NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES Fourth Avenue Bide., Seatile, Wash. Alaska Newspapers, 1411 A MAN’S IDEA CHANGE Not of one of the fmportant States of the United States, in an inaugural address, spoke these words: “There is a'present dangerous tendency to forget a fundamental of American democracy—the tendency to encourage consolidation of power at the top of a governmental structure alien to our system and more closely akin to dictatorship or the central com- mittee of the Communist regime. We have met dif- ficulties before this and have solved them in accord- ance with the basic theoris of representative democracy. Let us not at this time pursue the easy romdl © of “centralization of authority, lest some day too long ago, a Governor — we discover too late that our liberties have dis- appeared.” Recognize the man? Then here's some more from a later radio address “It was clear to the framers of our Constitution . . that any administration attempting to make all Jaws for the whole Nation would inevitably re- sult at some future time in a dissolution of the Union, itself. The doctrine ‘of regulation and legisla- tion by master minds has been too glaringly apparent’ in Washington during the last 10 years. To bring about government by oligarchy masquerading as de- mocracy, it is fundamentally essential that practically all authority and control be centralized in our National Government.” Author of the foregoing remarks was then Gov- ernor of New York—Franklin D.’ Roosevelt. (Cincinnati Enquirer) We note with considerable alarm that certain elements are encouraging Americans to enter the business of growing silkworms and selling the cocoons to the manufacturers for processing. One New York department store is willing to set cash customers up in business, supplying mamma and papa worms, a to the trade. It has been pointed out that one grower raised enough silk to make his town flag, while a young lady from Hazelton, Pa., grew silk sufficient to fabricate six pairs of genuine prewar stockings. We don't look for any stampede on the part of But within that second example the one concerning | the stockings—Ilurk possibilities which well may end in the wreeking of a large part of our war industries and the contentment of the few guys who still come home at the day's end to find supper ready. It wouldn’t surprise us in the least if 96 per cent of the ladies of the United States right now are on tife way to growing silk. We're certain that this will be the case if they know they can get a few pairs of | slinky-looking socks from the fruits of their labors. | Nothing right now is so desired by the woof and warp | of American womanhood as silk to which to fasten |'the working end of their garters. ‘We can see the plan in operation, We can see | the ladies laying off the lathe to take care of their [of their ordeals.

Under the treaty for the protection of halibut fisheries, which pro- vided for an annual closed season for the industry, provision was made for the appointment of an International Fisheries Commission com- posed of four members, two each from the United States and Canada. It was to be the duty of these members to make a close study of Pacific halibut and make recommendations for the regulation of the industry. Copies of the treaty had been received by the Juneau Chamber of Commerce. This night was the last night of the Moose Carnival and Frolic and it had.promise of being a special one for both young and old.
