ABOUT FAR NORTH
By SCOTTY ALLAN
Students of the senior and Junior
high schools today were discussing
the colorful tales of the north re
lated yesterday
Uf "CT by AUan A- A
fST& lan, better known
as Sootty Allan,
the Alaskan
sourdough -who
is known the
world over as an
Arctic adven
turer and au
thority on hus
kies, those rug
ged dogs of 'the
far north.
Scotty address
ed the Junior
high school students yesterday
morning and the senior assemblage
yesterday afternoon, sandwiching in
a radio broadcast between the two
talks. He showed the students &
team of his famous -huskies har
nessed to an Alaskan sled, explained
how the dogs work and described
the life of , the Eskimos.
Shows Eight Huskies
The five dogs attached to the
sled, he told the students, could
do the work of a horse, only their
stamina was greater as they could
continue for miles after a horse had
become exhausted. Scotty, who is
making a speaking tour through the
west, had eight huskies-" with him.
five of them being harnessed to the
sled to demonstrate how they are
teamed.
Scotty told of his experiences in
the world war when he took 440
huskies to France to haul ammu
nition In the mountainous regions
where neither horse nor tractor
could penetrate.
"In their natural state the Eski
mos are a splendid race." Scotty
said, "simple, hospitable, kind and
hontest. They will share their last
fish with a hungry traveler but
they expect to be treated with sim
ilar generosity when they are in
need. They always remember a good
deed, nor do they ever forget or
fcrglve a bad one. If they are cheat
ed by a white man, they will not
rest until they have Inflicted re
venge. And they usually get their
revenge, even after the lapse of
many years.
.loins Gold Rush
Scotty Allan came to this country
from Scotland In 1887 when , he
brought a boatload of horses to the
Dakota territory. In the same year
he went to the Arctic to trap fur
bearing animals for the Hudson Bay
company and thus obtained his first
experience in the far north.
Ten years later the famous gold
strike took him to the, Yukon where
he soon gave up mining to take up
teaming aa the Income from trans
porting provisions was "more certain
than panning for the yellow metal."
Scotty left yesterday afternoon in
his big red car for Eugene where
he was to continue his lectures.
G.O.P. Wins Senate

ultimate effect will be to make the
commission excessively cautious ol
any favoritism for Elliott's stations,
and perhaps excessively favorable
to his direct competitors. .
The secret worry of the new deal
ers right now is not politics, but
prices.
Their economists have worked up
some private reports Indicating that
prices may be expected to advance
strongly in the near future; tffie
cost of living may be Increased out
of proportion to the current national
Income. That would mean plenty of
trouble, because wage Increases al
ways lRg behind price increases to &
point ' where real hardships would
fall on the bulk of the voters in
the great middle classes.
The most conservative Inner esti
mate Is that the price level, now
around 81. will increase to 86 or BU
as a general average for next year.
The outside guess Is 100 (the 1926
level).
No one here has any direct in
formation regarding Treasury Sec
retary Morgenthau's secret confer
ences with the French finance min
ister and the head of the Bank ol
France. But every treasury insider
will bet 100 to one he is trying to
find some way .to stop the importa
tions of gold, which are doing as
much to bring on a price "inflation
as anything else. He is supposed to
have cabled the department here for
latest data on that subject before
going to Paris.
Stabilization is generally consid
ered here to be out of the question.
What set the new dealers off ftn
their latest inflation price fretting
is a report that the banking Indus
try has been planning a general
national increase In bread prices,

The cost of wheat and shortening
is said to be- responsible.
An Inside Inquiry Into that price
situation already has been started
quietly by the AAA to see how
much of an Increase Is Justified, U
any. '
An ambitious young Democrat
here figured out what he thought
was a great Idea. Ha would write
to all Democratic state chairmen
soliciting their ' opinion as to
whether Mr. Roosevelt would win
their state delegations to the next
national convention. Naturally he
thought all would reply with glow
ing assurances. These could be pub
lished. It would make a good pub
licity stunt.
The first ten or twelve replies he
received were perfect for his pur
pose. But the last half dozen or
so have been entirely unsuitable.
The state chairmen grumbled about
spats in their local organizations.
Some complained about lack of co
operation from Washington. One
pessimistic chairman In a north
central state wrote that his state
political lines were cut up so badly
that he did not know what kind
of delegation would be elected in
the primary.
They ruined the symposium. It
will not be published.
One of the. best new deal publicity
bureaus has the following motto
typewritten on the wall as a per
petual reminder to the staff: "The
kind of writing that takes cogniz
ance of the fact that people have
more emotion than logic, more sim
pllclty thair subtlety, moro Inertia
than intellect. Is the kind at writ
ing that Is understood," .
