George A. Parks to the Legislature Wednes- day afternoon, probably no one will disagree with the terse description given it by Senator Dimond :n his motion, which the Legislature passed unani- | mously, for a vote of thanks. The Third Division Senator termed it, “thoughtful, well considered, analytical and illuminative.” These adjectives were properly applied. % The Governor delved deeply into the operations of the Territorial Government in his discourse, demonstrating a measure of thoughtfulness in his consideration of the several problems which was PARKS'S MESSAGE. unusual. The moderate phrases in which he de- pic'~d conditions, recounted the manner in which the ns of government were carried on during the past biennium, and voiced his ecommendations werz proof of the deep study he had given the entire subject matter. He did not limit himself to word pictures of costs, revenues and appropria- tions, and the tendency toward expanded disburse- ments, but supported his assertions with :eliable statistics. He analyzed cause and portrayed rffect with a directness that was convincing. Even to those familiar not alone in a general way but in detail with local governmental affairs, his exposition was enlightening. The whole burden of the message was vhat ncon- omy in government is at present a paramount neces- sity. Alaska, he assured his hearers, must be oro- vided with adequate funds to provide fully for the essentials required to sustain the governmental struc- ture, but the treasury is not in position now io sustain the burden of several activities which the Governor properly classified as non-essentials. If we were asked to point to the most important recommendation of the message, the selection would fall on his closing appeal to the Legislature for a “real budget law.” Without a balanced budget there can be no real economy in government. And lack- ing a genuine budget law, made operative through a Budget Bureau armed with every rightful author- ity, there can be no balanced budget. The Governor was wholly justified in declaring the present Alaska budget to be one in name only. As he forcefully asserted, it is merely an invitation to the several administrative offices to submit requests for all the money they could possibly use in the hope that they might be lucky enough to get it. Any school child knows there is no element of a real budget system in such procedure. Yet every two years requests for appropriations for large sums are submitted to the Legislature which has but 60 days in which to io all its work. PerPound ..... ..... CARROTS, bunch .....

FLIER WILL TOUR SWEDEN TOCKHOLM, Sweden, March 6. —A flying tour through Sweden, to take nearly one year, has just been started in a Swedish-made plane by Captain Ahrenberg, fa- mous civilian pilot. The tour is under the auspices of the Swedish Aerotransport Com- pany, headed by Captain Carl Florman. Nearly every city and town in Sweden will be visited by Captain Ahrenberg, who will take up pas- sengers for brief flights at aii stcp- ping points, in a campaien to in- crease popular interest in commer- | cial aviation. | —————— GAPITOL WORK “When I saw how Sargon put my friend, Harold Levick, back on his feet I took the treatment and the same wonderful results got FRANK A.

Its latest act is to increase the duty on American auto- mobiles by an administrative order fixing the rate Heretofore which varied in the case of different cars from 65| to 75 per cent of the listed price. Under the new method of valuation for customs purposes the duty | has been increased in some instances as much as 23 per cent. Canada began to plan higher tariff barriers against the United States as soon as the Hawley- Bmoot tariff bill began to take shape in Congress. Last May the King ministry brought forward a bill of our export trade. While this measure was pend-| ing there was a change of government, but the | Bennett ministry, which came into office in August, put into effect in the following month a new scale of tariff duties, with many of the rates exactly| duplicating those of the new American tariff. The Hawley-Smoot tariff falls with special force on Canadian products, and Canada has sought to retaliate in kind. The spectacle of two countries, each the other’s best customer, involved in a trade war is not pleasing. Each may hurt the trade of the other, .but in doing so it will also hurt its own. The raising of barriers to commercial inter- course between the two nieghbors can only create more idle farms, factories and workers. It is an antiquated, but still popular, method of settling a modern problem.
