A RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENT. Under the above heading tne Cordova Times, one of the few daily newspapers in Alaska which is out and out Republican in its politics, urges the re-election of Anthony J. Dimond as Delegate from Alaska to Congress. The Times declared: Hon. Anthony J. Dimond, Alaska's Dele- gate to Congress since March 4, has proven | himself eminently qualified to discharge the | duties of that office, and the Daily Times, j b 1 n independent Republi- ! b AR A bR v | that actual concentration of these charged mole-| can newspaper, takes pleasure in endorsing the present incumbent for re-election and will give it whole-hearted support to ac- complish that end. indefatigable worker, has the confidence of the Adminitration and largely through his efforts the Territory has received greater benefit in constructive legislation, liberal ! appropriations to relieve the unemployment situation and the appointment of bonafide Alaskans to Federal positions during his | short tenure of office than almost all of I his predecssors during their many years at | the national capital. | The probabilities are that Delegate Di- mind will have no opposition among the Democrats for re-nomination and re-election, and in case he does at the primary his nomination is a foregone conclusion. So far 1 no Republican has shown a disposition to | enter the race and a gracious thing for that party--te -do- would - be ~to - either not- enter a candiddte or endorse Mr. Dimond for re- | election. By doing this it would enable the present Delegate to forego the time and expense of making a campaign, and thus enable him to remain at Washington, D. C., where he is doing such excellent and telling work for Alaskans as a whole, regardless of $ politics. . | GENERAL MANAGER | :thus affected become either positive or negative i | Delegate Dimond has | e S | been loyal to the residents of Alaska, is an | NO CRITICISM HERE. Himself the author of a recent book, and the prospective author of another, Franklin D.

It is interesting to] |note that while the books about Mr. Roosevelt come | from a variety of scurces, they are all alike in being | distinctly friendly. As yet nothing resembling blun:l | criticism has appeared in book form. It. is not surprising that Mr. Roosevelt should attr the attention of a wide variety of writers. iHo is undertaking social experiments that challenge the enthusiasm of welfare workers and social-minded people generally. He is engaged in daring economicj | plans which depend greatly on sheer theory for their | validity, inevitably attracting the interest of econ- | omists and students of politico-economic problems. He is a peculiarly engaging person and makes “good copy” for those who might .style thgmselves feature | writers. i Typical of the books about Mr. Roosevelt is that | by Ernest K. Lindley, who writes frankly and with | some objectivity about the President from the| | vantage point of intimate acquaintance over a period of years. It is restrained in its praise and honestly seeks to be in the objective. Yet it is quite properly | sympathetic in its approach. Other books have been more lavish in their praise and some more re- straned in their judgments, but practically all of | them follow the motif of sympathetic interpretation. | | CONSTANT LIGHTNING SILENT. | Ceaseless currents of atmospheric electricity, of| the same birth as lightning, but coming without | | flash or sound pour from the atmosphere into the | earth.

SYNOPSIS: Nonya Volkov. who has undergorie incredible hard- ships to reach and kill Igor Kara- Fhan, tells him she knows he w responsible for the deaths of her father and Urother. ~Mecanwhile Curt Tennyson, twho loves Sonya and wants to bring Karakhan to §ustice for his many crimes. {s held back because his partner has failed _him by not having Curt's amphibian at the appointed ren- dezvous.

