The common sense and thorough knowledge back of every statement that is made public by Secretary , Roper, of the Department of Commerce, gives it weight throughout che country. Because so many Alaskans met Secretary Roper when he visited the Territory last summer, they are interested i what he has to say, whether it is an interview on national recovery in general or a radio talk about Alaska. Now, Secretary Roper sees a gradual improve- ment in trade and industry and believes that most people feel it would be better for business to move ahead that way “than for it to take a sudden spurt which might lead to a reverse.” Considering the spurts and reverses that people have witnessed in the past, his view is well founded.
