ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION PUERTO RICO IN SAME FIX AS ALASKA. Puerto Rico, watching the lengthening procession of States marching toward repeal, has awakened to the glum realization that the annulment of the Eighteenth Amendment alone will not bring the island - any relief from Prohibition because its Organic Act makes the manufacture and sale of liquor unlawful there. Consequently,. Puerto Rica, which has had the briefest preparatory contact with Prohibition of all the American communities, may still be dry when the nation whose influence caused it to.accept the “experiment” is wringing wet. Alaska’s own situation is largely similar to that of Puerto Rico. Alaska’s Organic Act gives Congress alone the right to legislate upon the liquor traffic in the Territory. In 1917, Congress, in response to a Territorial plebiscite on the wet and dry issue, passed the notorious Alaska Bone Dry Law. On' top of that, the National Prohibition Act was later made effective here. When that becomes a dead letter through repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment next December 6, or thereabout, the Alaska Bone Dry Law will remain in effect. Congress has been memorialized on at least two occasions by the Territorial Legislature to repeal the local statute. The House Committee on Terri- tories almost two years ago considered a bill, intro- duced by then Delegate Wickersham, repealing it. No action was ever taken on the measure. Dele- gate Dimond has a similar bill now in the hands more than one-third of that figure in personal expenses in Washington. It has found that certain records had been destroyed, and it found that in | certain instances one company had received as much |as $66,000 a pound for carrying ocean mails. Certainly abuses have not been and will not be | discovered in every case. In many cases the subsidy has been well administered and has accomplished the purpose for which it was intended—the build- ing up of a merchant marine. But enough has been tiscovered to demonstrate not only that the inves- tigation is necessary, but that it should have been made long ago. A German prince, now touring this country, is quoted as having said that America’s new beer has plenty of kick in it. And who was it said that Germans are no diplomats? As far as repeal is concerned, the minority takes it out in talking while the majority does the voting. Henry Ford was quoted once as having said if So why | would quit manufacturing automobiles. | bother about it if he fails to sign the NRA code? Henry Suzzallo. (New York Times.) ) The two coasts of America had a part in the education of Henry Suzzallo. His bachelor's degree was won in his native State at Stanford Univer- sity, his doctorate at Columbia. And his life work, divided between these two coasts and embracing all between, gave him a national field and his service a national prominence among educational | statesmen. His dismissal from the headship of the| University of Washington resulted in releasing him | for an even larger opportunity. Now death has over- taken him in the midst of important studies and projects. H When he was still President of the University of Washington he wrote what might be considered his educational will and testament, though he added several codicils after becomeing President of the Carnegie Foundation. It was entitled “Our Faith in Education” and was dedicated to the teachers of America, “who more than any other group are making it possible for an aspiring democracy 1O approximate its full dream of a prosperous and happy political cooperation.” Especially to be noted today, when the schools are suffering from lack of adequate support, is the passage to the effect that the schools, and “especially the public schools,” from the kindergarten to the State universtiy, are the main instrumentalities consciously used by the nation to realize its hope of sucess in popular gov- ernment. Dr. Suzzallo's faith was expressed in the days of American prosperity, but no codicil in adversity disturbs this provision: All that is wrong behind us and weak around us, discouraging our enthusiasms for the good we see ahead of us, can be mended because we know that men and women can be improved under a correct so- cial system and through education which prepared human nature for it. What he had to say about education and politics puts teachers in the category with judges. The of the same committee whichswould not only repeal the Alaska Bone Dry Law but would also empower the local Legislature to control and regulate the manufacture and sale of liquor in the Territory.