OVER \ MILLION IS
 SPENT ON ROADS

In letter to Governor Strong, in reply to queries as to road expendi- lures in Alaska, Capt Glenn c. Edger- ton, of the Alaska Roal Commission, sheds light on the disposition of mon- ies for roads and trails in the north. The letter, as read in the legislature during the roads discussion last week, reads as follows:
 'I have today wired you the amount that we have expended from the tax fund in each of the judicial divisions. Our districts do not correspond with the divisions as there are five of the former and their limits are varied at different times.
 The exact amount from the tax fund expended on roads other than military and post roads" in each of the divisions is given below. The figures are to the end of the last fis- cal year.
 "In addition to the above, all of the special appropriations and a small part of the tax fund have been expended on the ryutes considered as military and post roads" within the meaning of those words as used in the appro- priating acts: These roads include the road from Fort w. H. Seward to the Canadian boundary, the trunk line from Valdez and Chitina to Nome and St, Michael through Fairbanks and Fort Gibbon, as we'll as the Sew ard-Iditarod trail, which was especlel- ly named in the appropriation with which it was constructed.
 "The total amounts by divisions would be difficult to determine exact ly as the routes are not contermin- ous with the judicial divisions. The proportions of the several divisions would be as follows:

Were it not for the handicap of dis

is responding generously to Hawaii's

rapidly, and in commercial life the
growth is also large. Seattle is
