ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. HIGH PRAISE, INDEED. The praise bestowed upon Frank T. Bell, United States Commissioner of Fisheries, and Alaska Agent L. G. Wingard by Mr. Bez and other cannery operators of this district is well warranted. It is not necessary to compare the present regime in the Bureau of Fisheries with any that has preceded it in order to give credit to it. The general satis- faction of fishermen of all classes as well as the evident contentment of the packers attest to the success of Mr. Bell's policies of humanizing the administration of Alaska's greatest resource — the salmon fishery. Of course, not everyone is going to be pleased. That cannot be expected in the administration of a resource of such vital importance as the salmon fishery of Alaska is. That a majority of those connected with the industry, whether fisherman or owner, are well pleased with what they recognize as a “new deal” is demonstrated beyond all doubt. | Two things have been outstanding in the admin- istration of Commissioner Bell. He not merely promised to take the human element into con- sideration, he has actually lived up to that promise, making it possible for fishermen to engage in their irade to a much larger degree than has been pos- sible for several years. It has meant many thou- sands of dollars to Alaska's fishing population in the first season under him. The second and not less important action, has been the manner in which Mr. Wingard has maintained a close observation of actual status of the pink salmon runs in South- east Alaska in recent weeks. Continuously in the field, he has been in poéluon to ask his chief for, and to get from him, extensions of the fishing season that not only materially helped the packers but equally benefiteu the fishermen. And this was done without injurying the supply of fish needed to seed the spawning beds. That the extensions were not granted haphazarly or without justification is attested to by every canner and fishermen as well. It is also demon- strated by the refusal of Mr. Wingard to recommend | a second extension in the Southern district after the failure of the fish run to appear at the proper time. ‘The Bureau of Fisheries under its new leader- ship has made a most auspicious beginning during the first year. And one of the most significant of its accomplishments is the fact that it has instilled confidence in Alaskans that they can get a fair hearing and a square deal on all matters pertaining to the fisheries. This attitude in the Territory will undoubtedly make the work of Com- missioner Bell easier next year and in the years to come. BATTLE OF GOTHAM. New York’s mayoralty contest this year is at- tracting more attention throughout the nation than any happening in that city since the Seabury inquiry last year, involving the Tammany organization, and that directly caused the retirement of Mayor James J. (Jimmy) Walker under fire. Indeed, the present “Battle of Gotham” is a direct result of the Walker incident. Had the Seabury inquiry been fruitless and Mayor Walker retained his seat to the epd of his term this year, the election of a Chief Executive for America’s greatest city would have been more or less & cut and dried affair. It will be anything but that now. The entry of former Representative Fiorello M. LaGuardia in the race as the Fusionist candidate assured plenty of action. Rated by the old guard Republicans as a radical, one-time Socialist and more recently an Independent Republican, anything he is connect- ed with politically spells plenty of action and excite- ment galore. Four years ago he opposed Mr. Walker, running on the Republican ticket. He was beaten by some 500,000 votes. He has served in Congress six terms, 1917 to 1921, and 1928 to 1933. He was beaten by a Democrat in last November's election. LaGuardla’'s nomination was practically forced by Judge Seabury whose handling of the inquiry last Summer drove Mayor Walker to France in retire- ment. The first choice of most New Yorkers was Gov. Alfred E. Smith but he would have nothing to do with it. Other Democratic leaders, not af- fillated with Tammany Hall, were offered the Fusionist backing, but they, {00, declined. Gen. John F. O'Ryan, Commander of the famous 27th Division of the A. E. F., and prominent New York attorney, was offered the nomination by the Whitman faction and conditionally accepted it. Judge Seabury wrath- ly termed this a “deal with Tammany” and refused his support. Gen. O'Ryan then declined the offer and the choice went to LaGuardia. sins of the Tammany Tiger will be issue by the Fusionists.

