SECRETARY M'ADO0 WOULD DISCOURAGE USE OF GOLD
 IN MAKING UP PAY ROLLS

The following statement has been made by Secretary McAdoo:
 The use of gold coin as circu- lating medium leads to rapid abra- sion and consequent loss of value. There is a real economy in using currency in all ordinary domestic transactions, letting coined gold be used as security behind gold certit- cates and as reserve for Federal re- serve notes and other forms of pa- per currency or for foreign ex- change settlements in cases where nothing else can be used in ad- justing international balances.
 There are some firms and corpor- ations, however, in various sections of the country which have been ac customed, in making up their pay rolls, to use machines for counting money. While there is no objection to the use of these machines in han ding silver coins, the use of gold in them in times like the present must be discouraged.
 In most cases firms and corpora tions which have been using gold in the practice, realizing the import ance of protecting the country's gold supply and of discouraging the wasteful use of gold for pay rolls, especially as in most cases the re- cipient of the gold coin would pre- fer paper money. In some cases, however, paymasters have seen fit to consult their own convenience and continue to make demands up- on the banks for gold coin for pay roll purposes. The banks, realizing the waste incident to the use of gold for such purposes, have object ed to meeting the demands of the paymasters, but in some instances have been threatened with the loss of the account in case of their fail ure to comply, statement being made that other banks in the community
 would be willing to furnish the gold in consideration of the trans fer of the account. It is hoped however, that upon reflection firms
 and corporations which are still using gold and banks which signi- fly their willingness to- furnish it will realize that this is a selfish and unpatriotic attitude, and that for the sake of the good of the coun- try in these serious times they will subordinate considerations of per sonal convenience or of profit to the general welfare and be content to make up their pay rolls in curren- cy, using silver coins, of course, for
 fractional payments.

MAIL ORDER HOUSES SUPPLYING TEACHERS
 PLACED UNDER BAN

DOUGLAS, Jan. 10.-At a meeting last night the principal subject un- der discussion was that of what might be termed mail order teacher supply houses. Not that the local board has been victimized by such institutions, but that it was deemed proper to take steps to prevent any thing of the kind in future.
 It seems that there exists in many cities outside, where such things are not prevented by law, organizations which make business of supplying teachers to outlying points such as Alaska regular en- ployment agencies which even go further in their exactions from the teachers supplied with positions than does the ordinary labor bu- reau. For example:
 Where teacher is placed an init ial charge of $2 is made, this charge being followed up to the ex- tent that the teacher is required to pay to the agency , per cent of his or her first years salary and 212 per cent. of the second years sal ary obtained for teaching, the teach CTS salary being practically mort gagged to the employment Uncle Isaacs."
 At the meeting last evening the board passed resolution to the ef- feet that such practices on the part of teacher-supplying bureaus are detrimental to educational interests in that they are unfair both to school and teacher, and particularly so to the latter. Also, the board resolved to send circular letters to other school boards in Alaska in forming them of the action taken here and requesting them to take steps along the same lines. In the State of Washington, it is said, there is a law preventing the existence and operation of these teachers mail order houses, but de spite that fact, such agencies are said to exist and operate. But in the future such agencies will be re quired to look further than Douglas for clientage.
 Harmony and general desire to advance the best interests of the school characterized the meeting last night, all differences of opinion regarding certain matters coming uI earlier in the week having been waived.

According to recent edition of the Nome Nugget, the city of Nome is now shut in, a large amount of slush ice having appeared and spread out over the bay to the south as far as the eye can reach. The heavy Arctic ice generally appears about this time but if no wind comes up to drive away the slush ice there will likely be no heavy ice as the former will remain over the bay all winter. Slush ice is the ice that is frozen in the Boring Sea and drifted with the currents.
