Two news dispatches Saturday, from different sources indicate that consistent efforts are under- way in Washington for increased Alaskan Air Mail routes, and improved aviation facilities. One dispatch advised that army officers were eager for air mail in Alaska because the establish- ment would mean the construction of numerous landing fields throughout Alaska. Another was the statement of W. W. Conner, of Seattle, Vice-Gov- ernor for the Pacific Northwest Area of the National Aeronautic Association, that he had reliable informa- tion from Government officials that star route con- tracts would be let for carrying air mail in Alaska, and predicted that the main route would be from Puget Sound over the water to Alaska. The Juneau Chamber of Commerce has passed resolutions favoring both Army air bases in Alaska, and additional air mail routes. Further the Cham- ber has forwarded resolutions pointing out the advantages of Juneau in connection with airways development. These are substantial, constructive actions on the part of Juneau's Chamber of Commerce, and will contribute to the momentum that will eventually bring increased air transportation and its benefits to Alaska. PITY POOR HOLLYWOOD. Wollywood's gone and done it again! If it isn't blamed for one thing its another. Last week the editor of the University of South- ern California’s “Daily Trojan” said the Trojan's defeat by Washington State College can be traced back to Hollywood. He said some of the Trojan grid men were “Toys of some henna-haired beauty or film magnate,” and that a Hollywood paper said half of the first string players were employed part | time in the studios. Coach L. M. “Biff” last week, while enroute East, Jones also told the squad “the talk back home is that this team has gone Hollywood, if there is' any truth in this it will show up against Pitt, if we lose I'll be ashamed of all of you.” Pittsburgh trounced the Trojans 20 to 6 in Sat- arday’s game, and of course it must have been Yaughty Hollywood's fault. A smart new alibi for coaches. And the long-suffering film colony just received a world-wide spanking for snappy pic- tures to! Amateur rules of course disqualify a football player if he accepts money for playing football. However, mosl large universities endeavor to find part-time jobs for good football men, who need help, or couldn't attend a university without financial aid. Many part-time, odd jobs, in and out of foot- ball season are available in the studios, and just why it should be wrong for football men to be working in the studios instead of picking up towels, around the college gym, or running an elevator, or being a “bouncer” in a cafe or the hundred and one other occupations that college students engage in to earn their way through is not quite clear. Further, part-time jobs in studies with the pos- sible conngctions they offer after graduation for real good, steady jobs,-are undoubtedly most desirable to ambitious students, and go a long way to help lift the mortgage on the old homestead for the folks back home. After all it is the football players that pack those millions of dollars in gate receipts into million dollar stadiums, every week during the season, lhat‘ the work of previous players have built. After three or four years of being a football hero, with plenty of breaks and bruises thrown in, the player gra.dual entitled to the ! into a somewhat indifferent and cold world, andj arts looking for a job, if he hasn't been threwd enough to get himself set while in the spotlight Mayte some of these present Trojans the editor is disturbed about have gone too much “Hollywood.” But we'll venture to say that the publicity resulting from the ticism” will bring a thousand stalwarts | to volunteer their football ability to the U. 8.

Mr. Hull flatly dismisses such a policy as “economic suicide.” He perceives that only by continuing “triangular trade”—whereby one na- | tion buys from another more than it sells, balancing this by selling to a third nation more than it buys from it—can we hope to maintain even our present reduced volume of international business. | The belief that a nation ought to have an exact balance of trade with each of its customers is one |of those fallacies that are possible only in the realm {of academic discussion. No sensible person dreams of applying such a principle to his private business. A lawyer seldom informs a doctor that he will give him only as many dollars’ worth of his medical business as the doctor will give in return of his legal business. Plumbers are not in the habit of |buying from grocers just enough food to offset the grocers’ purchases of plumbing repairs. Sensible !men in general get as many customers as they can land buy from whoever seems to have the best product for the least money. This is “triangular trade,” and the arguments for it are substantially the same for world as for individual business. The attempt to attain an exact balance of im- ports and exports with each nation could result only in a drastic shrinkage in both sides of the trade balance. 000 worth of goods from us and sold us $78,000,000 worth. If Germany insists on bringing this pa ticular trade into balance, she can, by buying some | things at greater cost or inconvenience elsewhere and by denying herself some things altogether, re- duce her purchases from us by $62,000,000. there is no way in which she can force us to take $62,000,000 more of her goods that we do not want Further, by pursuing such a policy she might en- courge England, Holland, Belgium, France, Sweden and other countries with whom she has a “favorable” balance of trade to imitate her, in which case her} export trade would suffer a fatal blow. For the United States, achievement of a direct country-to-country balance would involve awkward problems.

True, the $53,000,000 saving we could make by doing without coffee might be deplorably offset if the British should decide to balance trade with us by buying $200,000,000 less a year.

The gold yield of the Territory this year will eclipse anything in her history. Literally millions are moving in a stream through such portals as Anchorage to the outside—moving in particularly heavy volume at this time of the year | because of the shipments from the Fall cleanups following the intensive operations in placer and quartz mines. The numerous camps are pouring out their streams of the golden wealth—concentrating as they move down the main coastal route of commerce into Seattle like one great river of gold. Into this main artery flows the gold of the camps immediately tributary to Anchorage—Willow, Valdez Creek, Kus- kokwim, the Iditarod, Flat, Cache Creek, Good News Bay, Bear Creek, Hope and other Kenai Peninsula points. Then comes the huge volume from the Fairbanks camp, and the lesser camps of the Yukon Basin—Ruby, Poorman, Koyukuk, Marshall and others. From the Nabesna, the Fortymile, Eagle and the Copper River and Valdez Creek areas flow in other precious streams. Added to these are the big golden tributaries rising in the great Nome country and its hinterland—and then again the great and persistent golden outflow of the won- derful Alaska Juneau Mine—a perfect mint in itself. With gold stepped up to 75 per cent in value this year Alaska’s golden gift to the nation for 1934 promises to total $18,000,000 to $19,000,000—an unprecedented figure. And if the Government steps | |the price up to $40 or more—as seems likely— | |Alaska will be on top of the world in more ways‘ than one. | A nzee.
