And it is a fortunate thing for the country that he is. But one characteristic which sets him apart from other | politicians and endears him to so many people is the | candor he frequently shows in handling practical poli- | tical matters. ‘The President did not like the sugar bill which | |Congress passed Another politician on the same hot spot probably would have signed the bill and+said {nothing, or, if he had said anything, would merely have remarked it was probably as good a measure as could be obtained under the circumstances. But Mr. Roosevelt issued a public statement, in which he put in writing the terms of a bald political | deal which he had exacted as the price of his signature. | “I am approving the bill,” he said, “with what amounts to a gentlemen’s agreement that the unholy alliance between the cane and beet growers on the one hand and the seaboard refining monopoly on the | other, has been terminated by the growers, | it is appropriate to pay a passing That means that hereafter the refiners’ lobby | fourth President of the should expect no help from the domestic growers. known as the “father That is at least a definite step in the right direction.” It will be interesting to see whether, when 1940 rolls around and the quotas in the new sugar law | expire, Mr. Roosevelt can enforce that “gentlemen’s | agreement” breaking up the “unholy alliance” between the farmers’ lobby and the refiners’ lobby. The meas- ure which these two lobbies forced through Congress, | as the President says, discriminates Rico, Hawaii and the Virgin Islands by denying them | the right to expand their refining industries.

His scheme, as expressed in a letter to Washington, was that individual sover- of States irreconcilable with aggregate but that the “consolidation of the whole eignty was sovereignty into one simple republic would be as inexpedient as it is unattainable.” He considered as a practical middle ground changing the basis of representation in Con- gress from States to population; giving the national government “positive and complete authority in all cases which require uniformity;” giving it a negative on all State laws, a power which might best be vested in the Senate, a comparatively permanent body; electing the lower house, and the more numerous, for a short term; providing for a national executive, for extending the national supremacy over the judiciary | and the militia, for a council to revise all laws, and %Y for an express statement of the right of coerclon; dllfl; finally, obtaining the ratification of a new constitu- tional instrument from the people, and not merely b e Tt | the questions the passengers didn’t ask.—New York Madison took a leading part in the debates 'Sun | the convention and many minute and wise prm’imons: N R Pl S A | are due to his efforts.

Exhaustion of the world’s oil sup- ply will see to that, thinks General Edmund Allexin. of the Austrian general staff. He quotes experts* 1,000,000 soldiers in a future war would need about 300,600 tons of iron_&nd steel, about 4,000,000 tons of ceal, and 200,000 tons of oil. But he thinks that motorization of armies would boost those figures considerably. The world’s yearly production of minerals he puts at two billion tons. The most important is oil, of which he says America produces 80 . per cent, and which may be nearly ex- hausted in about 50 to 70. years, Colonel Allexin minimizes the im- portance of efforts to produce syn- thetic oil or gasoline because of the expense and the necessity of having great plants, vulnerable in war time. estimates that —~—— IN FROM WINDHAM Mrs. Stanton Price is in Juneau cloth from Windham and is registered at the Juneau, [ DA FORD AGENCY (Author ized Dealers) GREASES GAS — OILS JUNEAU MOTORS Foot of Main Street Cigars Cigarettes Candy Cards THE NEW ARCTIC Pabst Famous Draught Beer On Tap "JIMMY" CARLSON ’ @ ay’n Takit PHONES 92 or 3 Free Delivery Fresh Meats, Groceries, Laquors, Wines and Beer We Sell for LESS Because We sell for CASH Spacial Waenly Ka ALASKANS LIKE THE | 4 George Brothers e ———— 230 South Franklin ' “The Rexall Store” i your Reliable pharmacists compound preserip- tions.
