ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION FIRE PREVENTION. National Fire Prevention Week, which ends to- morrow, ought to be more generally observed than it is. That is indicated by the staggering loss suf- ferred every year in the United States from fires. Last year it totaled $406,885959. The year before that it was more than $450,000,000. It is the greatest in the world. The per capita loss in American cities is given at $2.22 as compared to 85 cents for English cities. These figures are revealing. The unfavorable showing cannot be laid to types of construction used in American building as they are at least not inferior to that in English cities. Our fire fighting organizations are highly organized, competently manned and are equipped with the latest devices for combatting flames. The greater congestion of population in our centers has something to do with | it for where people are crowded together in small areas, fire hazards multiply rapidly. Possibly, too, the Englishman is not so careless in as many ways as we are. In the evolution of his towns he has long ago learned the value of prevention of fires, possibly to a greater degree than has the average American. Whatever be the reason, the relative position in respect to fire losses in the two countries is not one for America to take pride in. The fact that our losses are the highest in the entire world is a disgrace. More and more education of the public to the necessity of eliminating firetraps, of eradicat- ing carelessness in the handling of inflammable materials and the use of fire itself is needed. That is true in Juneau as well as everywhere else. Here, in the Juneau Volunteer Fire Depart- ment, we have as an efficient an organization as can be found almost anywhere to fight fire. As was pointed out at the Chamber of Commerce Juncheon this week in their honor, its record is as fine as can be found anywhere. It is an outstanding fact that this city has never had a serious con- flagration such as almost every seaport city has experienced one or more times in its history. We have had the start of such a catastrophe on more than one occasion, but it was nipped before it could make headway. The community is rightfully proud of its Fire Department on that score.. It is equally proud of it for its civic activities, the part it has played in layground development and the support of clean athletics. This week it is again proving its civic- mindedness by sending its members to the public and other schools to talk on fire prevention. In so doing, if it can inculcate ideas that will prevent even one fire in the city that might otherwise happen through ignorance or carelessness, it will have rendered a greater service than in extinguish- ing a burning building. What the Department is imparting to the school pupils, each of us can likewise learn and impart to others. It is as much the duty of every resident as that of the Firemen. If we perform it as well as they are doing, our fires will be fewer, our prop- erty losses lighter, our insurance rates lower, and the lives of all of us made more safe. |or, letter. SHOULD ADVANCE LE ATIVE DATE. | T BN R In the current weekly news letter from the office | of Delegate Dimond, it is announced that the Dele- | gate has prepared a bill for introduction as soon as Congress meets in January which provides for ad- vancing the date for holding general elections in the Territory to early in September. The reason for this is the fact that Congress in the future will convene in January instead of December, and Alaska’s | delegate, if November elections are continued could hardly qualify for office by the time Congress meets, This fact was fully realized by the local Legis- lature last Spring. To correct the situation, it memorialized Congress to amend the Organic Act to set the election date forward to the second Tuesday That is just what the bill Delegate Dimond has in mind will do. However, the Legislature asked for another change which the Delegate's measure does not provide for, if it does, it was not mentioned in the news It requested Congress, also, to change the time for the biennial session of the Legislature to meet early in January. There were two reasons for this suggested change. First, it is convenient for the local lawmaking body to be in session at the Experience has shown it facilitates legislative action at times when it is/badly needed. Then, too, January is & more convenient time than March for Legislators from other sections of the Territory. Business men, mining men and others attend the March-April sessions at some personal sacrifice. Springtime is the season when they must ppepare for the busy summer months and often hardships have been worked on members of previous sessions on that account The January session would correct that. If the Delegate’s bill does not already contain that provision, he would be wise to add a section to cover. Congress should have no objection to it, and most Alaskans are in favor of it. After repeal, what?, is the question that is agitating many minds. Far's we are concerned @ 1i'1 drink or two will do. When Winter Comes. (Boston News Bureau.) . That coming is about the surest statistical prognosis we have. With October barely a week away, it is none too early to envisage its purse demands in the fifth winter since the sad ides of November, 1929. The fact is not lost sight of in Washington, any more than is the other more insubstantial pres- sure of inflationist agitation. The winter's re- curring charity - requirements were the subject of organized discussion by agencies of benevolence some time since. Now Government counsel to these bodies is given edge by new Administration plans to play almoner, in terms of many dollars. On Friday there was announced the program for such buying of cotton, foodstuffs and other |staples to the tune of $75,000,000 for direct relief {in distributions to the destitute, with coal added on Saturday to that prospective list, at need. There are both hunger and cold to be guarded against, with garments and fuel eking out food. That ex- pensive but needful public generosity is expected to serve a double purpose with a fillip also o certain producers, with Uncle Sam as underwriter and donor. | The Relief Administration and the R. F. C. could handle and finance all this. Then there is |that other relief through acceptance of the principle lof lending to cotton planters up to 10 cents a | pound on cotton held by them, as conditioned upon | curtailment pledges under the new gospel of partial |destruction. Less cotton might well hush the clamor \for more currency. But that is not all the story. Uncle Sam cannot and will not do it all. The President has indicated as much to the mayors meeting in Chicago; now Relief Administrator Hopkins makes it bluntly clear when he tells them that the burden will lap far over the Federal half-billion available, and that if our lesser government units “slack” on the job, the consequences may be serious. Charity must palpably begin at home; and that effort must be recognized and met until this winter of our discontent shall fade. General Johnson's frequent declarations that the NRA cannot be frightened or intimidated seem to indicate that there’s no use trying to raise goose- flesh on a blue eagle.—(Boston Herald). Although “man wants but little here below,” by |the time he splits with the NRA he’ll need every- |thing he gets to pull through. — (Lexington, Ky, Herald.) | Maine waited until 25 others had spoken on |repeal.
