THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE “ALL THE NEWS ALL THE TIME” VOL XXXIII., NO. 4958. JUNEAU, ALASKA. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1928. MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS PRICE TEN CENTS YOUTHFUL SLAYER CONFESSES ONE CRIME NOT FOUR I PROSPERITY IS STILLSHOWING UPWARD TREND 1 c La. t Official Pronounce- j ment of Hoover Is Made Public Today I BUILDING ACTIVITY MOST SATISFACTORY i Conditions of Country mlj All Lines Indicate Financial Health WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-^Her bert Hbover’s last official pro nouncement as a servant of tlie government before his election as President, was made public t-xlay In the form of the annual report of the Commerce Department for the fiscal year 1928, which closed last June 30. The document’s keynote stres- sed "the remarkable continuity of the prosperity of the United States during recent years and its pre-] vailing upward trend.” In the' foreword, usually the Secretary’s own production, the steadiness of prices, the improvements in trans portation, ami the phenomena of finance were treated, while agricul ture was given a special study. “Viewing (he agricultural sltuu-' tlon as a whole, no very marked difference appears between condi tions in the fiscal year 1927-28 and the preceding fiscal year,” Mr. I Hoover’s section said. "The crops1 harvested in the autumn of 1927 were in the aggregate of approxi mately the same magnitude as those of 192(1 and larger than in any pr('?Tt)if?'T?af eWPpf *f$YSs'iitfd’ 1920. i Demand for Production "It is true, that the increase in agricultural production both over a long period of time and during recent years has been decidedly j less rapid than that in the produc tion of manufactured and mineral products. The demand for farm j products, which are for. the most) part, necessities of life, tends to in- j crease little if any more rapidly I than population. On the other! hand, there is practically no limit to the demand for manufactured commodities, many of which are in tin- nature of semi-luxuries or lux uries. Even if the need for one type is' fully met, new and more highly elaborate articles, are con stantly coming into use with the advancing standards of living and of equipment for production." Building Turning to another field, the re port marked that “during the past seven or eight years, the amount I of construction (of buildings) in the United States has been un-' paralleled in the history of this j or any other important country.” “This high activity reflects both I expansion of the equipment of in dustry and commerce,” Mr. Hoo ver's report said, after giving the figures of the continuation, “and marked improvement in the quali ty of that equipment, and, above all, in the quality of the hotne3 of the people.” R. R. Business Good Railroads were said to “have continued to furnish adequate ajid efficient service and to enjoy large traffic and revenues.” “The betterment of railway serv ice has been the result of an ef fort on the part of railway com panies themselves," it was added, "and of cooperation on the part of hippers and receivers Of merchan dise. The railway companies have improved their roadbeds and equip ment. The cooperation of busi ness men has been particularly conspicuous in the form of regional advisory boards of the American Railway association. Gold Movement t Analyzing the movement of gold to Europe, with the fluctuating re serve hank rate that has aecom panied it. and the resulting swings In bank deposits, it was said that after making allowance for "the extraordinary volume of trading on the stock exchanges," the citu aticn indicated “a healthy state of business activity.” The country’s foreign trade was illustrated by special report sec tions prepared by Dr. Julius Klein, the department’s director in that -j activity. Canada’s emergence as the best customer of the United States displacing Great Britain from a long held post, was noted and the conclusion was expressed (Continued on Pace Seven PRECEDENT OF MANY YEARS BROKEN BY CURTIS' ELECTION TO SENATE RULE By FRANCIS M. STEPHENSON (A. P. Staff Writer) WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-*Look ing down on the Senate this ses sion from his presiding seat, Viet President Dawes will see almost constantly before him hi3 successor in office- Sen. Charles Curtis of i Kansas. Moreover, as Republican leader of the Senate the next Vice Presi dent will be thrown in daily con tact with Mr. Dawes. It is the prob ability that the session will find Senator Curtis arguing against de cisions of the presiding officer on some of which he himself will be called to decide in the next con gress. 14, The situation is a new one for the Senate. Not in the last half century has the Vice President, whose duty it is to preside over the Senate, been chosen from that body’s ranks. Back in 1S32. h w over. John C. Calhoun resigned as Vice President to became a senator from South Carolina. The picture this session might well lie entitled ‘‘the master and pupil.” but it liaprieiis that the pu pil. Senator Curtis, is a precocious one, for he is the author of much of the master's text book—the book on rules. In his third of a century in congress Senator Curtis has been particularly interested in the fram ing of rules, and ho Is regarded as an expert on the subject. For many years he has been chairman of the Senate rules committee, and j he takes office next March 4, prob ably one of the best qualified pre siding officers of the Senate In his-j tory. Senator Curtis is credited with the authorship of that rule prevent ing the addition of new legislation to bills when they were in the LINER ALASKA I RUNS ON REEF, IS RELEASED Steamer Hits in Wrangell Narrows Lifeboats Are Made Ready SEATTLE, Nov. 30.—Confusion (occurred aboard the liner Alaska, j when losing the way in the dark- ness Wednesday night the steam-; i er grounded on a reef in Wran jgell Narrows near Petersburg.

