LOUISIANA A SPECTACLE
Never was an American state a more abject and hum
iliating spectacle than Louisiana today under the heel of
Huey Long. Outside of the jurisdiction of the federal gov
ernment and federal law, there is no law in Louisiana except
the pleasure of Huey Long. He runs state and city govern
ment. The governor, the legislature, the courts, even city
administration, are his puppets. The will of the people of the
state is no longer of any importance. Huey Long prefers to
rely on the National Guard. The opposition is somewhat
stubborn in Baton Rouge. So Baton Rouge is made a min
iature District of Columbia, proclaimed the capital of the
empire, its people disenfranchised. It is small wonder that
men organize and arm themselves in Louisiana.—St. Paul

WHEN YOU GET THE BLUES!
When you get the blues don’t be a weekling and sur
render to them. Change from your petty, self-centered, dis
couraging thoughts to a high level of constructive thinking.
Dwell upon your blessings, your unused abilities, and
the golden opportunities that await your earnest effort.
Know that you can be master of your moods, and that by
substituting hopeful thoughts for erroneous ones you can be
gin right now to advance towards the goal of useful achieve
ment. *** Know that you are equal to every situation and
that you can now rise superior to the enemies of your peace
and happiness—By Glenville Kleiser in March “Psychology”
PUBLICITY IS PUBLIC FUND SAFEGUARD
Judging by the number of investigations that are being
made of the expenditures of our state and national officials
there is a need for the development of an informed and in
telligent citizenship.
The state law requires or permits county clerks, city
clerks and other official tax-spending bodies to publish a
statement of all claims authorized and ordered paid. The
purpose of the law is to acquaint the interested citizen with
the expenditures of the various units, to advise them as to
just how and for what the tax money is being spent.
It was one of the wisest laws ever enacted from the
standpoint of safeguarding public funds and insuring them
against waste, extravagance and misuse. When the con

trolling body knows that it must account publicly for every
cent it spends and that every citizen is to be given the oppor
tunity of scrutinizing every item of expenditure, there is a
natural tendency to be careful and cautious in the appropria
tion of funds.
Without any reflection upon anyone, we undertake to
say that many unwise expenditures would not have been
made had the government bodies known that the full glare
of publicity would be turned upon their monthly claims.—

Andy Allen Is
Shot to Death At
(ihitina, Alaska
DORA. WIFE OF THE MURDERED
MAN. RUSHES INTO NIGHT
DIES FROM EXPOSURE
VALDEZ, March 15—The Valdez
Miner says: On Sunday, March 10,
Karl Syvertsen, aged 42, shot and
killed Andy Allen, a well known
old-timer, while the men were en
gaged in a drunken orgy in Allen’s
cabin near Strelna. Dora, the wife
of Andy Allen, became alarmed,and
rushing out into the night in light
clothing was found dead next morn
ing on the trail, her death having
been the result of exposure to the
elements.
Syvertsen had lived around the
Chitina district about eight years,
and made his home about a mile
from Strelna. Allen was well known
here, having been brought to Val
dez some time last year, by Deputy
Marshal Wilcox and confined in the
federal jail for an alleged infraction
of the law.
U. S. Marshal C. J. Todd states
that news regarding the tragedy is
somewhat vague, but that it appears
that Syvertsen, Allen and Allen’s
wife, Dora, were engaged in a drink
ing spree at Allen’s cabin. An al
tercation ensued and Allen and his
wife left the cabin and went out to
the trail. Shortly after Allen re
turned to the cabin alone, and with
in a half hour or so the shooting
occurred. Dora was not seen until
her body was found on the trail, the
woman apparently dying from ex
posure.
Deputy Marshal McDermott ar
I
; rested Syvertsen, and he is now con
fined in the jail at Chitina. No pre
i liminary hearing has been held as
yet.
