This two percent saving will mean amount annually to $2.680—a very nice sum to be used for further civic improvement or retirement of | outstanding bond issues | The Juneau six percent obligations consist $90,000 | of school bonds and $44,000 of sewer bonds. When they were issued six percent was the going rate. Times have changed @ such bonds at four percent are now in demand by investors. | For achieving this of reducing interest charges, Delegate Antho! J.

What's more, you don't need a vacation that the boss gives you but one that you take yourself. Everyone ought to have a vacation every day, and with planning and wit he can put into short intervals all the essentials of a protracted holiday. So reasons Dr. Willlam Moul- ton Marston, distinguished psychologist, in the cur- rent Rotarian Magazine. Too many of us dwell in the grip of routine and preoccupation, Dr. Marston admonishes, but with a bit of scheming we can change the scene, the pace, and the habit of our daily lives without breaking appointments, being late, or loafing. Mere cessation of work and aimless relaxation aren't enough, the author says, because vacations must include ,wcimz‘ new faces, getting new points of view, doing dif- ferent and exciting things—rekindling that some- | thing which puts sparkle back in eyes, spring back‘ into sagging arches. The lunch hour provides v for a walk new change of ideas with truck dents in “beaneries” and c utes to catch the drama of ti n opportunities undings, and ex- and college stu- or a few min- street with a camera, glimpses of surr ers feterias holds Dr. Marston. Even e visits of persons who interrupt your busiest working hours can be vaca-‘ tions if an interesting exc e of views replace: a bored resistance to the other few minutes at a hobby for many folks aside the accumulated debris of other people’s de- mands which clutter up their minds” in the tyranny of fixed schedules, he declares. “Floundering along in a deep rut with your vision dimmed by other people’s dust will never get you anywhere,” the author asserts. “What I am talking about is the independence to take time off | whenever you cease to function prope: the cour- age to renew your spirit and not be browbcaten by routine. A daily vacation is your best success in- surance because it guarantees the preservation ‘of your own inner drive. Sounds good to us. will “sweep | | Communist loyalty to Communis fellow's ideas. A ! correspondent, !when they THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, NOTHER TER}!ITORY HEARD FROM Emphasizing its “sparkling blue oceans all un- r'|\ urbed by the war,” Puerto Rico is making an 2 and determined bid for the 1940 American tourist. Colorful literature received even here in Ala capitalizes upon Puerto Rico’s status as a U. S. Territory, an important requisite for a success- ful tourist mecca in a war year. “The people of Puerto Rico,” states a letter re- seived by The Empire from the Institute of Tour- sm at San Juan, “are justly aware of the debt hey owe the American tourist and proud of the \ppreciation the tourist shows for our land. We ex- end a hand of welcome to our fellow-citizens from mainland.” Alaska could well take a leaf from Puerto Rico’s book. There is altogether too little awareness here of the of the tourist business and too few 1ands in welcome to our fellow-citizens from Outside. he value extenc zsche in Practice Nie (Cincinnati Enquirer) Were Nietzsche alive he would rejoice to see that s ideas were no longer shadowy abstractions, but had become realities. He wrote: “The splendid blond beast on the prowl looking for blood and carnage.” That is pre- what the splendid blond beast did in Czecho- lm,;km and in Poland. He liked calling the Ger- mans blond beasts, for he said they were a “race of conquerors and masters.” Evidently with pro- phetic eye he saw the coming of Hitler. At least this passage would seem to indicate it. “He who knows how to command, he whom nature has made a master, he who is mighty in his deed and motions —what does he care about treaties?” He reviled respect for contracts and pledges as of weaklings.” “To be hard, to be ruthless, and thus to rule” was his doctrine. The Nazis have put Nietzsche into practice. He, glorified the lust for power and preached that bru- tality and cruelty were the proper weapons for the: strong If you, gentle reader, do not care to read Niet- zsche, you easily can learn his philosophy, All that is necessary is to know it is the exact opposite of what was taught by the greatest Teacher the world has ever known our neigbors as ourself and that we should do unto others as we would have them do unto us. We cannot, however, believe that the whole German nation has been led astray. There must be among them the saving grace of a great many who to Jesus Christ rather than to Nietzsche, that l]m'\(l(‘ of blood and iron. lo dreadful Six to ()nc for Joe! (Philadelphia Record) Every time somebody calls the American Student Union “Communistic,” officials of the A.S.U. resent the charge with indignation Communist? Perish the thought. Yet last week the American Student Union adopted resolutions denouncing Britain, France and Germany for engaging in an “imperialist war’-—- and then rejected, by the huge vote of 322 to 49, an amendment denouncing Russia for its invasion of Finland, Welll what it is. Centainly If that isn't the giveaway, we don’t know the vote in defense of the Soviet Union proves that the Communists dominate the organization of the American Student Union even if they do not constitute a majority of its member- ship. In fairness, it should be remembered that Jo- seph Lash, executive director of the AS.U., and Molly Yard, national chairman, both urged passage of the amendment condemning Russia. But they were overruled. The Reds—or fellow-travelers— they're alike to us—were in the saddle. What effect this vote will have on the rank and file of the A.S.U. we don't know. But if it doesn't lead to a great drive to throw the Reds out of con- trol, then the AS.U. must resign itself to formal recognition as a Communist front organization. A 322 to 49 vote for Russia can’t be construed any other way. “Like One Man” (Cleveland Plain Dealer) A question puzzles the mind as one reads of the recent election in parts of Russia. Why do they ‘hold elections there? Though the returns may not be yet complete, it appears that Stalin was the winner. Everybody whooped it up for the big Communist. Pro-Stalin enthusiasm was at high pitch. In the north war- hip crews voted en masse the right way. The “in- incible Stalinist bloc,” to use the words of one Red was invincible. indeed, are some of the references to n. The crew of an ice breaker ‘“could not sleep,” a solemn narrator declares, “owing to their impatience for the moment would be first allowed to vote.” He deesn’t say for whom the sleepless impatients cast their ballot. You guess! “Like one man,” borrowing another Moscow ex- pression, dutiful. Russians march to the polls to cast plunkers for the big chief. P. S.: The Finns had no vote. Touching, Comrade Stalin, replying to Fuehrer Hitler's birthday greetings, observes that their friendship is| cemented by blood.” But mot by theirs.
