THEY ARE UNSELFISH
(New York Tmes)
One thing is certain about
the letter addressed by 45
religious leaders to Presi
dent Roosevelt urging him
to break with the present
economic system; and that
is the sincerity of the sign
ers. When the clergymen
and theologians inform Mr.
Roosevelt that ‘‘there can
be no permanent recovery
as long as the nation de
pends on palliative legisla
tion inside the capitalistic
system,” they are speaking
out against their own per
sonal interests. They are
advocating a policy which,
if successful,threatens their
own destruction.
So much is indicated by
what has happened to relig
ion and its ministers in the
one big country where cap
italism has been abolished,
Soviet Russia, and in the
bigger of the two countries
where capitalism has been
severely taken in hand,and
that is Germany. Official
atheism in one case and
neo-paganism on the other
are at war with religion.
Another thing to be not
ed about capitalism is that
under its sway a group of
clergymen and theological
professors may issue a man
ifesto advocating the aboli
tion of capitalism. It is not
easy to imagine the Presi
dent and executive commit
tee of the League of God
less in Soviet Russia ad
dressing a letter to Joseph
Stalin urging him to bring
back the profit system or a
letter addressed by Alfred
Rosenberg and the neo
pagans to Hitler advocat
ing a let-up on the Tews
and Catholics.
JOHN RUSTGARD
IN PRINT
(Ketchikan Chronicle)
John Rustgard, for many
years attorney general of
Alaska, is the author of an
article on “Human Rights
and Property Rights’’ in
the Saturday Evening Post
of January 4.
Friends of Mr. Rustgard
inAlaska heard some weeks
ago that he was writing ar
ticles, and that one was to
appear in the Post. Some of
those in Ketchikan who
have read the article ex
pressed praise for it.
In fact, praise must be
due Mr. Rustgard for it is
seldom that an Alaskan or
ex-Alaskan breaks into
print outside of the Terri
tory with anything not
about Alaska. In other
words, long years of resi
dence in the Territory gen
erally seems to give people
knowledge enough about
Alaska, but not knowledge
enough on general subjects
to set them up as authori
ties

Native to Custody of
U. S. Marshal.
David Kadashan, 21-year
old native, will get another
chance.
Federal Judge George F.
Alexander, after condemn
ing methods in which the
boy was released from pri
son following his suspen
sion of sentence for assault
with a dangerous weapon
on January 10, made this
order recently.
“If the Bureau of Indian
Affairs can’t take care of its
wards any better than that,
it’s none of my affair,” Jud
ge Alexander said. He or
dered Kadashan turned ov
er to the custody of the U.
S. Marshal until the boat
sails for Hoonah, his home.
“I refuse to send this boy
back on a charge like this,”
the judge stated. Kadashan
was arrested recently for
drunk and disorderly con
duct at the City Cafe, and
it appeared possible his sus
pension would be voided
and he would be forced to
serve out the three year
penitentiary term.
Chief of Police Roy Hoff
man, Assistant Chief W. J.
Markle, Officers Kenneth
Junge and O. I. Erickson
and Bob Kumamoto, of the
City Cafe at Juneau.all tes
tified regarding Kadashan’s
conduct, declaring he pick
ed up a steak from a custo
mer’s plate, chewed a piece
out of it and thru it on the
floor.
is.adasnan told the judge
he had no money and no
place to sleep, and he had
taken “a couple of drinks”
to keep warm.
Charles Hawkesworth,as
sistant director of the Bur
eau of Indian Affairs, stat
ed that Kadashan had a
written order from his of
fice to stay’ at the home of
Mr. and Mrs David Willett
and said Mrs. Willett told
him the native had been
there, and had gone out on
“a final spree” the night be
fore his boat sailed.—Jun
