ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER | THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION, | | BECOMING AL ASKA-CONSCIOUS. That the continued effort on the part of Alaskans and friends of Alaska in pointing out the necessity |advertisers, and all the time wishing he had been|laughlin and Earle Naude were | for proper air defense bases in the Territory has become fruitful, is evinced by yesterday’s Associated Press dispatch published in The Empire, that the Army proposal for the creation of six more strategic and powerful air bases was coupled before the National House of Representatives Committee with the assertion that Alaska is vunerable to a Japanese attack. Further the Army program, as presented by Brigadier General C. E. Kilbourne, Assistant Chief of Staff, recommended one of the air bases be in Alaska. i In presenting a defense bill, Representative J.| Mark Wilcox, of Florida, pointed out the strategic | position of Alaska relative to the Orient and Japan, | using a map which graphically showed the prox- imity of Alaska to Japan. Delegate Dimond also appeared and urged for proper defense in Alaska. Such news is enocuraging to all Alaskans. First, perhaps, because of the defenses it indicates will| eventually be established in Alaska. However, of almost equal interest and in some respects of greater importance is the fact that| Congress is looking more and more f@pon Alaska as an integral part of the United States, and not as a remote stepchild. This growing consciousness of the importance to Alaska aside from the commercial angle, is most | probably being expedited by the fact that the air-| plane has brought the Territory much closer to| the continental States as evinced by the many| cpmmercial flights and ajso the flights of the Army | and Navy planes last summer. Regardless of cause, it should be most encouraging to Alaskans, and stimulant to all who have and are attempting to build up the Territory. THE MAN MOUNTAIN LEAPS. Aside from burning holes in clothes, tablecloths and desks, the business end of a cigarette, it de- velops, has wonderful reviving powers, as witness the case of Man Mountain -Dean, giant wrestler. Dean, it appears, was apparently knocked out in a wrestling contest recently in San Diego by what was described as a toehold. While being carried from the ring by three firemen, two policemen and a couple of civilians, a playful spectator touched the shoulder of the 317-pound grappler with a light- ed cigarette. The Man Mountain leaped from the arms of his big escort and pursued the spectator partly around the arena, the latter successfully escaping to attend to other business elsewhere, per- haps fortunately. Ever and anon the old contention is proven anew that a little fire in the right place is an excellent cure for human frailities. Retribution Seen. (Seattle Times.) Assuming that the purse seiners ousted the fish traps, in cooperation with groups of sportsmen, State editors vic 2 form of retribution the new a few other current developments. THE Ydrive to dbolish purse seining. The South Bend Journal says “indications point to swifter than anticipatedl retribution descending on the purse sein- ers who, foolishly and shortsightedly, helped to foist | Initiative No. 77 on this State's fishing industry”;| The Ellensburg Records agrees “the chickens of the | |salmon seiners are coming home to roost and howi the opponents of Initiative 77 are chuckling—and | |who can blame them?”; The Bremerton News points | lout “the worst thing about crusading is that there| |is always a possibility of creating a sentiment o(? | warfare that is uncontrolable when once under | way”; The Friday Harbor Journal comments “it| strikes us the purse seiners were dupes and are in| the same position as the man who Killed the goose | | which laid the golden egg”; The Walla Walla Union | predicts the drive against the purse seiners “will have a lot of support, for a great many people feel | that the fish trap men were unjustly treated,” and| The Kent Advertiser asserts “the fishing industry of this State is of vital importance and should not be subject to the whims of politicians or sportsmen’s organizations.” Ambition Without Cause. (Anchorage Daily- Times.) A man is in business to make money. If he does, well and good. If he does not, he often says business is rotten, or else that his competitors are stealing it. He does not stop to think that often the cause is that his competitors are using continuous news- paper advertising and he is not; that they are getting business he should get if he were awake. He does not realize that if he does not advertise his business will just struggle along until it dies. | Maybe it will last until he dies. If it does, that | is all one can say. Both are finished. If his business lasts until he dies, he will go to Heaven—or the other place. If he goes to Heaven, he’ll have a harp. If he doesn't, he will| be shoveling coal, getting a place ready for non- good on earth. | To be a success in business and make money means a man can do more for his dependents.i his church and his home town. What more could | a man want to do? Nazi Doctrine Diagnosed. | e | | (New York Times.) Two writers in the February number of The At-| lantic Monthly try to get at the inner meaning of | Hitlerism. Barbara Spofford Shepard finds the Nazi movement is brutal, noisy and repressive, but it nevertheless embodies the “resurgence of the inner| life against a creeping paralysis” which threatens | modern society. Nazism, “below the tryanny and | the childishness, is an effort to deliver man from | the machine.” | Bertrand Russell's “The Revolt Against Reason” | announces its argument in the title. Nazism is only the latest insurrection against the authority of the human reason; it is a recurrent phenomenon in history. The characteistic traits of such revolts are an escape into mysticism, emphasis on the will, “be- lief in institutional ‘positing’ of propositions as op- posed to observatonal and inductive testing.” Its supporters cail it the claims of the heart against the head. | The striking fact about these two studies of Nazism is that they are remarkably alike in their | list of symptoms. But when it comes to causation Mrs. Shepard calls it the revolt of man against| the Machine, and Mr. Russell calls it the revolt of passion and prejudice against Reason. | Perhaps both Atlantic authors are right. But if Nazism is a revolt against Reason and against the Machine, it makes the two into allies. It is a partnership by which the Machine abviously pmms.l ‘Who nowadays has a kind work for machines? But if it turns out that the use of machines and the use of Reason have hitherto gone together, it means new prestige for our poor belabored industrialism. | Reason, on the other hand, presumably finds itself embarrassed by an enforced partnership with the Machine. Machine civilization has become al- most synonymous with capitalist civilizaton, and Bertrand Russell is certainly one friend of Reason who would hate to find himself apologizing for the | capitalists. It must not be forgotten that Nazi| philosophy rejects capitalism with other mvemions: of the Devil, such as machines, democracy, and the free play of the human mind. Radicals say that capitalism is closely bound up | with Protestantism. The Communists and Fascists | say that capitalism is closely bound up with de-| mocracy. Now it would appear that capitalism is closely bound up with Reason. This all makes a| fine character reference for capitalism. It has| been traveling in pretty good company. Attendance at the automobile shows so far held| this year is reported to be fully equal to that of the| boom days, and motor' car production for the current qugrter is approximately equal to that for the cor- resbo_nding period five years ago. It doesn't require a Bherlock Holmes fo find a relationship between the two situations, and perhaps between them and |VALENTINE SILVER DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, FEB. 13, 19 ——— ~o | HAPPY 20 YEARS AGO v e men | ——BIRTHDAY “we"we3 | The Empire extends comgratula- FEBRUARY 13, 1915 tions and best wishes today, their | The battle in the Carpathian | birthday anniversary, to the follow- | mountains at Dukla Pass, between ing: the Russians and Austrians was| TR | | FEBRUARY 13 | Mrs. James Drake R slowly progressing and lmflcauons; were that it would continue to be| a see-saw affair, with both sides g emoTmous dosseS. waxe PARISH HALL CARD slight gains in the western war PARTY ON PROGRASM FOR FRIDAY NIGHT| zone on Lorraine, particularly in | The Ladies Altar Society will, the Vosges district. | sponsor another of its delightful| card parties on Friday night, Feb- ruary 15 at the Parish Hall.
