The argument advanced in sup
port of the practice of permitting
the sale of liquor on American
ships, in violation of the spirit of
the Volstead act, if not actual vio
lation, is that American ships could
not compete successfully against
foreign vessels were they to be held
strictly within the dry law. Chair
man Lasker, of the Shipping Board,
urges that as his reason for not en
forcing the law on the high seas,
and it is assumed that President
Harding acquiesced in the violation,
inasmuch as he has taken no steps
to prevent it.
The News believes that Chairman
Lasker has sized up the situation
correctly. So long as foreign ships
continue the old-established custom
of serving liquor to passengers, the
American boats must do likewise if
they hope to receive their fair pro
portion of patronage—either that
or they must offer vastly superior
service in other respects, lower fares
and faster time—some inducement
sufficiently attractive to command
consideration, which is not easy in
these days of palatial voyaging.
Chairman Lasker has a good argu
ment. And so do those towns in
Alaska which are not permitted
the same privileges as their neigh
bors The News believes in law en
forcement, but not in the kind of
enforcement that permits one town
to run wide open while other towns,
are hounded to the point of exas
peration. There is too much discrim
ination in Alaska and ir. the States
—too much of that kind of enforce
ment that breeds contempt of the
law. If there is to be real enforce
ment, let it be general ani impartial
so that all sections of the country
will be on an equal f aoting, from
Nome to New York.
Gus Conradt was among today’s
arrivals from Fairbanks.
! The Moore launch arrived from
Fairbanks yesterday with a load of
Road Commission supplies for Hot
Springs, and Superintendent H. W.
Sterling and Foreman Irons. The
party resumed the voyage down

Hot Springs district and will then
go to Roosevelt, on the Kantishna
river. He will go into the Copper
Mountain region to size up road re
quirements and will return by way of
the Polychrome pass and Morino's.
He expects to be away about three
weeks.
The steamer Martha Clow, former
ly owned and operated by the Car
lisle Packing company, is enroute

nana some time tonight.

Tolovana at midnight and should ar
river here this afternoon. The boat

COPPER MOUNTAIN OUTLOOK
ENCOURAGING SAY ARRIVALS
There is promise of much activity
in the Copper Mountain section of
the Kantishna. according to Game
Warden J. M. Burrows, who arrived
from the Kantishna several days
ago. He says there is absolutely no
truth to the report that the Aitken
option has been thrown up. On the
contrary, the ore values are show
ing up better than anticipated and
development work is going ahead
steadily, with the promise that there
will be a lot of work done before
the close of the present season.
There is a small ’crew at work,
Mr. Burrow’s says, and they have
supplies enough to last all summer.
By that time enough work will have
been done to make possible fhe
formulaticfo of future plans.
It is understood that one of the
owners of the ground under option
offered to return the money that
had been paid him, but the offer
was not accepted, which is regarded
as substantial evidence that the
deal was a satisfactory one and
likely to result in the development
of a great mine in that district. i
The only thing that will retard
development, in the opinion of Mr.
Burrows, is lack of transportation
facilities.
