would fall behind the 1917 record by
1270o,000 tons.

CLUB MEMBERS
 ELECT OFFICERS
 FOR NEW TERM

The special meeting of the Nenana Commercial club, called last night for the purpose of choosing officers for the ensuing year, proved to be one of the most enthusiastic gather ings held by that organization in many months, and much business of importance to the club and to the community was transacted. The meeting lasted over three hours.
 Commissioner R. s. Mcdonald, who has been an active member of the club since his arrival in Nenana more than a year ago, was the un- animous choice of the members for the office of president, succeeding Geo. w. Pennington, who has occu- pied the chair during the past year. Dr. J. R. Bowen, who has taken a prominent part in all work under taken by the organization in the past, was elected vice e-president H. B. Joseph, was reelected secretary treasurer by unanimous vote. J. A. Slippern, Ralph I. Waechter, George Martin and Geo. w. Pennington, serving in conjunction with the regu- lar officers of the club, will com- pose the new board of directors Following the election of of off cers, considerable discussion was in dulged in relative to the probability of greatly improved conditions in Alaska after peace has been re. stored in Europe and it was the opinion of the members present that determined effort should be made by the club to promote the interests of Nenana and the development of the mineral resources in the imme. diate neighborhood of Nenana. The members were enthusiastic over the outlook and an aggressive campaign will be inaugurated at an early date.
 A committee was appointed to in vestigate a proposition submitted by the Nenana Labor Union, relative tt the rental of a portion of the Unior building to the Commercial club fol meeting purposes.
 Retiring President Geo. w. Pen nington was appointed committee of one to address a letter to the relatives of Harold Anderson ant Royal R. Douse, extending the sym pathy of the organization over the loss of the two former members both of whom succumbed to influ. enza while in training at Camp Dodge for overseas service.
 There was some discussion re- garding a celebration, to be held when Germany shall have accepted the Allied peace terms, but no defi- nate action was taken. There was strong sentiment in favor of such celebration, however, and there is every assurance that the restora- tion of peace, when it shall have been officially announced. will be enthusiastically observed in Nenana

IT DOESN'T LOOK GOOD

No better plan was ever devised for carrying the war risks of our soldiers and sailors than the government pro viding insurance in place of pensions. The public was only too glad to as sume any necessary burdens in the way of taxation to give the boys pro lection.
 Now comes the ''nigger in the wood- pile.'
 Press dispatches announce: Out of the experience gained may eventually develop the expansion of government insurance to old age, industrial and other forms of insurance in the opinion of officials"
 It doesn't take keen vision to see the force at work behind this move.
 The socialistically inclined poli- tician has already tried to pass so- called health and social insurance measures in legislatures of eastern states patterned after the Ger man system and expanding patrnal- ism. The most recent attempt was in last California election where the proposition was put up to a vote # the people and showed under three to one.
 Reading between the lines one can see that the same forces are now at work trying to load this system onto the government in more extended form.
 Insure our enlisted men to the limit for life, but watch out that our soldier insurance is not abused and made the vehicle for loading the tax payer down with one of the pet schemes of autocracy.

FUTURE CF TIE WOOL AND
 SHEEP INDUSTRY Y

The gcTcrnmeL $ of bo,L England and the United States are taking steps to stabilize 5his industry which lies at the b-sis of both food and clothing supply.
 The present domcs.ic clip of wool is already taken care of by action of our government and with favorable state legislation flocks will increase.
 To stabilize wool prices in the transition from war to peace basis, England has laid plans to purchase all colonial wools for the next 12 months.
 However much Germany may need wool, England and her allies will hold the whip hand by being the greatest wool merchants in the world.
 Continental countries are bare of all descriptions of wool clothing and vii pick up supplies of wool handled by the wool trade outside the govern ment control.
 There is much reason to encourage the increase of flocks.
