propaganda
Alaskans visiting in the States this winter bring
back the news that the Audubon Society of the United
States is using the radio to further the passage of a bill i
now pending in Congress designed to nullify the Act of i
the Alaska Legislature placing a bounty on eagles by
making the killing of these birds a misdemeanor. At,
the close of each broadcasted lecture, the speaker says:
'‘Write or wire your Congressman or Senator today ^so
that these magnificent birds may not be killed in Al
aska/’
We wish to call the attention of our readers to the
rattlesnake. We have no rattlesnakes in Alaska of
course, but we know as much or more concerning these
beautiful reptiles as the citizens of the States know;
about Alaska Eagles. We know that the first American
flag was decorated with a likeness of the rattlesnake
and the motto “Don’t tread on me.” We feel that a
creature so distinguished, should be treated with roore
consideration. It is rumored that many of the inhabi
tants of these United States, go out of their paths to
slaughter rattlers. If this continues the day may come
when our children and grandchildren will know nothing j
of this great symbol of American independence except
what they read in books. It makes us want to shed
tears to contemplate this terrible situation.
Let the people of Alaska arise. Let us. form so
cieties and hold mass meetings. Let us chip in our
extra dollars, if we have any, and hire a leather lunged
broadcaster. And let us petition our Delegate to intro
duce a bill making it treason or something else equally
virulent for any inhabitant of the United States to harm
or molest the great symbol of our Liberty, the Great
American Rattlesnake.

Now that a trip to Reno no longer guarantees a

The great disadvantage in exposing graft in public
office is that it furnishes a tip to the next crop of poli

A scientist claims to have discovered a tornado in