Y„ Nov. 30.—Fed eral and County officials are today investigating a fatal shooting by the Coast Cuard when a cabin cruiser bug was captured on lake Ontario neur the mouth of the Ni 1 agara River. 1 Carl Anderson, aged 38, one of the bug's "crew, was shot to death, and Edmund Sand, 24, and other J members of the crew were serious. ly wounded.

The outlook discloses nothin of an exciting or startling nature ho-1 yond the unsolved problem; 1 ft from Ihe last session, but then it is difficult to tell Just what the iilll members who make up the house and senate will sllr up before the Seventieth Congress passes into history at noon, March 4. Farm relief, the uoial batch of annual appropriation bills, the Kel logg peace treaty. Moulder Canyon dam and the 1271,000.000 naval building program arc among the major tasks to be tackled at the short session starting December 3, although congressional leaders are. undecided whether the faun problem should be taken up im medlately or postponed for a spec ial session in tho early spring. Anti-Injunction Proposal While these questions In the minds of many members hold fore most positions a host of other sub jects are rubbing shoulders with one another to obtain points of vantage.

New Farm Bill On farm relief Senator McNarj of Oregon, who heads th agricul ture committee, has announced hi will introduce a new bill minus the controverted equalization f 1 provisions.

NORTHGOTT IS GRILLED HARD BY OFFICERS Confesses to Murder of Mexican Lad on Cali fornia Ranch REFUSES TO ADMIT 3 OTHER SLAYINGS Young Man Extradited from B.C., Taken South, Talks to Officers BAKERSFIELD, Cal., Nov. 30. Deputy District Attorney Earle Redwing, of Riverside County, announces that Gordon Northeott, extradited from Canada, where he was captured and brought hack to the scene of his alleged farm payings, has made com plete confession to the murder of an identified, Mexican youth on the Nortlicott ranch. Redwing said the youthful slay er said he told the officers that Sanford Clark, his 15-year-otd nephew, and principal accuser, aided him.

I 1 Smaller Flock of “Lame Ducks” than Usual Are Going Back to Congress [SWALLOW FLOCK- 1st pat;!'. WASHING TON, Nov. do The j Hock of "lame ducks" in the house 'during the coming thwe-months session of Congress will be slightly below the average over a number of years. William Tyler Page, clerk of tile J House, who abhors the use of the' term “lame duck" and politely scolds newspaper correspondents! every time they use it In-con versa- Itlon with him. has estimated that this winter only a fraction more 1 than nine per cent of the House j membership will be in the "lame j duck" class. The average, he says, usually runs about 12 per cent. The 'Maine ducks," or those mem bers who still have three months to serve after defeat at the polls. r

will number -10 in the House. Of this number, nine were defeated in primary campaigns for the nomi nation of their respective parties, and the other 31 were beaten in the national deeti-n. Besides these 10 who will retire from Congress March 4. there also will be 2!) more who will give up their seats of their own accord. In addition six members have died since the Seventieth Congress was sworn into office a year ago. Thus in the next Congress, the Seventy-first, there wjll be 75 new faces unless the number should be increased further by deaths this winter. Of this group leaving the house of their own accord, a few were Ccntlaued on Page Two.)

