THE HOME OF THE FREE AND THE BRAVE
And so our precious Wickersham Law Enforce
ment Committee, after months of alleged research and
many hundreds of thousands of dollars decides we
should have greater search and seizures in order to en
force the prohibition amendment. In other words, they
themselves propose to violate the fundamental law of
the land, which says that “every man’s house is his
castle.”
They propose to increase the tribe of skunks and
snoppers to peak in at windows or horn into our
personal affairs for pay or in order to graft off our
daily life. They propose to continue the rotteness that
is eating into the heart of the nation instead of cutting
it out with one bold stroke of the scalpel.
Further than that, they seem to be all mixed up.
They must have had some heated sessions like a bunch
of Kilkenny cats. The results of their labors are just
absolutely nill, except that the recommendation above
referred to will raise such a storm of protest through
out the country that it will sweep away all dry opposi
tion and make modification of the present prohibition
laws absolutely imperative.
The free born American citizen will stand a lot of
kicking around but when you walk on him and try to
rub his face in the mud, he some times gets angry.
COMMUNISTS ARE FEW
No immediate menace of communism threatens the
United Stares, in the opinion of Congressman Fish of
New York, chairman of the House committee investi
gating activities of communists in this country. He
states, however, that it is important for the govern
ment to keep informed concerning what the Reds are
doing, so as to be prepared to meet any situation which
may arise.
In a recent speech Mr. Fish took occasion to pay a
tribute of praise to American labor leaders and mem
ber of labor unions for their stand on communism.
In part Congressman Fish said:
“The most potent force against the extension of
revolutionary communism in the United States is the
American Federation of Labor, which, under the in
telligent, fearless and patriotic leadership of both Sam
uel Gompers and William Green, has stood boldly
against the attempts of communists to undermine the
faith of our wage-earners in our form of government
and in our free institutions. The entire American peo
ple owe a debt of gratitude to the American Federa
tion of Labor for not compromising with communism
and for waging a relentless war against it wherever
it shows its vicious and disloyal fang.”
While communists in the United States are rela
tively few, they are very active, and lose no opportunity
to foster class hatred, with the object to ultimately
foment a civil war whereby they hope to destroy
our form of government.
In this they will never succeed, but they can
make a lot of trouble and for that reason should be
closely watched.
Rum roundups running rum runners ragger ran
around rummy Atlantic reaches. Up here in Alaska
rheumatic relics rally around rheumy rocks. Coast
Guard Cutters caper carelessly cutting California cor
ners. In East bearded booze bandits bounced billow to
billow. Up here fearless fishermen find final finish be
reft beneficient benediction beatific bureau.
If present immigration laws had been in force ear
lier few of our ancestors would have gotten in.
At times silence connotes konwledge.
What! Haven’t the farmers been relieved yet?

Father Woodley, t h e young |
Catholic priest so well remem- |
bered in Seward during his brief ;
stay and who has been in the j
East for the past year, has sue-!
ceeded in obtaining an airplane j
to further his missionary work j
in northern Alaska.
While Fr. Hubbard, who is now j
in Seward, was in New York re- j
cently he found Fr. Woodley en- 5
deavoring to obtain his plane j
and Bishop Crimont, at Juneau. j
informed the Gla her Priest last
week that the plane was now
ready for the trip to Alaska and
would be here before spring.
It was reported that Fr. Wood
ley’s brother, a noted Army avia- '
tor, will accompany him. The!
date of his arrival in Seward I
will be announced later.
Fr. Hubbard expects to be met j
by Fr. Woodley at Holy Cross
sometime in April and after the
breakup on the Yukon will be
flown by Fr. Woodley across the
Kuskokwim country into the
Aniakchak Crater on the Alaska
I Peninsula.
Fr. Hubbard will remain there
for scientific work and Fr. Wood
ley will return to Kotzebue where
i he will probably be stationed
for the time being. The plane is
an amphibian.
