In view of the recent agreement with Japan or the Bristol Bay fishing question, and assuming that it will prove sufficiently effective for the time being, we wonder if it would not be more beneficial in the long run for the fishing inustry in Alaska if all the ideas now being advanced in Congress were incorpor- ated into one comprehensive | ing the entire problem there can be little objection now that Japan has admitted this country legal and moral right to the salmon to passing ck legislation, so why not make the legislation something which wil! be lasting and cover and thus perhaps avoid interr the future this time to salmon to protect other rritory’s everal ce of legislation cover- Surely the entire situation nal complications in | | who tells people what LIBERTY A Former President Herbert Hoover has returned to this country after an extended trip through Europe | one of the high spots of which was his interview with | Adelf Hitler, the strong man of Germany. It is re- ported to have been the first time that Hitler encour- aged criticism of his political setup. Hoover is said to have told the German leader that there was no chance of his extending the Nazi doctrine to America He not only teld Hitler he believed naziism is unfit for America, but boldly gave the opinion that it may not last long in Germany itself Hoover expressed o B ihe view that the totalitarian system of rigid control ovet' & mation’s life is not a practical nor enduring force in world affairs. He contended that the Amer: \n people never could be reconciled to tolerating vazi or Fascist order in their country. He said Ameri- an democratic ideals are irreconcilable with naziism. The American people, he added, could never be convinced t any political or social system is prac- ical unless it provides for intellectual freedom. Hitler retorted that such individual liberties are country, possessing vast natural resources such as the United States, can afford. But ould be impossible to permit such treedom in 'rn Germany and still have a workable political ixuries which a mo tructure, Hitler defended naziism by citing the economic progress of Germany since January 30, 1933. He etched a glowing picture of Germany's economic situ- ation. Like Mr. Hoo most of us will find it hard to er, hink of individuar liberty as a luxury, but it might be well to take a tip from Mr. Hitler and guard it arefully or we might see the day that it becomes a uxury. i “Isclation™ ¢ World-Telegram) of Pacific Ocean separate 0 miles of the Atlantic divide t the Six thousand m from Asia and us from Eurgpe.

But fust for the record and in case some of our readers nissed it we point out that national banks last ye: arned t return on capital since 1920. Net profits available for dividends last year, ac- crding to the current issue of the Federal Reserve 3ulletin, were 893 percent of invested capital—as :ompared with 821 percent in 1929. It is true that his high rate is in large part due to the fact that *harge-offs for bad loans and investments were lower last year than at any time since 1930, and that unusu- ally large recoveries were registered on loans and investments previously though bad. But these two factors also are not unconnected with the “ruinous” New Deal. 1b: e hig itute washing machines for It is proposed to serub women in the Massachusetts State House.
