Data Is Lacking.

The report emphasizes the inadequacy
of the data available concerning the Ohio
river system and urges the necessity for
an immediate broadening OF the past and
present meager studies of the conduct OF
the many great tributaries of the Ohio,
which shall conclusively answer the much
discussed question whether the floods Of
the Ohio can be absolutely controlled by
reservoirs and levees.
Whatever may be the merits Of the re-
spective schemes for flood control, there
can be no doubt of the absolute necessity
for q comprehensive plan of action, nor
can the value of the prevention OF dam
age by floods be overestimated. To be
effective any system of control must treat
the Ohio and It's tributaries as a unit,
with due regard to the effect OF such
control of the Ohio on the Mississippi
below Cairo. To make such q compre-
hensive system OF control practicable, ef-
ficient and successful. a central organi-
cation for the control of rivers is need
ed Such a central organization would
rily have TO be federal, but II
could not be successful without broad
minded, hearty and unselhsh cooperation
on the part of the states, counties, mu-
inequalities, and private interests through
out the Ohio valley.
The report is published as Water SUP
ply Paper asa and was prepared by A. Fl.
Horton and II. J. Jackson. IT includes a
large number OF records of stream flow
and former foods, as well as illustrations

UTAH OPERATOR is

west, came in this week from Irwin can

opinion that Irwin canyon, Heslth's can

WHAT ALASKA NEEDS
is CLEARLY STATED

Among the practical men who have
recently expressed their views on the
present condition OF Alaska and the
things needed for its expansion is e. E.
SwergI of the New York Central COM
pany. He made an exhaustive study OF
the question and in late Issue OF the
Railway Age Gazette he sums up his
findings as follows:
What is needed as remedy Is the
adoption by the government Of definite
and business-like development program,
embrac cling five general items:
!. Early development Of railroads by
private enterprise, assisted and regulated
by the government. or wholly undertaken
by the government
2. Revision of mining laws. particu-
larly coal land laws, TO permit OF prac-
tical and early development
3 More liberal appropriations TO the
army engineers who have charge OF high
enable them TO effect a more rapid ex-
tension OF trails, and for the substantial
bridging Of streams at dangerous points,
4. A comprehensive plan for addi-
tiOnal fixed aids to navigation along othe
coast.
5. Construction OF fortified coaling
bunkers for naval and merchant vessels.
In commenting on Mr.. Swergal's state
situation in the territory in general
way, the San francisco Post said. 'In
other words. Mr.. Swergals pleads for
the government to open the country to
development. capital and enterprise just
as California and other western states
we're opened half a century ago. For

ern stamp were not in power when the
transcontinental railways were being
built and when settlers were pouring into
the new west II they had been. the
Pacific states today would be in much
the same position as Alaska, Mr.. Swer-
gal believes railroads In the territory
should be built and operated by private
capital, as in the states. with equitable
financial assistance and regulation by
the government. But he does not Insist
on this view. The important thing Is
that the roads should be built without
delay, whether by private enterprise OF
by the government. TT built by private
interests, the government should pro-
vide liberal assistance. as IT did when the
railroads were being pushed westward

''It Is, therefore, a fair assumption that
some such totals are likely TO obtain In
years subsequent to those above detailed,
even though advancing prosperity IN
India may enable its inhabitants to ham
die gold more freely than heretofore.
. THE crying need Of China Is for
currency reform. An item Like the fol-
lowing exposes the inconveniences which
fail upon the common folk In conse-
Quence OF the present absence OF sound

"There are In the colony Of Hongkong

notes are payable only IN subsidiary

cured. the discount upon them has
rea ched as high a rate as 30 per centum.