More than a thousand extras, most of them Mexicans and Spaniard appeared In the big scenes. Novarro is seen at his best in the role of the handsome and dash ing Jose Armando, ready with blade or brawn, to defend his lady love. Miss Day, seen as the gentle woman on a great Cuban estate, is very convincing. In fact, she looks not only worth fighting for but worth dying for. There is an excellent cast of players and each is peculiarly fit ted to the role which he plays. Roy D'Arcy is seen to especial ad tantage as the crooked Cuban judge.

I Barrymore, ever forceful and convincing, seemingly unlimited in his capacity for varied characteri zations, sets a standard in this vehicle which even he will find difficult to surpass. Given a story that muni have been very much to his liking, he succeeds In so submerging his identity in his role that it seems to be really Francoi.s Villon, beloved French I ppet of the fifteenth century, who I returns to entertain us with hla brilliant moments of inspiration. Sterling patriot and gentleman, skilled above all other versifiers of his time, and yet a housebreak er and profligate, Francois Villon is perhaps the most whimsical an:l charming of all history’s romantic figures. The role of Francois Villon is “made to order” for Bar rymore (time worn as the phrase may be), but this does not do jus tice to him. The reason for his triumph is not found in such a simple combination of circum stances. Barrymore makes Vil lon a living being on the silver sheet—a character distinctive and different to anything he has ever done previously. The excellence of the characterization is not due alone to the fortunate suitability of the role to the player, but is principally the result of Barry more’s great artistry and creative ability. “ALTARS OF DESIRE” COMING TO PALACE Mae Murray and Conway Tearle are the featured stars in "Altars of Desire” coming to the Palace Sun day night.

It is argued that with a farm bill out of the way it would bo easier to; determine what tariff changes I might be desired from the farm* viewpoint. Pressure for consideration of] the naval bill, which would provide for the building of fifteen 10,0u0 ton cruisers and cne aircraft car- o rier, is expected to be forthcoming n from administration sources. The R measure, which paused the house j b last winter, was presented to can- 'i gress as having the lull support ja of the navy department, and Presi- 1 dent Coolidge in an armistice day i address advocated building up the 1 navy. Kellogg Treaty The Kellogg treaty, which would have the American government re j nounco war as an instrument of v national policy, probably will com 1 before the senate at a compara- tively early date. The proposal has been indorsed by Senator Itorah of Idaho, chairman of the N senate foreign relations committee, I which group will have jurisdiction t [over the treaty. J While a bill proposing a plan for v the voluntary consolidation of rail, j roads was reported by the house commerce commission last session, j. it is problematical if the measure will negotiate the entire legislate' pathway before March 4, when der constitutional mandats th. seventieth congress takes its place c in history. j As for the appropriation bills— p the big task for every short ses- sion of congress—a start already has been made by the house ap propriations committee, which is charged with the responsibility of n whipping the minto shape.

DENIES INDIANS TO ABANDON POLITICS: SAYS REPORT FALSE DOUGLAS, Alaska, Nov. 28, 1928—(The Editor, The Empire) —"There was no such pledge of non-partisan made to the Metla katlans as stated by Rev. Marsden and Herbert Merchiscn to the Juneau Empire, printed and pub lished on Monday, Nov. 16, 1928. "Mr. Merehison’s and Rev Marsden’s staement that the Al aska Native Brotherhood has abandoned politics is absolutely false and groundless. Questions asked by Mr. Merchison as he claims, are not on record as there were none made by him. "There were no such promises made to the Metlakatlans when they joined the Alaska Native Brotherhood. They joined of their own free will, and they were the ones to make promises to the Constitution of the Alaska Native Brotherhood. “The controversy between Rev. Marsden and the Brotherhood started in 1921 at the Douglas convention when Rev. Marsden tried to turn the organization into a Christian Endeavor So ciety. At that time Rev. Marsden was told the Alaska Nativo Brotherhood was a non-sectarian tl Candidates for Hoover Cabinet riioto shows, I. to r..

