STARVATION APPROPRIATION RATION
An average of only a half cent an acre is being
spent annually in America to provide hunting and fish-1
ing—in spite of the facts that hunters and anglers
have increased 400 per cent in the past decade; they are;
spending $650,000,000, a year to take game and fish.;
Their sports bring more money into many states than!
does any other single industry.
The best financed state is spending only five cents
an acre yearly, it is declared, while the poorest financed
state is devoting to fish and game work only one-sev
entieth of a cent per acre.
The American Game Association, in a recent report,
said that all the annual expenditures in this field, both
state- and federal, amounts to just $12,000,000. It would
seem this is rather a starvation ration on which the
wild life of this country, especially as to game birds,
fish and waterfowl, has failed to hold its own against
industries operated along sounder business lines.
This short-sighted policy is undoubtedly one of the
main reasons why the coyotes and wolves are increasing!
annually by leaps and bounds—lack of sufficient Terri- j
torial and Federal appropriation to combat the menace;
the only menace to Alaska’s wild game life.
Millions more should be spent throughout the nat
ion in order to perpetuate wild life; fishing and hunt
ing give healthful recreation to a large percentage of
the people and directly or indirectly benefit every per
son in the country.
A protest against the speed and pressure of mod-1
ern life was stated recently in words that were new and
few by a public speaker wTho said that man had become 1
the slave of his own inventions.
Alaskan aviators should be presented with charts
of the Seward Golf Club course, laid out on the fringes
of the local field. The greens have been measured to a
gnat's eye-lash which information should be handy for
pilots wishing to sit down on the green sward. But
they should first shout “four!”
We read that a false alarm costs the New York
fire department $300. But think of the cost of false
alarms sent to our political halls.
A strange sight was witnessed in the Liberty Thea
tre last evening, the first night of the new rulings gov
erning children. Men, whom we know are bachelors and
families with sudden increases overnight, entered the
theatre with kiddoes of all ages. On certain nights chil
dren, unless accompanied by grown-ups, may not enter.
A good ruling and one which will be appreciated by the
theatre-going public in general.
Addison said “Nothing is capable of being well set
to music that is not nonsense.” Anyway, modern song
writers seem to agree.
Its hard to convince a jobless man that his hunger
is merely psychological.

Its desirable to be able to speak several languages,
but it is rather more important to be able to think in
one.
Today, the fisheries alone of Alaska, return an an
nual amount of more than $40,000,000.

j JUVENILE ORGANIZATIONS
ROME, June 4. (/P) —Truce was j
I believed near in the controversy |
j between the Holy See and the Ital
i ion State and secret dipomatic ne
i gotiations got under way.
It was learned that the settle
ment of differences depends, how
| ever, on whether the Fascist gov
ernment will accede to the demands
of the Pope in two protests for re
parations and apologies.
The first was made by the Pontiff
in the capacity of the Sovereign of j
the Vatican State, who protested I
against violations of the Italian !
Vaican Conciliation treaty. Points j
specifically mentioned were the vio- j j
lation of articles 15 by invasion of 1
the Palace of Papal Chancery by an j
excited mob which thus technically |
invaded Vatican territory; another;
specific violation was that of article
43 of the Concordt, by the violent;
campaign of the Fascist press!
against the Catholic religion and
which . the Italian government
bound itself to recognize.
The second protest was made by
the Fope in his capacity as Bishop j
of Rome and dealth with all the ;
other insults and violence to which i
property and members of Catholic !
Institutions were subjected.
Negotiations for a solution of the ;
crisis is being conducted through j
the papal nuncio to Rome and the j
Italian ambassador to the Holy See. !
Others who have had experience j
in diplomatic tables between Rome '
and the Vatican also are taking
part in the activities and are look- '
ing forward to an amicable settle- j
ment.
Meanwhile Premier Mussolini;
made definite his order closing all |
juvenile organizations under Fascist!

- The SS Starr brings first de
i tails from Naknek of the death
last winter of the two-year-old
;Son of Martin Haugen.
! Oscar Kyander’s dog team driv
| en up to Red Salmon Cannery,
j where Haugen is chief winter man,
jwas tied some distance from the
house. Missing the child a short
time later the father was first
to discover the terribly mangled
remains among a mass of snarl
ing dogs and tangled harness in
front of the sled.
The dogs, of the same half
police breed which killed a small
boy a year ago, were all shot im
mediately with the exception of
the leader.
Commissioner W. B. Regan issued
a death certificate and voiced the
sumpathy of the community for
the parents in their loss which
was so tragically magnified by the
grewsome and horrible manner in
which the little fellow met his
death.
Ruth Lauritzen, who recently leftj
for Unga to visit with her relatives,
returned on the S. S .Starr last
| night. Miss Lauritzen will be an as
sistant in the dental ofice of Dr.
A. R. Roberts.
