BOYS WORK IN WAR
(Exchange)

Last seasons speeding up of production, and with drawals of men from industries for war. brought call to the boys of the country for help This espe- cialy desirable in the harvest and fruitpickng and many boys, and girls too answered the call This year the need is even more insstent. The worlds oo supplies are lessening under the submarine the emergen needs of the armies, and the withdrawal Of one and one-half million from industrial and commercial life for army service has weakened food production great army of boys and young under 21 years of must be mobzed this spring summer to assist in food production.

JAPANESE INTERVENTION

There seems to be no further room for doubting that Japan is to begin military ope ratlons ln Siberia for the purpose of safe guarding the interests of the allied powers From the information being given out, it is indicated that there has been no limit set by the>a allies upon Japanese action, it being left to the judgment of the Japanese statesmen how far to go.
 The immediate object of the Siberian operations is to prevent immense stores of supplies from being taken over by the Ger mans. The greater part of these stores are in, or near, Vladivostok, and the remainder stored along the route of the Trans Siberian railway in convenient places
 The first step to be expected, therefore, is the military occupation of Vladivostok in sufficient force to fully protect these supplies and additional troops to occupy the portion of Siberia in which the remainder of the stores are held This now seems to be the only action necessary
 Developments incident to this under taking, however, may bring about situation which would call for even more vigorous and extensive operations. This is a condition which the American government as we'll as the allied powers, is anxious to avoid, and which has caused some hesitation in accept ing Japanese proposals
 This reluctance was not caused by any suspicion regarding Japanese motives Per feet confidence is placed in the assurances of the Japanese government that she only de- slrcs to protect the allied powers from a di- saster in the Far East, and it is not thought by any of those concerned that Japan has any ulterior motives in setting forward her propo- sltion for a military offensive in Siberia
 The hesitation of the allies, and particu- larly of the United States, has been due to the desire to avoid new complications in the Russian situation as long as there might be a chance that Russia would manage to keep tree from German influence The signing o1 the German peace terms has created an emergency which releases the allies from all considerations of Russian sentiment and fore es them to act for their own protection. If there 1s/no attempt to prevent the Japanese forces from assuming temporary control of territory which is vital for protection of the allied interests, the Japanese offensive is hard ly likely to be of serious nature
 It is the hope of the American govern ment and of the American people that the Russians will see the need for this move and not attempt to oppose it with force. But in any case it is necessary that the move be made, and it will probably be done regardless of the Russian attitude.

NO MAKESHlFT PEACE
(St. Louis Republic)

The Teutonic peace duet-Von Hertng on the trombone and Czernin the fute-leaves us cold affair is too perunctory The respective premers of to do so by imperial order. They make effort to the clearcut outspoken of President Wilson and Lloyd George. but the result is evasse shufflng which lacks sincerity and strength
 The German chancellor plays high. he consid. While apparently accepting certain of the propositions laid down by President Wilson, he brushes others matters for consideration between Germany and in divdual members of the entente, and rejects other like the proposed cesson of AlsaceLorrane France with scornful emphasis.
 Count Czernin. the other hand, adopts more conciliatory tone. probably by agreement He njects the plantive, injured innocence into the discus sion. Austria wants not single of territory single of indemnity" Of not With Poland nicely tucked away the Austrian sack, under the guise of autonomy. and Ukrane already erected barrier between Austria and Russia, there is territory Austria covets, unless it be Serbia slice of Rumania This she is willing to forego however, if allowed to hold to the punder she has accumulated during many years of predatory dealing.
 The longdelayed replies of the central powers to the terms of Great Britain and the United States which were endorsed by all the other anGermanic al lies. may be summed up follows: 1-They are per. functory. made only because something demanded and expected. 2-They hold out hope of just, sonable and permanent peace. 3-They invita- ton merely to prolonged debate which could lead only to makeshift agreement compromise that would satisfy nobody.
 The conclusion. therefore. is that the must be fought out Germany will accept other decision Austria is with Germany. matter how piteousy may whine for peace.

do so with an intelligent appreciation of our, needs and base this legislation upon the princi- pie of releasing our locked resources to these needs.
 The matter is up to the people of this district Mir. Sulzer cannot pass this legisla- tion unaided. The Protective Game Associa tion says that the people of Alaska are not asking for these changes; just few people who expect to benefit by them. Is this state ment to be allowed to go unchallenged to the halls of congress-? It is untrue This is a matter that should be handled by the local Commercial club, and immediately.

