In response to a recent request by Gov. John W. Troy for the suspension of duty on food stuffs from Canada Secretary of the Interior Harold L. Ickes advises that he is confident that federal mediators will do all possible to secure resumption of transpor- tation to the Territory, and believes it is more de- sirable to secure normal movement of commodities than to strive for the limited relief, a suspension of duties would provide. Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper, following a discussion with President Roosevelt today said that the situation looks hopeful. The conference of all Pacific Coast Mayors now meeting in Washington, D. C., is taking action to bring about a quick settlement. The statement Saturday of L. N. West, represent- fng the San Francisco Shipping and Merchants As- sociation that “we do not know who is right or wrong. We only know who is paying the bill. We want a settlement and we do not think any party to the present controversy has the right to sit tight and pro- long the strike at the expense of the public,” is per- haps most significant of all. i Most extensive strikes have been brought to a| sent by the pressure of public opinion. The! fact that San Francisco business men are taking a | group stand strongly indicates is crystalizing for settlement. Alaska sits in the most uncomfortable spot of | all in this particular strike and while it has little | that public opinion Russ a And Germany (Cincinnati Enquirer) Back of every crisis in Europe, no matter where it takes place, there is the grim shadow of undying | hostility between Nazi Germany and Communist | Russia. There is between these two nations the most profound cleavage in political ideas. Fascism and Communism are pitted against each other in a struggle that may dominate the affairs of Europe for a gen- eration to come. It is a struggle between two antipodal ways of life. Making the antagonism more immediate is the German lust for more land, and the fact of sparsely settled areas in the Soviet Union—a tempting bait for aggressive neighbors. This is the reason why the dispute over neuirality in the Spanish civil war has such grave implications. Rather than risk a European war, France’s Socialist government went against its ultimate interest and made a comprehensive neutrality pact. If the bulk of evidence is reliable, Germany has been violating this pact extensively, and France and Russia only in strifling ways. When it probably was too late to save the consti- tutional government in Spain, the Soviet Govern- ment denounced German, Ialian, and Portuguese violations of the join neutrality. This failed to win French and British support. The risks of defying Germany were too great. Now Moscow has given notice that it no longer considers itself bound by the |neutrality pact, owing to German and Italian viola- tions of it in support of the Spanish Fascists. This brings Europe once more to the brink ot conflict. Presumably the British and French will | persuade the Russians not to act precipitately, and meantime may be able to reduce the violations of ing: NOVEMBER 16, 1936. | Secretary of State Lansing, from NOVEMBER 16. | washington, D.

Davis represented that there are about 50 people in town in need of relief, preferably work relief. Gov.

The girls’ dormitory is full. Every available rooming place at College, where the University is located, has been taken, and, according to Dr. Bunnell, requests for accommoda- tlons for the second semester have had to be refused anyone not able to obtain rooms in Fairbanks.
