THE NEW DEAL, POLITICALLY To the Editor of the Nome Dear Sir: Now that the mental eyes of our citizens are focused on the forthcoming elecViflns.

it might not be amiss to br ng to the attention of the people of the Second Division; the significance of vthe comparatively recently coined phrase, New Little majority of those who cast their votes for Franklyn Roosevelt at the last elect'on the amazing spectacle they would be a witness to in the year of 1933. Most of the voters and ourselves of the Territory who have no presidential vote, barrassed on all sides by the incessant, unceasing cry of the heads of the government for money, more money in the form of taxes Wth which to maintain and carry on the costliest and most extravagant government in the history of the world; by the gradually acquired knowledge that government itself had been surruptitiously taken from the hands of the people where it constitut onally belonged and handed over -to the crooked politician and the money changers, by the inordinate greed, averice and lust for power on the part or those in high places, and their satellites. These were hut a few the panfully acquired facts that caused a vast portion of our people to go lo the polls, gladly casting their vote for a man who had gone amongst them preaching the doctrine of a New Deal. While at first the general conception of this doctrine' ln government was somewhat nebulous, it has gradually assumed 'form and substance. We seen the accompl nhof something heretofore re'rdrd as impossible, the re-in'(aliment of political lines which h'tve endured with but minor varj ons since the Civil We seen the induction of a vast of insurgent Republicans the party of the New Deal have read in current outside I papers that the great common wealth of Massachusetss, normally Republican, is debating whether to run a cand date for the United States Senate or to allow Democratic Senator Walsh to have his re-election by default.

We have seen a Democratic president seldom mentioning -the party whose candidate he was. We have witnessed the dismissal from h'gh office in the councils of the Democratic Party, of those who have sought to capitalize theif3 positions and prestige party leaders. We have read of the assistance openly rendered by the chairman of the National Democratic Committee to Republican Senator Hiram Johnson of California in his recent re-election into the cabinet of the Democratic President of the United States, of three Republicans. What, my friends, do -these things portend? What does it mean to you? Does it not mean a new deal in fact, both in politics and goveriiuif nt? Does it not mean that due to the wellordered mind, the straight-thinking, the high ideal and courageous soul of the head of the New" Deal party, government Is once again restored to the people where it rightfully belongs? Does it not mean that the political forces that insidiously created and abetted the system, by which millions of our fellow citizens were tossed about on the chess-board of life, pawns In a where all the high cards were held by the political demagogues and their overlords, the so called monied Interests, are re legated to the dim' dark, musty pages of the middle ages, where they rightfully belong? We are wltness'ng, you and the rise of the common man, codes security, universal sufferage, and true democracy. Howard Lyng Golovin (Special Nugget Correspondence) March 6, 1934 Not long ago a house warming was held at the new home of John Ost.

SAFER THAN A MOTOR CAR In the first six months of 1933 according to figures of the Depart mont vf Commerce, there was one passunger fatality for each £8,831, 196 passenger-miles flown by the regular air transport lines. In the same per od, according to statistics obtained from the American Automobile Association, ma'of cars in the state of Missouri drove only 15.581,475 passenger miles for each passenger fatuity. These figures indicate that flying on the rgular air lines is twice as safe as riding in a passenger car. Even if we assume Missouri to be a hazardou state for the motor car, and even if we take the recent crash of a transport plane in the west into account, he aifl'iie operators have reason to be proud of their safety record.
