BORAH’S WARNING
Although it is not always possible to agree with the
views of Senator Borah, when it comes down to funda
mentals his ideas are generally found to be based upon
sound principles.
In a recent untterance he sounds a note of warning
which may well be heeded by lawmakers and public alike.
It refers to the ever-increasing tendency of government
agencies to regulate and dictate concerning every detail
of our lives and conduct. He said:
“The ability of the American people for self-govern
ment is being undermined by the government’s increas
ing regulation and interference with private and bus
iness life. Unless a halt is called we will have a republic
in name but a bureaucracy in fact—the most wasteful,
the most extravagant, the* most demoralizing and deadly
form of government which has ever tortured the human
family.”
Every new Federal bureau set up by Congress adds
to the tax burden and subtracts from the liberties of the
people. Besides, every bureau already in existence is con
tinually reaching out for more power and greater appro
priations. Regulation, inspection, investigation and
every form of harassment have been carried to a point
beyond all reason or necessity. Alaskans know this to be
true.
Still the bureaucrats and their legislative sponsors
are not satisfied. More and bigger bureaus are demand
ed—not because they will contribute anything to the hap
piness of the public, but because they make more and
bigger political jobs.
Ethiopia has ratified the treaty renouncing war,
thereby becoming eligible for a loan for military purposes.
The House has passed a bill requiring a doctor to at
tend all sessions to render aid in emergencies. Some
fierce gas attacks must be feared.

WARNING! Dont come late as some of the most
beautiful and finest scenes are in the 1st reel.
NOTE: This picture cost us a very large extra fee and we

done throughout the States, but wishing everyone to see it_

50c for children coming alone, and 25c for children with
