DISTINGUISHED PSYCHOLOGIST
APPEARED IN SEWARD
Mrs. M. Fawlkes-Haun made a last
ing impression last evening at the
Liberty Theatre in her lecture recital
on Practical Psychology with a con
clusion of the phychology of Alaska.
As to material for the latter subject
Mrs. Haun wisely and happily chose
Robert W. Service’s poems to illus
trate her work. This recital feature
of the program was cerated entirely
by Mrs. Haun as a tribute to Alaska
and is a pretty compliment on the part
of the speaker.
Forcefully and clearly Mrs. Haur
presented her subject, the sub-con
scious mind, emphasizing from the
first the great Importance of the study
To quote the lecturer, “If you were
to ask me the greatest discovery of
the age I would unhesitatingly say:
The fact that the entire sub-conscious
realm is open to man< is his to draw
upon. Fifty years ago it was known
that only a small per cent of the vast,
yes. limitless domain could be drawn
upon; now it is known that it is man’s
lo u. e as he sees fit. There are sci
enu.'c principles, rules, formulas,
whereby the sub-conscious mind may
be reached and the right suggestion
given, yet ignorance is no excuse, and
the man who wrongly suggests,
I wrongly paints the picture to be used
by sub-conscious mind must suffer.”
Mrs. Haun had a message to give
her audience and it was impresively
presented. Mrs. Haun and Mrs. R. F.
Michael are making besides the Alas
kan engagement, a continental recital
tour of the states. They left today
for Anchorage and Fairbanks.
Anton Eide is in Anchorage on a

DEMOCRATS RECALL EXECUTIVE
VETO OF VOLSTEAD ACT,
BUT MEASURE PASSED
WASHINGTON, July *.1.--In tin- wet
and dry fignt which is certain to bo
waged at the next democratic conven
tion the influence of Woodrow Wilson
will be with the wet, or at any event
with the 'damp” section of ihe party.

was recalled that Mr. Wilson had in
dicated the outline of a light wine
and beer plank for the platform in
1920.
William Jennin ?<= Tiryan, leading the
opposition tor drys tr. the resolutions
committee, succeeding in defeating
an outspoken declaration for bever
ages of the lighter alcoholic content.
Mr. Wilson in the fall of 3 919 did
not hesitate to veto the Volstead Act
as it was submitted to him for signa
ture. It is true the veto did not get
anywhere and generally should be ioi
gotten b\ the public, because the
House passed the bill over the veto in
less than three hours after the mes
sage conveying the executive disap
proval was read. The senate was
somewhat more deliberate but it too,'
soon passed the bill over Mr. Wil
son’s veto, many members of the
president’s own party voting to over
ride his action.
Mr. Wilson’s veto message was to I
the point but interesting. It was dic-i
tated from his sick bed. He based his j
action upon the fact that the Volstead j
Act sought to give force and effect to!
war time measures. It is conceded;
that he has not changed his views,!
and if his influence counts for any- j
thing we may see a measure in the
democratic platform advocating the
manufacture and sale of light wines j
and beers.
Mrs. M. Fowlkes-Haun and Mrs. R.
F. Michael left on today’s train for
Anchorage.
Mrs. M. Ashton left this morning
