At the instance of the American Legion post of that community, the City Council of Wrangell has enacted an ordinance prohibiting the establishment of saloons there. The Legionnaires petitioned for cuch a municipal statute “before -December, 1933,” because it is clear that the Eighteenth Amendment will be repealed in that month. While there is nothing illegal about Wrangell or any other town passing such an ordinance, it really isn't needed to keep saloons out. The repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment will not affect Alaska in the slighest. This Territory will still operate under the Alaska Bone Dry Law, another Con- gressional enactment. If that law should be repealed the manufacture and sale of liquor in Alaska will | continue to be controlled by Congress since our Organic Act prohibits the local Legislature from passing laws on that subject. However, Delegate Dimond’s measure seeking repeal of the Bone Dry Law also would amend the Organic Act to permit control by the Alaska Legislature. In the hope that this bill will become a law, the 1933 Legislature by statute empowered the Governor and Attorney Gen- cral to act as a Liquor Control Board in fixing| regulations deemed wise and necessary for con- trolling both the sale and manufacture of alcoholic liquors. These wolld be effective until the 1935 Legislature could provide for a different system. | Thus it is evident that there is no need for haste at this time by Alaskan municipalities in writing laws about how and where liquor can be made and sold. THE “RAT” IN THE TRAP. Like an old, gray wharf rat that waxed fat raiding on stored grains, Machine-Gun Kelly, the underworld bandit who was bold enough to threaten by letters, on which he had brazenly imprinted his fingers, those engaged in prosecuting his pals inj| the Urschel kidnaping trial at Oklahoma City, is safely confined in the Federal prison at Atlanta. Kelly was labeled a “lucky rat” by Assistant At-| torney General Keenan who is in charge of the Federal Government's drive against gansterdom. The Atlanta bastile makes a good enough trap for him until the Alcatraz penitentiary for incorrigibles is in readiness to receive him and others of his ilk. Mark Twain once wrote about a tough citizen Who | bragged of his toughness, saying: Whoop, bow your neck and spread, for the pet child of calamity is coming. I take thirteen alligators and a barrel of whiskey for breakfast when I am in robust health; a bushel of rattlesnakes and a dead body when I am ailing. I am a child of sin, sired by a hurricane, dammed by a cyclone. Contemplate me through leather, gentle- men, don't look at me with the naked eye. Kelly was of that sort of toughness. But like many another tough guy he took in too much territory. While he was ranting about what he was going to do to those who would keep him from preying on society as he pleased, a real rat-catcher came along in the shape of a Government agent, quiet, but as hard in his way as the underworld rat was in his. And when the jaws of his trap closed, Kelly was no more dangerous than his four- footed prototype. His variety of toughness was no Main | | THREE MORE NEEDED. | Florida's official approval of the Twenty-first Amendment to the Federal Constitution—the resolu- | tion repealing the Eighteenth—while a foregone con- | clusion, was astonishing in one respect—the over- whelming percentage for repeal of the total vote cast | For every vote cast against repeal, four and one-half votes were polled for it. A two-to-one wet victory | would have been more nearly in keeping with the forecasts. Florida was the thirty-third State to approve repeal. But three more are needed to bring the number up to the required 36—three-fourths of the 48 States in the Union. It is almost four weeks before any other State votes are cast on the matter. Six vote on November 7. Of that six, none will attempt to claim that three will not vote wet. It is not unlikley that all of them—Ohio, Kentucky, Penn- sylvania, North and South Carolina and Utah—will approve the repealer. Ohio, Kentucky, and Penn- sylvania are rated as certain to vote wet, and, after ! Florida’s remarkable insurrection against Dry dom- ination, none will argue that her sister Southern | States will not follow the example set by her. Outside of President Roosevelt, our favorite states- man just now is Vice-President John Nance Garner who has kept to himself at his Uvalde farm, en- joying the fishin’ and hunting. An American chemist announces the production of an oil 9,200 times more potent than ordinary cod liver oil. If it tastes that much worse than, old-fashioned cod ‘liver oil, some super-salesmen will be needed to make it a commercial product. We'd advise Japan and Russia to postpone their embroglio until after November 7 since the front; pages of American newspapers will need all thexr‘ space to keep track of the three-cornered New York | mayoralty battle. Credit a Part of rogram. (Cincinnati Enquirer.) It was natural to expect a reaction from the first florid public enthusiasm for the National Re- covery Administration Blue Eagle campaign. Such is human nature. The time limit of white-heat enthusiasm is too short to permit the accomplish- ment of all the things it is necessary to do before recovery can be realized. But it is unfortunate that the faint-hearted should misconstrue a follow-through action of the President as an abandonment of the NRA program. Yet there appears to be in certain quarters an in- clination to so interpret the Presidential desire for credit expansion. Not only is the credit expansion plan not an abandonment of the NRA, it is a definite step in the Recovery Administration program. It is con- ceived and designed principally to extend credit in furtherance of the NRA. To call it an abandonment or even a decided shift from the NRA is, to say the {least, a weird deduction. It is, perhaps, true that the NRA has not ac- complished everything the man in the street ex- pected of it, but he was warned that it would not work an economic miracle over night. There is much work and much waiting ahead before the full effect of the program is realized. An important part of that work lies in perfecting a credit pro- gram that will permit the expansion of business hoped for under the NRA. Ring Lardner. (New York World-Telegram.) The sad eyes of Ring Lardner no longer will make their shrewd appraisal of humanity, and his musician’s ear will catch no more of that peculiar distinctive American language which he recorded with such uncanny precision. His long, painful, baffling illness is over. Newspaper men feel a special grief and loss at his death, for he was one of the great prides of their craft. But he transcended his calling. He belongs—as nearly as any contemporary appraisal dare place him—in the small circle at the very top of American writing men. He was the great historian of life and times in America from about 1912 to 1933, and not merely a historian who recorded but one who shaped events. In him, as much as in any popular writer, the American mind came to mature adjustment with its environment. Beloved as a humorist, he also was widely called {a man who hated his fellow men. Certainly he was merciless in exhibiting human folly, fatuity and futility. He did not accept life. He fought back. Yet his hatred was directed at man in the aggre- gate, not at men personally. He was the complete opposite of Richard Harding Davis, that newspaper man's hero of another gen- eration, whose biography of co-incidence appeared within the week. The one was the posturing romantic, who tied up life in pink ribbons; the other the realist, who took off the cover and showed the works going ‘'round and 'round in eccentric motions. Those who knew Ring Lardner, even slightly adored him, and not merely for his talent. They responded to his kindness, his shy gaiety, his utter integrity. match for that of the Government, and matching toughness for toughness is the way the Government ought to proceed n.gau\st all of those of Kelly's type.
