 may charerng of boats for the convenience o investigators like Dr. Jones' for instance, whose expenses and salary while investigating the fisheries of Alaska amounted to nearly much new cable would If consider the benefit that we will derive investigators investigation of the fisheries and the benefit We would derive from cable, the spo ted generosity of government becomes glarngy aP- parent and shows either careessness lack of good management.
 For years the old rotten Alaska government cable caused untold ineonvenences those who pay for its supposed maintainance If government cannot afford to give us cables least it should without delay replace old makeshift with Should impraeticabe whatever is paid to the operators the cable should be paid to the Marconi Wireless as subsidy and discard the old cable. The people pay for good service and they should have it. They pay when the operators do not give them value received Not that the operators blame because they have their hands tied, tangled it in rotten cable but just the same people pay their wages which shows that our government is generous just ill spots.