Observers believe the Fusionists have a chance to win. If they do it will the first time in 20 years. Back in 1913, John Purroy Mitchell was elected by the Fusionists over the Tammany candidate and they hope to repeat that success again this year. ONTARIO HIT BY WORLD'’S FAIR. The Century of Plogrpss Exposition, attracting millions of visitors to Chicago this Summer, is not so highly regarded across the border in Canada The wonders of science, the marvels of a mechanical and scientific age, have proved to be the most serfous opposition that the liquor business of the Province of Ontario has encountered to date. Offic- ials of that Province estimate in round figures that the Fair has deprived it of $1,000,000 in net porfits. The total for the year will be about $5,000,000, as compared to $6,000,000 for 1932. The decline is attributed directly to a sharp drop in tourist traffic. Instead of spending their vacations in | Canada this year, thousands of Americans are “doing the Fair.” Four years ago, or before the depression, Ontario’s net profit from the liquor business was ($8,000,000. By this time next year, liquor in Canada | will have ceased to be one of the main attractions | for Americans on vacation. | Smedley Butler's .scheme to end racketeering is!

The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics has com- pleted a special study of price trends during the depression. It shows how mistaken is the theory that all prices follow approximately the same gen- eral curve, whose upward or downward course is determined by some set of influences readily identi- fied, such as changes in the amount of currency in circulation. For the trends revealed by this study are complex and highly varied. The record naturally falls into two sections. Be- tween June, 1929, when a number of important prices quietly turned down on the eve of the stock market panic, and February, 1933, when a long- threatened banking crisis finally developed, the average level of 784 commodities on the Labor| Bureau's list declined by 37.2 per cent. But this average conceals a great diversity in individual cases. ing this whole period of deflation. advanced. The other 715 fell, but by percentages which varied greatly. There were forty-eight com- modities which declined by less than 10 per cent and seven which dropped by more than 80. Losses suffered by the remainder ran the gamut between | \these figures. As a group, farm products suffered | most severely. In February of this year their aver- | age price was 60.4 per cent below the level of June, 1929. But even here there were wide variations. Two agricultural commodities actually rose in vnlue} during’ this period, while two others fell by more than 80 per cent. Losses elsewhere in the farm list | ranged from less than 10 per cent to more than 70. Since the end of the banking crisis the level of | prices has advanced, but again the average makes a variety of experiencee in different groups. During the four months from February to June house- furnishing goods gained in value by less than 2 per ! cent. Fuel and lighting materials actually declined. | On the other hand, hides and leather products rose by 20 per cent and farm products by more than 30. Within the farm group the gain for livestock and poultry was less than 18 per cent, but that for grains was nearly 80. The conclusion most clearly warranted is that recovery, in general, has been largest in the case of those commodities which had previously been most severely deflated. The re- bound, as was to have been expected, has varied with the force of the preceding fall. Twenty-seven A Spur to Codes and Recovery. (Engineering & Mining Journal.) Taking advantage of a clause in the Industrial Recovery Act authorizing him to enter into agree- ments with employers, the President on July .27 launched an emergency drive against the forces of depression. This new expression of the partnership between industry and Government took the form of a voluntary agreement between employers and wages for employees for the remainder of the year, pending approval of codes of fair competition. If the enthusiastic response to his appeal can be taken as competent evidence, business shares with the President the confident belief that united action can successfully combate adverse economic condi- tions, and that it is not necessary to yield supinely to the process of letting the depression ‘“‘work itself out naturally.” But the employment agreement is only a tem- porary step in the plan of recovery, an expedient to speed up the process of increasing purchasing power and keeping the ability to consume ahead of rising prices and volume of production. There remains the necessity of group agreements under codes of fair competition. In fact, the sharpest spur in the employment agreement is found in Clause 11, which commits the signer ‘t'o cooperate to the fullest extent in having a code of fair com- petition submitted by his industry at the earliest possible date, and in any event before September 1, 1933." Codes are still not only essential but highly desirable. The employment agreement offers the employer no quid pro quo. It merely commits him temporarily to a national policy. on hours and wages of labor. Under a code he may agree further with other employers in his own industry to abolish trade practices that stifle fair competi- tion and profitable business, and can obtain gov- ernmental sanctions supereseding antiquated re- strictive clauses in the anti-trust laws. The "forces of recovery are moving. Coopera- tion is the order of the day. Hopefully the Ad- ministration regards the depression, not merely as a storm to be weathered, but as a plague to be eradicated by heroic measures of control. the President to set maximum hours and minimum | MENUS of the DAY By MRS.

The head football coach of the Naval Academy will discourage the term “varsity” respecting any of these teams and will not always start the same combination.
