ALASKA MAY BRING
 DOWN OIL PRICES

WASHINGTON, March l5.-Alas- ka petroleum interests have asked the federal trade commission for permis- sion to be heard during the commis- sion's investigation of the increased price of gasoline.
 It is understood the Alaska inter- ests will tell the commission of new petroleum fields in Alaska containing oil of high percentage in gasoline.
 In fact, it is claimed that in the Katalla fields alone has been manu- factured gasoline from oil seepages which contains the highest percentage in gasoline of any oil yet discovered. The oils, also, are of the lighter vari- ety and are considered the most val uable.
 Those interested in bringing the Alaska fields to the attention of the commission during that transporta- ton is the only thing needed to solve the problem of opening to the general markets of the United States a vast supply of oil. It is also claimed that certain interests have been operating to keep the Alaska fields from being exploited and developed.

ABSENCE AMERICAN TOURISTS
 CLOSES BOND STREET SHOPS

LONDON, March 13-Bond street, London's aristocratic show shop thoroughfare, is suffering heavily on account of the war, it was learned for the first time today. Some Bond street shop owners already have ap- peared in court requesting a reduc- ton of their valuation and have sum- moned witnesses to prove their cases. Evidence elicits that there now are thirty-three vacant shops in New Bond street and ten in Old Bond street, whereas there was not a single vacancy at the beginning of the war. Many shOp-keepers have moved their stocks to less expensive neighbOr- hoods.
 There is practically no sale for luxurious laces, expensive jewelry, Chinese porcelains, Italian embroider- ies paintings by old masters and hun dreds of other articles usually bought by the rich.
 The situation, according to the Bond street salesmen, is chiefly due to the absence of American and Continental buyers. The British trade is practi- cally nil.

Baron Long Plans Boxing Car

 Baron Long proposes to make next New Years Day one long to be re- membered in fstania The pompous Baron, with Jimmy Coffroth is one of the owners of Tia Juana race track in Lower California. When he was in New York a few weeks ago with CoHroth he mentioned the fact that he wanted to arrange a finish fight for the lightweight championship between Welsh and White.
 Since then Long has evidently got the carnival" idea in his bonnet The following wire to Harry Pol lock, Welsh's manager, gives an in- sight as to what is on the Baron's mind:
 Harry Pollock, Washington Place,
 Brooklyn.
 'In addition to Welsh-Whito match we talked of, am figuring on Willard and Weinert and Williams and Ertle to take place during the Christmas holidays. All to be to a finish. Get terms from Williams and Ertle and wire me what you want for Weinert.
 BARON LONG"
 If the Baron puts over that show he is equalling the great carnival of 1892 at New Orleans when Dixon met Skelly. McAun6e faced Meyers and Sullivan toed the mark with Corbett.
 Coffroth, of course, is the domin- ating figure in the proposed carni- val. James W. has been hankering for a fling at the game in which he made a fortune He hasn't conduct ed bout since the California laws put an end to boxing in that state. On his TiaJuana grounds he can do as he likes and evidently boxing is getting to be one of his likes. Pol lok said recently.
 "They can go right ahead with the arrangements as far Welnert and Welsh are concerned. We are ready and win be at the drop of the hat.

AMERICAN CORPS TO
 LOSE DISTINCTIVE TITLE

WASHINGTON. Nov. H. - The famous American aviation corps of the French army probably soon will lose officially its distinctive title as a result of protests to the state de- partment that use of the name is not compatible with American neutral lty. There will be no formal eX- changes on the subject, but the state department will suggest informally to the French foreign office that mention of the American corps in official communiques puts this coun- try in an embarrassing position.
 There is no doubt here that this point of view will be appreciated in Paris.

"I will get in touch with Ertle and Williams as soon as possible to see what terms they want. They won't have to worry about what I'll want for Weinert. AS for Welsh, I've already agreed to take what they offered. But I think the Bar on is on a wild goose chase when he tries to drag White into a ring with Welsh for a finish fight He might just as well try to fly to the moon on a box kite. As for Willard, l will leave 1t to the public mag nation as to what Jack Curley will want for Willard's services"
