Of course we understand there is a dirth of material
when it comes to writing up Seward for the All-Alaska
Review (the Cordova Annual) so it was to be expected
the residents of that town would borrow if possible. They
worked and schemed until they got our Signal Corps
Headquarters and are doing their d—ndest to get our
court headquarters but when they cause to be printed a
picture of one of the pretty girls of Valdez and a dish of
our famous Valdez strawberries and label them “products
of Seward/’ that’s pure, unadulterated gall.
Valdez News Miner
Gee whiz! How does he know they were strawber
ries. perhaps the fruit was the famous “Raspberry.” Any
way, that’s an awful way for friend Wilcox to start off
the New Year, especially, when we were all set to never
again make ’em mad. My goodness isn’t Seward the
naughty thing. However, perhaps Editor Steel or his fine
shop craftsman, Jules Dahlager, will set Editor Wilcox
right. And we probably would have done exactly as Ed
itor Wilcox has done if someone had taken our thunder.
We have much admiration for an editor who is not
afraid to say what he thinks is right; and one who is not
straddling a fence.
A current magazine publishes a girlish statement
contained in the early diary of Peggy Joyce, who has
married nearly everybody: “As a matter of fact, I shall
never marry, because all men do is deceive their wives.”
Which illustrates the saying that a lady has the right to
change her mind, and generally does.
The prize dumb-bell of the season hails from a cer
tain point in the Interior. After losing a finger fooling
with a buzz saw he lost a second one showing a friend
how he lost the first.

PACT PLEDGES 60 NATIONS TO
FOREGO WAR: STUPEN
DOUS ACCOMPLISHMENT
WASHINGTON, Jan., 7, (A*)—For
nearly- four hours Saturday the
Senate debated the multi-lateral
pact for outlawing war. While j
the entire session was listless in j
character many members of the
Senate persisted in urging that the
'treaty be'construed in the resolu
tion so that Amercan rights under
the pact be made clear.
Effort was made by some Sen
ators to show the treaty would
link the United States to the
League of Nations and to the
World Court.
Senator Borah was roused by
the volley of questions addressed
him and in a lengthy speech ve
hemently urged that the “Tech
nical and academic” discussion be |
dispensed with.
The fundamental fact of the
pact is that it pledges 60 nations j
to forego war and, as such, is a
“Stupendous accomplishment,” he
said.
