Over Alberta keyed up about the reported prospect of a highway from Edmonton through Alaska to Siberia, the con- nection across the Bering Sea to be made via a tun- nel. The announcement comes from W. A. Fallow, Alberta minister of public works, who that financial interests from New York and have advised him they are prepared to 000,000 on project which would thwest Yukon, Alaska at Edmonton they arc getting reports Los Angeles spend $500,- eonnect the and such a Territories finally 1 r. Fallow is quoted as “I am satistied at the highway will even- obstacles to be saying they in earnest and t tually There many come and the scheme is still in the formulative stage.”, He points out that the of nortt the scheme attractive It sounds view of modern days, it is not at all impossible, like to offer one suggestion. If there really are some individuals in New York and Los Angeles, or anywhere else for that matter who have $500,000,000 for highway construction, about the International Highway, which already approval of two governments but no funds? There is a road which would accomplish the very thing the Edmonton people apparently want. It is coming from the States to Alaska, through the min- erally rich country of British Columbia. All Alberta and the other provinces of Canada have to do hook on anywhere they desire. From Fairbanks can be carried across Alaska and under the Sea via tunnel to Siberia, if that's what the promoters want. All the preliminary work has been the International Highway. That is, the route is laid out, and both our government and Canada are favorable to the plan. The only thing holding it up is adequate financing, such, we might suggest, $500,000,000 from the pockets of New York and Los Angeles millionaires. If Mr. Fallow wants to'do his ewn country and Alaska a real he should direct those promoters to the International Highway and hold himself a few million in reserve for direct hookup route with Edmonton. are come. are over- vast mineral and oil wealth the are among the inducements that make like considerable of an idea, and, in the progress made in construction in these But we would how has is it done on as service a WARN JOB HUNTERS COMING NORTH M. J. Walsh of Nome, here to attend the annual meeting of the Territorial Board of Education, told the Chamber of Commerce yesterday that mining operations are expanding up in the Second Division But in doing so he stressed again the fact that there are plenty of men in Nome and in that district to do all the work this season, and advised against work- men spending their money in going to Nome in search for work. The point that Mr. Walsh makes holds for all Alaska and cannot be emphasized too many times. There are sufficient Alaska workmen to do all the Alaska labor during this season. In fact, there are more than enough. Those writing to friends and relatives Outside would be doing the Territory a real service by stressing that fact. They would be pro- tecting the interests of those already in Alaska and QUEEN MARY ON to cut classes and go canoeing on the Bering ¢ guarding against hardship and heart-break for the unfortunate persons who might come north without resources looking and chances are, not finding it for employm ” | Yesterday relief work ended throughout the Ter- ritory. Here in Juneau some 350 men are effected; in Ketchikan about 175 and other places in comparison.

(Cinci i Enquirer) Just now there is a gr of critict lief expenditure, particularly of tne proposal to ear- mark $1,500,000,000 for Federal relief operations in the coming f 1l year. Much of the discussion, on both sides, is highly partisan. Republican proposals those of conser lobbying groups cente about two m: objecti to abandon work reliet for the dole and to decentr: all relief by turning it back to the states. It is difficult to make a cz either of these proposals on their merits. So long as the country can stand the cost work relief is far better than a dole It is the American way to deal with unemployment ‘Those who I jobs are much more interested in get- ting work than in dr a pittance in their idle- ness. So far as the budget can support it the wor relief program should be continued. But rather than risk a serious fiscal collapse the less-costly dole sys- tem should be adopted, of course With respect to the other criticism, that of unduly centralized relief expenditure, sober second thought should convince the citizen who is not bound to purely partisan ideas that state administration of relief would not be an improvement. On the whole, with all glaring faults, the administration of reli by the Federal government has been better than it would have been if left to the mercies of state admin- istrative machines. One has only to consider the alter to recognize th satisfactory evidently at deal m of re- 0 for native for Ohio state conduct of relief would be less This is the more true since the states cannot raise the money needed. It is idle to propose that the Federal government should apply the funds and then exercise no control over its es penditure. That would invite the worst sort of abuses, for it would encourage irresponsible administration. France is trying to support both Italy and the League of Nations at the same time.
