UP TO MINUTE CALENDAR
The most interesting and up-to-date contribution
to Alaskan geography is the calendar issued by the Paci
fic Alaska Airways. This calendar carries a map of Alas
ka on which aie superimposed colored mosaics depicting
•scheduled and non-scheduled air routes, exclusive of
Seward, showing the marvelous advance in aviation
within the past decade and how every point of the Terri
tory has been brought to within a few hours of the
Alaska Railroad.
These points enumerate, on the south Ugashik on
toe Alaska Peninsula, Nome on the west, and the entire
coastline from that point along northern Bering Strait;
ieto the Arctic Ocean to Point Barrow, angling back to
Fairbanks, where the loutes radiate from that air-base
like a spider’s web as far east as Eagle on the Interna
tional Boundary between Alaska and Canada, sweeping i
south to Anchorage.
Below the map is a series of winter illustrations,
with planes in flight, including one crossing the Alaska
Range and another on Muldrow glacier, Mt. McKinley, i
THE FIGHTING LAGUARDIA
Not approaching La Follette or Shipstead in point of
radicalism, but out-radicalling all other members of the
Senate, Fiorieila LaGuardia, while going down to defeat
in the Democratic landslide, promises to back off the
sfage with his back to the audience.
The happy condition of LaGuardia's radicalism is
that it does not reckon of visionary experiments in gov-;
eminent, but like a scapel seeks to pare away the puss
and decomposed tissue adhereing to the old-style states- j
manship. In his battle to expose rotteness, he has been
unsparing of ids own party, and this may account for
the order cf “thumbs down” for his candidacy to sue-;
cee dhimseii. No Democrat in the House could or has
“out-demonstrated" him, or been a more excruciating
painful thorn in the side of the treasury looters.
Like lightning, no one may guess where he will
stnke next. It was LaGuardia who dug up the facts and ■
figures which made President Whitney of the New York !
Stock Exchange wince when it was shown that that in-1
stitution had perouttea the shylock to assume a coat of
respectability wide n gouged its pound of flesh, under
the guise of ho..est banking.
It was he who disclosed that by administrative cun
ning it was possible to award a monopoly to quarries
which, suppheci stone tor the costly building program in
the national capita.!, simply by drawing specifications
and designations favoring one certain quarry, principal
ly7 that of Indiana, which supplies limestone to erect
buildings in .Massachusetts which has granite, as does
Tennessee and other states.
How LaGuardia wears the cloak of Republican as
epitomised by the gang just turned out of Washington,
is one of the political enigmas.
Tn this respect it might be fair to say that he is re
presentative of those honest Republicans of the Theodore
Roosevelt type who refused to trail their sense of honor
in the dust.
“The evil that men do live after them; the good is
oft interred with their bones” might fit Julius Caesar,
but was never intended to apply to the “Little Flower.”
LaGuardia oas piled up an ammunition dump for
the Democratic successors or others of his party suffi
cient to duplicate the “War of the Roses.”
It now remains for the Democrats to turn the La
ruardia artillery against what is left of the late big
potlatch.
Can you beat it. Due to increase in robberies at the
pemt of a gun a remedy has been found in granting more
permits to carry guns!
Tne Colgate professor who spent a year experiment- j
ing and us-d 10,000 works in a report of “How to Sleep ”
night have saved much time and money by giving a Geor
gia negro a plat* of hcg jowls, turnips, sweet potatoes
and a hunk of dark ling bread, and pointing to the shady
side of a barn.
Of the $25,0000,000 appropriated for Coast Guardi
Service $9,000,000 went for prohibition enforcement.
What the nation desires more than a scientist is
Einstein of beer.
Now that the Agricultural Department has given us
a J'1'detin on “How to Dress Turkeys” it should be fol-;
N- "d by one tolling how many safety pins to use in put-!
diaper on the punk.
