J. B. McAuliffe last wcvk] takes from the ranks of Juneau citizens one of its outstanding members and leaves a vacancy that will be heard to fill. Although having made his residence here only a little more than five years Dr. McAuliffe had become an outstanding figure in the community and had gained a wide circle) of friends who mourn his sudden death at the| comparatively young age of 39. Not only was he widely and favorably known in Juneau but he had countless friends throughout the Territory. He had served on the Revenue Cutter, Bear before coming here to be physician in charge| of the Government Hospital and during the World War served with distinction officer in the United States Army. iie was a graduate of Louis- ville Medical School of the University of Kentucky, as an his native State. A brilliant future may have awaited this young man stricken in the prime of life but in the brief years that were awarded him he had carved a worthy and commendable career. His passing is a severe lcss to community and friends and to Mrs. McAuliffe and those sadden relatives go the con- dolences of an entire city. MIGHT HELP MINING. Many been made for the use relief tating human beings and one that more than the usual 'dP‘rPE o.\ merit was presented recently to Wash- ington officials by B. D. Stewart, Territorial Com- missioner of Mines, who has just returned from two months in the suggestions have of funds in reha appears to have national capital. Commissioner Stewart’s plan would organize ambitious young men now in the Territory into groups which would be sent out into the field under the direction of experienced mining men and pros- pectors to learn somecthing about the fundamental principles of cbtaining minerals from the earth. It might be worked out something along the line of the Civillan Conservation Corps which has proved an outstanding success. As Mr, Stewart pointed out there are many young men in Alaska who could be interested in such an idea. Most of them are without funds and came to the Territory with the vague idea of pros- pecting. Some of them know nothing about the business; wouldn't know a color if they saw it, but they have two prime requisites, youth and enthus- iasm. Others, no doubt, would have to be taught how to take care of themselves in the out-of-doors, something which would be of great value to them whether they continued in the mining game or not. Thus the plan would have a two-fold purpose.| Not only would it directly benefit the young men themselves through building up their health and knowledge but it would get potential prospectors out into the great spaces which are Alaska and in which there is untold mineral wealth awaiting the locating and development. The Commissioner has no thought of importing men from the outside for such a venture but would Price Says New Deal Trend Dull’s Left-Wing’s Battle-ax |infant, |“court attache,” | was |and |woman would |splendid must be the dignity of our Representatives | |that they have none to extend in saving human = | embarrassment. |to tellectual Samsons in the House Chambers. Hilda Janc, no. aware of the House dignity became hungry, and Mrs. Parker in perfect maternal fashioned rested the little one in the crook of her arm and nursed her. 'Twas no time at all until a or should we say House employee, the Parker elbow with the summons w0 vacate at once. The family shamefacedly filed out. Of course, the gallery of the auspacious House of Representatives is no nursery, but how weighty important must have been the proceedings of the House thal one poor little Tennessee farm disrupt the train of thought. How at How proud the mothers of the nation must be of those infant sons now grown rule as representatives of the people and so enshrouded in importance that the nursing of one infant would leave them horrified to the point of | eviction. One wonders whether ignorance on the part lof one calls for a greater display of rudeness on the part of others? However, we may have overlooked something. Perhaps they were all bottle babies The psychology of the Chinese is ever baffling. Now comes report that some 2,000 Chinese bandits sent word out ahead that they would sack the city of Peiping at a certain time.

(Cincinnati Enquirer.) When, a short time ago, most of us were being solicited by mail or in person to join the chain- {letter movement, the Federal Government was re- iported to be active through the Post Office in |stamping out the scheme as a fraud and a lottery But over night, as it seemed, the chain letters digappeared, and, however effective Post Office authorities may have been in isolated instances, there is every reason to suppose that the scheme fell from entirely natural causes. It did not take a harassed public very long to find that the quickest way to dispose of those who were soliciting them for participation in the chains was to offer to sell them a letter. The time came when everyone was selling and no one was buying Where have we seen something like that before? Was there not a day when the same thing hap- pened on the stock exchanges? Was there not a time when something very similar happened abroad, particularly printing presses were turning out new pieces of colored paper? The time came when there were no takers. ‘There are many people who scorn the study of to see anything in them of practical value. Their background contains nothing reminiscent that there was a time when all Holland went wild in the pursuit of tulip bulbs, which soared to values almost fabulous—only to rot unwanted afterward. They know nothing of John Law and the Mississippi Bubble and what it did to the fiscal affairs of France. People are ever looking for a way to make the world rich by taking in each other's washing. We still have hopes that by putting up a small sum we can pull down & large one without making any effort. This is particularly likely to happen in times of economic disturbance.

Several recent events, including the Supreme Court NRA decision, | the President’s tax message, and the trenc of legislation in Congress, | have cast long shadows into next year's presidential campaign. Sometimes these prior indications are deceptive, but as matters stand today it is difficult to see that much change can take place as re- gards certain basic issues on which Mr. Roosevelt has committed him- self Briefly these issues are: Mr. Roosevelt wants a redistri- bution of wealth, He wants to break up large fortunes when they pass from one hand to another by in- heritance or gift. He wants bigger income taxes for the biggest in- comes, and the biggest corpora- tions. He wants to smash some of the largest.combinations of indus- try, not only in the utilities field, but in all fields. He wants unem- ployment and old age insurance for workers, and he wants the Federal Government to carry on in some way regulating labor and industrial | congitions after the fashion of the NRA. Where does all of this, taken to- | gether, lead? On the one hand, it already has |aroused great resentment and ap- | prehension in industry, which al- | ways is an important factor in poli- |tics; and it also has stirred up bit- ter opposition among those who be- lieve the constitution forbids “regi- mentation” and likewise frowns on |the taking of property from one class to confer it on another. | On the other hand, it already has |taken much of the edge off left- wing opposition to the Adminis- tration. Scnator Long’s thesis has been a redistribution of wealth; Mr. Roose- velt is for that, to a lesser degree. Dr. Townsend wants old age pen- sions; Mr. Roosevelt insists on old age pensions of less sweeping pro- portions, Senator Norri: wants to strip the “power interests” of their influence; s0 does Mr. Roosevelt. Upton Sinclair advocates inter- vention of government to end pov- erty; sc does Mr. Roosevelt. The Farmer-Laborites propose to “protect” the farmer and the labor- er by direct action; so does Mr. Roosevelt. Trend Quiets Left This is not saying that the Presi- | |dent accepts fully any of these left- | wing ventures. The practical results do demon- | strate, however, that the trend of his policies has a mollifying effect 'all along the left front, and a dis- Mr. Roosevelt's left in 1936, and to | promote the prospect of a very de- termined consolidation of sentiment | on the conservative right. | That, in turn, is highly interest- ing in view of the apparent gravi- tation of Republican sentiment to- | ward the conservative viewpoint. IH hints strongly at a campaign based, | more completely than any other in our time, on one clear-cut issue. e MRS. VANDERBILT DIES INN. Y.
