None Uf“ the activities of that bureau are more appreciated, | and none have greater promise of benefits to ahc} Territory than it has. With some few exceptions, | most of the trails constructed in Tongass National Forest are designed to serve prospectors. Owing to the nature of the terrain in this part of the 'rer-“ ritory, rugged mounta heavy undergrowth, swift streams, etc. it is practically impossible for a pru-‘ perly equipped prospecting party to get back into| the mineralized zones without fairly good trails| for travel and over which supplies can be trans-| ported. Owing to their absence in certain regions, known mineralized areas have gone unexplored for, many years. | The necessity for such trails has long been, recognized by the Forest Service. Extensive surveys have been made in the past and several projects adopted for construction as funds become available. Two of the three trails to be built this year fall| within that classification, one connecting Tenakee Inlet with Idaho Inlet and the other throwing open the Banded Mountain district in the Portland Canal | section. This is the kind of governmental activity that Alaska needs badly and it is in line with the general policy of the Forest Service to make avail-! able for development the raw resources which it administers as a part of the National Forest domain. ALASKA SALMON IS PELLAGRA PREVENTIVE. Alaska canned salmon, particularly the Alaska chums, contain the pellagra preventive factor, it| has been revealed by studies of pellagra preventive properties of various food substances by the United | States Public Health Service. By reason of its potency in preventing pellagra and its availability in the preserved state, salmon may be considered a fair substitute for meat in the area of pellagra endemicity where meat is not readily available, the Health Service pointed out. Pellagra is a disease scattered widely over the globe, occurring in Italy, France, Rumania, on the Island of Corfu, India, in the Barbadoes, upper and’ lower Egypt, and in several sections of the United | States. Its cause and methods of prevention by dietary methods have been the subject of scientific investigations for the past two decades. HOME OWNERS LARGEST PROPERTY HOLDERS. Home owners are the largest single class of property holders. Likewise they constitute the an- chor of social democracy, says the research bureau of an eastern company. Vast numbers of the 120,000,000 Americans are now for the first time able to purchase homes. They have prepared the way through saving de- posits, insurance loans and installment payment pur- chases of securities, it is declared. Today there are fifty-five million savings deposit- ors and over sixty million holders of life insurance. Total savings, the bureau says, have increased from seven to twenty-eight billion since 1913. In this period bank loans and. private deposits have in- creased from thirty-one to ninety-three billion dol- lars. Life insurance has risen from thirteen to one hundred billion. “These figures aid in visualizing the factors be- hind the home owning tendency,” it is declared. A slump in residential building last year to $2,- 088,142,975 from $3,039,265966 the previous year ac- counted for a major part of the total building de- crease, the bureau points out. Residential building for the first three months of this year totals $264,746,503, showing a good increase in March. PRESENT PROPOSED TREATY EIGHTH S NCE WORLD WAR. The naval limitations treaty evolved by the London Parley and recently submitted is the eighth important convention drawn up since the World ‘War which have to do with reducing the chances of war and cutting down excessive armament costs. All of them have been signed by the more important world powers. In 1919, the treaties of Versailles, St. Germain, Neuilly and the Trianon, known as the “peace treaties” were signed. These were followed by four others: Washington Naval Treaty, signed by the United States, Great Britain, France, Italy and Japan, an agreement on limitation of naval arma- ments, dealing principally with battleships, in 1922, Treaty of Locarno, signed by Great Britain, Ger- many, France, Italy and Belgium; essentially a treaty of European security, in 1925 Kellogg-Briand Treaty, entitled the Pact of Paris; a general treaty for renunciation of war, open to the world, in 1927. The London Naval Treaty, providing for limita- | future, | J More Laws for Prohibition. | with additional agreements on certain naval questions ‘;‘rr‘p'ul Yy France and Italy, is the latest. | All of them represent an honest desire of the people of the greater nations to minimize possible ¢ ers of armed conflicts in the future. Each of ts represents connected steps in the world ment for peace. Not any single one of them has gone as far as had bzen hoped for when the were called. The latest falls far short of high aims of its proponents, but unquestion- achieves some things of noteworthy value are worth all of the costs and labor expended arriving at the finished agreement. It is disappointing that all of the aims expressed not be realized. But it is encouraging that| nation was willing to concede something of its| nal claims in order that another step could | be taken away from war and toward peace. It demonstrates that the will for peace is still pre- valent. - Undoubtedly the history of the past decade ! points the way for other diplomatic sessions be- tween the major powers in the next years to come | when other parleys will meet and solve problems | that proved too difficult for predecessors be- | twen 1919 and 1930.

The last re- | port of the Attorney General contains a survey of the Federal courts made by men whose judgment ! in the matter should be expert, namely, the senior circuit judges. These judges reported at their last conference that in at least half of the ten circuits | no congestion existed in the courts. In the other | circuits some congestion existed, but chiefly in! certain specified districts, such as the southern and | eastern districts of New York, rather than through-! out these circuits as a whole. Speaking, for ex-. ample, of conditions in the northern and western | districts of New York, the circuit judges said in| their report: “There is no complaint of delay in! the disposition of business in those districts.” | It would seem important, therefore, to dis- | tinguish between different circuits and different districts in speaking of congestion. It would aIsa; seem important to make the first move in the di-| [ rection of relief consist of the provision of addi-, tional judges where they are needed. It is true! that even with the addition of more judges the! dockets of the courts in Prohibition cases would' be kept clear largely through the device which ! Mr. Hoover describes as “the so-called bargain day.”| But the substitute for bargain days thought up by | Mr. Hoover's Commission on Law Enforcement has| won small support in Congress. Mr. Hoover himself | fails to indorse it in his latest message. “Aleutian” Sets New Standard of Luxury in Travel to Alaska. (Seattle Business Chronicle. | If the valiant men later to be known as “sour- dough,” who 33 years ago hurriedly outfitted at Seattle to brave the unknown in the mad gold rush to the Klondike, where this spring to return ¥o ' Alaska aboard the palatial new steamship Aleu- tian leaving Seattle May 3 on her maiden voyage, they would then have participated in writing the epilogue as well as the opening chapter of one of America’s most stirring epics of migration. For wild Alaska, “Seward’s Folly,” has long since be- come ‘“civilized"—permanent population, stabilized ! commmece and industry—now as safe and easy to reach from Seattle as it is to go by steamer to San Francisco or by rail to Chicago. Impelled by mass imagination aflame in the quest for gold, that epochal surge of humanity—from the security and conveniences of home to the froz- en and barren wastes lying away up under the Arctic Circle—is even more spectacular in its daring of hardship and peril than the feats of the audacious Argonauts of '49 sailing around the Horn, e e e GARBAGE || HAULED AND LOT CLEANING E.
