"ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION A QUARTER MILLION FOR JUNEAU Few cities, large or small, are favored with the prospect that is to be Juneau's this summer. Many of us do not stop to realize it ,but at least a quarter of a million dollars in new money is coming into this ; between now and next September, Half of the $64,000 Nenana ice been awarded to a group of Juneau men. Around June 15, the bonus bonds will start coming to veterans of Gastineau Channel. American Legion officials place the number of veterans in this im- mediate vicinity at around 200; more than 150 of them are enrolled with the local post of the Legion. pool already has The National average bonus payment set by the veterans' bureau, considering loans already made, is $491 per man. Those who handled bonus appli- cations here state it probably will average better than $500 per veteran in this community. That that at least $100,000 will come here in bonus money and it probably will be closer to $150,000. From around the first of June until September some 20,000 summer tourists will visit Juneau. Ad- vance bookings reveal that all the boats will be load- ed. Some vision greater influx than last season it can be conservatively estimated at 20,000, and if each one spends as little as $5 here it can be readily seen that somebody in Juneau is going to protit to the tune of around $100,000. Some will spend a great deal more than $5, others may not part with a nickel while the boat is in port, but it is safe to assume that our tourist business is worth at least $100,000. means but There’s the picture for the next four months. But let’s go a little further. The winners of the ice money already have indicated a large part of theirs is going toward clear- ing up old obligations and generally rehabilitating themselves and their families. And the bonus, what of that? Some of the veterans doubtless will hold their bonds as urged by the governmenmt and collect three per cent annual interest on them, and it's a sound idea. But there are veterans with homes to be re- modeled, new ones to be built. Some will raise the mortgage, or a part of it, on the old homestead. Others see a grand opportunity to buy a boat, a new automo- bile or a multitude of other things for which they never before had the spare cash. And then there is the needs of the veteran’s family. Johnny needs his tonsils out or Susie should have her teeth fixed up; mother needs some conveniences for the house. All the needs that flesh is heir to are subjects to be served when money is available. While the bulk of the tourist money naturally goes to the transportation companies, much of it is spread around in various business houses, espec- fally those which make an effort to offer something inviting to the traveler and visitor. He comes pre- pared to spend if he is offered something legitimate to spend for. He is just as much a business pump primer as the veteran and ice pool winner, and some- times we may have too much of a tendency to forget that he is an annual event.

Borah’s Issues (New York Times) Winding up his campaign for Republican votes in Illinois, Senator Borah emerges as the champion of three issues. He is against “entanglements” with Eu- rope. He is against “monopoly” in industry. And he | is against reciprocal trade treaties. With the first two | of these three issues he has long been identified, but | in Tllinois (as in Wisconsin) he has lost no opportunity to emphasize the third. The Corn Belt has heard him thunder denunciation of reciprocal trade treaties in, general and of the Canadian treaty in particular. Why | should American farmers be forced to compete with foreigners Why should Canada be permitted to | sell us wheat, oats and corn? On certain farm pro- ducts Mr. Borah would “build an embargo, if neces- | sary, around the United States.” Farm imports an-i ! increasing “from 300 to 1,000 per cent a year.” The ‘ greatest problem facing American agriculture is the | | protection of the home market |z It is true, as Mr. Borah have increased—n some ca: measured on a percentage basis. But this is only be- | cause any increase from a figure approximately at zero to a figure moderately above it looks large on a percentage basis. In reality, farm imports have been small indeed when measured in terms of our produc- tion, and TIllinois farmers are invited to shudder un- necessarily when Mr, Borah invoked the hobgoblin of foreign competition. During the fiscal year 1935 our imports of wheat for domestic consumption amounted to 1.6 per cent of our average annual production of wheat from 1928 through 1932. Our imports of oats were 1.3 per cent and our imports of corn 0.8 per cent. Mr. Borah precisely reverses the real situation when he says that the greatest problem facing American Ag- riculture is the production of a home market already well protected by natural advantages, as well as by a tariff. The real problem is the recovery of foreign markets, for it was in suech markets that we sold, before the depression, no less than 55 per cent of our cotton, 40 per cent of our tobacco, 18 per cent of our wheat and 33 per cent of our lard. The policy of reci- procal trade treaties is aimed essentially at the restora- tion of foreign markets, primarily for the benetit of the farmer, and this is the only action taken during the entire course of the depression which strikes at the real fundamentals of the American farm problem. Mr. Borah would undo what little has been done that farm imports sensationally, when | “Peep Show Technique Used in Vitamin Test,” Doubtless for Vitamins See and Ah.—(Ohio State Jour- | nal.)
