ROOSEVELT DAY, OCTOBER 27
Alaskans are reminded that October 27, is the Seven
ty-third anniversary of the birth of Theodore Roosevelt,
and it is desired to direct the attention of the people of
Alaska to the achievement and ideals of this noted citizen
Theodore Roosevelt devoted a large part of his life
to public service. He gave his best efforts to the perpet
uation of our institutions and his life should be a source
of inspiration to every American. It is more fitting that
the anniversary of his birth should be made the occasion
for reminding us of our obligations and the privileges
that we enjoy as citizens.
It is considered a privilege to hold before the rising
generation the example of an American who, handicapped
by physical weakness in his boyhood, did, by his indom
itable will and perseverance, transform himself into a
strong man and thenceforth used his strength for the bet
terment of mankind.
It is said that wine growers in France have become
indignant over Premier Pierre Laval not taking his quota
of permitted liquor when he departed for his visitation to
America. It is pointed out that Laval, who is a moderate
drinker of light wine, should invite President Hoover to
dinner at the French Embassy at Washington and serve
the. national French beverage at the dinner.
WORKMEN ON BOARD
Earning his living as a lathe operator in a Cincinnati
plant, Otis Snyder also sits on the board of directors of I
the company and takes a hand in running its affairs.
When board meetings are over he goes back to his lathe.
This peculiar arrangement is made possible by the
fact that the Procter & Gamble Company, doing a gross
yearly business of more than $190,000,000, has three di
rectors representing its employees, with voice and vote
equal with the capitalist members of the board, of whom
there are nine.
Employees now own 46,000 shares of the company's j
stock, with a total value of more than $11,000,000.
The custom of encouraging employees to own stock
in the corporations for which they work has spread rapid
ly during the past few years. It not only promotes thrift
among them, but makes them more interested in the suc
cess of the enterprise in which they are real partners.
Now that scientists have agreed among themselves
that man descended from monkey, taking possibly thirty
million years, it is up to somebody to explain his reversion
to prohibition and his femme to styles.

SEEKS FLIGHT MURKS
i
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 24. (/P)—
Upon a set of novel airplane wings
incorporating his own ideas Wilbur
Cornelius, salesman-aviator, will
\ depend almost entirely in an at
; tempt to break existing endurance
flight records.
And Cornelius, who is 32 and a
: resident of Glendale, Cal., has a
! world of confidence in his idea, for
he has been told by the War De
i partment that the wings are im
practical.
! Cornelius said he would attempt
i before long to circle the metropol
itan airport here for a month. He
intends to prove’ further that air
planes are safe, and that a magni
cian is not needed to fly one.
“It is all in the corrective stabil
ization wings,” he said. “With these |
wings I can set down a plane in 175
| feet and at the limit of climbing
power it will nose over into a hori- :
zontal position.”
“I can set the wings and fly at a i
given altitude as long as the gaso
line holds out,” Cornelius says. “I
can set the wings at 6,000 feet and
fly from here to Reno, Nev., and be j
6,000 feet up when I arrive. When
flying for endurance marks I’ll just
set the wings and go to sleep.”
Cornelius possesses a private pi
lot’s license. He wrote the late
President Woodrow Wilson about
the stabilization wings, but his let
ter was given the War Department.
He said he received a letter from
the department infoming him his
idea was impractical.
MEXICO CITY, Oct. 23. (JP)—Rus
sel T. Sherwood, business manager
of Mayor Jimmie Walker of New
York City, has been served with a
subpoena to appear before the Hof
stader investigating committee in
New York.
Sherwood said that he could not
recognize the service as it was not
legal.
Sherwood is wanted by the Hof
stader investigating committee to
explain the source of some million
dollars of brokerage discovered by
the committee in its investigations.
THAW OUT SECURITIES
WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 24. (A5)
—The Treasury moved to imme
diately thaw out a half billion dol
lars worth of frozen credit and let
it soak back into normal trade
channels. Announcement was made
by Secretary Mellon that the Treas
ury will accept gold notes of the
$500,000,000 National Credit Cor
poration as collateral to secure any
deposits of public moneys in any
designated Federal depositories.
