With the departure yesterday of E. M. (Winn) Goddard, with his wife and son for the newly created post of Superintendent of Wardens at Ket- chikan, Juneau loses a citizen who has given his energy and abilities fully, and unstintedly not only to his official position with the Alaska Game Com- mission but to the community as well. At the Chamber of Commerce luncheon honoring Mr. Goddard, President R. E. Robertson admirably expressed the feeling of the community when he said: ‘We cannot weigh in money the value of service to this community by Mr. Goddard For the last two summers, particularly, he has been of the greatest aid in welcoming visitors and giving them a wonderful im- pression of Jun Mr, Goddard of our former Chamber Presidents, is 2 hard worker. I would call him our premier committee worker. We can only note his leaving with regret, and, in turn, offer Ketchikan dmgratulauons for the fine man they are getting. In addition to his activities in the Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Goddard was an active worker in the Alford John Bradford Post of the American Legion, and other local organizations. The best wishes of this community accompany Mr. Goddard to his new post, and we feel certain that he will soon be filling an important con- structive position in the community life of Ketchi- kan, as he so admirably did here. War in the Back Yard. | (New York Times.) After reminding himself that he spent Christmas Day nineteen years ago on his famous peace ship, Mr. Henry Ford has had -something to say about war and peace. One thing which he says he learned on that discouraging jaunt to the trouble zone was that wars were fought for money. Some are and some are not; but that is not a sufficiently novel idea to merit lengthy analysis. Much more interesting is the great industrialist's theory that when war is brought into everybody's back yard, as it may be by the further development of the airplane, there will be less clamor for war than of war might neither discredit it nor insure peace. No one knows befter than Henry Ford how great a part the automobile has played in changing our social landscape. Along with its many services to society, the motorcar has done one conspicuous dis- service, as he must be keenly aware. It has made crime highly mobile and ubiquitous. It has brought organized crime out of the big city underworld and has carried it into every rustic nook that can be reached by a good road. Nothing is more deplored by police officials than the public’s failure to rise in revolt against this omnipresence of physical danger and of moral corruption. The likelinood of a crime in anybody's back yard has greatly en- hanced the thrills which the law-abiding American derives from vicarious contact with the criminal world through fiction, motion pictures and the daily news. Might not a greater war risk, due to better communications, be a greater stimulus to war fever? History seems to bear out the thory that the closer war is brought the more “glamorous” does the warrior become in the public’s sight—wherefore the more willing the warriors. The high titles and prerogatives of all of Europe's aristocracies were conceded to them as warrior castes when they raged to and fro through' their neighbors' back yards in tireless feuds, looting, burning and killing the inno- cent bystander with an intimate and personal atten- tion which modern warfare can seldom rival. During our own Civil War great sections of the South were swamped under the ruinous tide again and again Sherman said it was hell; but in the South it was the humiliation of “reconstruction” that was cursed, while the tradition of war glory still transcends the tradition of war misery there.

Robertson {and young son returned to Juneau on the Mariposa after an extended | | visit in the States. | C. C. Whipple and Mrs. Whipple | arrived from Eagle River on the | Georgia. Secretary of Commerce consists chiefly of a sum- | mary of the outstanding business and financial do-‘ The | velopments of the fiscal year under review. twelve months from July, 1933, to June, 1934, con- stitute a more cheerful period to. write about than any fiscal year which has fallen to the lot of a Secretgry of Commerce since 1929. If this period in- cludes the slump which began in August of last year and continued until November, it also includes the subsequent recovery and the impressive forward movement of the early months of 1934. On the story told in this report the curtain falls at the end of June, shortly after a new recession of business was beginning. For the fiscal year as a whole, however, Mr. Roper is able to claim sub- stantial gains. The Federal Reserve Board's index of industrial production stood 24 per cent above the average for the preceding year. Factory employ- ment was up by 26 per cent and factory payrolls by 43. Gains were made in electrical power produc- tion, in freight traffic carried by the railways, in the value of department-store sales, commodity prices, in farm trade. As against these gains, however, certain large problems were still awaiting solution. The report sums up four of them in a single sentence: The fiscal year closed with the capital- goods industry still greatly depressed, private construction very low, unemployment large and relief demands making a steady and severe drain on the national budget. Mr. Roper suggests in his report no plan of attack upon these problems, possibly because most of the necessary measures lie outside the bailiwick of his own department. But in a recent addre he clearly indicated the nature of his own solu- tions. He would seek to revive the capital-goods industry and private construction, thereby increas- income and in foreign ing employment, by encouraging the investment of | private capital, by reopening foreign markets and | by eliminating the regressive features of NRA. As for the problem of- relief, he would restore re- | sponsibility to the States and municipalities as soon as possible in order to relieve the Federal Govern- ment of what has become a topheavy burden.
