His platform committee left him woefully short of ammunition to carry for- ward. About all he can do is lay claim to the Con- stitution as a sacred Republican document and con- tend that relief administered through States and local agencies is superior to the present system. It is a big order to convince an enlightened electorate on such a platform. No one is worried about the Constitution, which the Republicans for want of something else have taken over verbally as own, and relief, while conceded a difficult problem, is admitted in all camps. Even the Republican key- noter made the amazing statement that the hungry had to be fed, and it is assumed that Mr. Landon probably will go along on the age-old fact that food | is necessary to existence, albeit, his budget in Kansas was balanced with the aid of thirty million in Federal funds. There may be much truth in the suggestion that Governor Landon’s glory hour is now; his darkest hours in November when the ballots are counted. Perhaps Albert White passed up a golden oppor- tunity for Alaska publicity by not casting his own vote for Borah as he planned, even as Wisconsin andl West Virginia. Tt was about all there was left to| achieve.

Even a stage line was helpful. Alaska is not looking toward the coming of railroads. The people of the territory are betting on aviation. In 1929 there were only eight planes in the Alaska service. They carried a total that year of 2171 pas- sengers, flew 33,000 plane miles, 273,000 passenger miles and carried 118,000 pounds of f{reight and express. In 1935 there were 75 planes that carried 13,000 passengers, flew 1,600,000 plane miles, 2,100,000 pas- senger miles and carried more than 1,700,000 pounds of freight and expre: Soviet’s Naval Power of it (Washington Star) Manifestly the Soviet is determined to become a naval power on a scale commensurate with her vast ind far-flung defensive necessities.

Burford & Co. “Our doorstep is worn by satisfied customers” 20 YEARS AGO From The Eiapire JUNE 12, 1916, Former President Theodore Roose- velt declined to accept the Progres- sive nommation at the Convention in Chicago. Following the receipt of Col. Roosevelt's telegram an- nouncing his decision, the Progres- sive convention adjourned. Republican leaders at the Chicago convention did not make a secret of their disappointment over the results of the meet. They did not want Charles Evans Hughes but were forced to choose between him and Roosevelt, and the great ma- jority of the delegates regarded the defeat of the former President as one matter of paramount import- ance. Former Vice-President Charles W. Fairbanks said: “I was not a candidate for Vice-President but the convention nominated me and adjourned before my telegram de- clining the nomination was re- ceived, and I feel that it is my duty to accept.” It was announced that Secretary of War Newton D. Baker would be President Wilson's representative at the Democratic National Conven- tion. He was to leave Washington. D. C. for St. Louis immediately and carried with him practically the complete draft of the Democratic platform. According to the finding of Judge yJennings, Juneau would be “wet” for the following year. The sealed votes cast at the election were counted and, with the letters from peesons whose names were on the census roll, gave the wets a total of 1135 to 382 votes for the “drys.” Leaving aboard the Al-Ki enroute » Seattle was S.
