ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION LIBERTY UNDER THE NEW DEAL. Postmaster General James A. Farley stimulated as well as voiced the thoughts of many last Friday night when, in his Chicago sbeech, refering to the fear Republican leaders are attempting to generate nationally, namely, that the New Deal is a threat to American Liberty, when he told his audience that though the Republicans are now calling for Liberty, when their party was in power “the average man had so little liberty he had to violate the law to get a glass of good beer.” Ever since Chairman Henry P. Fletcher of the Republican National Committee, laid down his gen- eral and unspecific lines of attack at the Jackson meeting in July, saying that he favored, “our cxist- ing system of individual rights and liberties” and condemned the Roosevelt Administration for “regi- mentation,” the faithful in the G. O. P. ranks from Herbert Hoover to the precincts have taken it up &s a battle cry. In addition to Mr. Farley’s pithy observation many another has pointed to the vulner- ability of the attack, including Henry Goddard Leach, Editor of the Forum Magazine, who in a recent radio wspeech assailing the newly-formed American Liberty League, said: “The American citizen is losing the noble liberty of starving to death, to go unclothed, or to be with- | out a roof over his head in the land of his fathers; ]‘ he has lost the liberty of selling worthless stocks | and foreign bonds to fellow citizens; he has lost the | Hberty of exploiting little children by employing | them in sweat-shops at starvation wages, and the | liberty of being permitted to receive excessive bon- | uses as a corporation executive without the consent of the stockholders. If these are the liberties which we have sacrificed on the altar of the New | Deal I, for one” he added, “Make my humble | offering.” | ‘The question of individual liberty has ever | been highly debatable. Corporate interests which object to regulation at home as an intolerable form of paternalism, ask when they expand into foreign countries that the Government protect them like children. The word “liberty” as used today may mean thoi open shop if an employer is speaking, a closed shop if a labor leader is speaking. There is no| consistent, common, mutually accepted definition of liberty. | However, to the great bulk of the American people the New Deal has meant a new conception of liberty for their bétterment, new hope, re-vitalized | ambition, the courage to face and use new oppor- tunities for progress, and when the national vote 1s registered it will show as the Alaska vote showed that the people are not accepting the reactionary's Interpretation of Liberty, and that they overwhelm- ingly believe that the New Deal is NOT a threat to American Liberty. THE DELEGATE’S HOME-COMING. “Well, so long Tony, remember what I told you, and let me hear from you when you get back there,” “Hello, how long you going to be here, want to have a talk with you before you get away.” Buch goodbyes and greetings, multiplied, were accorded Delegate Anthony J. Dimond as he was assembling his baggage on the dock Saturday shortly after the arrival here of the Aleutian, winding up a four wecks' trip that took him to many parts of the Territory he represents in Congress. SBuch greetings and goodbyes we believe were | accorded the Delegate throughout the parts of the Territory he visited, because he is that kind of an Alaskan and in the time between such wholehearted, informal welcomes and the farewells Delegate Dimond has listened to the people of Alaska, has heard about and seen the accomplishments of his and the Administration’s work and interest in Alaska. Further and more important he has ac- cumulated new, first-hand, detailed knowledge of Alaska's needs; through these friendly, sincere talks with the prospectors, miners, fishermen, businessmen and others, he has not only gained in information but in strength, perspective, conviction, all conmbut-; ing to the effectiveness and stamina of his service in the coming session of Congress. Unopposed for his office, he came not to cam- paign but learn more as to how best he can serve. Alaska appreciates his coming and is confident that| # will be fruitful. IT'S IN THE AIR.

