 TO ALL BAKERS

Juneau. Feb. l3, 1918.

Juucdu, ftU. lhf l'lo'
 The following telegram from Her bert C. Hover, United States Food Admmistrator received at the of- flee of the Federal Food Administra- tor for Alaska this morning:
 "Rumors have reached our baking section that bakers propose raising bread prices on account of price Of wheat flour substitutes. As one bar rel of flour produces two hundred and sevcnty-Gve pound loaycs and these substitutes will comprise only one-Gfh flour content, if victory bread, thc cost os bread will bc in- creased less than onc-tenth of a cent per loaf for each dollar per barrel that substitutes cost more than flour. Present prices of substitutes due Co resale within trade in some sections, also transportation difficulties. We earnestly believe that lrcor move mcut of grains Co mill will result in lower prices. lt would be most un- fortunate for wheat saving cam paign if introduction of Victory bread were Co be signalizcd by ad- vance in prices Please inform bakers you do not think advance in price due to a temporary condition like this is justified. Matter of re- sales within trade should likewise have earnest consideration"
 Also the following wire from Hoover received this morning:
 "For bread and rolls an hotels, restaurants. clubs. boarding houses and other public eating places are required to purchase one pound of wheat flour substitutes for every four pounds of wheat flour pur- chased. In purchase of flour for an other purposes the hfty-nfty rule applies"

Bridgeport, Ncb.-"I will not honceforth speak against the Amer jean government or against Amer ica's share in this war.
 "I will donate $25O to the Red Cross.
 "I will donate s25o to the Y. NJ. C. A.
 "I will purchase government bonds to the amount Of $l,OOO and | will purchase $lOO worth Of Thrift Stamps.
 "1 will pay the expenses Of the men who accompanied me from Lisco today.
 "I will bear no grudgc against the men who brought me here or tes- tiGed against me before the Council of Defense.
 "I will display an American flag on or at my residence and will keep it displayed during the continuance of this war. Harry r. Dudden."
 This pledge, signed by a wealthy farmer of Lisco. Morrill, County in- dicatcs how pro-Germans are being treated in Nebraska these days The story as it is told in the Bridgeport paper follows:
 "Yesterday was a busy day for the Council of Defense. Three per sons appeared before the board. after being summoned by sherin Dyson. to respond 10 charges of being dis loyal to the government Of the United States.
 Harry r. Duddcn. of LiscO. was the first to be examined. The charge against him was made by s. C. Cheney, of Lisco. the complaint be- ing that Dudden had refused to make any donation to patriotic work and had torn the American flag from his automobile that had been placed thereon by patriotic workers of Lisco. and had been guilty of pro- German statements Five witnesses from Lisco besides Cheney testified against Dudden. After the witness cs had told their story, Dudden made a statement i'm his own behalf He plainly that he sympa- thizcd with Germany in this war. and did not agree with the war purposes of the United States.
 Upon being questioned further, he admitted that he had property worth approximately twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars, but claimed he owed about twelve thousand dol lars. This property he has accumu- lated since coming to Lisco. with the exception of about twelve hundred dollars. He denied tearing the flags on his automobile. but said they came on in some manner unknown to him He was inclined 10 be a little supcrciliOus at the beginning, but altered his dcmcanor consider ably before the end. After the tes- timony had been concluded. Chair man Hunt and Dr. C. Palmer gave Mr. Duddon strong lectures on the duties of American citizenship, and said some very plain things 10 him. It is unnecessary to relate all that was said or done. but it is sufficient Co say that before the proceedings came Co an end MT. Duddcn made and signed the statement"

URGE MINING
 ALASKA COAL
Eastern Papers See in Alaska Great Factors in Winning Worlds
 War for Right

The Alaska bureau of the Seattle Chamber Of Commerce has issued booklet containing facts, ire quently noted but significant enough Co be worth bearing i'm mind, relat- ing Co the vastncss of the resources of Che northern territory. Alaska is twelve times as large as the state Of New York. It's imports during 1916 amounted Co S3O.S3A7O3, its exports S7g.533.3S5. Gold to the value of $1G.329,437 was produced in 1916; copper production broko an records with a value of $35,3lI,-. 9g3 Alaska has the only Gin mines on the continent, and $1lO,OOO worth Of the metal was mined i'm the last year for which figures arc available
 Coal deposits ranging in grade from Ignite Co anthracite, and said Co be greater in area than were or igiually contained in the state of Pennsylvania. are waiting Co Doe worked iu the territory; mineral oil is being produced and refined from one claim patented, and further de- vclopmcnt of this industry awaits throwing open oil lands to entry Fishing is a great Alaskan industry. and the fishing banks on tho south coast fthc territory and the Aleu- tlan islands are greater in area than those of any other country; rein deer in Alaska number S5,OOO, and promise to be an important source of food spply; agriculture is being found more profitable year by year spruce forests will furnish the raw material for a large paper industry. not Co mention airplones; vast water power awaits development.
 The shortage of ncccssarios which Alaska produces plcntifully may turn greater public attention Co the northern "empire." It is the only American possession with extensive undevclopcd mineral resources. Full use Of these cannot be had until adc- quate facilities are provided The possibilities of Alaska as a factor i'm the world war must not be for gotten. Indianapolis News.
 There is coal in Alaska, plenty of it. but it lies in the ground waiting for human energy Co get [ out. Why? That is the question to which tho Alaskan bureau of the Seattle Chamber Of Commerce is. seeking an answer. It has just is- sued two informing booklets on the subject of Alaskan development
 It seems that helpful Legislation is needed to stimulate activity The government is now constructing a railroad line that will tap some of the coal fields. But that is clearly not enough. Men are not going to put money and hard work into such hazard as coal mining i'm that region unless they have a reasonably fair field for getting a decent re- turn for their investment. The sane thing to do is to change the laws if they unduly hinder and hamper
 Alaska is a land of great possi- bllucs and Uncle Sam should give such encouragement as will aid in development, while at the same time safeguarding the interests of tho people. This should not be a dini- cult matter, and we believe the Alas ka bureau is doing good work in call
 ing attention to the defects that exist Bristol (ConnD Press.
