Competing against large cities in the district which comprises British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana as well as Alaska, this small and but recently organized club presented its case in such a forceful manner at District Conference this spring in Spokane that it won the popular vote of that convention for the '3 conference. But was meeting in Hood River, Ore. Now comes word that President C. D. Beale and the Rev. O. L. Kendall of the local club have been able to swing the Hood River executives session into line for Juneau, this city get- ting the district conference by a vote of 30 to 13. It is a great achievement for the local club and for the entire community which has been back of the ¥lotarians in their efforts and it means that Juneau will be host next May to the largest convention ever held in the Territory. It is conservatively estimated that the Rotary gathering will bring between 1,000 and 1500 visitors to this city. Taking the smaller figure, it can be safely predicted that their arrival will bring at least $10,000 a day into this city. And the convention is for three days, meaning around $30,000 in new money into this community. Thus in cold dollars and cents this convention means a great deal But aside from its monetary value to Juneau and the steamship lines which will carry the travelers north, the convention has far greater. significance final decision left to the Presidents’ It will be the first large gathering of its kind ever Its success may well stamp Alaska as a favorable place for a convention with the result that other large delegations will head north to see and enjoy this great wonderland. The National Editorial Association has been considering it for several years. Education groups have talked of conventioning in the Territory. Several omen have been bitten, so far lightly, by the Alaska bug. The task of this entire community is to help the Rotary Club make this District Conference such a success next spring that other groups will turn to Alaska for their annual sessions. It is more than just a Rotary convention. It is an Alaska conven- tion and as Alaskans, whether we belong to Rotary or not, we must throw our entire energy into making every one of those visiting Rotarians mighty glad that they decided to hold the conference in the north. Again we say, congratulations to the Rotarians. held in the Territory. THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 15, 1937 1 Their ideal is service. "\:n\uul\ and Alaska well.

There were 43 in the group that voted with the President | at least twice as often as they voted against him; 21 in the middle-of-the-road group, which voted with the President about as often as against him; and 31| in the reactionary group. The most startling aspect of the survey is that not a single Republican is to be found among the liberals—or even among the middle-of-the-roader: On the basis of the tabulation, the least feactionary Republican in the Senate is Frazier, of North Dakota, | who voted with the President four times, against him | eight The issues on which the Republican Senators made this unenviable record were not mere personal whims of President Roosevelt.

In 1936, the majority of the American people \axd with their ballots how they stood on these issue and what they wanted their Government to do. The| Republicans in the Senate held out against the de- mands of the American people while President Roose- velt fought to put them through On the face of the record of this last session, all talk of the Republican party becoming ‘“liberal- jzed” is nonsense. It is proceeding from conservatism to blind reaction. Meanwhile, what of the Democratic party? Is it following President Roosevelt's lead? Is it really be- coming a liberal party? The score shows that 40 Democratic Senators voted in the definitely pro-New Deal group. Significantly, at the top of this list are Guffey, of Pennsylvania (with a perfect score); Brown, of Michigan; Green, of Rhode Island; Hughes, of Delaware—none of them in the Senate before the liberal rebirth of the party Outstanding liberal among the older Senators was Robert F. Wagner, fighting New Yorker. In the middle-of-the-road group there are 20 more Democrats and the proportion of veterans of the old and ineffective Democratic party increases. | In the reactionary group are 15 Democrats, in- | cluding such party wheel-horses from the South as | Connally, of Texas; Tydings, of Maryland, and Smith, of South Carolina, not to mention Glass, of Virginia, whose record is more reactionary than nearly half of the Republicans. They represent the old Democratic party, the | party to which voters belonged for no better reason than that their fathers had been Democrats, the party that had neither direction nor force. The new Democratic party has left them. It has gone ahead with the necessities of the times. In every election a few more of the Old Guard will be weeded out, to be replaced by new blood. Among thuse new Democrats there have been some desertions from the Administration. But the voters can be depended on to punish those who have gone back on their party pledges. The New Deal is not and cannot be a one-man (‘Ifclrl | Such a broad program of economic and social advance requires the co-operation of a whole party It requires that those who believe in its principles support it in Congressional elections, local elections The issues, and who stands where on those issues, bhecome more clear with every month.
