DAVID KEITH TELLS
OF TRIP TO ALASKA
Finds the Common People
Flat Broke, Owing to Un-
wise Government Policy.

Special to Tho Tribune.
LOS ANGELES. Aug. David Keith
a director of the Salt Lake railroad and
wealthy mining man and banker OF
Salt Lake City, arrived at the Alexandra
today, en- route home from months trip
to Ala ska.
"The common men Of Alaska are fat
broke" said Keith this afternoon, They
knew Of the vast resources OF the great
country and saw capital begin to develop
tho coal and copper deposits and they
risked their little all in getting to the
country expecting things to be prosper
GUS Now the federal government, car
ried away by Pinchot's unwise and fool
ish policy OF conservation has put a
clamp on Alaska and the common people
are fat broke
s''They cannot realize on, what they have
Invested and they cannot get away unlcss
they return to the United States almost
as paupers / saw and talked to people
who were suffering from the cold on ac-
count of not being able to cut wood for
their fires and Saw men with deposits OF
the governments rulings.
'In sharp contrast to these conditions
is Canadian Alaska, just across the Unit
ed States line. There everything Is pros
porous and the people are enjoying the
benefits OF the natural resources OF the
gteat country. All along the coast OF Can
ada and up to the boundary line or the
United States portion of Alaska we found
superb lighthouses which Gnioed sailing
masters, but after we crossed the l,ne
into United states Ale ska there was not
q yestigo Of a lighthouse or buoy.
Coal Is mined in Canadian Alaska and
sold at n big profit 10 the residents OF
United States Alaska. while the latter
own better coal deposits than are in Ca
madam Alaska,
Millions OF dollars have been invested
In Alaska, and ali Of this Is tied up or
account OF the short sighted conservation
policy"

The passage OF the 100000 appropria-

Mexico means that the Mormon families
who will be unable to return to Mexico
will be sent back to Salt Lake to await
the time for the country to again be
colonized by the Mormons. This was an
