for presuming to state the reasons

therefore pass along exerpts that

“Gentlemen, there is no place that
you will ever put your finger on,
that needs a moral cleansing like
they do up in Alaska. And it can
not be done with the present mar

“The reason for this (inability

There’s This “Human
Side” To Gasoline
and Oil—
A 'very human one, we think—here in the West—to Union Non
detonating Gasoline and Aristo Motor Oil. And we believe that
youll be interested in it
YOU, probably, don’t think much
about the gasoline and oil you use.
You buy a good grade. One makes your
motor go. The other lubricates it. You
don’t check up very accurately on mile
age or on costs. You simply get “ten
gallons” or “a quart,” and off you go.
It’s rather impersonal.
* • * «
And yet a gallon of gasoline and a
quart of oil are chock-lull of personality!
There is the personality of those ex
tremely human beings who are intensely
interested in making theirs the best, even
if it be. by but a shade—and there ate
people like that in oil companies, just as
you may be like that in the business you
are in.
Speaking for das Company, we can
aay that we have hundreds of them
all vibrant personalities and all eager to
excel. For when they do excel they rise,
and are promoted, and their wives, their
children and their friends are proud of
They want to make a better gasoline,
a better oil, to satisfy a Batumi desire tt
work, achieve, surpass, succeed for'it b
simply human to do that.
* * * *
If you could ask any of our chemists,
or Union Oil refiners, or research men
—the men who handle the processes, or
those who check results—about the
quality of non-detonating Union Gaso
line and non-carbonizing Western
ARISTO Motor Oil, their conviction,
we believe, would convince you. Thdr
belief would inspire yoars. Their enthu
siasm makes you enthusiastic.
In them you would find the “person*
ality” in “Union” and “Aristo,” for them
simple-looking liquids are “the children”
of these men.
» * * *
If you could make one trip through a
Union Oil refinery and a research ptibt,
which would remind you of a unives*
fhtm.
You know what it
means. It isart extra
money in a salary raise or
a large income that yon
enjoy so much. It is the
achievement of which the
money is the evidence, and
you get the “kick” from
that.
So it is with “Union
03,” with Union Oil di
rectors and employes.
Atty, you would never
again think of noe-deto
nating Union Gasoline and
non-carbonizing Western
ARISTO Motor OH as
anything eke but intense
ty human things.
And you would be, a*
we are, so naturally amt
logically prejudiced in
favor of them that yon
would use them always in
your car thereafter.

ministration and enforcement. Un
der the Organic Act and other Fed
eral statutes law enforcement in
Alaska is placed entirely in the
hands of the Governor, the Federal
Judges and District Attorneys and
the minor officials who are their
assistants.” Appointed by the Presi
dent. The people of Alaska are in
reality suffering all the evils of
"carpet-bag” government in its
worst form.
Judge James Wickersham, form
er Delegate from Alaska and Hon.
Dan Sutherland were commended
for their courageous fight against
"those seeking to loot Alaska.
ureai corporate interests are
seeking to exploit those resources
without regard to their proper con
servation and with no thought of
the welfare of the people of Alaska.
The most rapacious of which is
the Salmon Trust, “whose unscru
pulous exploitation has almost ex
hausted the wonderful salmon fish
eries of Washington and Oregon and
is now rapidly exhausting the even
richer reserves of Alaska. An extract
from the Congressional Record in
which the Packers were condemned
most harshly for selling putrid sal

knowing at the time that ptomaines
In the pack would kill as many if
not more than would have German
shot and shell. Cheap labor being
the aim of these corporations, it was
more easily secured by hiring the
dregs and scum of Coast towns. At
tendant evils followed that were be
yond the comprehension of decency.
Between the Salmon Combine and
the vice ring Judges and district at
torneys are held in office who can be
“depended upon to protect their in
terests and to use the law to harras
the independent fishermen and oth
ers who are seeking to curb their
enormous power.” ***At present
present time these powerful inter
ests are seeking to retain in office
Federal Judges Reed and Ritchie
and District Attorney Shoup who
have shown a callous indifference to
the grievances of the decent people
of Alaska and have done everythng
Within their power to protect the in
terests of the Salmon Trust and the
vice ring.” Follows charges against
these officials that were proven be
fore the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"Instead of submitting their unan
imous report recommending the re
jection of the nominations of Judges
Reed, Ritchie and District Attorney
Shoup, to the' Senate, the Judiciary
Committee decideed to urge Presi
dent Coolidge to withdraw the nomi
nations because as one of the mem
bers of the Committee^ stated, “The
conditions were too scandalous to be
publicly discussed.” Accordingly
a sub-committee headed by the late
Senator Cummins was sent to see
the President and to urge him to
withdraw the nominations so that
their public exposure might be pre
vented. The advice of this commit
tee prevailed and on June 4, 1926,
President Coolidge withdrew these
nominations. Although five months
have since elapsed these discredited
officials are still permitted to remain
in office by the President
In spite of the action of the Sen
ate Committee, protests of Alaskans
and others, President Coolidge has
not seen fit to remove these men
from office preferring to wait upon
the turn of the election just past.
The attempt to discredit Delegate
Sutherland fell flat and his state
ments and actions vindicated by the
majority of the electors of Alaska.
‘Nevertheless it may be safely
predicted that if these officials are
still in office when the Senate meets
there wilt be a vigorous fight by
those Senators who heard the damn
ing testimony against them to se
cure their immediate removal.”
Perchance there will be given the
next Congress impeachment proceed
ings in lieu of proceedings against
Judge English resigned. In the
meantime Alaskans wonder why it
is that these discredited officials re
fuse to tender their resignations and
toereby remove from the President
an embarrassing position.
“A decent and manly examination
of the acts of government should
be not only tolerated, but encour
aged.”

dent of the United States. 1841—
