MINERS GETTING UNDERGROUND
With a number of prospectors prepared to work
during the winter and boring into the hills of Nuka Bay
it is expected that by spring there will be showings in
the district offering developing capital an inviting field
for investment.
Like all new camps the district is just getting into
its stride thru the ability of prospectors to begin mak
ing holes which reveal the possbilties of many rich
veins which have been prospected on the surface.
It is estimated approximately 100 men are now in
the district; there is talk of a dock to be constructed
this winter at onn of the properties and next year will
see the Green beats making calls there for ore.
In addition to revealing continuity of ore and val
ues the workings will determine such matters as vein
placement and what it means with respect to possible
’arge ore bodies deeper down.
DESTROYING THE EDIFICE
The deulge of satirical publications directed to de
throning respect for womanhood and substituting there
for a standard born of the brothel is only matched by
the freedom with which ordinarily respectable household
magazines accord space for alleged ‘‘scientific” treatise
upon sex.
The burden of aU of these arguments and postulates
in defense of their assault upon the common subtleties
and decencies is that bold frankness serves better than
negation of cer ain knowledge until adult age reveals
them to have be°n fictional.
Under this assumption such men as Benjamin C.
Gruenberg, author of a pornagraphic volume entitled
“Biology and Human Lifee,” which is being freely quot
ed, would supplant the refinements of the moment by re
ducing the question of sex to a standard equivalent to
the barnyard.
i He would abolish sex delicacy and subtlety along
with the fiction of Santa Claus, and proceed to supplant
it with such frankness as one would expect to encounter!
in a group of obstetricians.
It is not difficult to identify the author’s genealog-1
ical tree by his name. Nor is it a problem to fix the |
source of his inspiration. It is the Soviet idea, mas-j
querading under the alias of science.
Among the weapons now being used to send Chris
tianity the way of the Czars is that of eradicating the i
refinements of the ages and substituting for delicacy,
which is synonymous with American culture and refine
ment. this bizarre reversion to a status equivalent to
that of the lower animal kingdom.
In the general communistic scheme, whose propo
nents now are taking advantage of stress of circum
stances m the nation to gain further inroads against
civilization, the first is to destroy the fundamentals of
organized society. Among these is religion and culture,
agencies which have drawn man from savagery to his
l resent state.
Rather than abolish modesty and substitute sex as
the dominant consideration of life, it were better that
the immature mind be presented a picture of Carthage,
Babylon, Sodom and Gemorrah as exemplifying the
fruits of what might properly be termed sex inebriacy.
If Jack Dempsey cannot break even on his fight
promotions there’s always the R. F. C. to appeal to.
Happy
New
Year
A terrible tragedy occurred in
Fairbanks yesterday morning
when Mrs. A. A. Budnick and her
five-year-old son were burned to
death in their home. Mrs. Bud
nick was the wife of the cashier
employed by the Alaska Railroad
in the freight sheds, the family
being known to many Seward peo
ple.
Mrs. Budnick had phoned her
husband that a fire had started
but thought she could extinguish
it alone with the aid of a hand
Pyrene. Mr. Budnick instructed
her over the phone how to use the
extinguisher, then hurried home
only to find it in flames; Mrs.'
Budnick and son were not on the
premises so Mr. Budnick attempt
ed to plunge into the flaming and
gas-filled building, but to no avail.
The bodies were later recovered
in a small basement which had ;
been flooded. Mr. Budnick is in*
the hospital under treatment for1
burns and inhalation of fumes.*
The temperature was 40 below
during the fire. The young family
had lived in Fairbanks for at least
10 years, local friends said.
