MILTON., Kraft Building Corner Second and Franklin Reasons AGAINST | POLITICAL CONTROL OF LIQUOR | (1) The Referendum upon which you are asked to vote blindly does not tell you which of 28 monopoly systems Alaska will get—if the Referendum passes. (2) Keep Government out of Private Business. If the Territory takes over the beverage industry will yours be next? There is nothing to stop it — unless you start fighting now. Don’t bring back the bootlegger. When all cocktail bars and package stores are eliminated (except one Territorial store) drinking will go back to the speak- easy with all its accompanying vices. At present the beverage industry of Alaska expends $850,000 in wages, rents, light, drayage, etc., all of which contributes greatly to the prosperity of the Ter- ritory. Alaskans still prefer to earn their own living rather than be on a patronage payroll and give lip service to a political boss. Passage of the Referendum will establish a political v machine that will take years to dlslodge. Anyone can see that the Territorial appointee in each town and village will be “right” with the pohticmns who want the Referendum to pass. g Leading Superior Court Judges and Prosecuting Attor- neys in monopoly states (denounce the monopolistic hquor system as encouraging racketeering, graft and general disregard for law and order reminiscent of Prohibition days. Passage of the Referendum will cause every city in Alaska to lose one-fifth.to one-half of their present city income. The combination of Territorial license refunds to each city and local taxes on cocktail bars and package stores make up a substantial part of the revenues of every municipality. If this tax revenue is lost, YOUR taxes must be increased to make up the d\(ference.

Houston, 74, life insurance company executive, and Secretary of Agri- culture in President Woodrow Wil-/ son’s cabinet, is dead here, Houston lived a varied life. He began modestly as a graduate stu- dent instructor of ancient lan- guages. He found time to be an author and at 36 became a college president. Eight years were devoted to serving in the cabinet of Wood- row Wilson, Next he became one of the chief executives of the tele- phone industry and, finally, presi- dent of a life insurance company. Houston was born at Monroe, Un- ion County, North Carolina, on February 17, 1866, the son of Wil- liam H. and Cornelia Anne (Stev- ens) Houston, He was a descendant of John Houston, who came to America from Scotland in the 18th century and settled in Augusta County, Va., where he founded the old Providence Church, While known to the people of the south as one of their foremost edu- cators and economists, Houston was known to the public at large as holder of two portiolios in the! double-term Wilson administration. He was Wilson's confidential ad- viser on tariff and currency prob- lems during the first campaign in 1912. After his election, Wilson chose Houston for his cabinet, as- signing him to the secretaryship of the Department of Agriculture. While in that office, which he| held seven years, Houston helped organize the Federal Reserve bank system. Later, Congress eliminated the Secretary of Agriculture as a member of that body, and Houston then becam: one of the creators of the Federal Farm Loan Board. He was married December 11, 1895, to Helen Beall, daughter of Captain Duval Beall, of Austin, Texas, Five children were born. IT'S A C'RL A girl baby, weighinz 7 pounds and 11 ounces, was born at 8:30 o'- clock this morning to Mr. and Mrs. Stroller H. White, in Fullerton, Cal- ifornia, according to a radiogram received by Mrs. E. J. White. The California Whites now have two children, the other a boy, three years of age.
