The whole community was shocked Sunday over the tragic death of John Key, young business man of this city, as the result of his accidental shooting by a hunting companion and close friend. Although a comparatively recent comer in Juneau, Mr. Key had made a large number of friends through his | upright character and lovable disposition., Their deep sympathy, indeed the sympathy of the entire community, is extended to Mrs. Key, a bride of a few short months. Nor is it any the less extended to Mr. Burr Johnson who was the innocent cause of the fatal tragedy. Only time can assuage sthe great grief of either, words do not avail for that purpose. There is a lesson in the tragic death of Mr. XKey. It brings home forcibly to everyone the truth of the assertion that no amount of caution, no matter how extreme, is too great to take in the handling of firearms. Hunters, particularly those engaged in deer hunting in the tangled growths of local forests, cannot be too careful. Each year, the death list, in Alaska as elsewhere, from hunting is too heavy. It can and must be lessened. And the only way to do it is for every hunter to fire only after he has made sure that the thing he is aiming at is the game animal he seeks. There are many don'ts in the lexicon of the sportsman. The most important for the man in the woods is, don't fire at something moving in the brush. See definitely what it is before you shoot. THE SOUTHEAST ALASKA FAIR. Nothing has served to so demonstrate the absence of any real depression here as the announce- ment recently of the plans of the Southeastern Alaska Fair Association for its annual Fair and carnival which will open in this city on September 13, for a run of four days. As was the case last year, the Fair probably will be held without financial assistance from the Territory. In 1932, Gov. Parks called attention to the necessity for conserving Territorial funds for the absolute essentials of government and funds for the fairs held in each Division were withheld. Financial conditions in the Territorial treasury have not materially improved since then and again funds will not be available for this activity. Last year's Fair was successful without that aid. It paid its own way, presented a very creditable collection of exhibits, and furnished a lot of clean, wholesome amusement to the community and its visitors. Over a period of years, it has become an established institution. It is an asset to the town, and a fine thing for all of Southeast Alaska. It should be as well patronized this year as in former years. The management expects as wide a variety of displays as at any former occasion. It has lined up an excellent entertainment program. The usual concessions will be as numerous as ever. Let's all get ready for the 1933 edition of the Southeast Alaska Fair. GANDHI ARRESTED TO GIVE MODERATES CHANCE. The British authorities in India, in their latest arrest of Mahatma Gandhi, were merely following a course that had already worked out to their sat- isfaction in earlier years. Back in 1922, after a two- year non-cooperation plan that upset the British plans for giving to India a greated degree of self- government, he was arrested. While for a time this seemed to augment his following, after two years of imprionment he was released to find his influ- ence as a political leader practically destroyed. A year later he announced his intention of retiring from public life. But five years later, in 1930, he launched his second non-cooperation movement that carried him to heighths well above that attained in his first efforts. Then followed another arrest. His power was again checked and when he was released it continued to ebb. A majority of the Indian Con- gress is on record as being willing to compromise with the British Government and try out its pro- posed self-government scheme. But Gandhi's elo- quence blocked the compromise. Then came his latest detention in jall. This is reported to have left the Hindu national opinion almost unmoved. It is the hope of the British that his arrest will give the moderate Indian leaders a chance to line up the Congress behind the compromise proposal. HUGE ISSUE IS OVERSUBSCRIBED. Nothing more demonstrates the public confidence in the stability of the United States and the success of Mr. Roosevelt’s Administration than the manner in which the country’s investors received the $850,000,000 bond issue that was recently offered by the Treasury Department. The offering was oversubscribed within a few days. Instead of closing the issue, however, the ' Treasury announced it would keep its books open for late subscribers, and indications are that the final sale would exceed $1,000,000,000. Short term notes of $950,000,000, bearing a higher interest rate {than the new bonds, mature this month and next and the proceeds of the sale will be used to retire these at a substantial saving in the carrying charge to the Government. the so-called floating debt into long-term securities is regarded as desirable by the Government since it away with the necessity for constant refinancing. Success of the issue—the first since 1931—prom- ises well the future of the Admiistration’s program which, to put into full effect, will require large-scale borrowing. Conversion of does for A Canadian economist is out with a statement that the United States needs a new stimulant. Well, we are approaching the day when we can get it 'as fast as the States get a whack at the Eighteenth j Amendment. A Chicago man has been buried alive for more than 60 days. He'll have a lot of reading to do to catch up on all those NRA codes. Curbing Speculation. