ALASKA’S INDUSTRIAL FREEDOM?
In an address before the Tennessee legislature re
cently, Prof, Gus. W. Dyer, editor of the Southern Agri
cultunst, gave the lawmakers of his state some sound
advice on economic questions in which he stressed the
philosophy of giving the greatest possible freedom to
every individual.
Pie warned against socialistict paternalism in govern
ment, pointing out the disastrous results which have fol
lowed out such policies in European countries. By way
of contrast, he cited the great industrial development of
North Carolina, where Duke harnessed the waterpower
of the state unhampered by burdensome restrictions
and made it one of the most prosperous in the Union.
The Professor’s address to the lawmakers of Ten
nessee, where waterpower development has been retard
ed by political squabbling, was most timely, and the facts
which he presented might well be heeded by legislatures
of other states, and by the govennent, as well, located at
Washington, D. C. It was just a few days ago that an As
sociated Press dispatch notified the wide, worried world,
that the Federal Power Commission rejected the appli
cation of the Kassan Gold Company of Seattle, for a
power permit on Karta river, somewhere in Alaska. Its
whereabouts is of no particular difference but the fact
that the application was rejected because the Fisheries
department held that it was more important to protect
the salmon industry in that region than mere water
development, is something not to be passed over lightly.
Regulation of industry in a reasonable degree is
sound public poliev, but it can easily be carried so far
as to interfere with progress, or stop it altogether. And
authority such as this example h»s been one of the curses
of Alaska’s slow progress. We fail to discern the differ
ence in boosting one natnral resource along to the detri
ment of another which has an equal right to live. It ap
pears that the power commission and the fGheGes de
partment have a power in their hands which the late
Czar of Russia never dreamed of possessing. Industry
should be given the greatest measure of freedom con
sistent with the public interest.
Although Mr. and Mrs. W. O. Irwin of Mi so G ave
had their troubles, they have managed to keep them im
ily fairly close together. With three sons' they are raw
ing a five-year term in the penintentiary after the v, nole
family pleaded guilty to stealing about 1,200 chickens.

RAMON NOVARRO
(Who \v#s the hero of “Ben Hur.”)
Supported by Marceline Day, Roy D’Arcy,
Marc McDermott in a movie play of the great
JOSEPH CONRAD NOVEL
THE ROAD
TO ROMANCE”
A great tale of the pirate days around Cuba
when Captain Kidd, Sir Francis Drake, Sir
Henry Morgan, and other famous men battled
in the Caribbean Sea. Of the days when going
to sea was a great adventure with more than an
even chance of being captured by a pirate.
Of thelime when very prominent men of all
nations were silent partners of a pirate ship.
Come and see a thrilling sea and land story with
all the settings in the beautiful West Indies.
Novarro h-’s the role of a young Spanish noble
man seeking, and finding, adventure and ro
t ince in the new world.
The ships and land scenes are perfectly true
to the time and seeing this picture takes you
right back to the time when this country was
young and weak. This is the best picture Novar
ro has made since “Ben Hur.”
