MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SYNCHRONIZATION OF THE PRESS
It is refreshing to observe, that such influential news
papers as the Ketchikan Chronicle synchronizes in the
thought process with the Gateway that what is com
plained of as a general lack of law observance is due to
consciousness on the part of the masses that certain tra
ditional rights and practices are being abridged by too
much federalization in the nation and the abandonment
of fundamental States' rights along with individual
rights. In arraigning this usurpation as so often ex
pressed throughout the nation and especially to Alaska,
which is the principal sufferer, the press is but a medium
of conveying the thopght of the people as revealed by
daily contact - * -
If the politiciann are so blind to the condition that
they refuse to see the trend of public opinion, it is only a
question of a brief period of time when they will be
awakened by an indignant electorate, which will get at
the root of the condition by removing its cause.
Synchronization by the press on these matters will
eventually exert its influence in ameliorating the condi
tion complained of.
After having loaded Charlie Chaplin's estate down
with two receivers who took up their residence in his
home and thus violating the principle that man's home
is his castle not to be entered without due process of law,
the courts finally vacate the order and issue another re
straining order against themselves further meddling in a
man's domestic affairs. *They are spoiling too. many
good sheep herders by admitting them to the bar.
