SALMON FUTURE BRIGHT. During the last Territorial Legislaturs consider- able point was made that the supply of fish was rapidly being depleted in Alaskan waters and it would only be a short time until the supply was ecxhausted at the present rate of catch. But reports of the season so far indicate that those fears were for the most part considerably, exaggerated. While the run to the Westward has not held. up, South- cast Alaska districts are standing up well and, in fact, the are running far ahead of 1934, the banner year. ‘Commissioner Frank T. Bell after a swing around the circuit makes the statement that he believes it will be unnecessary to close any Alaska fishing| areas next year, which would indicate the future gional Record through the years, we wonder.—(De-|and it is now in the files of the of the salmon industry is'a lot brighter than many troit News.) would have us believe. | ANOTHER ‘WORLD WAR? “Danger of another.

Moscow is to be rebuilt into a modern city cap- able of housing 5 million people. A decree just pub-j lished orders the task to be accomplished in ten years. ‘' If the growth of the Soviet capital con-| tinues as rapid as it has been in recent years, provision for 5 million people is not too much,‘ Before the revolution the city had less than 2| million inhabitants. In 1931 the official estimate | was very nearly 3 million. In 1933 it was almost| 4 million.

Debt-weary multitudes wili heartily approve FERA'S order to purge all relief rolls of able-bodied loafers who refuse to take jobs. For a long time we have heard stories of men and women on the dole who prefer idleness at the taxpayers' expense to living by work. But in the .application. of this order great care should be exercised. The drive against loafers should become a general offensive against helpless human beings whose only sin consists of being part is a job? What is a loafer? Should a to work at a starving wage be dignified Should a man whose dole provides his family with enough to eat be branded as a loafer if he refuses to work at a wage that will not feed Should he be forced to accept such a job that may not last and thereby forfeit his fam- ily’s eligibility for relief? Humanity and intelligence should guide execu- tion of the loafer-purging order. But, by all means, get rid of the loafers.
