It is acquiring the grief of the metropolitan centers—the traffic problem Chief of Police Roy Hoffman, appearing at the meet- ing of the City Council last night, estimated there are approximately 900 automobiles and trucks oper- ating in and around Juneau every day. Substance of his remarks was that something had to be done about clearing the streets of parked machines in order to keep traffic moving. Any one who has driven or rid- den much about the main streets will appreciate the weight of his reasoning. There are occasions when any driver, something less than a Houdini, would have considerable diffi- culty traversing the block between Seward and Franklin on Front Street. Always a busy section, a couple dozen cars parked along each side of the street and a few parked for a few moments in the street while the occupant is shopping makes the situation comparable to Third and Pike in Seattle along about the noon on Saturday with the eption that we herd our traffic in Juneau while they steer it in a given direction in Seattle. It is unfortunate that we can't go along herding it. It is a'nice, convenient, easy system. But Juneau is growing up. We get a few more cars every year, but the streets stay the same width. Net result Something has to be done about the tratfic problem if machines are to move about the streets with a degree of safety and dispatch Chief Hoffman has, for one thing, decided to enforce a one-hour parking limit the principai streets. It is the first natural step, and a good one. It.may. piove a diftle inconvenient to some at.times, but on the whole should not work any particular hardship. The fact is such action may develop the thing that Juneau needs most in solving the traffic problem. That is parking lots. There are a number of vacant lots adjacent to the business district which, it would appear, could be fixed up as parking places. The owners might even raise their tax money by charging a small monthly or daily fee. A downtown motor ramp, such as are found in many of the larger cities of the States, is not an impossible outgrowth of the condition. Those things will work themselves out. But it is ‘imperative that something be done to clear our narrow streets of congested traffic. It is a safety measure both for car owners and pedes- trians. No one is at fault. It is merely a condition arising from increase in automobile traffic. Full co-operation of every one with the authorities in solving the problem is the surest and quickest way out. on . . . . There is something to think about In another matter brought before the City Council last night. Mayor Goldstein called attention to the large num- ber of liquor dispensing places in the city. Casually counting up without the record, the officials learned that there are between 30 and 40 establishments in Juneau dispensing liquor including restaurants serv- ing beer and wine with meals. It was the Mayor's thought that there were plenty of them. In fact, he expressed himself of the opinion that there pro- bably are more than enough; that the situation might not only be offensive to some of the citizens of Juneau but that outsiders are prone to remark about the multitude of liquor places they see in the city when they come ashore from the boats. Other members of the Council brought up the other side of the question; that, after all, they are legitimate businesses and limiting the number might be in effect restraint of trade. There is a degree of logic in both arguments.

It points forward. It does not rant and strut and | In effect it says, calmly and simply and reserved- ly: “We meant it, and we will keep on from here.” “We have” and “we will continue” recur again and again as the theme. The “net” is, carry on. That | tone appears most significantly in the part which | deals with the Constitution. No dramatics here. But rather a tone of firm patience. Dealing in a wide and inclusive way with the na- tion’s problems, such as wages, hours, child labor,| working conditions, floods, dust storms, droughts, neutrality, questions of State or Federal approach, the platform says in substance We have tried, we have met obstacles, we will try again to see whether we can do the job without a change in the Constitution—but do the job we will, and not confine ourselves to the single phase which | has been belatedly recognized by the Republican op- position To all those who had expected something rabid, the Democratic platform of 1936 will be a deep disap- pointment. It will reassure the great mass of rea- sonable Americans that the Roosevelt Administra- tion if given four more years of power will yield not an inch in its purpose to restore prosperity and pro- mote the safety and happiness of the people. Since any political platform is relative, in the | sense that it must compete with the platform of the opposition, here is the contrast, as we see it, with the one that was born in Cleveland: Whereas the Republican platform looked forward | with trepidation, backward with longing and side- | wise with apprehension, the Democratic looks only in | one direction—straight ahead along the course ready charter. Whereas the former was full of contradictions, giving the appearance of having been constructed by liberals shoveling in one paragraph and reactionaries the mext, there is in the Democratic platform that precious element called unity, than which there is nothing more potent, in literature or in politics. | | Where Credit Is Due (Cincinnati Enquirer) President Roosevelt's veto record is a long onc Of the 1936 grist of Congress, he approved 880 bills and vetoed 85. This brings his total of bills vetoed to 221. In fact, this is more than any other Presi- dent except Cleveland vetoed in a four-year term and Mr. Roosevelt’s term is shorter than any other, | due to the constitutional amendment changing the dates of inauguration and of congressional sessions. Most of the bills vetoed deserved precisely that fate. Many of them were private claim bills — pay- ments of money to individuals and corporations who | had no valid claim under existing laws. Others were minor appropriation bills which would have increased expenditures unnecessarily. One was the soldiers’ bonus bill, which was passed over his veto. Having so much talent for saying “no” to the Congress, Mr. Roosevelt might be expected to say “no” more frequently to his advisers when they come along with visionary suggestions for putting the gov- ernment into some new enterprise. But it seems to be harder to say “no” to colleagues whose relationship is closer than that of Congressmen. A veto is rather an impersonal act, being a rejection of the action of a whole body of men. The more difficult way to say “no"” is to a close adviser who would be pained and grieved at a rebuff. al- Some have suggested that hereafter the ballyl\ool and monkey business be cut out of national conven- tions.
