WHAT DO YOU THINK? |
Lay the map of the world before you and give it a
little intensive study.
Take a look at the United States of America, rich
and powerful, already trying to dominate South Amer
ica thru the force of commercial supremacy and where
that fails, using the military arms of the United States
to protect commercial interests as in Nicaragua, or by
furnishing arms and ammunition in Mexico to put
down rebellion and incidentally protect America com
mercial investment in that country.
Look at Northern Africa, the biggest colonization
project now going forward in the world where France
is trying to drive the Riff further back into the moun
tains of their own dunghills that France may inaugurate
big water-power and irrigation sites while the Riffs kill
off thousands of French soldiers and France increases
her standing army at home till its the biggest military
organization in the world today and her war debts still
unpaid.
Look at Gibralter where England still waves her
flag but would like to get Cueta on the opposite side of
the strait in Africa where she could place more cannon
but can not because it would precipitate another world
war and they are not just ready for it yet.
Look at the Chinamen and the Russian killing each
other over in Manchuria just because they can not agree
on dividing the profits of the Chinese Eastern Railway.
Look at the whole darn, bloody mess where greed for
gold, commercial gain and power are masqueraded un
der a thin veneer of patriotism called national expan
sion, and then wonder why some men were thrown in
jail because they refused to go out and kill to make
the world safe for democracy.
The aftermath comes strong and clear. Money was
spent by the big interests and combines to defeat the
disarmament movement. Gold is still working to that end
to make more gold because if we have more wars we
can sell more supplies. There is only one answer,—
when the next war comes along, draft the steel and pow
der makers first.
One reason why Seward is destined to become the
leading airport of this “neck of the woods” is because
of the time factor. Elimination of time traveling to
airports up the line is bound to come. The idea is, step
from a vessel arriving here, hop into a waiting airplane
and whisked away to one’s destination. One would be in
Anchorage in an hour; at Fairbanks in a couple of hours
more, and to Nome, probably in six hours from Seward.
We have been laying down on the job too long.
We notice in Territorial papers running weather
reports from all sections of Alaska that practically all
places are listed but not Seward. Something here for
Chamber of Commerce to look into.

| Last, night's regular session of
i the Sewprd city Council, Mavor
P C McMullen presiding, occu
pied less than one hour as little
business confronted the astute j
members.
Following reading of the pre- |
vious regular meeting and soecial j
session, the quarterly report of
the clerk of the school board was
re-^d and accepted
The street committee reported
the Second Avenue improvemnt
from the Urbach home to the
Federal Addition, had been com
peted 3,3 far as the season per
mits; the street is cut through
but owing to weather conditions
it is doubtful if the sidewalk will
be laid before next spring.
Authorization was granted the i
street committee to grade and
fill one block on Third Avenue
between Jefferson and Madison.
A number of requests for buy
ing of city lots are in the hands
of the taxation committee.
The request of Pete Michael
son offering $15 for a lot in the
Cliff Addition was also referred
to the taxation committee.
A warrant was ordered drawn
for the fire department covering
payment of a fire call of many
months ago. The Mayor and City
Clerk have power to sign vouch
ers upon two-thirds vote of the
council. i
BUSINESS IS GOOD
Winfield Ervin, cashier of the
First National Bank of Anchor
age, arrived in the city last even
ing from the Inlet city, on a brief
business visit. Mr. Ervin reports
Anchorage business conditions to
be excellent as well as all along
the railroad belt, generaly speak
ing.