ALASKA GAME LAWS

It is apparent that a strong fight is go- ing to be waged by the American Game Pro- tective Association upon the proposed changes in the Alaska game laws as set forth by Dele gate Sulzer's bill now pending before con- gress The fight will be all the more bitter on account of the attitude which is being taken by ex-President Roosevelt in connec- ton with the same measure.
 The people of Alaska, however, do not usually object to good scrap, and event the prospect of bout with the redoubtabe Col onel of Rough Riders will not dampen their ardor for the fray. At any rate, if we want those game laws changed so that we can ut- lize our wild meat resources, we have got to fight for the changes. The people of the in terior of Alaska started the proposed changes, and it is largely at their suggestion that Mir. Sulzer introduced the legislation which so aroused the ire of the eastern sportsmen and awakened the naturalist instincts of Colonel Roosevelt
 In making our fight to aid the delegate, it should be emphasized that it is utilization of resources which we are striving for, and not destruction. We know that indiscrmi- nate killing of game regardless of sexes and age, would be disastrous to the country, and it is fully realized that wanton killing of game is reprehensible. It is not necessary for the game association and Roosevelt to in struct Us in this matter, since it is lesson taught in every Alaskan primer. In fact, the bill which it is now sought to pass pro vides every proper means of conservation and protection for the propagation of Alaskan animal life.
 The attitude taken by the opposition to the bill is convincing enough to AlaSkanS that the opponents are more ignorant of Alaskan conditions and resources than is usually the case with Outsiders If these people really desire to be of assistance to Alaska, as they so boldly assert, it might be worth while for them to make first-hand study of conditions before asserting their right to tell us what we need and should have.
 This desire of ignorant Outsiders to leg islate for us, to make laws telling us what we can and cannot do has been and still is the greatest drawback to Alaskan prosperity The country is years behind what it should be because of the viciousness of such sys- tenn, and it is high time that change should be made.
 The changes proposed in the present game laws are vital to this section of the country. With uncounted thousands of cari- bou herding through the country we are at present unable to utilize even the yearly in crease without becoming criminals liable for prosecution in federal courts. It is time that the country knew little something about AL aska, so that, if it is to egislate for us, it can

F. H. BAILEY IS
 GOING OUTSIDE

Recent arrivals from Nenana state that F. H. Bailey, division engineer in charge of the Nenana division during the absence of Thomas Riggs, Jr., will be in Fairbanks within the next few days enroute to the Out side, where he is going on business connected with the commission.
 While it is not authoritatively stat ed, the opinion is expressed that he will be the successor of MT. Riggs as a member of the commission, should the nomination of the latter for governor of Alaska be confirmed.

DREAD THE TRUTH


 censorship and there are certain limitations placed on German papers which are not vio- lated by even the hardest of them. Occa- sionally the Vorwaerts breaks over the dead line and is suppressed for tme Its editor seems unable to withstand the temptation of correcting some of the boasts of the kaiser and his henchmen.
 One such occasion arose recently when the Vorwaerts recalled that the German high command had promised victory within six months from the beginning of the unrestrict- ed sinking of merchant vessels. This brought a vigorous denial from von Tirpitz and others that he had predicted that England would be on the verge of starvation within six months as result of the submarine war. Won Tir- pitz was promptly jerked up by the paper. In its discussion of the submarines, the Vor- waerts said:
 "The rejection of our peace offer of De- cember 12, 1916, and the entente reply to Wilson ripened opinion for the opening of unrestricted submarine warfare. This war has now been going on eleven months. When its most eager advocates now assert that they never prophesied definite term for its dura- tion, their memories are cheating them. The period within which England was certainly to be forced into peace by unrestricted sub marine war was six months. There would be no sense in concealing the fact that in this very lmportant'matter we proceeded with very erroneous assumptions Those who a year ago cast suspicion upon n.all who did not be- lieve in six months theory, and called them traitors and partisans of England might have reason to be somewhat more cautious in the future.
 "While the submarine war has not achieved what we hoped of it, it has, of course, seriously impaired our enemies con duct of the war; and favored the successes which we have achieved in the war on land On the other hand, it brought us war with America, and thereby threw to the entente another rope of hope to which it clings stub bornly It was. .not until the year 1917 that the European war became a real world war An enormous pressure was put upon Ger many, but relief came not from the subma- rine war, whence the relief was expected but from the Russian resolution"
 Each week produces records which give the German high command less hope for a U-boat victory than might have been ex- pected year ago. There is every reason to hope that this will become even more pro- nounced as the war drags out its weary length. Shipbuilding has reached the stage where it practically equals the number of vessels lost through the submersibles war; and the methods of combating the enemy craft are daily increasing in efficiency. The real failure of the U-boats does not lie in the failure to starve England and France into submission, but in bringing into the war America with her almost unlimited resources of men, money and materials. It will be many long year before the German nation forgets the submarine campaign.
