 NOW AVAILABLE


 Territorial Counsel J. H. Cobb win advise tho proper Territorial officials that they have the right to oxpend $52. GOO in the Territorial treasury re- ceiyed from the Tongass National for est and which was appropriated by the Legislature-25 per cent. to che Territorial schools and the remainder in four equal parts Go the road8 of lhe four Judicial Divisions. Mir. Cobb says there is now absolutely nothing to prevent the legal expenditure of the money as directed by Che Legisla- ture. The decision of Judge Robert W. Jennings yesterday in the suit to test the validity of the act approp. riating the money. Mir. Cobb said, left it subject to the terms of that act.
 Under the Territorial statute ap- proxlmately S13.O0O Of the receipts of the Tongass National forest were ap- proprlated for school purposes, and approximately $iO.OO0 for road pur- poses in each of the four Divisions. The road money is to be expended under the direction of Q road super visor in each of the Judicial Diyis- ions. These road supervisors were selected by the Legislature. The su- pervisor for the First Division is E. c. Austin. of Ketchikan.
 May Mean Mendenhali Bridge and
 Other Work.
 If no further action is taken to se. cure an injunction to prevent the i'm. mediate expenditure of the road mon ey, the SSO,O0O that the Alaska board of Road Commissioners may be ex. pended on the roads of the First Di- vision. This money was held up when lit became probable that the $iO,OOo of Territorial funds might not be ex. pended this year, because of the pres sure for money the maintenance of of roads already built. Among the new projects that this S30,000 was to pay for were the Mendenhall bridge near Knudsons ranch, the Charcoal Point Road. near eKtchikan, and the Skagway River bridge at Skagway The latter has already been ordered constructed.
