JUNEAU, Dec. 4. - (By MaiD. - That there is over half a million dol lars in the Territorial Treasury at the present time, but that this will be de- plcted greatly when the school and road appropriations are made is the statement of Territorial Treasurer Walstein G. Smith, who returned yes tcrday from the North. Further de- tails concerning the funds appears in the Skagway Alaskan, which inter- viewed Mir. Smith while he wa sthere:
 Despite heavy disbursements to- ward Territorial road work there are at the present time $7OO,OOO in the treasury. which amount will be con- siderably reduced when the first al- lotment of funds is made to schools.
 The Alaska Legislature has instruc- ted the Territorial Treasurer to allot S5O,OOO per year, for Q period of two years, to each division, for road work
 This totals S2OO,OOO per year, howev- CT, some of the divisions have not used their full allotment, which mon, ey still remains in the treasury, fol use the coming season. Big appro

priations have been made for schools outside of incorporated towns, and in addition $315,OOO has been set aside, each year for a period of two years, for schools in incorporated towns. The latter schools send their bills to the treasury every three months, and up to this time none has been receiv- ed When this payment is made considerable shrnkage in the funds will take place.
 Mir. Smith stated the reason for the big expenditures by the TerIitor- ial treasury was because of the de-. crease in federal taxes causing a shrinkage in the Alaska fund, and be- cause of the decrease in taxes from incorporated towns, which were re- turned to those towns. The Alaska fund, set aside 65 per cent for the Road Commission, 25 per cent. to sup ply schools outside of incorporated towns, and 10 per cent went to judges ] for the relief of destitution in their districts. This fund is constantly shrinking, necessitating larger appro- priations on the part of the Tenitor- l ial treasury as authorized by the legislature.
 7 The heavist tax season for this year ! is yet to come from January to April I The biggest sources of revenue to the ! Territory are from fish and mining; the former pay a graduated tax and the latter pay 1 per cent of their net income. Fish traps pay $1OO a year. Doctors. dentists, lawyers, bakeries, laundries and registered boats pay a yearly tax. Telephone companies, electric and water companies pay 1a of 1 per cent of their gross receipts. Autos for hire pay a yearly tax of $500; public messengers pay $25, meat markets and cold storage plants { pay a graduated tax, and the rail- roads of Alaska pay a tax of per cent on the gross income.
