Comprehensive in scope, analytical in text, writ- ten from a perspective cognizant with the Territory as a whole and the diverse problems contronting it, the message of Governor John W. Troy, to the Twelfth Legislative Session, which was printed in full in yesterday's Empire, is a document which should prove of much value to the session, and afford intelligent factual information to the resi- dents of the Territory. Because of the unusual conditions that have prevailed during the past two years, and the new agencies created to meet these conditions, a review of the history making events that have transpired in the Territory during this period as well as recom- mendations for the future were included in the Governor’s report. With most of the States laboring under a terrific burden of debt it is most encouraging to note the admirable condition of the Territorial Treasury and the fact that the income from the past biennium exceeded by $557,030.76 the income of the previous blennium, and that a surplus of $685000 in cash and bonds was in the Treasury December 31, 1934. At the same time the message points out a possible loss in revenue of between $340,000 and $400,000 in the next biennium, through the indicated closing of fishing in Bristol Bay. Also that from the trend of the National Administration policy it is certain that the Territory will necessarily bear more of relief expenditures than it has in the past, and through these factors new sources of tax revenue, from mines and other possible sources, may be necessary. A timely warning was given not to overtax industries already doing business in Alaska and not to discourage new industries which will offer future sources of revenue and development from coming into the Territory, along with a plea for fairness to labor. Conforming with Alaska's desire for home rule the Governor advocates the gradual taking over of the fisheries through Federal legislation giving the Territorial Legislature authority to legislate co- equally with Congress. Through this procedure the ‘Territory could proceed carefully and not jeopardize the welfare of the thousands who are employed in Alaska’s largest industry, nor the source from which more than eighty per cent of the Territorial taxes are derived. Advising careful study of the liquor question, in his message, the Governor believes that neither MARKET Fancy Carrots 6 lbs., 25¢ Dry Onions 6 lbs., 25¢ Arizona Grapefruit EXTRA LARGE 2 for15¢ PHONE 342 gIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiI“IIIIIil“lIIilflIIIlIIIlIIIIIIIlifllllilllllllllIIIIIQ_ £ WE DON'T SELL CHEAP MERCHANDISE WE SELL GOOD MERCHANDISE CHEAP! SEWARD STREET |and in conclusion admirably advises that “what-| | ever we do let no one of us forget that Alaska is | one Territory and its people one people. Let us not permit sectional ambition or rivalry to divide us |and let us eliminate quarreling and bickering and strife.” | Throughout, this is the keynote of the message |and for the good of every Alaskan it is hoped it| | will be adhered to. [ Cooke on the Mississippi. | (New York Times.) Morris Llewellyn Cooke was a reporter once, | years ago. After that he was an apprentice in ’Cra.mp's shipyards and later a journeyman machin- ist. When he became a consulting engineer he | |spent much of his spare time initiating his fellow- |engineers into the mysteries of the Taylor system of scientific management, then in its heyday. Of| |late years he has been something of a spur in the | flank of the Power Trust, being regarded by the | | conservatives as a radical, and by the radicals as a | | conservative. He directed the Grant Power Survey of 1923 in Pennsylvania. He is an enthusiast for rural electrification and promotional rates in the domestic field. Governor Franklin Roosevelt thought so much of his abilities that he appointed him, al- though a resident of a sister Commonwealth, a charter member of the St. Lawrence Power Author- im'; President Franklin Roosevelt made him Chair- |man of the Mississippi Valley Committee of the | PWA. Such is the background of the man who, with the aid of a number of economists, college pro- fessors and other engineers, has brought in the report on the development of that valley which made such a display in recent newspapers. It must have been just the kind of labor that would appeal to Mr. Cooke, combining specifications for dams | and dynamos with something in the way of a blue- | print of future civilization in the great heart of the | American continent. “A drainage basin, big or little, | {is a region through which water moves,” he de- | clares in his introduction. It would be easy enough |to scoff at a proposition so self-evident, did not the mere flow of water half-way across he continent | conjure up the very vision which Mr. Cooke tries |to capture for us of power and navigation, of| | water supply and sanitation, of forestry, irrigation | and conservation, of electric lights in remote farm- | houses and turning wheels of industry, all under | effective control. To what extent they can be put under such | control, either in planning or administration, one‘ | hesitates to predict, even in these days of limitless aspiration. Not having a Pharaoh in this land, or | even a Thames Conservancy Board, and only the rudiments of any regional organization, whatever |development proves feasible along the broad lines |indicated in theé report must be left to the joint | |effort of the States and the Federal Govrnment. | |Mr. Cooke is not afraid to have the latter assume | | ‘Lhe responsibilities to which it is accustomed, and“ even to add those initiatives which are now so {much the vogue in the field of electric power; he | | goes so far to hold that Government control or; | transmission lines is fundamental. But he does not | relish having the basin States taught to regard | Uncle Sam as a universal Santa Claus, and he makes | the arresting suggestion that local communities share | |with the Federal Government the cost of enter- | prises from which they expect to derive direct | ‘benem. President Roosevelt appears to approve this idea. The local politicians have yet to be lhes.rd from. | ! The 235-page report contains a mass of the |most alluring pictorial statistics unusual in a | Government document but very helpful to the lay | reader. SATURDAY SPECIALS!

Cupid Uses Fir Branch in One Region of Spain ZARAGOZA, Spain, Jan. Christmas trees have a special sig- nificance in Aragon—the sharp fir needles are Cupid darts which wing shy maidens. Wooing swains visit the homes of adored ones on Christmas eve, car- rying a guitar and a small fir branch laden with gifts. The maiden is summoned to the window by her admirer's serenade. When he finishes his song he lays the branch on the window sill and if she opens the window and ac- cepts the bough their troth is plighted.
