At various times during the past
115 years there has been an intima
tion that the Department of Jus
tice favored the combining of the
Second and Fourth Judicial Divi
sions of Alaska, so as to do away
with one set of judicial officials.
It seems that this matter is now
to be brought to a head through
the perpetuation by the Depart
ment of a bill for introduction in
Congress by the Judiciary Commit
tee which is brief but provides:
“That on and after July 1, 1932.
there shall be only one district
judge, one clerk of court, one dis

The other day in Washington a
rummage sale was being held for
the benefit of the Ketchikan hos
pital. It drew a large feminine
crowd, as well as Representative
Vincent Carter from Wyoming. The
latter, with his usual politeness
doffed his new fedora and placed
it on one of the counters as he
wandered about the room. When
his curiosity was satisfied the Con
gressman sought his hat which had
been sold, but he good naturedly
left the store room bareheaded, de
claring that a man must make sac
rifices for the unfortunate in these
days of depression.
When it’s developing and print
