ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED 'm BE LARGER ZHAN THAT OF ANY OTH NEED OF CONTINUED TIVE EFFORT ALASKA’S COOPERA brou bout Territory On marked progress toward deve hich has lopment of the of the major factc during the last six years has been the excellent spirit of cooperation between the officials in Washington, Delegate Dimond and our Territc 1 officials. The and Rep- the needs Delegate with the aid of western Senators resentatives has been able to drive home of Alaska as no representative heretofore has been able to do; and at the same time he has had a sym- pathetic audience from the White House, from Con- gress and from department heads. That spirit of cooperation will bring about other important advances which are now in the making. For example there is the defense program for the north, which means Army and Navy bases in the Territory; there is need for further development of commercial aviation with more and improved air fields and communication systems; there is the road program to open up some of our now isolated but rich mineral areas; there is the need for actual develop- ment of the tourist and recreation business which means the cooperation of all agencies and individuals; there is the International Highway. These are but a few of the major undertakings now in the process of realization in which Delegate Dimond is a powerful and moving force. To continue that program, the Delegate needs solid support in the Territory. The people of Alaska to assure its realization m‘('(! to place in public office men of broad vision; men who are in accord with the development program of Alaska, who know its prob- lems and are willing to strive toward their solution A Territorial Legiciature which would be politi- cally antagonistic to the Delegate and the national adi istr could well retard the advances which have becn made and the progress in the future. Alaska in its drive toward development and ultimate statehood has no years to waste in political bickering Alaska moving on a united front is looking further than mere political victory. It is looking to the cul- mination of the program of development now under- way. Thus, it becomes vitally important that Alaskans who are in accord with the Delegate's efforts and the continued for Alaska same i broad national policies of the administration are placed in office in the Territory to support the program. Next Tuesday when Alaska voters go to the polls to select public officials again, they will find names of such men on the ballot. Heading the ticket, of course, will be the Dele- gate himself, whose record alone should win him the greatest vote of confidence from the voters of Alaska the he has ever received. There will be the name of Oscar G. Olson, who is asking return to the Treasurer's office and who is in complete accord with the Alaska THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, SEPT. 9, 1938. | Roden for return to the Senate where he has servedl 50 ably; J. P. Anderson, James V. Davis, A. P. Walker | and John McCormick for House seats in this Division. All are men of known capabilities. All are sound Alaskans. All, working in cooperation with the Dele- gate and the national administration, can bring about that progress for which the people of Alaska are striving. A Genuine Stalemate (Cincinnati Enquirer) More plainly than at any time since the deadlock on the edge of Madrid in late 1936, the Spanish war has turned into an absolute stalemate. Since the insurgent drive to the sea coast last winter, there has been no really significant shift in the fighting fronts anywhere in Spain. General Franco’s advance against Catalonia was blocked at the Ebro River, and the loyalist attack in that region likewise was stopped. Southwarg, re-| peated attempts by the insurgent armies to advance on Valencia have been frustrated. Nor have the loya s been able to retake much ground in the Terue] District Such gains as have been made have come through 1t and then an offensive in an unexpected quar- This was the way the government forces made along the Ebro River and near Viver In similar fashion, the insurgents a fe ter. some advances to the southward. advanced a little near Almaden, far to the south- west, but soon found their offensive blocked, and then turned a day or two ago to the Tagus River Valley, southwest of Madrid The element of surprise always is important in But when every offensive takes place on a front, and each bogs down soon afterward, t is plain that the armies are very evenly matched. The vastly better offensive weapons of the insurgents erve well in open country. But these tanks and planes are matched by the patient cot of the ¢ mment’s infantrymen, with their greater skill in defensive tactics, In such conditions, there is every reason to believe the Spanish war will go on for many months, into another winter of suffering for the Spanish people. Despite the constant improvement of mobile weapons, the odds in war still favor the defense, Consequently, every war tends to become a long war. Every war, in other words, tends to impose the maximum of suffering on the innocent civilian population which must make the sacrifices to maintain armies in the field. t Minton (Philadelphia Record) Every time Senator Minton breaks into the news it is reported that he is being considered for Justice Cardozo's place on the U. S. Supreme Court There doesn’t seem to be any justification for this rumor, beyond the hope in certain anti-New Deal quarters that the President would make such an injudicious appointment. Seretor Minton has been tagged with his pet project, a law to punish any newspaper that “know- ingly publishes an untruth.” As has been pointed out many times, newspapers are already held account- able both under the criminal and the civil law for damaging untruths. A new law would only mean | governmental censorship, which the present Federal Administration has repeatedly indicated that it doesn't want and wouldn't touch. ator Minton’s unfortunate but purely personal ative hobby has been used repeatedly to embar- rass the New Deal. Under the eircumstances, we can't think of any son whatever why he should be appointed to the Supreme Court. Gruunds for l)nnr(e‘.’ (New York World-Telegram) We are vaguely troubled by the news trom Prague, in Czechoslovakia, where the wife of a 69-year-old pensioned schoolmaster has sought a divorce begause her husband insisted on preparing a telephone book with the names spelled backward. s idea was that such a directory would bc help- | ful to people who might forget the first syllable of a name but not the last. It is a novel notion, but these are times when many proposals, certainly no less contrary to established custom, are being advocated and even put into effect by individuals and govern- ments. If a man can be divorced for believing that a large part of humanity is thinking in reverse, and wanting to do something about it, we fear the courts may be due for a terrific rush of business, A news note 18,000 to 20,000 eng says that neers.” “Germany is shy some Well, it's newsworthy that program.
