THE NATIONAL REFEREE
No one individual in the history of the civilized
world, has occupied the unique and dual position of the
third man in the ring where two antagonistic forces are
facing each other ready for a fray.
This is the position the President occupies with re
spect to the European situation, and in respect to Big
Business facing Little Business, Organized Labor and
the unclassified public, which has an equity in anything
which might be promulgated by labor or business, large
and small.
President Roosevelt’s two-year industrial recovery
public works bill will create a still furter unique and his
torical revolutionary effect, n that it makes him the ar
biter of relationships between organized big business,
little business, labor and the consumer.
The bill makes elastic the Sherman anti-trust law, and
permits organization of distinctive branches of business
into trade agreements. At the same time the bill gives
the President power to determine if the organization is
one in restraint of trade or for creating a monopoly, or
essential to guarantee success for big enterprises. He has
the right to step in at anv time there appears to be dis
crimination against small business, decide upon what
constitutes proper hours for labor, and enforce a provi
sion that labor shall have the right to organize and bar
gain collectively.
This is a great historical departure in that hitherto
organization and combination was recognized as being
proper for business but improper for labor, and permit
ted the “yellow dog” mandate pledging an employee not
to join a labor organization if given work.
This is democracy with a big D and benevolent dicta
torship so impeccable that those who would criticize find
the words choking in their throat.
In the public works program it calls for federal, state
and local public buildings, construction and repair of
highways, elimination*of railway grade crossings, con
servation of natural resources (the forestry program),
construction of low-cost housing and slum clearance pro
jects.
He estimates that the additional revenue of $220,000,
000 necessary to be raised by taxation will be eliminated;
as soon as tl • Eighteenth Amendment is repealed, which
will provide this sum in revenue.
For a half-century business has been asking for it,
and had its own way. The spirit and hopes of the nation
are crystallized in Franklin D* Roosevelt. Thus far he
has not been found wanting in any essential.

ALASKA OLDTIMER
WRITES FINE VERSE
i Gaston St. Clair, an oldtimer of
Alaska and a resident of the Good
News Bay district, has penned some
fine verse some of which the Gate
way takes pleasure in publishing.
Mr. St. Clair is a patient in the
Seward General Hospital. He has
been in Alaska since the early
days and has spent much time
on the trail.
TO A MALAMUTE DOG
(By Gaston St. Clair)
They say you have no soul old dog
and yet I can’t agree,
For if some human curs I knew
could ever claim to be,
in any way superior to a heart so
brave and true,
I’ll never claim to have one boy
I’d sooner be like you.
You never failed me in a pinch no
matter how it went,
I’ve seen you pull with bloody
feet, half starved and almost spent,
You always knew my voice and step
and gladly did your share,
At times I’ve lost my temper
and you often made me swear;
But every time you looked at me
and wagged your bushy tail,
My heart was always softened
and my bluff of no avail;
I want no better soul than you,
although you are just a dog,
I’d gladly take the trail you go
’tho to me ’tis all a fog,
For love ar;d friendship like yours
’twas not my luck to find,
In my long, rough trail o’er hill
and dale among the human kind.
If you’re denied the soul you’ve got,
if such a thing there be,
Oblivion is better far for such
as you and me.
That successfully groomed, smart
looking coiffure you have long
wanted can be obtained for $7.50
from PEARL HENRY. Her DUART
permanents give the fastidious ap
pearance necessary to a perfect
ensemble. Call ADAMS 89 for an
appointment; any kind of beauty
work done which you desire.
