ALASKA VETS NEED

Ketchikan, Alaska, (Rpeciai)--- The
job of warding off the promiscuous
sympathy which comes from ex-soldiers
in sunny Florida and the Ice
bound coasts of New England for
their "poor" comrades here, has
fallen to the historian of the local
post of the American Legion. A let
ter which he has sent out explains
that the "rigors" of life in Ketchikan
lire mythical, and that service men
here are able to do an honest days
work without donning snow shoes.
"Tell us about riding to work be
hind husky-dogs, tells us about the
Igloos and the gold diggers and the
sourdoughs," cry the frantic buddfes
in letters from the states. And all
the time the Ketchikan boys sit In
their shirt sleeves, fanned by the
warm Japanese current that swings
in along the coast and gives Revilla-
gigedo Island a gentle, harmless cli
mate. "Please note the following," wrote
the historian, with a vicious dab at
his ink weU and a soft, inaudible
damning of the persons who Harbor
an unbridled, romantic conception cf
Alaska :
1. "There isn't a gold miner In the
post
2. The thermometer has never
dropped lower than five below.
Pope Benedict's attitude toward re
construction was most interesting, he
demanding a square deal for laboj
and asserting that profiteering, had
caused logical bitterness, and con
sidered that the profiteers should be
called upon to pay a large portion
of the cost of the war.
" 'We are all going to be poor! the
pope told me earnestly," said Sir
Philip. " 'We must steel ourselves to
poverty!'"
"If the foreign governments and
pooples had listened to the pope's
words, they would hare been better
off," declared Sir Philip. "Instead of
that, the British statesmen refused
to tell the people the truth. The Eng
lish and French people thought, for
three years after the war. that the
defeated foe would have to pay the
terrible cost of the struggle. The
frightful awakening came not so long
ago."

3. The deepest snow in recent

7. Xo one has ever worn furs or
ST"w shoes to a post meeting.
S. 'Gold fishing' is the principal in
dustry. 9 Xo one reads by the northern
liphts or the midnight sun."
The fact that people ride in auto
mobiles and play baseball heie is
evidently hard to understand in the
states, judging from the number of
cvrious inquiries which come in the
mails. Ketchiganers throw open their
vests and smile when they read of i
beavy snowfalls and traffic tie ups in
the states.
Cleveland, O., Jan. 31. Mrs. Vir
ginia D. Green, for ten years member
of the Cleveland board of education
and its present senior member, Las
announced her candidacy for election
as United States senator from Ohio
the first woman in this state and
one of the first in America to aspire
to a senatorial seat. She will run

Her announcement of her candulac
was brief, being simply that the seat
ing of Senator Truman H. dewberry
of Michigan by the senate imptilei
her to run from Ohio this ye::r as
"the protest' of women against tl.c
purchase of a seat in the highest trio-
unal in America."
"My candidacy is the protest cf a
woman against the prevailing system
of debauching the electorate, a pro
test against the use of money i'i buy
ing seats in the senate." she declared.
"America must not allow rimirs i'i
the senate to be bought and sold to
the highest- bidder. As elections arc
now run, American government is
not a representative government. The
senators do not represent the people.
They represent influences behind the
great wealth that put them in the
senate."
Mrs. Green pfans to conduct her
campaign from her home. "I will
oversee all the details of the cam
paign and will know every cent that
Is expended in furthering my enndt
dacy and election." she said.
Mrs. Green declared that she would
not be a candidate at the primaries.
