THE NARCOTICS BILL The Uniform Narcotics Drug Act, introduced in the Senate Tuesday by Senator N. R. Walker of Ketchikan, is worthy of favorable comment in the light of the recent crash of the Harold Gillam plane. The bill would, among other things, permit the earrying of narcotic drugs on ships and airplanes operating in the Territory for use in cases of emergency. Survivors of the Gillam crash commented on the pain and torture suffered by Miss Susan Batzer, who died after a two-day ordeal of suffering. If the Alaska narcotics law now in efféct would have allowed pilots to carry narcotic drugs for such emer- gencles as this, Miss Batzer would have been allowed a few painless hours while waiting for aid to come. Alaska's present narcotics law, drafted in 1923 and not altered since, is obsolete, unsatisfactory for this day and age —years behind measures of this nature which have been adopted by the rest of the nation. . It is revealed that H. J. Anslinger, Commissioner of Narcotics in Washington, D. C., widely known for his excellent work in this field, has read the pro- the community by making possible the rapid and vigorous prosecution of the vicious illicit dope peddler. Many features of this proposed bill are beyond |the power of the Federal government to enact. It should be the duty of the States and Territories— the duty of Alaska—to bring about the immediate adoption of this law and fill thé gap between Fed- jeral and Territorial enforcement. With all this in mind, it doesn't seem beyond reason to urge the speedy passage of the bill—with- ‘out a dissenting vote—as soon as possible. Why Russia Fights (New York Times) One of the most illuminating reports coming out of Russia was an article published recently by |Tlya Ehrenburg, Russia’s “most powerful” war cor- respondent connected with the Army paper Red Star. 1In this article he detailed in poignant instances what Russian men and women fight for, and why. And what do the fight for, and why? Do they fight for the Communist International, or the world- | wide proletarian revolution, or any of the other Communist shibboleths? No, says Ilya Ehrenburg. | They fight for their country, for their soil, for their ! national culture; above all, they fight for their loved whom the Nazis have killed.

The Mooseheart Endowment Fund Ball for the benefit of the home for older Moose was to be given pn February 15 with excellent music, refreshments and other forms of entertainment. The Alaska Road Commission item in the Army supply measure, which called for $1,000,000 for the construction of roads and trails in Alaska, was passed by the Senate a few days earlier, according to tele- graphic advice received from Col. James G. Steese, who had been fighting for the bill in Washington, D. C. Past Exalted Rulers’ Night at the Elks' lodge was a gala affair with all chairs occupied by Past Exalted Rulers. Those occupying the various chairs, all Past Exalted Rulers, were Joe Snow, Claude Ericson, B. A. Roselle, H. E. Biggs, R. E. Robertson, J. L. Gray, George F. Forrest, and M. E. Russell. The Rev.
