B, HU Washington, June 6—“What are the plans, expectations and hopes of the administration with respect to Ala ka?” is the question J, put to Secretary of the Interior Fall. “The first thing I’d like ‘to do,” lic sald, “would be to go up there with shotgun and chase out a bunch of poli-| ticians.’ j “But the big quegtions are outside and above politics. They. have to do with policies that will make) Alaska more accessible, that will open the way to the development of resources now locked up and that will invite settlement. “Between 1910 and 1920 the popula- tion of the territory decreased 15 cent. The population today is only 55,000 against 65,000 in 1910, and the decline has’ been in the pioneering white settlers rding’s Policy. Unliéking. Alaska is recognized’ as! one of the major numbers on Pres-| ident Harding’s program. The whole; future of that territory, therefore, is| most likely to be shaped by steps tak-| en within the next four years. Harding hopes to pay a personal | visit to Alaska, and has been plan-! ning, tentatively, to make the trip! this year if Congress adjourns in time: For the president’s guidance the De- tary Fall, has been collecting a mass of information covering every angle of Alaskan affairs. “Difficulties of transportation form) one of..the biggest barriers against! Alaskan-development,’ Fall said. “We are now dependent wholly on_ boats operating out of Seattle. ‘The ‘result Alaska. absolutely cut off. “Inside Alaska, transportation con-| ditions are no better. We are build- ing a railroad up there, but it begins nowhere and ends nowhere. In my judgment Alaska’ should be connected with the United States by an all-rail, route through Canada. | “One of the big possibilities for, Alaska is the development of a pa- per industyy. Properly safeguarded, Alaska could supply us indefiniteiy with an amount of paper equal to that which we now import from Canada. | But there again the transportation barrier controls. | “Alaska’s coal’ fidlds ‘are another! sourceof great possible wealth.” Wel are’ now developing mines there for the praduction of coal ‘for the Pacific fleet. Greatest Barrier. “But perhaps the greatest barrier to getting anywhere with Rtuska is the fact that at present half a dozen dif- ferent government departments and bureaus have charge of various func- tions there and there: is no co-ordina- tion and co-operation in plans for de- velopment. “Ag secretary of irfterior I build- ing a railroad tHere. « But, I cannot build a highway to connect with that road or even a trail over which to bring up_supplies. Neither can I build a telephone or telegraph line to help communications. © Those funcfions lic solely in the War Department. “The Interior Department patents grants of land, whereupon its control if for forest or grazing purposes moves at once to the Department of Agriculture. “Before Alaska’s future can be plan- ned for and effective steps taken to tap her rich resources. and open them to the people, there must be some DYE ONLY WITH “DIAMOND DYES” Unlega ou ask for “Diamond Dyes” eta poor dye that streaks, spots, ‘Tedes anil gives that dyed look, Every package“of Diamond Dyes con- tains simple directions for home dye- ing or tinting any new, rich, fadeless color into garments or draperies of any material.

St. James, Mo., June 6.—A little boy who wouldn’t behave was the cause of St. James electing the first woman mayor of Missouri. Mrs. Mayme Ousley was cleaning house last September.~.Two. women were helping her and the paper hang- er was there.” “Did you hear that little Jimmie Blank.-is ‘in jail at Rolla, and they’re going to send him to’the reform school?” one of the women asked. Jimmie was a boy Mrs. Ousley had eral times after he had been’ caught had released from the town jail sev; Putting ‘tick-tacks on windows and stealing ice cream at Sunday school Picnics, Mrs. Ousley dropped her mop and called up the marshal, What's Jimi- mie in jai! for?” she asked. “We're tired of having bad boys ‘in town,” the marshal answered. ° He also told Mrs. Ousley that, the boy hadn’t had a hearing but was goins to the reform school—that was decid- ed! She called up the Prosecuting at- torney ‘.at Ria and told him she —— central authority in control. Person- ally, I believe that should be vested directly in the president.” FROM OUR YORK CORRESPONDENT By Newspaper Enterprise. York, S. C., June .6.—No lawyer should undertake to address a jury after he reaches 65 years of age, says Thomas F. McDow, former special judge and one of the niost successful criminal tawyers in South Carolina. * McDow is Now 57 years of age and would be up there on the first train. “Paper the house upside down if you want to; I’m going to get Jimmie,” she called as she hurried away. There was somé argument, but Mrs. Ousley returned to St. James with the boy. A crowd met her at the station. “Well, Granny, how'd you get the| | boy?” they asked. “I went after him. You can get any- thing you go after,” she replied, Right there atid then I decided ‘I ‘| was going to be mayor,” Mrs. Ousley says. \“I-coUldn’t understand why they ‘were ‘ shipping boys off to reform school without trying to reform\them at home. The only way I knew of finding out, the things I Wanted” to know was to’ become mayor.” She was elected by eight votes. She’s determined to put through many “municipal housekeeping reforms.” The “lady mayor” is 84 but she) looks and dresses like’a debutante. She has shining golden hair and a peach blossom complexion.