} This bill ought to be reached during the term of Congress that convenes in January, next. This bill| has the approval of the Alaska Legislature and of | a majority of Alaskans. If it does not pass, how- ever, Alaska will be just as arid after the Eigh-i teenth Amendment is repealed as it has been up to now. OCEAN MAIL BSIDIES. . It is possible to defend, as is frequently done, the ocean mail subsidies, now amounting to almost $20,000,000 annually, paid to American shipping lines, on the grounds they are necessary if an adequate merchant marine is to be maintained. But the revelations of the Black Committee of the | Senate now investigating these subsidies indicate that it is next to impossible to defend the careless- | ness and complacency with which some of them, at least, have been granted and ,administered. It appears that after the Jones-White Act was signed by President Coolidge in May, 1928, the whole thing was dropped into the lap of certain admin-| istrative agencies to carry out—and no questions asked. Congress paid the bills when presented with- out taking the precaution of requiring any, justifica- tion for the expenditures. And all of this in -the face of common knowledge that such subsidies read- ily lend themselves to flagrant abuses. The findings of the Black Committee to date indicate that there were serious abuses. It has teaching functign is representative ,and no teacher is justified in teaching his own personal religion or politics in the ;class-room hecause he sincerely believes in them. Teachers cannot be at the same time “both partisan politicians and independent educators.” His last codicil would bequeath something more valuable to every child than the will of Caesar to every Roman citizen. No longer ago than last March he declared in an article in The Times that public elementary and secondary education should be free of all student charges; and in support of it he added: § In our thoughtful anxiety for the per- petuation of the best qualities of our civili- zation we clearly see that the larger the number of citizens who have come to under- stand the facts and relations of life as it is today, the better for the future. There is no half-way measure to be assumed toward the Blue Eagle parade. Everybody must fall |in and keep step or destroy the rhythm. Take your choice. “We Do Our Part,” or—We Gum the Works.—(Toledo Blade.) The “Wets” proudly announce that up to July 30 people in these United States had drank exactly 3,344,220,960 glasses of beer since its legislation, Which proves it's not intoxicating. They could never count that high if it was.—(Chicago Tribune.) The sentiment toward the NRA is enthusiastic without being delirious, the tattoo parlors report- |ing only one case of a Blue Eagle being called for. —(Detroit News.) Judging from the way some folks impose on found that the President of one company, drawing more than $1,000,000 annually in subsidies, spent the Blue Eagle, chances are they ought to have |been supplied with buzzards. — (Lexington, Ky., | Herald.)

Cook Oct. 12—Sur- IS REDUCED Passports Drive Hundred Thousand Out of Mos- cow, Is Report MOSCOW, Oct. 12.—The popu- lation of Moscow has been re- duced more than 100,000 by the passport decree which = expelled from the capital to smaller cities and the provinces all those not engaged in “socially useful” work. One June 1, after distribution of passports was completed here, the population had fallen to 3.- 546,000 from 3,663,000 as of Jan- uary 1, 1933." Only 2485184 persons received passports, but children were not| required to have them. Pinal figures have not been re- ceived on the passport system's effect on the ten other cities in which it was applied, but they are ex] to reveal approximately the same ratio as MOscow. —————a———— . A flying machine gun, spitting smoke and flame as it dives out of a cloud, is the new insignia | of geons of the United States and also those from abroad yesterday have been cured during the last three years. Dr, Franklin K. Martin, of Chi- cago, said the American death rate from cancer can be cut one third, from 150,000 to 100,000 a yedr by periodic examination and early treatment. The report was made at the meeting of the American College of Surgeons. Surgery, X-ray, radium and ir- radiation weapons were used in all the cases®and the surgeons agreed that their use would be more effective if the patients re- ported for treatment before the disease was too far advanced. Because cancer has a painless start, it was explained, relatively few apply for treatment while the odds are in their favor. ————— In the files of the Federal Bu- reau of Navigation are-the rec- ords of 300,000 vessels, ranging from motorboats to transatlantic liners. — e Daily Empire Want Ads Pay reported 12,746 cases of cancer | { > - 5 Scientists Trying for Improvement In Quality of Land AMES, Towa, Oct. 12.—Scientists in five branches of research are cooperating to improve the quality and use of one of Towa's principal farm products—lard. The five-sided study, already a year under way, seeks to develop a standard product, free from ob- jectionable features that may have discouraged its use by housewives in the past, and usable in a variety of ways not possible heretofore. Animal husbandry experts are studying the effects of different feeds on the fat of hogs; home economists are investigating lard’s uses in the culinary art; meat men are learning to standardize and perfect the rendering process; chemists are analyzing lard’s re- actions in combination with other foods in cooking and economists of the_ DAY BY MRS ALEXANDER GEORGE PUMPKIN PIE RECIPE Breakfast Menu Grapefruit Buttered Toast " Coffee Luncheon Menu Cream of Pea Soup Crackers Pear Salad Cookles 'Tea Dinner Menu Spanish Rice Buttered Beets Bread Plum Jam Head Lettuce French Dressing Pumpkin Pie Cotfee Cream of Pea Soup for Four One cup cooked peas; one-third cup diced celery; two tablespoons chopped onions; three cups water; one teaspoon salt; one-quarter teaspoon paprika; three table- spoons butter; four tablespoons flour; three cups milk.