Fall is here. Pleasantly so! SUN MOTORS DEVISED IN RUSSIA. On the heels of a recent statement that no prac- tical use has been made of a sun motor in which a boiler is heated by the concentrated rays of the comes a report from Russia that extensive studies have been made there of methods for utiliz- ing the sun's heat directly for power and other commercial purpose The report has been received by Dr. E. E. Free, experiments have been carried on at the Helio- Technical Institute organized two years ago ab Samarkand by the Soviet Government. A system of lenses is used and they raise a blackened boller to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, combaring favorably with temperatures obtained in coal-fired boilers. They are used for heating water and for heating air used in drying operations. A unique solar pump has been developed which raises 20 gallons of water a second to a height of 30 feet. The pump consists of a series of tubes and valves. The tubes are alternately heated by the sun's rays and cooled by water from deep wells. A still more direct method of trapping the sun’s heat involved spreading a thin layer of coal dust over cotton fields in the Spring. The black dust absorbs the heat from the sun and this warms the soil. Tests show an advance of the cotton harvest by two months, from September to July. TOO 1 GEROUS A PLAYTHING. For fifteen days & Juneau boy has laid in St. Ann's Hospital with a badly injured eye. They do not know how much longer he must remain, because his eyeball, pierced by a needle-pointed thing called a “dart,” is slow to heal. They say no one was to blame. “buddy” were playing with a dart and happened.” The way to prevent its “just happening” again is not to use these dangerous darts. it “just New Vitamin Lore. (New York Times.) In January, 1932, Sir Frederick Gowland Hopkins, | pieneer investigator of vitamins, remarked of the | one that bears the letter “C” that an ounce of it would protect 5000 human beings from contracting scurvy for a whole year. Although he regretted the fact that “to obtain that quantity with our present powers would probably require some millions of oranges or lemons” he did not despair. “Be assured,” he added, “the day is not so far distant when the organic chemist will make it as well as |other vitamins scientifically.” Now Professor Szent- Gyorgyl annonces that vitamin C, the most elusive of all, the one which seemed to defy all attempts at isolation and identification, can be bought for a few pennies, neatly sealed in tubes, in the form of beautiful white crystals { It has taken exactly two centuries to reach th point. Two years ago chemists talked of “hexuronic acid.” Now it is “ascorbic acid.” But whether vitamin C and this ascorbic acid are identical is still a moot question—so highly complicated is the structuse of the molecules involved. Yet such is the insight of the modern chemist and such his skill that he can divine what the floor plan of the acid probably is, make a blueprint of it and thus build up something like it synthetically. But having tediously wrested from cabbages, ! lemons and paprika the secret of their anti-scorbutic properties, the mystery of nature again overawes us. Why is it that scarcely weighable amounts of | the vitamins should be so essential to the main- tenance of bodily health? And why should there be such a chemical similarity between vitamins, | which grow in plants outside the body, and horm- ones, which the body itself manufactures? The more we understand the chemistry of hormones and vitamins the more we understand life. And yet| how much remains to be done. The chemist has still to tell us just how the vitamins arise in each living cell and the changes that they continuously undergo, without apparently affecting the body as a whole. It is clear that when these problems are solved a new chapter in science will have to be written, a chapter which will deal with dramatic chemical happenings that cannot be Seen but that can be intellectually visualized. Hormones and vita- mins—know these and we shall know the reason for all the anatomical changes that occur within us from infancy to old age, know the mechanism of the evolutionary process itself. The Song of the Sword. (New York Times.) Herr Banse, the first Professor of Military Science in a German university, is a more lyrical successor of Bernhardi. His ideas are more gran- diose. If they were not, they wouldn't be worthy of the supreme monocracy of Der Fuehrer. A couple of his ‘books had to be withdrawn from eir- culation from prudential motives, but their appear- ance may be as significant as the great mass of German books and pamphlets that slept mostly unnoticed abroad before the great war. Some curious passages from Banse's invocation to Bellona have been printed in London by the “Friends of Europe.” ] He and his 'ar e i — 20 YEARS AGO From The Empire NTION JUNEAU CLUB WOMEN'S Juneau Women’s Club will regular monthly business , Tuesday afternoon, Octo- at 2 o'clock in the City uncil Chambers.

All these intermixed sciénces are but anterooms to a new national, to “military, science.” He isn’t a good neighbor. To beat the French in the next' war, Germany must take occasion or have permission “to march through Belgium and Holland in the north and Switzérland in ‘the south.” He plans the invasion and occupation of Southeast Englanfi.x Such a movement should be supported “by an at= tack from Ireland on the west of Central England.” Scotland and North Ireland are also to be victims of military science. Denmark must form an offen- sive and defensive alliance with Germany to give the latter control of the North Sea and the Baltic. Without German influence there can be “no hope of a rebirth” of the Danish, Swedish and Norwegian tates. The only way to settle the Polish question is to return to the eighteenth-century method, divide Poland and so end Polish restiveness and ambition. Herr Banse counts 92,000,000 Germans in Central Europe, “the territory of the real German Empire.” Military science “is concerned primarily with the whole people and seeks to build up an heroic spiritual attitude toward war, create understand- ing of modern war and establish the prerequisites/! Well, Herr “Hitler has brought about the semblange of upity amohg the All-Aryan German tribes and created the heroic spiritual attitude—for peace, ® -line, for birds, the deer retreating down course, until military and financial preparedness is equal to spiritual. 4 “Juneau’s Own Store” 19 -YOU CAN REALLY HAVE A NEW CAR ALASKA MEAT CO.
