EVIDENCE OF PROGRESS
The announcement from Washington to the effect that
KFQD radio station at Anchorage has been granted per
mission to increase its power and install additional im
provements will be received with pleasure by the host of
friends and patrons of the service.
The announcement also indicates what may be ac
complished when the unbeatable spirit is behind an en
terprise. Step by step “Mac” and “J. P.” have forged
ahead in their efforts toward an ultimate goal until they
ihave neared the point where broadcasts from Alaska
reach the States on regular program?. What this
means, once it is taken advantage of, to broadcast Alaska’s
resoures and opportunities is inestimable in value.
What the Territory needs most is the proper sort of
propaganda and publicity. There is no reason why both
the Territory and the Federal government should not a
vail themselves of this opportunity to reach the millions
of people in the States who would respond to an appeal
to cast their lot in Alaska.
Like the little oak from acorn 'grown, KFQD has
emerged a credit t oits sponsors.
VALIANT GUARDIANS OF PEACE
Gangsters murder and kidnap, yet can only be reach
ed by income tax collectors. But when the hungry parade,
armed only with their vocies, cry for bread, police at
tack in force, bludgeon them into insensibility, pack the
jails. No, Russia is wasting money trying to create a red
uprising. Let the police continue. They are doing better
than Stalin could hope for.
While Congress in its efforts to find who has all the
money by playing the time-honored game of “button, but
ton; who’s got the button” like Mark Twain’s white ele
phant, it is light under the dome of the Capitol—expen
sive government.
Presumably as another effort at farm relief, the De
partment of Agriculture has issued a bulletin on “Canal
Boat Children.”
It is said that moonlight inspires the writing of
poetry. And moonshine produces the urge to try to sing
it.

The raven is a more deadly men
ace to the fox farmer than is the
eagle; it even craftily inveigles
the larger bird to its aid when a
too large fox is spotted, says J. M.
Bennett, a recent Seldovia visitor
from Chugach island, a blue fox
preserve.
