I Alaska’s history as an integral part of the American nation today reached its sixty-sixth year. On October 18, 1867, Gen. Rosseau signalized its hirth into the American family when he raised the American flag at Sitka just after the Russian imperial emblem had been lowered. The intervening years have not been without their significance. If Alaska’s growth has not been as great and as fast as some of its enthusiastic friends have pre- dicted, it has nevertheless been continuous and cteady. Each year sees its place as an American territory more secure and its future more assured. The four years of depression through which we have just passed have touched us less severely than any part of the Union. Our industries have under- gone less disasters and our people have suffered jess hardships. And today, on the eve of another ‘Winter, our position is far brighter than that of most of the States. Proportionately our need for outside aid is not so pressing. We have, as all pioneer peoples have had, the habit of caring for our own, of making our fellows' troubles our own, to a greater degree than the older settled portions of the country. Outside assistance is required, of course. But we ‘shall do our part as always. The individualistic spirit that is the heritage of pioneers has developed here despite Federal inter- ference rather than because of Federal encourage-|j, ment. No pioneers in the country’s entire history ever received so.little encouragement toward indi- | vidual achievement as Alaskans have. Where ‘others were given unlimited opportunity to carve out estates from the natural resources of new lands, we bave found ourselves circumseribed with laws, regulations, forbidden signs and all manner of handicaps to individual achievements. Some of us, indeed, have on occasion been prosecuted for doing the same kind of things that our ancestors were rewarded for. Our resources, in large measure, have been na- tionalized. Our coal has been tied up from private | ownership. Our oil, too, is locked away in reserves and can only be used under an impossible leasing system. Our game and fur is administered. under laws passed by persons who know them only by hearsay. Our forests mature and rot away in disuse while we import products from foreign lands that could be manufactured in abundance from the waste that occurs each year. Under such handicaps the wonder is not that| we have 'not grown more rapidly, but that we have existed at all. They were never imposed on any other pioneer American community.

If some State should stagger along now with a vote against repeal, the most astonished folks in the country would be the Drys. The Arctic Ocean and the World. (New York Herald Tribune.) In present discussions of possible relations with Soviet Russia it would be unwise to forget the -prob- able role of Russia’s Arctic coastline in future world communications, as emphasized in Mr. Barnes's re- cent Leningrad dispatches concerning the inquiries of Colonel Lindbergh and the plans of Professor Samoilovitch. Whatever one may think of Soviet political theories, there can be little doubt that the Siberian territory under that government’s control is destined to be one of the great mining regions of the next generation, presumably with parallel development of heavy industries such as the pro- duction of iron and steel. Similar developments of more diversified industries in China and Manchuria may be expected to follow promptly on settlement of present turmoils. If the United States is to share world benefits of these changes improved communi- cation for the transport of human beings, at any rate, are essential. Across the Pacific by present routes these are impossibly slow. Around the north- ern border of that ocean passage may be more prac- [ticable, but the best potential routes undoubtedly are across or around the Arctic. It is interesting to speculate how different would have been the picture of world transportation today had development of aircraft preceded the tele- graph and telephone. far less today than in 1849, when California was our most isolated province. Lacking electric com- munications, the world undoubtedly would have set up long ago daily mail routes by air across Green- land and Siberia, perhaps across the pole. Even the present lessened demand may be counted on to bring such routes in time, presumably as soon as | weather information from these regions is adequate. Among the recent activities of Soviet science the soundest undoubtedly is the progress made in estab- lishing permanent weather observatories on Nova Zembla and other Arctic islands and around the northern coast of Asia. " Historians often have remarked that oceans seem to take turns in welcoming to their shores the bene- fits of civilization. If one shares the theories of those who look eastward for the germs of culture in Egypt and Babylonia, the Indian Ocean was the first. The Mediterranean had its turn of centuries. For a time it has been the two sides of the Atlantic which were dominant. Prophets have been in- clined to select as next candidate for this honor the northern Pacific, with vigorous Japan and re- juvenated China on its west bank and the west- ward outgrowth of American culture on its east. Perhaps so, but it is just possible that such his- torical prophecies have neglected the Arctic and the role its shores may play in the next few cen- turies of world affairs. Aircraft are more independ- ent of cold than other ordinary means of trans- portation. Some scientists believe, moreover, that the Arctic is growing slowly warmer, as it appar- ently was once before, about 4,000 years ago. ‘With repeal set for December 5 or 6 it will come at least partially removed, modified to the extent that Alaskans have something to say about them, our growth will continue to be slow. ‘We believe that the sixty-seventh year in Alaska’s history will be eventful in that respect. We have a Delegate in Congress who realizes what is wrong with us, and who has the vision to suggest remedies that will cure much of the evil. We are confident he has the ability to convince Congress of the neces- sity for a remedy and of the efficacy of the Home too late to have a bearing on the conduct of foot- ball crowds, but early enough to alleviate the worst rigors of winter.—(Boston Globe.)

It was the an- niversary of the date on which Alaska became a potential asset of the United States. J. H. Wijman, manager of the Dupont Powder Company’s plant at Seattle, had bcen in Juneau for several days looking the place over with the view of recommend- ing the establishment of a storage depot necar Juneau and with of-! fices of the company in town. F. O'Neil (Tennessee Kid) who had left Juneau early in the Spring, for the Chisana, “was in the city and was most enthusias- tic about the district in which the stampede occurred. He exhibited a small nugget weighing perhaps a pennyweight which he said he obtained from his bench. Sid Whitcomb, who had been in charge of the P. O. Store during the absence of James Barragar, was confined to his home mlh| pneumonia under the care of Dr L. O. Sloane. Charles Russell was to head a large hunting” parfy from Tread- well that was to leave on the launch Pacific for Sneltriam. The party expected to be gone several days. In the evening the Juneau High School Band promenade concert and ball was to take place in the Channel were planning to observe Alaska Day by attending the af- fair, Railroad Tries to Stop Clickety-Click of Rails HELENA, Mont., Oct. 18. — The clickety-clack of the rail joints may be eliminated over the Nor- thern Pacific route through Mon- tana. 1 For the benefit of those voyagers to whom the song of the rail ends is distracting, the system is ex- perimenting with a composition joint expected to eliminate the sound.
