ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION POLITICAL PROFITEERS. President Roosevelt has struck out again at what the “political profiteers,” he those who would exploit human beings for their own appropriately terms particular gain. Standing as he always has against the chosen few and in behalf of the masses of our people, the while referring particularly| to the farm his principle in these words: The thing we are all seeking is justice against exploitation on the part of those who do not care much for lives, happiness and prosperity of their neighbors. Do we have to harken back further than the| late stock market debacle to see evidence of human The President recites in those days. wiose to less than 50 President act, reiterated cardinal exploiters at their very worse? the situation of the farmer purchasing power was driven down per cent of normal, as result of the vicious activity of the ruthless chosen few and points out that these same political profiteers are today seek- ing to stir up city people in opposition of the New a Deal's farm program How can city people, unless profiteers, how they were looted savings, their homes and eventually of their jobs and means of livelihood by promises of riches through an unsound doctrine of false profits given by these self-same profiteers who today are again trying to fill them with propaganda? Is memory so short, that the millions in the cities can so easily forget the crash that left lives, homes and families shattered throughout the length and breadth of the land while they were being fed on that fallacy of two chickens in every pot? Attempt to turn city people farm program is some of the same thing that was dealt out in the declining days of the Hoover regime, | and it has earmarks of coming from very nearly the same sources. No one is holding the Agricultural Act to be perfect, but the fact that the farmer’s| purchasing power is back to 90 per cent of normal today against less than 50 two years ago shows clearly that it has benefited a large group of people in this country, and not at the expense of any other group, excepting again, of course, those same political profiteers who profit best only at the expense of human suffering. of the of their they be forget now against the AMBITIOUS GOVERNORS | It is getting along about that stage in the political | picture when ambitious governors are trying to make | themselves heard.

In Kansas, Gov. Alf M. Landon is making quite a noise about balancing the state's budget, without taking the trouble to mention the part Federal re- lief had in making that operation possible, and is be- ing boomed by some of his friends for the Republican Presidential nomination. Of course, the Governor is aware that his party has been in quite a stew about balancing the federal budget and naturally sees the possibility of that point in carrying on a campaign. Both executives probably will find as time goes along that trying to get on Presidential road on a single minor issue is quite a task; in fact, more a task than any single man has been able to accom- plish in, lo, these many years, but, true enough, they can't be blamed for trying. Of the two, however, it would appear that the gentleman from Kansas has the better chance, for even the Republicans admit they haven't found a candidate. Maybe Alf, Hoover and Borah conceding, is the Moses to lead the Grand Old Party out of the wilderness, but with relief tossed back in the lap of the states, Landon likely will find he has quite a job in Kansas keeping the voters off his neck and his now widely heralded budget balanced. Gov. Talmadge, of course, doesn't hope for anything in 1936 except a little publicity and personal recog- nition, knowing full well that the President will carry the Democratic banner, with or without the process- ing taxes, he worries so much about. Those mail flights out of Anchorage to Kenai and Kasilof are indicative of what regular air mail contracts will mean to communities all over Alaska.

We suspect something worth while is going to come out of that business conference in Washington. Already the boys are calling each other liars which is not just another one of those con- to ferences. If the States Are Impotent. (New York World-Telegram.) Much muddy thinking about the Constitution and States’ rights will be clarified by reading the decision of Federal Judge Elwood Hamilton, of Ken- tucky, upholding the Guffey Coal Control Act. The people of the States, he said, gave to the Congress the right to promote the general welfare in cases where the States could not do this acting alone. The facts show that the States alone could not rehabilitate the bituminous coal industry. Inas- much as coal is an interstate industry Congress can legislate concerning it from the beginning of its movement until its ultimate delivery to a con- sumer or producer. This means from the time the | miner begins to dig. “The Congress,” he said, “should first determine if the act proposed is in the interest of the general | welfare; second, can the States acting independently the | accomplish the result; third, if not, should central government take action, and, fourth, search the Constitution for authority to carry into a sta- tutory form the demands of the people for govern- mental action. If State action is impotent, Federal action is imperafive if public necessities de- mand.” . It is, he said, “constitutionally and economic- ally absurd” to expect the States to control products nationally distributed. “To deny power in such a field to the national government is tantamount to saying there shall be no legislation When the States fail, or unable to perform a public duty, the doctrine of States’ rights should not be a barrier to the Federal Government rendering an essential service to the human race.” Here is an opinion that goes considerably beyond narrow legalistic interpretations of the Constitu- tion. It goes beyond the Schechter decision. But it is realistic in facing the facts of our great interstate industries that sprawl across State lines defying States to regulate them in the interests people. Legalists will quarrel with it; so will industries that want neither State nor Federal interference” in their business. A great majority of Americans will applaud it as a sound, sensible and human restatement of con- ditions as they are.

'IHIIIIIIIIfiIIlIIIIIIlImlllIIIIIIIVNIIIIII'IlIiI'I’IIIQ from 95¢ to S20.00 e DECEMBER 10, 1915, That Edward Krause, charged with the killing of William Christie, not come to trial until late in Feb- ruary or early in March is the un- official opinion prevailing in Ju- neau. Until that time, police and mar- shals will have a great deal to do. There remains the finding of the body, upon which any conclusive evi- dence other than circumstantial must rest. If Krause took Christie away in his launch, the problem re- mains: how and where did he di pose of him? There are several possible solu- tions. The most plausible rests on the testimony of Lynn D. Adsit, who lives on the Salmon Creek Road, who says that on the night Christie disappeared, he saw Krause's launch |anchored in the channel opposite his home, and that in the morning t had moved away. It is thought, therefore, that Chris- tie's body will be found, if it ever is found, in that locality, either bur- ied in the tideflats or weighted down into the cahnnel. Police have definitely proved, at least, that the Blixendorf typewriter in Krause's possession is the ma- were written. Krause accounts for his possession of the signatures of Christie and | Plunkett in a most plausible manner. The Christie signature, he says, is off the warrant, which Christie tors up in his launch as he was ferrying him to the Juneau side after sub- poenaing him on a subpoena which he declares he believed to be genu- ine. He said the piece containing the signature happened to remain in the boat and he picked it up later. The Plunkett signature he says he tore off a note Plunkett wrote him early last March, “so I could remem- ber his name.” Mrs. H. L. Faulkner was reported ill. . Miss Crystal Snow, wh@, had been absent from school several:days, was able to return to work foday. Further illness caused an unusually small attendance at the Elks' Ball, although those who attended report- ed a gala time. Several original cos- tumes were reported, including those of W. R. Garster and J. Latimer Gray, who were dressed to resemble bottles—one of the Alaska Soda Company and another of a famous mineral water. Weather: Maximum, 26; minimum 20. Rain. SHOP IN JUNEAU, FIRST!