This is what the Al aska Native Brotherhood means by ‘non-eectarian.’ ‘•Up to this time Metlakatla was never legally represented at the A lasku Native Brotherhood conventions as there never was a Camp of the Alaska Native Broth erhood tn that town. There were thirty men joining the Alaska Native Brotherhood, and eleven women joining the Alaska Native Sisterhood at Sitka.

One of the results of the recent election was another postponment of the hope of full Terri torial government for Alaska. The people of Alaska and those of the Nation have endorsed the centralization of authority at Washington— particularly as far as Alaska is concerned. We shall have to continue to place our reliance on the wisdom and beneficence of the bureaus. Under the circumstances we are specially for tunate that the bureaus which operate id Alaska are efficiently organized, that their Alaska rep resentatives are thoroughly competent and earn estly imbued with the ptirpose to make the public service of real use in the development of the Territory. They have the confidence of the people |i of Alaska and that of the Government at Wash- ingtcn which, itself, is anxious to contribute j in any reasonable way to Alaskan development. At the present moment the Forestry Bureau is devoting its energies to bring about pulp and paper development, the Fisheries Bureau is doing its level best to solve the fisheries problems and; the road building organizations are at work for I the good of all concerned. A competent and 11 broad-minded man is at the head of the game 1 organization. 5 While Ibis is an anomalous situation for an American people, accustomed to progressing under j local self-government, to be in, there is nothing f left for us but to make the mcst of it. We should eo-operate in every possible way with I the powers that be. We have the consolation of t knowing that it might he a lot worse, for we I have the assurance of past performances that the bureaus are disposed toward co-operation. We 1 have the further happy knowledge that honesty, J Industry and good faith arc characteristic of the bureaus and their local representatives. t THE PETITION FOR FREE RURAL MAII DELIVERY. i v s The circumstance that 102 residents along the Glacier Highway have petitioned for free rural mail delivery is testimony of the benefits that are being derived from that thoroughfare. Roads leading out from the Important towns of Alaska are among the most helpful agencies in the development of the Territory that we have. Every mile of such construction adds to the ca pacity of Alaska to absorb needed population. These roads add to the opportunities of resi dents of the Territory. Those along the roads in the vicinity of Juneau would make a good sized town if they were all in one place. As it is they contribute immensely to the business and life of this City —and. thereby, to the Territory. Not only do they add to the volume of Juneau's business and make the town larger and more prosperous, but they, due to the character of the roads on which they live, have easy access to a good town and the advantages that go with that. The petition for a free rural mail delivery ought to be granted without undue delay. d t 1: a P it a 0 1 1) f n s a a ll r t: o THE SOLID SOUTH AND DEMOCRACY. t The Solid South between Reconstruction and Bryan, consisted of sixteen States Delaware, Maifland. Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas aud Missouri. Ilryati managed to discard Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri. In the meantime Okla homa was admitted and held membership for a short time, and then was sloughed. With her went Tennessee, .and there were oniy ten States that could always be counted upon to give elec toral votes to the Democrats. Now Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Texas have joined the exodus, leaving the once formidable array of Stales that gave the Democrats thirty-odd Sen ators and a large group of Representative*, and all their electoral votes every four years, con stituting the Solid South, have been reduced to six States—South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. o a c It (1 f P Si t: o t ii t ti I sy the ice floes. An attempt to reach the hard iressed adventurers by airplane failed. There is (rave possibility that Wrangell Island will be the cene of another grim tragedy. Only bad luck has attended man's efforts to icttle on Wrangell Island. It has seemed that he guardian spirits of the icy waste have re lented human encroachmen and have contrived to iring every enterprise to disaster. Three of itefansson’s 1914 expedition are buried on the Hand. Seven years later three men lost their ives in an attempted retreat to the mainland, eaving an Eskimo woman to nurse a dying com ade. The Noice party was taken off by a Soviet hip four years age, glad of the opportunity to es- j ape from Wrangell's sinister atmosphere. The various attempts to settle the island iave given Russia the idea that it possesses ome value. The Soviet flag was planted there our years ago and notice served on the world o keep off. No country wishes to dispute Rus ia s claim. The inly use that the world might iave for Wrangell would be a landing place for ranspolar aviators, and there is at present o great demand for such an airport. Russia iay get what satisfaction it can from holding t and trying to colonize it. For the rest of the iorld, the Island has too many tragic memories i) f>€* attractive. If there isn’t a hoodoo on it. hen there Is something that amounts to the c ante thing. The Radio Rescuers. (New York World.) Had the Vestris listed and sunk in pre-wireless lays her passengers and crew would have had he slender hope of reaching in their little boats n an angry sea a shore more than 200 miles way. or of being sighted by chance from some mssing craft. Probably the boats would have leronie separated in succeeding nights of striving oid suffering. Very likely nobody would have urvlved exposure and the storm, and the fate '.f the slliI' would have been added to the long ist of mysteries of the sea. Very different was what happened.

