QUASI-LOYALTY
In treating the question of necessity for protection of Alaska as
suggested by Senator Hamilton Lewis, the Alaska Weekly, which would
have us believe is the final authority of Alaska and Alaskan opinion,
refers to Senator Lewis’ suggestion as “cawying an element of jingoism.”
To those who do not understand that Alaska opinion and authority
reposes in the resident Alaskan and his ten newspapers, of which six
are dailies, and published in Alaska, not in Seattle, the Alaska Weekly’s
semi-satire might be taken seriously, thus leaving the impression that
there was little merit in pointing the federal government to so serious
a matter as supplying military protection to a completely disarmed
fmp.iC. As an archaic purveyor of the Alaska that was and negating
the prospect for the retrospect, the Alaska Weekly fills a valuable field.
Zt cannot be expected that it would shed its last year’s garments for
something in tune with the times.
It is well for the man at a distance to set himself in judgement on
the needs and ambitions of Alaska. But it would be in better taste if
his judicial slant was focussed from a point in close intimate contact
with his subject matter than from a purely detached one.
There is such a thing as saving one from his friends. In this in
stance unless outside publications can synchronize with purely Alaskan
sentiment it is best that they leave these matters to those best able to
convey a correct picture.
It is claimed Dictator Staline declined the offer of Alaska, remaxk
jng that he was having enough trouble with 147,000,000 boneheads
without adding 50,000 more.
Secretary Wilbur counsels economy in Alaska. Yes, limit the
brown bear to one prospector and his prehensile compeer, “blackie,” to
cleaning out one cache annually.
The fates seem to conspire. Just when we were advertising the
Valley of Ten Thousands Smokes as a thriller, a Democratic convention
:s looming.
Now we are beginning to understand the pacifist’s viewpoint. Even
the most avaricious nation would refuse to take us along with pro
hibition.
Apparently Washington lived two hundred years too soon.

SPRING WILL ill II
FULL MTH EARLIER
Local oldtimers predict spring
will come this year a full month
earlier, probably May, because of
the light fall of snow and present
warming temperatures.
Violent winds piled up the local
huge piles of snow, not a heavy
snowfall, it is pointed out, and else
where in this district the snowfall
has been below normal. Only in
Interior regions was the depth of
snow unusual.
Other indications are evident in i
the buds on trees and blossoming !
of indoor plants, and lastly, golfers
appearing garbed in knickers.
