| anit Ke ASHINGTON.—What'sithe mat- ter with Alaska? “Inadequate and costly transportation,” says Dan A. Sutherland, the. Alaska dele- gate in congress, y “oo much red tape,” says the In- terior department, which would take over the administrative functions ‘of + al, other -departments pertaining. to Alaska. “Absentee. government -landlordism, divided departmenta? control, and hampered restrictions of development of natural resources,” says Represent: tive Curry, chairman of’ the tiouse cor mittee on territories, who is pressing for legislation to place all Alaska re- sources at the disposition of a resident development board. & For Federal Control of OINCIDENTLY with the failure to ; , reach an agreement for a‘‘miners’ wage scale to supplant the na- tional ‘agreement, which expires next March, two far-reaching .bills con- cerning the coal industry were intro- duced. in the senate by Senator Ken- yon of Iowa, chairman of the commit- tee on education and labor, which has been investigating conditions in West Virginia. The failure was announced after a four-hour discussion at the White House, at. which-were present the President, Secretaries Hoover and Davis and President, Lewis.and other officials: of the ‘United Mine Workers of America, One of the Kenyon measures im- poses heavy penalties for profiteering in coal, The other is a revision of the original Calder bill, giving broad powers to the President, the téderal rade commission, the geological sur- vey and the interstate commerce com- mission, The Calder bill,as revised by Mr. Kenyon, provides that whenever the federal trade commission. shall deter- mine that. an emergency exists “which seems likely to produce a shortage or bring about unusual, unwarranted or unreasonable coal prices and be detri- mental to the public health,” the Pres ident shall be empowered to fix maxi- mum coal prices and dealers’ commis- sions and margins. . Plans of National LANS for organization of the Na- tional Guard as a “thoroughly consolidated and well-developed component” of the United States army have been announced by the War de> partments The ultimate peace strength in 1924 of the National Guard, accord. ing to the plan, will be 450,000 men, organized into 18 infantry divisions, distributed among the states. The complete designation of the National Guard infantry divisions will be as follows: Division, State— 26—Massachusetts, 27—New York. 28—Pennsylvania, / 29—Maryland, District’ of Columbia, Virginia. 30—Georgia, Tennessee, South Caro- lina, North Carolina. 82—Michigan, Wisconsin, SIDELIGHTS Alaska’s All ‘Right President, Harding and his. cabinet have devoted several sessions to’ dis- eussion ofthe. Alaska problem.. The house committee: has held extensive hearings on.the Curry bill. Secretary of Agriculture Wallace dispatched E, A. Sherman, associate forester, to Alaska, early last summer to {hvestigate the alleged retrogression of the territory. Mr, Sherman has just. returned and sibmitted an elab- orate report, declaring, that Alaska is suffering from nothing more than its share.of the world-wide hard times. All the industries of the territory, he reports, are doing as well as if not better than the same industries else- where. * “Th the face of such a showing,” thé Sherman report concludes, ‘one mar- vels more and more at the origin of this report that Alaska. is on the down- ward grade. I would like to know the trae inwardness: of that. idea. The growth of. our. northland’ iy) now a steady growth, in wilich the resident Alaskan, and not the promoter or underwriter, 1s Being, the chief bene- ficlary. That seems to me to be most desirable.” Coal Mining The President also {!s authorized under such cireumstances to deal in coal and to control its production and distribution. ‘The ‘President may go so far as to take over the operation of coal mines. AS j The companion bill provides a: pen- alty of not legs than $100 nor more than $10,000 for the first offense of a coal operator or dealer convicted of violation of the law, and for each suc- ceeding offense a ‘ine of not less than $1,000 and imprisonment for not less than 90 days nor more than five years. In defining what shall be considered profiteering, ‘the bill specifies margins of profit for coal operators and dealers tanging from 10 to 40 cents per ton, according to the amount’ of business done. Margins are provided, not only, for individual .sales, but also in the case of aggregate sales covering a year’s period. , _ Guard Organization 33—Illinois. : * 84—Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota. 85—Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, 36—Texas, 87—Ohto. a 38—Indiana, West Viginia, Ken- tucky. 39—Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Louisigna. : 40—Callfornia, Utah, Nevada. 41—Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Ore- gon, Washington. 43—Maine,' New Hampshire, mont, Connecticut, Rhode Isiand. 44—New York, New Jersey, MPela- ware, i 45—Calorado, Oklahoma, New Mex- ico, Arizona.

BY BLOSSER mn FEDERAL COMMISSION URGED , Highway Question Concerns Agricul. ture, Commerce, Military and Social Needs. ' #National defelopment and the need for economy demand the formation of a highway policy under a federal com- mission,” said George M. Graham, member of the highways committee, National Automobile Chamber of Com- merce, speaking before the senate— committee on post offices and post roads, | “The economic barrie? now con-| fronting us-is the lack of adequate) highway: There is urgent need to} build these highways as quickly. as} possible, and with the maximum | economy. | “Highways should be planned with consideration of their relationship to} railway and waterway communication. | ‘The highway question concerns agftl-| culture, commerce, the military and] the social needs of the nation. ‘The| roads program ,is national in scope} and is related to all departments of} the government. | “Highway policy, therefore,” Gra-| ham continued, “should be unified un- der a federal highway commission di- responsible to the chief exeecu- s now the policy in state road tration. ; “Economy Will be served by such & measure as roads will’be with-regard to all the needs of the nation. It will be possible to pay higher salaries than can now be done under the bureau stem. Millions of dollars are to be expended on roads, and it is the high- est’ economy: to secure the able: brains.jn the country for the adminis- tration of these funds. hi! ction of roads of primary. in- terstate importance and concentration of federal funds in conjunetion with state funds’ on these roads is the first step needed, States should be required to meet the federal aid as states rath- er than passing their respongibilities along to counties as many states do now. In this way, it will be possible to have state poli¢ correlated with the national. program. The counties will benefit from the general inter- state highway. system, and the funds which the countiés formerly used in conjunction with federal aid can be devoted to more specifically local pur- poses, “Maintenance should be provided for by the states in all cases,” Graham emphasized, “in order that as the pub- ie highways are developed: they may) be depended upon as permanent ave- nues of communication, in order that the original public investment be pro- tected. “States which have been sufficiently pro; sive to buidd their share of federal ald are now in a position to develop secondary systems, and are therefore that much ahead in economic development, “A wise highway policy will con- struct and maintain roads through gov- ernment forest reservations from fed- eral funds, without calling upon the treasuries in the states wherein these are Tocated.. Wherever a state con- tains large areas of federal lands due modification should ‘be made of the present 50-50 expenditure of federal” and state fund: MAX STORE BURNS Max, N, D., Jan 26—The Buttinskv 1 and Gloes geferal store here burned to the ground, with an estimated loss The fire was discovered about 4 a. m., but be- fore the volunteer fire department ar- rived the fire had made such head- way that it was impossible to stop. it, and within an hour'the building, with its entire stock of merchandise was burned. i Before. 1878 there were no stock ex- changes in Japan.
