Yet when it made up its program, it did so without consulting the desires of Alaskans as to what phases of it could best be eliminated to meet the decreased funds. And when Alaskans appealed to it not to suspend the work of Mr. Stewart's office, they were curtly refused. It was after this stage had been reached that torrid zone. days. business cycle. the Territorial Chamber appealed to the Bureau i Kot of tha' 1020’ of Mines. It is greatly to its credit that it ‘“‘“iZ“éfifl““;rZfific lh’;‘“;:mfi‘)c CO‘;SL*"‘;" % S-that i not reject it absolutely. Its own appropriations poie H | had been reduced sharply. Despite that, it im- mediately asked for some concrete plan of co- operation and within a few days a workable agree- ment had been made. This is the kind of action that Alaska appreciates. The part played by the Territorial Chamber, which was supported by other Chambers individually, was of real and lasting value. It is another justification of the existence of that body, and one that goes far toward demon- strating the claims of its supporters that it is worth a great deal more in actual returns than its cost of upkeep.

Hence| their opposition to almost any pro- | posal which seeks to raise world | prices by means which are not compatible with the most perfect and the most soothing orthodoxy of the gold standard. The phobia of inflation among the Continent- al peoples, the latent panic ex- pressing itself in hoarding and in flight, the political and social ne- cessity of defending the gold standard: these are the considera- tions which compel the French and their financial allies not only to| oppose projects which aim to raise | world prices but to demand agree- | ments which their people will in- terpret as opposing any inflation tendency. In this conflict most of the coun-[ tries which product raw materials and most of the countries outside of Europe which have large inter- nal or external debts are aligned against the defenders of the gold standard. The British position is somewhere in the middle, becausc Britain itself is divided on the is- sue. The Bank of England and the City, that is to say, the finan- cial and creditor interests, lean| strongly to the gold standard cult decisions to make. But when you undertake to manage curren- cy you have to have the courage to manage it by making decisions of this sort. The alternative is to let matters drift, and wait to see what speculation will do in the next few weeks. There are argu- ments for this course. There are men who believe that speculation will push enough countries off the gold standard to precipitate a world-wide boom in commodities, and that this boom, though it will produce very serious problems in- deed, is the natural way by which the world that is too divided to control economic events will emerge from the great deflation of the past four years. ‘We are in the region of guesses, for no man knows enough to fore- see the future with certainty. In these matters our guesses are like- ly to be determined by ouy preju- dices. My own prejudice would lead to an attempt to control events by a definite devaluation in Britain and in America, accompan- ied by a provisional stabilization. There are others who will prefer to trust events rather than human Judgment. They will elect to let matters drift and allow speculation to settle the issue. SETTING A NEW ALASKA RECORD.
