ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER ‘THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. THE SALOON QUESTION. The saloon question is again to the fore. Before National Prohibition, the saloon was tolerated In every State which permitted the sale of liquor. In no instance was a serious attempt made to eliminate the saloon save by doing away with the legal traffic in liquor entirely. Now we find that no State of the Union intends to allow the saloon to return. Everywhere, public opinion rejects it. Though the States have many distinct plans for handling the Jiquor problem, they are unanimous in their determ- ination to outlaw the oldtime saloon. Apropos to this question, the Cincinnati Enquirer asks: “Just What Is a Saloon?” Its comment follows: Until that question is answered accurately, it will be difficult to frame laws which preclude its return. A saloon is a place where beer or whiskey, or more often both, are dispensed over a counter or at tables. But this definition might be applied to a very exclusive hotel dining room, although it is not a saloon. In the same way almost any restaurant serving beer or spirits might be considered a saloon. Clearly, this is not what public opinion means in demanding the outlawing of the saloon. Probably the real test of a saloon is its atmosphere. It is not only a place where liquor is served, but a place where the serving of liquor is virtually the sole busi- ness. In the past it was screened from the street and featured a long bar. Will legislation against bars amd ;screems and back rooms prevent the return of the saloon? Or will restaurants become saloons in spite of limitations on their physical equipment? Doubtless we shall have to follow the trial and error method, before a liquor control system is devised that fulfills the requirements of public opinion. But a few things are now clear. First, the sale of hard liquor in packages to drink off the premises will not bring back the saloon. Second, hotel dining rooms and restaurants will not turn into saloons if they are wisely managed and if an effective control mechan- ism revokes licenses to enforce its regula- tions. 'Third, it is quite safe to conclude that the sale of beer and wines only for on-premises consumption will not bring back the saloon. From these considerations, it may be reasoned that the surest means of preventing return of the saloon is through a State monopoly to sell hard liquors in packages at dispensaries for liquor stores. If this alternative is not adopted, it means that a commission of able men will have to be created to enforce licensing provisions of the law. A news note says the money in circulation is $44.73 per person. Wonder who the dickens has the other $44.70 of our share! Although they are picking away at the monetary policy, President Roosevelt seems to have the upper hand all right, all right. $ Critics of the NRA are called “ruin leaders” by Administrator Johnson. He has hit the nail squarely on the head. The salmon canning plant of the Libby, McNeill and Libby Company at Taku will be in full opera- tion next season according to Supt. A. N.- Minard. This is cheerful news for Juneau and vicinity as it means employment of local men. Shop and mail early is the request made by the Post Office Department. Don't forget there are only 23 more shopping days. The Alaska Air Express intends to make Juneau headquarters.

Secretary Wallace, one of the pair of shock troopers who have been touring the hinterland in an offensive-defensive, has twice set forth, at Des Moines and at Chicago, the larger campaign strat- egy of the Administration farm program. It will evoke both agreement and disagreement as to matter and manner, Even the old-time orthodox economist would endorse many of the statements made in his Des Moines, speech. He rejected the Governors' price- fixing scheme because it paid no regard to the consumer’s liability to pay; he dismissed compulsory control of production and marketing as subversive of democracy; he condemned the “hell-raising” futilities of the farm-holiday movement, on the unassailable ground that violence can solve no prob- lems; and he insisted that inflation alone will not assure recovery. On the positive side the Secretary paid due respect to the economics of demand and supply. At the latter. He can find no magic wand for raising the price of farm products. There is only one way to that end, he asserted, and that way lies through a realism which will adjust production to the market that actually is, not to the market of our hopes and dreams. All this is strictly orthodox economics. But there are two features of Mr. Wallace’s address that open up vistas of economic adventure which old-timers might face with doubt. One is the flexibility of the recovery program. There is the large difficulty of remaking the checkerboard of farm acreage in the future. Referring to the steps already taken, the Secretary said that if further action is needed, the President will doubtless take it. The other was the declared purpose to increase the foreign market for farm products. International trade was essential to prosperity in pre-war days. But one may well ask whether the sale of America's agricultural surplus in foreign markets is consistent with the realities of economic nationalism as it now exists in Europe and as it is implied in the protective isolation called for by the Administration’s price-raising plan. Wanton Brutality. (Seattle Times.) For wanton brutality nothing since the Lind- bergh case compares with the confessed revelations of the kidnapers and killers of young Brooke Hart of San Jose. Others engaged in kidnaping have done badly enough, but most of them have stopped short of murder. If there were ever incentive to justify lynch law it was given in the Hart case; but fortunately the authorities and the courts every- where may now be trusted for promptness and efficiency in crime of this kind. Nothing less than speedy infliction of the extreme penalty can be expected. The return of beer has been a disappointment to hotel men, says a hotel executive. Well, they have nothing on the old-time beer drinkers.—(At- lanta Constitution.) The Government is to bar liquor advertising in dry States. It thinks it would be bad for them to know that Prohibition has been repealed.—(New York Sun.) A complainant to the New York Herald Tribune thinks that distillers intend to cash in on repeal. He may have noticed that brewers were selling their beer for money—(Detroit News.) Officials of Cincinnati’'s municipally-owned water- works announce that the plant's revenue has in- creased $3,000 a month since beer came back because the breweries are buying water to turn into beer. —(Macon ;Telegraph.) After the wet victory the people can start again to figure how much hard liquor is given away with the tax paid on it.—(Indianapolis News.) As to Insull extradition, the Greeks have a word for it. It is “No."—(Dallas News.)

The wedding was the culmina- tion of a romance between two of the most popular young people living on Gastineau Channel. Mrs. Cashen, who is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Holbrook, of Ashland, Montana, has been teach- ing in the Douglas Schools for several years and has made her home with Mr. and Mrs. Felix Gray.