But she steadied herself, dashed the tears from her eyes; and her right hand erept in. side her blouse. It was genuinely news to Kara- khan that her two menkin had been put to death by the secret police. He had indeed sent them to Vladivostok with forged papers on a nonexistent deal, as she said; and he had written | the police anonymously that they were coming, so that they would be | arrested. In tne critical days just before he cashed in on his huge swindle, the Soviet agents had become suspicious that something was wrong in their trading with western Canada; but by pointing their suspicions at the Volkov men and sending those two across to the Siberian port, he had _..FORBIDDIN VALLEY by, Williawm Byron Moweu made a gesture, as though to sorse ally of his who had crept up to the window and was training a gun on her. “Don’t!” he cried. “Don’t shoot!” The ruse would never have caught Curt Tennyson. But Sonya was on the first man hunt of her life; and for all the brilliancy of that hunt she knew nothing of the subtleties which come only from desperate experi- ences. She whirled, glanced at the empty window—and her second’s advantage was gone. In the moment that her eyes left him, Karakban gripped the staff, lifted it, and swung at her. Sonya threw up her arm to save aerself, but the heavy clublike thing knocked her arm away and struck her a glancing smash along the temple. She reeled, and her gun went clat- tering against the sheet-iron stve. Karakhan lifted the staff for an- other blow, but it was not neces- sary; bis first had knocked her senseless. In the throbbing stillness Kara- khan stood over her, breathing heav- ily, looking down at her white face. As he regarded her he understood something of the passionate devo- tion and loyalty which had turned Sonya into a cold-furied vengeance of a girl and sent her on her hunt. When he saw that she was merely New Year’s resolution which we so earnestly made. Mobilizing the “Deutschtum.” (New York Herald Tribune.) Any doubts that may have iiugered as to the inability of German reactionaries to learn any- thing must have been dispelled by the report from Germany that former Chancellor von Papen's news- paper, “Germania,” has appealed to Americans of German descent to make propaganda in this coun- try for the Nazi cause. Has Captain von Papen | forgotten his experiences in this country in 1915 and | 1916? Is he stil laboring under the delusion that | the “Deutschtum”in America is at his beck and | call? g | The old charitable explanation of this extra- | ordinary appeal is that the former Chancellor is out | of touch with present sentiment in this country. | Were this not so he would be aware that even | outside of Jewish circles the vast majority of | with Hitler's methods.

Their business associates don't know it, even now. The police don’t know a whisper about their death.” She made a gesture of con- tempt at the stumbling ineptitude of the police. N the face of death, the nearest that death had ever brushed him, Karakhan was shaken with a cring- | ing terror. He was at her mercy, and she had no mercy. “Sonya, I'm sorry about your fa- ther and brother.” In a frantic effort | to stave off his doom, he seized upon | almost any plea. “Won’t you let me explain exactly the extent of my guilt?” He folded his hands behind his back, apparently as & show of help- lessness, but his fingers closad over the iron-tipped ski staff against the wall. Even so, he dared not move. Sonya held only a second's advan- tage, but for him that second was the difference between life and death. “Let you explain your guilt?” she .met his plea. “Anything can Je ex- | plained.

When she looked back:to himy again, he saw the cealization come into her eyes that her huut had ended in a horrible failure. She broke out in an insane vio- lence. She struggled to tear the cords from ber wrists and ankles. She flung herself off the bunk and tried to roll toward the little automatic by the stove. Karakhan seized her. She writhed and fought him, but his greater strength prevailed, and by degrees her violence exhausted her, till. her struggles became pitifully weak. He carried her back to the bunk and lashed her upon it. They stared at each other, Sonya defiant, Karakhan epjoying his sense of mastery. “S8o you came here to kill me, sweetheart,” he said, in Russian. “I should have known. But better late than never. Now what shall 1 do to you in return, before | go away from here? You are thinking 1 will harm you. Not at all. Instead, I am going to allow you your fredom. In short, 1am going to leave you here.” He paused to enjoy the effect of his words upon Sonya. He watched the blood ebb from her face, saw a terror come into her eyes in place of her defiance a few moments ago. “You won’t lack attention, little one,” he added, with a wolfish smile on his mouth. “LeNoir and the In- dian will be fighting over you in an hour from now. You probably would prefer LeNoir, but personally I think the Indian will win—he has a whole clan behind him. But either way, sweetheart, it will be a long, long time before you see a white face again.” (Copwgit, Wiiiam B.
