to organize and served on the Board of Directors of the Child’s Health Organization, later the Ameri- can Child Health Association. In 1919 he went to California where he became Director of Community Organization, a position under the State Government. In 1920 he began traveling among and studying the Indians of the Southwest. In 1923 the American Indian Defense Association was organized and Mr. Collier was made its executive secretary. He held that position until his appointment as Commissioner of Indian Affairs. In it he studied most of the problems involved in Government administration of Indian Affairs. He was severely critical of many policies adopted by the Indian Service during the past decae. The knowledge he gained in his extensive studies and travels incident thereto will stand him in good stead in his new position. Mr. Collier has very definite ideas about the .Government’s responsibility to the Indians. In a statement issued at the time he took office he set forth some of them. Among other things he said: At the present time, when large reor- ganizations of the Federal Executive depart- ments are being undertaken, it should be easier than it has been in the past to bring to the help of the Indians many Government services which are peeting the needs of the general public. I refer, for example, to the health service of the Federal Government outside of the Indian Bureau, the general reclamation and forestry services, the agri- cultural organization services which are available to the States and counties, and the rural credit facilities which are being maintained and expanded at the present time. This, however, does not mean that Commissioner administration to the States and counties, or have the Federal Government walk away from its re- | Dimond bills for local control of the fisheries, fur | few friends. the wk. corner around which osperity has been {hiding. But it was Franklin D. and not Herbert >. who finally solved the mystery of its location. Anotrer record breaking attendance at yester- day's meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, which had announced resumption of consideration of the and game, attested to the deep interest that is felt here in those subjects. Due to the unexpected attendance of so many out of town notables, no action could be taken. In deferring them until next week, another overflow meeting is assured. Friends Worth While. (Daily Journal of Commerce, Seattle.) This world in which we live is peopled with millions of strangers, many acquaintances, but very Strangers may be the source of much pleasure for us, as perhaps are acquaintances, and often a passing moment with one many afford us a 'nmew perspective and result in genuine good. Strangers come, linger and as they pass leave us with a foreign vista, a strange experience that takes us, for the moment, out of what may be a cramping environment. Ofter the memory of them lingers long. Acquaintances we tolerate in their moods, whether they strike a responsive chord in us or not. It is their privilege, but usually they may be counted as of the stuff that builds re- membrances that live and give us memory moments to be treasured. There are friends and friends, and he is indeed fortunate who has friends who understand; friends who step out of their way to say his work is being well performed; friends unselfish enough to lay aside their own tools to recognize the ability with| which you wield your own. Fortunate is he who has friends who are big enough to subordinate the | deside to harp and criticise. It has been said that| a real friend is one with whom you can be your real self. Your soul can go naked with him. He seems to ask that you only be what you are. He does not want you to be better or worse. When you are with him, you feel as a prisoner feels who has been declared innocent. You do not have to be on your guard. You can say what you think, as long as it is genuinely you. He understands| those conditions in your nature that lead others to| misjudge you. With him you can, so to speak, take off your coat and loosen your collar. You can air your little vagaries and absurdities, and in opening them up to him they are lost—disolved in the ocean of his loyalty. He is one with whom you dare be yourself. Sincerity, helpfulness and sympathy—these we find in our real friends, and those qualities they have the right to expect us to possess. Friends are those made of metal that rings truest when cast down the hardest, for it is meant of staunch friendships that the staunchness shall be tested. Out of the crucible of the world's emotions,| scorched by fire and seared by adversity, comes once in a great while that bead of worth more precious than that brought from ores, flux and acid of the chemist's golden assay—true friendship. When you find it, treasure it, for it does not come often. A Plea for Maladjustment. (New York Herald-Tribune.) One of the narcotic notions of our day has been assailed in “The Smith Alumnae Quarterly” by Dr. Julius Seelye Bixler, professor of religion and | Biblical literature at that college. Were he not as| well the father of four, Professor Bixler would scarcely dare to speak as he does, for the aspira- tion he urges has probably never been printed in a family newspaper. Pointing out that the sooth- ing word ‘“adjusted” was stolen from genuine phychology to be used in ways never dreamed of in any science, he decries its smugness, its fat satisfaction, its upholstered inertia, and has the boldness to ask: “May it not be well for us definite- ly to take ‘maladjustment’ as our ideal, realizing that religion as its best has always meant a lack of adjustment to the present status and a reach- ing out?” Granting that to a psychologist adjust- ment is the organization of emotional life along harmonious lines to leave the individual free for independent creative effort, he laments that be- cause the term sounded so comfortable and con- tented “it was at once gladly accepted as meaning that the end of life .is the attainment of a state where liftle or no exertion is required” So he pleads, let us have maladjustment for our children! At this time of year it is traditional to assure dissenting graduates that, no matter how they doubt it now, they will soon be like their forebears. Let them be indulged, for they, too, will settle down and “adjust” themselves. . No use to butt your head against a stone wall, and all that. Domestic cares will tame those who are not hopelessly “mal- adjusted,” and they will discover the peace of stodginess. They will recognize that there has never been a time when corruption, misgovernment, vice, disease and poverty did not exist, and will “accept” as those before them have done. Hasn't all this been going on very much the same for no one knows how long? It cannot be denied that for a million years, roughly, maturity has been passing the buck to its offspring and posterity has adjusted itself—save in material ways—to much the state it found. When in a blistering, a comprehensively insulting article in “The American Mercury” Ralph Adams Cram insists that mankind in the mass has not changed, essentially, since neolithic times and still shows no signs of impatience with prehistoric standards, he is not heard above the general rustle of adjust- ment to Stone Age evils. Nor will many under- stand why a professor of religion should desire maladjustment for his ‘children. What can he mean by saying “if they are properly maladjusted they -will be truly religious”?