At first the lifeboats re nal ned unsighted; the location of the sinking hip given by wireless before she sank did not gree with that worked out by dlrcetion tinders nd triangulation; and there was the drift dur ng many hours to complicate still further the eckoning.

Just As Scarce Flush: “Have you seen one of the new $10,000 bills?” Hardupp: “No, I haven’t even seen one of the new $1 ones.” i Lucky “Did he see the point of the joke when you put a tack in his! chair?” “No. he missed the point, he sat down in another chair.” 55 More Or Less True The reason some men are disap pointed in marriage is because they expected to be treated like a king and are being treated like a board- er who is six weeks in arrears. The difference between the kiss an old married woman gets and the one a movie heroine gets is about 40 seconds. The only thing funnier than what girls order for nmals is what they marry for meal tickets. The reason a man thinks his wife hasn't any sense of humor is because she doesn’t l»ugh herself into hysterics over a joke he's told at every company dinner they’ve had since they have been mar ried. Evidently modern girls aren’t afraid of getting burned, for you never hear of one taking a fire extinguisher along when she is going out with flaming youth. If the furniture looks shabby it is a pretty sure sign that dad's salary is too weak to carry install ments on anything more than a car and a radio. It's barely possible some girls consent to a companionate marri age ivecause a daughter now is as free to bawl out her parents be fore marriage as she is her hus band afterwards.

Now that friend wife has to have hub's razor used on the back ol her neck she probably has learned to quit using it as a corn knife and pencil sharpener. You can tell by meeting the wife whether the money the hus ba«i regrets having spent most was for a marriage license. The reason a bridegroom is an optimist is because he doesn’t yet know women well enough to real ize she never is satisfied with a thing after she gets it home, no matter how enthusiastic she is abou getting it. The ideally married man is one who can come home and ask if supper is ready and not get bawl ed out even if his wife is just starting to get it. A cornfed is a lass who thinks there ought to be a law against styles for slender silhouettes. Now and then we see a flapper who looks like it's a trial to her not to be able to even go around with her skin off, too. The old married man who once, seeing a woman setting ahead of hint with a couple of buuons at tha back overlooked, had an impulse to lean forward and attend to them, now is so busy noticing what she hasn’t got on he doesn't see anything that's wrong witn what she has.

W. J. Reed, Deputy Collector of Customs at Nome who arrived here early this week. The stones apparently had been used at some time as anchors. They were discovered by Wells Brothers, well known miners of the Kcugarok, under an over buden of 18 feet of gravel. Some of them, shaped in parallelogram form, had groves or channels cut around them. Others oblong and round in shape had holes drilled through them. Both the grooves and holes were worn smooth us if cable had been used. Ordinar ily, it was thought they had been used for anchors, although there was no indication when or how! they came to be there, as the i Kougarok is 65 miles from the! sea.
