SAVINGS THROUGH TOURISTS

The Wan Street Journal that the saving of the United States this year of the amount usually spent in Europe by American tourists vas not estimated high enough by Secretary of the Interior Lane when he placed the amount at SlooOOo0oo The Journal says that Ss5OO00O00 is conservative estimate of the saw ngs from this source Some New York bankers t says. have estimated that Americans annually spend S5oOO0Oooo yearly in Europe. and it sets forth the items Of expenditures However the Journal concludes as summary of extended statement. that at least ss5OooOOoO win be kept at home this year this ac- count alone and that it may be added to the SiOooeoO- 900 balance of trade in favor of the United States
 i might be we'll also, to add to this SlS5O00OooO that represents the balance of trade in our favor and the savings of travellers approximately S75o0oOoO in interest and dividends on American securities that have been repurchased and loans that have been made to foreign countries and concerns which have already begun making their first interest payments It is estimated that this las, for the fiscal year that has just begun will exceed S2oooooooo
 However the total balance in our favor in the year that has just closed from these three items make a grand total of $fA25OOOOo0 The estimates for tRe coming year of the three items will carry well aboye S25oO0ooooe
 These figures require no emDehishment to explain wbs Is that fnanciers predicting that the United States is fast becoming the commercial and banking center of the world

PROMOTING ROAD WORK
fFairbanks Cilizon)

 I has been found Id the States that good roads a' ways follow the popular use Of he automobile. and one same may bc expected in Interior Alaska Automobiles are especially useful tere where che keeping oi hofs es s exceedingly expensive. and it may be assumed that their popularity wll rapidly increase eocn year
 Since automobiles became popular there has been revolution In road building in an parts Of the unleo States Almost every county and almost every sate has spent thousands Of dollars for paved roads where before existed only county turnpikes The expenses have been met to a material extent by the automobile owners. who have been taxed to meet t The taSpay' ers too n every case haze been almost unanimous n tneir support Of taxation for road work for almost all Of them own automobiles and those that do not own machines realize that from commercial viewpoint the roads are profitable Investments
 As soon as the railroad from the coast to Far banks is completed it certain that automobile roads will be more than ever in demand. and no time should be lost in getting the most important thoroughtares improved to meet the expected demands In every place. railroads must be fed by auto truck service. which really have become essential in the matter of sup- porting railroads This win be the case here, and it really would be well for the government to begin next year Co double the appropriations for the country Dor dering the railroad.
 But n the meantime there is much that can be done to promote the building of better roads t was suggested some time ago by the Citizen that the Auto mobile owners form an auto Club here just as they do in various parts of the States for the purpose of pro- noting the improvement Of the roads There is nothing like organized effort Go gain any end, and tho sooner the automobile owners set busy the sooner they may expect to realize good results.
