THIRST FOR WORLD POWER
A pamphlet, published by the World Peace Movement, 108 Park
Row, New York, reveals the memorial of Premier Tanaka of Japan, pre
sented to the Emperor of Japan in 1915, which discloses a startling
dream of world conquest on the part of the militarist party of the Nip
ponese. It discloses that the trouble in China is the outcome of a well
prepared program calculated to defeat the Nine-Power Treaty and the
Lansiing-Ishii agreement, and has for its objective first acquiring of
Manchuria and Mongolia and later the conquest of China, after which
it was proposed to launch a movement for world conquest.
Subsequent acts of Japan indicate the authenticity of the Tanaka
memorial.
Thus the question confronting the pacifist is: Whether steps should
bq taken now to save the world from a war more horrible in its aspect
than the World War, if nothing else, because it is waged by the last
remnants of a barbaric monacharial idea, which reckons not with civ
ilized ideas of war?
The time arrives when, after a man refuses to be amenable to rea
son and justice, sets at naught all laws and usages and considers him
self above these things, there is but one weapon he respects a*nd that
is repayment in kind. That time apparently has arisen.
It requires no love for the panoply of war and its hollow glories
to decide upon what is to be done in the present instance. America is
facing the lesser of too evils—arming to a point where she will be sup
erior to any nation outside of Europe and equal to any combination
that may be formed against her or being caught unprepared. If we are
to reach into the treasury to secure funds with which to relieve distress
let us expend it for that which will protect us against the first thrust of
militarists.
Once this group is held in check it will enable the Japanese people
to rid themselves of the fungus cluttering up their real progress aind
enable them to live at peace with the world.
VALDEZ MINER HAS BELLYACHE
After setting up the premise that Seward is not, like Anchorage,
permitted to route freight via joint steamship and rail traffic, and re
ceive it five miles out of town, the Valdez Miner gets this off its chest:
Seward merchants must pay the same freight rates from
Seattle that the merchants of neighboring coast cities pay, which is
manifestly unfair (subtle sarcasm for an Arcadian) and they are con
siderably peeved."
In other words, the (newspaper with its future behind it is tickled
pink at what it believes to be a handicap to Seward. Which must have
pleased its subscribers—both of them.

FATAL HAD UNUSUAL
MILADY IS THINNING
DOC RAIS INTERIOR
McKINLEY PARK, Mar. 21. (Spe
cial to The Gateway)—Some un
usual malady has affected the
dog population of the Interior the
past winter.
The dogs seem to become para
lyzed in their hind parts and hind
legs. Some cases the attack comes
on gradual; in others during one
night they are hardly able to stand
on their hind legs. Many appear
to linger on for months, others fall
dead.
Travelers from the Yukon River
report over 200 dogs there are af
flicted.
So many pooches have been at- I
tacked that any sort of pooch with |
hair on and more than three legs !
has a price on his head.
No remedy for the trouble is now
known, nor has any one offered a
guess as to what the trouble may
be.
It is said the disease is similar
to that which raged in Nome some
25 years ago, and that several hun
dred dogs either died or were
killed because of it. No name or
remedy was known for it there
either.
INSPECT AVIATION FIELD
A group of local business men,
together with Engineer Fred Spach,
of the Alaska Road Commission,
have inspected that section of land
directly north of the Seward avia
tion field. It is hoped permission
can be obtained to fell the trees.
A. D. Balderston, president of
the Seward Country Club, is al
ready laying plans for the coming
golf season which he will present
at a meeting of members to be held
shortly.
Tonight is the last night for the
showing of the feature, “Young
