TRUE AND FALSE CONSERVATION

In his Palace Theatre speech Delegate Suzer sad that coal and oil cannot be conserved by placing part of the American coal lands in reservations and keeping them locked up.* He said and that very truly that coal and oil not produced for the pur- pose of wasting. Therefore it is a question as to whether or not Alaska coal and oil to be used or the coal and oil produced in other place. The rue principes of conservation are served when the coal and oil that be delivered cheapest and with least and smallest tax transportation facilities a given point used at that point The only way to coal and oil that is to reduce quantity used would be to put out the fire in fur naces and forges sails shipsor restore the sweeps and galley slaves 1t would be preposerous to urge such policy therefore the efforts of the people should directed toward the release of coal and oil all fields and thus the cost of trans portaon the people.

 One can easily imagine fleets of boats sailing dirctly from Western Alaska ports, such Anchor age direct to Siberian Japanese and Chinese ports
 The Pacific Coast of North America has always needed mostly for it's development deposits coking coal and iron ore, and in all probability these two will be found in such commercial to make this portion of Alaska the Pttsburgs and Birmnghams of the Pacific

 What he says is unquestionably true. The news of French cabinet crisis stirs not the least iety in the allied breasts They know that it will pass and that France will remain firm. In fact, the pres ent cabinet change is encouraging rather than other wise. It results from lack of confidence in the ability of the ministry carry the az gressively enough to suit the majory-aggressively enough at the front and behind the front, where spy activities unquestionaby numerous
 The French system of parties and gov ernment by majority bloc of their representatives lends itself to frequent readjustments of cabinet personnel frequent by far than the British sys- tenn. small party may break away and destroy the bloc" command of majority in the legislature. But the situation is often promptly met and reme- died by making enough concessions another group to the necessary control Thus there is cabinet change. but few of the cabinet ministers change Sometimes almost the whole original cabi- net comes back.

that does not rob the nerves of nour-
