ALASKA CIRCULATION CUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION AIR TRAVEL FACILITIES. Delegate Dimond in commenting on the first air base in Alaska under the new Wilcox bill points to another request in connection with aerial develop- ment in the North that is equally if not more important. It is the urged allotment of $2900,000 for commercial airfield work, including new airports, improvements on the present fields, markings and other inuch needed development. Here is one of the principal things that will not only make flying safer and more convenient in the Territory but it would be a huge step toward devel- oping everything else in Alaska. Given airfields in advantageous localities and mining would reap one of the greatest benefits. Other industries would be developed and profit as well if aerial transportation could be made safer through better facilities and remote areas reached by establishing airports. The Rogers-Post and Hines planes disasters have left a blot on the flying record in the North which could be erased in large degree by giving the Terri- tory the proper aerial transportation facilities. “THAT RANCH OVER THERE.” As a part of the eulogy delivered by Dr. J. Whit- comb Brougher at the burial services of Will Rogers, the clergyman referred to a foreword written by the humorist for the late Charles Russell's book, “Trails Plowed Under.” Russell, the Montana cowboy artist, Dr. Brougher explained, requested the foreword, but before Rogers could “get around to it the author of the volume died. “So Will wrote it in the form of a letter,” Dr. Brougher said, “and this is what he wrote”: There ain't much news here to tell you. You know the Big Boss sent a hand over and got you so quick, Charlre. But I guess He needed a good man, pretty bad. I hear they been workin' short-handed over there prétty much all the time. I guess it's hard for Him to get hold of good men. They're jest scarce everywhere . . .

In an effort to give a more thorough in- sight into the various measures adopted, The Empire is presenting a series of summaries of the major bills passed into law. J | THE NEUTRALITY ACT Directs that, upon the outbreak or during the progress of war between foreign States, the Presi- dent shall proclaim the fact and thereafter it shall be unlawful to export arms, ammunition or imple-| ments of war from any place in the United States| or its possessions, to any port of such belligerent States, or to any neutral port for trans-shipment to, or for the use of, a belligerent country. Violations of this provision are punishable by $10,000 fine or five years' imprisonment or both. Except with jrespect to prosecutions committed or forfeitures | incurred prior to March 1, 1936, this section and all | proclamations issued ‘thereunder shall not be ef- fective after February 29, 1936. Establishes a National Munitions Control Board consisting of the Secretaries of State, Treasury, |War, Navy and Commerce to carry out the act. | [listing the arms they manufacture, export or import. 'The registrants would pay a fee of $500 and, upon |receipt of this, the Secretary of State would issue a registration certificate valid for five years. portation and exportation of arms, ammunition and | implements of war as the board shall prescribe. Forbids any person to export, or export” from the United States, or to import to the | United States any of the munitions referred to in‘ the act, without a license from the board. feiture of munitions and vessel. any war in which the United States is a neutral. Directs that whenever, during any war in which the United States is a neutral, the President finds| and foreign nations, protection of lives of American citizens, protection of the commercial interests of | the United States and its citizens, or the “security | of the United States” are involved, he “shall so proclaim,” and thereafter “no citizen of the United | States shall travel on any vessel of any belligerent nation except at his own risk,” unless in accordance with rules prescribed by the President. THE AIR-MAIL ACT OF 1935 Approved August 14, 1935 Amends Section 3 (a) of the Air Mail Act of June 12, 1934, so as to authorize the Postmaster | General to make the initial period of contracts for carrying mail three years instead of one year. i Permits the Postmaster General to grant exten- sions of any route, provided that the aggregate mile- age of all such extensions on any route in effect at one time shall not exceed 250 miles. | Authorizes “at least three” transcontinental prl-i mary routes, instead of four, repeals the require- ment that the coastal routes be designated as pri- mary routes, and provides that no route of less than 750 miles shall be designated as a primary route. Fixes a route mileage limit of 32,000 miles in lieu of the present limit of 29,000 miles, and an| annual aggregate of 45,000,000 airplane miles, in lieu of the present maximum 4,000,000, and authorizes the} Postmaster General to prescribe schedules and to| utilize passenger or express flights of the contractor whenever the needs of the air mail service may so require. Amends Section 6 (a) of the Air Mail Act of 1934 so as to direct the Interstate Commerce Commission old joshers was jest waiting for you to pop in with all the latest ones. What kind of a bird is Washington and Jefferson. 1 bet they are regular fellers when you meet 'em, ain't they? Most big men are. I would like to see the bunch that is gathered around you the first time you tell the one about putting the limburger cheese in the old nestor's whiskers. 7 Don’t tell that, Charlie, until you get Lincoln around you. He would love that one. I bet you and him kinda throw in together when you get well acquainted. When I get to think about all them top hands up there if I could jest hold a horse- wrangling job with 'em I wouldn't mind fol- lowing that wagon myself. You'll run onto my old Dad up there, Charlie, for he was a real cowhand. And I bet he is running a wagon. And you will pop into some well-kept ranch-house over under some cool shady trees and you'll be asked to have dinner and it'll be the best one you ever had in your life. Well, when you are thanking the women folks you jest tell the sweet-looking little old lady that you know her boy back on an outfit you usta rope for and tell the daughters that you knew their brother and if you see a cute little rascal running around there, kiss him for me. Well I can't write you any more, Charlie the darn paper is all wet. It must be raining in this old bunkhouse. Of course, we are all just a hangin’ on here as long as we can. I don't know why we hate to go, we know it's better there. Maybe it's because we haven't done any- thing that will live after we're gone. From your old friend Will. OBSERVE THE LAW. With the duck season opening Friday, the Alaska Game Commission is leaving it largely up to thc hunters to observe the regulations which provide fo shooting only between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. Despite th fact that the law is not in keeping with condition in Alaska, nothing will be gained by breaking it an violations might have the tendency to react agains a change next year rather than to further it.

Places the burden of establishing the inefficiency of existing rates upon the contractor; provides that the commission may cancel a contract and permits a contractor to terminate his contract for cause upon sixty days' notice. Directs the Interstate Commerce Commission, in determining rates of compensation, to disregard any losses resulting from unprofitable operations of non- mail schedules of the contractor, and provides tnat the rates fixed by the commission shall not exceed the limits prescribed in Section 3 (a) of the Air Mail Act of 1934. Requires the commission to report to Congress not later than January 15, 1936, with respect to ;ontracts on routes numbered 7, 12, 13, 14, 19, 25, <17 and 32, whether fair and reasonable rates would se in excess of 33 1-3 cents a mile. Amends Section 13 of the Air Mail Act of 1934 0 as to continue in effect decisions of the National Labor Board, or its successor in authority, not- vithstanding the fact that such decisions by their >wn terms may have no force by reason of lapse of time.

He may lelude himself into believing that he can frisk wound as he did at 80 or 90, but the years take heir toll and eventually he has to admit that Jouth and even middle-age has passed. Take Solomon Ricker of St. Paul, Neb., for in- tance. He<is said to be 114 now and, while he vas released from a hospital after a week, the shysicians tell him his heart isn't what it once vas and that he can't do the things he once did That's the trouble about age; so many things one nust give up. Solomon ‘has gone along in his accustomed man- ier all through his eighties and nineties and hadn’t loticed any particular let-down, even up to 112 Chen he slipped and fell while chopping wood and uffered injuries which irked him considerably, be- ause he had to stay around the house more or ess. Finally the injuries necessitated the brief 10spital treatment. But Solomon knows that when le was ninety nobody would have got him into a 10spital over a mere fall.
