The Territorial Chamber of Commerce is at pres- ent attempting to find some means of relief for numerous Southeastern Alaska small boat owners who have had their boats taken, or “chartered” by the Government and defense contractors working for the Government and have received no compensation for this. Examples brought before the Chamber in its investigation have been shocking. The way in which these matters have been handled has not been right. Certainly, no boat owner in Alaska, no matter how hard he finds it to make a living, is going to do anything to keep his country from winning the war. But these men have been mislead to a point that is shameful Perhaps there is no money with which to pay these boat owners for the use of their craft, although | we strongly doubt this. Congress has been very gen- erous in making appropriations, and the way in which money is being wasted in Alaska does not lead us to believe that such is the case. But e if there was no money for such services, the way in which these boat owners were handled was not, is not the American way of doing things. Much indignation has arisen in Alaska over the treatment doled out by the Government and war contractors in this case. Much prestige has been lost by both. Thers been made concerning the pri for chartering certain boats. comes for payment, the owner to another, and no money which was to be paid But when the time is referred from one is forthcoming. Many e slana, now running for Governor | times the owner must have expensive repairs made on his boat. Some of these owners have no money to pay for the repairs which have been made in good faith, the owners believing the money to be forth- coming. Owing large bills, the owners find themselves their boats. i mislead, Teelings, would not have been so bitter. deal with — directly -~ why they have been mislead be hard to get in Southeastern Alaska. S. Land, as well as to Alaska Delegate Anthony J Dimond and Gov. Ernest Gruening Planning the Peace (Cincinnati Enquirer) presidential campaign phasize now that this cannot be achieved merely by a trick of platform writing. Leaders high in the council party—and for the moment we refer to others than Wendell Willkie—should begin demonstrating: now that they are thinking constructively in terms of international effort to preserve the peace once we have fought and won it. In recent months, there has been a discernible tendency to beg the question of international collaboration. Several Republican spokes- men have asserted that isolationism is a dead issue, but hastened to qualify their asertion with a ringing denunciation of so-called internationalism. If this indicates nothing else, it shows an effort to straddle, to substitute an attactive formula of words for a con- crete peace suggestion. ‘That progréss is being made, however, is shown by the peace pronouncements this week by Clarence | Buddington Kelland, Republican National Committee- man from Arizona, and Senator Taft. Both have come a long way indeed in their thinking on international affairs in the last two years, or at least a long way judged by their words at face value. Mr. Kelland, who as we recall was a vociferous isolationist, still talks of maintaining an American military and naval colossus. To quote him: “From this day forth our country must not merely be able to prepare for war, but must stand panoplied, equipped to the last button, and ready for war.” ‘We submit that is a grim and dreary formula indeed for maintaining peace, and if it were all that Mr. Kelland had to suggest we would necessarily | conclude that he was still back in 1940. If the only | in arms and on a war footing, we might as well resign ourselves now to a paralysis of all progress. Mr. Kel- land, however, is willing to take prior steps for the maintenance of peace. It does not matter overmuch, | perhaps, that he proposes several things which are self-conflicting and impractical, if his desire for inter- national action to maintain peace is sincere. Senator Taft likewise has committed himself to “a | renewed attempt to prevent the occurrence of any war is more specific in saying what he does not favor in the way of world organization than he is in indicating what he advecates. At least, we are getting a discussion now. And useful formulae may grow out of it.

Accord- ing to astrology the Aquarian age is dawning and that means a time of human development — intellec- tual and spiritual. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Astrolog- ers who foresee economic conditions | [at the close of the World War urge | wage-earners to practice thrift. In- vestment in war bonds should ab- sorb a large part of earnings, they | say, and what remains after eurrent | expenses should be used to provide | |permanent homes, preferably in small towns or on farms.

A. Campbell, !capltaust of Seattle, and associates, who filed articles of ineorporation :ol' the Alaska and Northwest Dirigible Company in the office of the Sccretary of Alaska. The company was incorporated for cne. million dollars. The incorporators were O. A. Campbell of Scattle, and Henry Roden and H. L. Faulkner of Juneau. The Juneau Playgrounds looked like a White City. Three additional tents were being pitched and two of the tents were being connected with the main tent, for the Southeast Alaska Fair. . A descriptive article of Juneau and the locality with particular regard to the tourist visitor and hotel accommodations here, had been written by Fred A. Sorri, Manager of the Gastineau Hotel. The article was to appear in an issue of the Hotel Operation Magazine, the technical | . ection of the National Hotel Review. ! With farm products and flowers, exhibits for the Southeast Alaska ’Fuir, aboard from Haines and Skagway, and with a number of residents from those towns who came here to attend the fair, the mail and passenger boat Estebeth arrived in port this day. Gov. Scott C. Bone was to formally open the second annual South- t Alaska Fair with an address. An old time parade was being planned | to precede the opening, marching from the downtown business section, | out Willoughby Avenue and to the fair grounds. | Weather report: High, 46; low, 45.
