GOVERNMENT, QUO VADIS
The American Publishers Association, through Col.
Robert R. McCormick, publisher of the Chicago Tribune,
has launched a battle to break the Minnesota “gag law”
through which a judge suppression came thru injunction.
An ironical note intrudes into the battle for the
freedom of the press when it is pointed that the injunc
tion has been the weapon by which labor organizations
have been forced to yield. In these instances the met
ropolitan press was found supporting “law and order”—
the injunction.
The present situation brings to mind that it is nec
essary for the boot to overshoot the mark and land pro
miscuously upon the tender portions of mass anatomy
before they awaken to the fact that apathy when the lit
tle fellow is getting his, often results in emboldening
the kicker to apply the hob-nail higher up. We get this
here in Alaska every day.
This is what makes it so difficult for sincere, earn
est politicians to remedy our evils. There is too muchj
apathy; too much whispering for fear the entrenched
despotic powers wielding the sceptre might take urn-;
brnge, or feel called upon to apply discipline.
Now will somebody tell us if the roar in Congress
over the 18th amendment is directed at the law or the
brand of hootch they are doling out to the Solons.
lr on? b' clever in dodging expenses he will n >1
have to meet them.

GYMNASIUM FOR SN
With the basketball season over,
j and no apparent interest being
j manifested in Indoor baseball in
;8- A. C. hall, it was decided
at the last Executive Board meet
ing of the Athletic club to close
the gym April 1.
However, if there are sufficient
members of the club who want to
play baseball, the hall will be
held open for another month. If
there is any objection to closing
the hall April 1, the Executive
Board requests that those mem
bers who are in good standing
•who object, state their objections
to Miss Sylvia Sexton, before
March 31. Action will then be!
taken as thouht best for all mem- i
bers concerned.
T. W. Hawkins, prominent local!
business man, returned yesterday

GATEWAY, “ON VACATION*'
Electric power being turned
off this morning handicapped the
j Gateway somewhat in reporting
Ior elaborating on late news items
j Even when the power is turned
back two hours more are lost
while awaiting for the "juice” to
melt down the metal in the lino
type pots- Therefore, the day was
shot full of holes; practically
! everything appearing today was
set up the previous night. Allah!
