ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. SANTA CLAUS COMES. The weather-man, cooperating with the Alaska Steamship Company, blanketed Juneau with snow to provide the proper atmosphere for the Yukon, its Christmas ship which brought us our first call from Santa C! It is a pleasant jest on the part of the steam- ship company to take Santa on the long voyage from Seattle to Westward Alaska and back again. It spreads the Santa Claus spirit of kindliness and gracious giving. It thrills the children and pleases parents who witness the happiness it brings to the youngsters. pus th THE ROOSEVELT TYPE IN ENGLAND. That President Roosevelt is no Socialist, is the conclusion presented in the final article in a recent series in the Kansas City Star on the New Deal. It is brought out that, while he believes that abuses must be corrected, and that there must be extensions of Government control, collective action and perhaps of public ownership, he is depending essentially on the revival of business activity under the profit incentive to restore prosperity. This conclusion may be rejected by certain busi- ness and financial leaders, whose sincerity is not to be impugned. They cannot understand how a man of Roosevelt’s background and training can go con- trary to certain accepted policies of his class; how he can defy big business and financial interests with which it is assumed his family had been identified. Certainly his roots go back for what has sometimes been called tocracy of New York State. His is the first appear- ance of the country squire in American politi althcugh his great predecessor, Theodore Roosevelt, in class and outlook, foreshadowed Franklin. England is far more familiar with the Roosevelt| phenomenon than the United States. Rather fre- ! quently in British political life some conspicucus‘ leader of the aristocracy has championed the cause‘ of the forgotten man. This championship usualls‘ has sprung from two motives: First, from the cham-| pion's sense of humane fair play; second, from his| belief that the country’s stability required the cor- rection of glaring fibuses. Disraeli was a conspicuous example. He was the Tory leader when the opposition Whigs were pro- moting the great democratic issue of the day—the extension of the right to vote. It was his belief | that his party must get in line for an important reform measure. So he committed it to a more far- reaching franchise extension than the more liberal Whig Party ever had contemplated. It was said Disraeli caught the Whigs bathing and stole their clothes. Franklin Roosevelt can be better understood if it is recognized that he is working on the same| many years into the landed aris- |an instance of how The Heroic Coast Guard. (Kansas City Star.) Inlanders who are not frequent travelers by sea and lake do not appreciate fully the heroic spirit demanded of the widely-flung Coast Guard. They read stories of storms, of wrecks, of fires; read of losses and rescues; but they do not see or experience the battles with raging waves. The wrecking of the lake freighter Henry Cort at the of the Muskegon, Mich., harbor was witnessed by those on shore, who also witnessed the ~hazardous but successful effort ef the Coast Guard to deliver the crew of twenty-five from their perilous position. The rescue was not accomplished without scarifice, one Guardsman, John Dipert, having lost his life in the attempt to save the wrecked sailors. The land, as well as the water, has its tragedies and ligh dramas. Wherever people live, what- ever their occupation may be, they have, in col- lective application, hazards peculiar to themselves. But the lives of the Coast Guardsmen seem es- pecially hazardous. They are trained for battle with the elements, to risk their lives for the lives of others. But for the risks they must encounter, there| would be little use for the Coast Guard. They serve to face danger, and they face it with inspiring courage. (Kansas City Star.) A spectacular instance of business revival is shown in the reports from every part of the country of the betterment in retail trade. These come on the heels of the better dividend reports for the year, published in the last few days. Evidently people are feeling more confident and they are spending more freely than for several years. A New York banker writes The Star: “I think the situation has changed for the better since mid- November. I place a great deal of importance on the very large over-subscription to the long term governments as showing a marked and significant change in the attitude of the banks and large institutions throughout the country toward the present state of affairs. Business news also has been surprisingly better, and for the short run at least I feel much cheered.” And the short run may readily be prolonged into the long run! No Alliance with Japan. (London Daily. Express.) The Japanese were possible allies for Britain in the Pacific only so long as theg were the weaker | party. This was their position when the old Anglo- Japanese alliance was made in 1902. Today the Japanese dominate the Pacific. If we bound ourselves up with them we should be the junior partner, not able to control the policy of the firm, yet responsible for the conduct of the chief partner. Australia, New Zealand, Canada and South Africa will not join hands with Japan. Such an alliance would utterly United States. The United States are the natural companion of the British Empire in isolation from Europe's wars. Any understanding that we make for joint naval action must be with them. alienate the A Question of New Policies. (Washington Post.) Mr. Borah and others who are appealing in the 1press for a reorganization appear to be talking about |a change in personnel. s, |by definition, Only by implication, not are they proposing new policies and principles. But what are to be the new policies and principles? Until the reorganizers are more enlightening on this point they are open to the challenge that they | have no new set of principles to offer. Further- imore, they are open to the suspicion, whether Justified or not, that they are primarily engaged in a contest for control of the party machinery. Not a Lost Cause Song. (Detroit News.) Sentimentalists who frequently cite “Dixi as lost causes tend to inspire great songs should be interested in the fact that the South’s favorite anthem recently celebrated a seventy-fifth birthday. “Dixie” was first sung on September 19, 1859. The place was a theatre in New York. The author hailed from Mount Vernon, Ohio, Hence, outside of the fact that “Dixie” born before the war and that it was composed in the North by a Northerner, the notion that a lost cause inspired “Dixie” is substantially correct. | lines that such great British aristocratic lenders as those just mentioned and others adopted my their day. ) insured— AT OUR EXPENSE Postmaster General Farley pleads for a united Democracy.