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) In contrast to the many reckless proposals made by politicians and other critics of our speculative machinery, the new rulings of the New York Stock Exchange are at once sensible and effective. The {most important curb placed on security trading yesterday is the requirement that brokers carry no margin accounts below 50 per cent for small trad- ers or below 30 per cent for accounts above $5,000. This action, as was urged in these columns at the time of the market break a fortnight ago, is cal- culated to stabilize security prices and to reduce the amount of sheer gambling. The further requirement that pools and syndi- cates must provide full information every week is likewise desirable. If it does nothing else it will provide data on which to determine to what extent ithe prices of securities are “manipulated,” contrary to the basic idea of a free capital market. There have been two primary factors preventing the security markets from realizing their proper function as free markets to register the concurrent forces of demand and supply. One factor was the great volume of forced selling -caused by even a slight break in prices. That forced selling traces back directly to the large volume of buying on small margins. The other factor hampering the free operation of the stock markets has been the manipulation of prices by trading pools, a condi- tion made possible by the secretiveness of their operations. Thus the new regulations at New York are de- signed to correct two major abuses. Although they were interpreted as bearish news when announced, they are in fact very encouraging news. Properly ienforced they should serve to prevent the extreme upward and downward swings of security prices which have endangered economic recovery, and should prevent also the artificial pegging of certain prices at values not justified by the free play of demand and supply. It is worth noting that the |new rules are curbs on “speculation,” but not on “investment.” Winter in Sight. (Anchorage Times.) The first week in August with its ripening vege- tation brings the first warning of approaching Winter, and the reminder of all provident Alaskans to prepare accordingly. Nature broeks no interference with her inexorable laws in these latitudes. In the mighty Yukon Valley and a thousand other inland vales Winter will clamp down a frigid lid for more than half the year, and along the Alaska coast facing the Pacific prepara- tions must be made to meet conditions that require thoughtful planning. Such vocations as may be pursued in wlnter, including trapping and certain phases of mining, can be followed to advantage only by getting ready in this open season. Aside from activities attendant upon these basic conditions, the wary also will not be found tardy in preparation. A great deal is being heard about Government plans for expenditure of a portion of the Federal public works funds in Alaska. If such money is to be distributed in Alaska this year the funds will have to be forthcoming in mighty short order: Only a few weeks remain for outdoor work on most roads or in building or other construction enterprises. Winter is not far away, and those who will face it to best advantage will not fail to make the most of every moment of the present month in prepara- tion. The Future Price Level. (The St. Paul Pioneer Press.) Last May 7 President Roosevelt announced in his message to the country that the powers of inflation given him by the 'special session of Con- gress will be used “when, as and if it may be necessary to accomplish the purpose * * * of rais- ing commodity prices to such an extent that those who have borrowed money will, on the average, be able to repay that money in the same kind of dollar they borrowed.” If there is confusion as to the policy of the Administration concerning prices, therefopé, the fault lies with those who are confused. It iy true that President Roosevelt has never officially declared the precise point or level of prices at which his cdn~ dition will be met. But two propositions would appear to be plain. The first is that the Administration means to use its powers to whatever extent may be necessary to raise prices to this desired point. The second is that the desired point had not yet been reached when the mid-July break occurred, since the Ad- ministration showed no intention then of stabilizing the dollar or checking the rise.
