ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION, STILL TOO MANNY BOOTLEGGERS. A potent argument for the reduction of the Fed- eral liquor taxes is obvious in the report of “Activities »f Investigators, Alcohol Tax Unit, for Week Ending Jetober 6, 1934." The report reveals that: 236 stills were seized,| sapacity 33,797 gallons; 12,221 gallons spirits seized; 412515 gallons mash seized; 55 autos and trucks seized; $73947 worth of property seized, and 443 arrests made. Such a weekly report indicates that bootlegging GENERAL MANAGER |But there is mnot much danger of that under | present, - administrative policies. The Recovery Act forbids_the breeding of monopolies through . codes. How closely NRA\is following this and other limi- tations of the act is shown by -its record—court victories in more than 90 per cent of its litigation. On the other hand, if price levels are fixed to they have been in some | save little fellows—and cases—it appears that the big fellows may make excessive profits. In cases where price stabilization is necessary | as an insurance against economic suicide, there- fore, the responsibility is plainly up to lawmakers‘ and administrators. They must do what they can| to see that producer, distributor, consumer all are treated fair In most s, however, the Government trend in our judgment should be away from price fixing of any kind. < At Japan’s Diseretion, ! (New York Herald ‘Tribune.) = Throughout most of the year 1932 when the iJupsnese were allenating “Mafichuria, setting ‘up {Manchukuo and courting fntérnational jrecognition fof the “puppet” State, the plédge was" freuently | broadcast from Tokio that-Manchukuo would respect ithe principle of the Open-Dogr and would guaran- itee to all the commercial powers the’ equal trade !opp'ortuntks to which they were, entitled under their | treaties with China. This pledge was not conditional. | | Japan never said that those powers which recognized | jManrhukuu and no others would continue to enjoy their Chinese treaty rights. But it was informal, |and jt was never acknowledged by any nation, be- |cause' acknowledgment of it would have implied jrecognition of Manchukuo, of Japans hegemony over that State, and of her consequent right to de- fine the conditions under which aliens could do business there At any rate the pledge has gone by the board, for the Japanese military insist that the sale of cil in Manchuria—a commodity essential to the de- | fense of the territory—must be a Japanese monopoly; and the Japanese Government, however it feels about it, has had to reject the pleas of the American and | British Embassies in defense of the established rights | and interests of the Standard Oil Company, the | Texas Company and the Asiatic Petroleum Company. | 1. is reported from the Orient that Japanese monop- olies upon many other lines of trade, much less clearly related to Manchukuo's defense, are cqn- templated. There is probably little doubt that they | evidently is still profitable in parts of the nation.| One of the to eliminate the evil of hootlegging which grew to indescribable malicious | potency during Prohibition is to take the profit| out of it. Lowering the Federal taxes on legitimate | liquor with a consequent lowering of the retail pnrr; way to combat the bont- surest w of liquor is the surest legger. on P’rice Fixing. The Court ‘Telegram.)

If such price-fixing orders “are mot arbitrary fiats the court will stand aloof.” This is of major importance to the whole NRA nd AAA code setup, particularly to those interested n the plight of the small business man. It means that the State Legislatures and Con- oress' can regulate business for the public welfare vithout being compelled to guarantee profits for everyone concerned. “True, of course, it is,” says Mr. Justice Cardozo for the Court, “that the weaker members of the group (the marginal operators or even others above the margin) may find themselves unable to keep pace with the stronger, but it is their comparative inefficiency, not tyrannical compulsion, that makes them laggard in the race.” Such a policy if followed by lawmakers and administrators might lead to a regulated monopoly., will be established. This raises the whole question of the rights—if any—of the non-Japanese trader in Manchuria and Jehol. From the American (and British) point of view Manchuria has not been - legally alienated from “hina and is only temperarily detached from that nation’s sovereignty; so the non-Japanese should siill enjoy there every privilege and opportunity that China ever guaranteed him by treaty, including in British, American, and other cases the extra- territorial right of consular jurisdiction. This speci- right, it must be pointed out to Japan's credit, s never been challenged, and the consuls of the several powers, holding their exequaturs from Nan- king, function in Manchukuo precisely as they did before its alienation. Apart from their rights under the Chinese treaties, however, the Occidental powers hold Japan directly bound to maintain the Open | Door by a clause in Article III of the nine-power treaty which prohibits “any monopoly or prefer- ence . . . in China . .. which . . . is calculated to| frustrate the application of the principle of equal | cpportunity.” | To this citation the Japanese promptly respond | by pointing to the words “in China.” “Manchukuc is not China,” the) d. “It is,” say we, “though temporarily alienated by force majeure.” “Lasting- | ly independent by voluntary action,” the Japanese | retort . “That you allege but we do not accept,” ! say the major Occidental powers. “Too bad,” say the Japanesi And that is our position in the realm of His Majesty Kang Teh — academically full of rights, but actually endowed with whatever privileges | the Japanese satrapy there feels that Tokio can | safely recognize. A nickel isn't supposed to be as good as a dollar, | but it goes to church more often. We Want Mendenhall Milk! And do they get it? and six-year-olds drinks Mendenhall like the taste.

Nearly 40,000 Russians were re- ported to have perished in bat- tle before a terrific turning move- ment of German troops who had been in retreat, and it was indi- cated that the Germans had re- solved to crush Russia in- Poland —by a giant effort. PFurther al- lied losses in | the West were shown in a word received from the war office in the fighting near Bixschoote and Dixmude and that when the the drowning of a' regiment of Germans, 1500 British infantrymen also“*perished. With the European market re- moved because of war, fur prices throughout the country had drop- ped radically from those paid the previous year. Prices which fur- riers expected to pay to trappers during the year were, muskrat, five cents; marten, $3.50; mink, $2; lynx, $4; red fox, $4; bear, $3; eérmine, forty cents. Under the provisions of the Nel- son Act, a new school was author- ized for Hope, Alaska, on Septem- ber 17 and has just been estab- lished. The officers of the new elected school board were, E. E. Carson, clerk; H. H. Clark, treas- urer and Edgar Thaur, director. Considerable propaganda had been started to obtain a school for cCarthy, under this act, and it was expected to be taken before | Congress at the coming session. Miss Leola May Mercer, daugh- ter of A. .C. Mercer, became the bride of Clarence Robert Porter at a ceremony held in the Mercer photographic studio. Following the ceremony, performed by U. S banquet room of the Alaska Grill Guests, in addition to the wedding party were, Mr. and Mrs. George C. Burford, Mr. and Mrs. A. C Carrigan, Mr. and Mrs. Hoyt, Clar- ence C Nichols, Miss Edna Nich- olds and Miss Ruth Anderson. C. W. Spear, well known trav- elling man, left for the south on the Alki. Bruno Mauro, one of the found- ers and principal owners :in the Butler-Mauro Company, which op- erated drug stores in Portland, Oregon, Nome, Juneau and other places, arrived on'the Alameda to visit J. H. Guffey, manager of the local branch, and also one of the prfincipal owners of the company. It was his first visit to Juneau for a number of years and he ccmmented favorably on the chang- ed appearance of the city. Defying the gathering ice in Bering Sea, Senator Frank Aldrich Nome, and Representatives Daly and Moran, left Nome Sep- tember 10 for Seattle, on the gas schooner Sfiver Wave. Barring accident, they were expected to reach Seattle the next week. They were bound for the Outside in order to attend the session of the Territorial Legislature in Juneau in March. Weather: cloudy.
