EDITORS OF ROME HONOR
NJ MELLV|LLE {. STO \ {.
GENERAL MANAGER ASSO-
ClATED PRESS is WINED
AND DINED.

Rome, Sept. l3.-The press of
Rome, today gave luncheon in
honor of Melville f. Stone, general
manager of The Associated Press
which took on the character of a
demonstration of Italo-American
friendship.
The guests included members of
the cabinet, senator's, deputies and
newspapermen, without distinction.
Premier Orlando sent message
from the front to Mr.. Stone as d
tribute to the organization which
the guest OF honor represented and
praised the fraternal solidarity of
the Italian and American press, pre-
cious collaboration in the common
work
Deputy Andrea Tore, president
of the Italian press association, well
coined Mr.. Stone in the name of the
entire Italian press. Francesca Nit
ii. minister of the treasury, speak
ing in the name of the government,
expressed its strong faith that the
cooperation of America in the war
would lead to definite victory. He
purposed toasts to President Wilson
and the American army.
In reply, Mr.. Stone expressed
thanks in the name of his country,
pointing out that both Italy and
America were inspired in this war
by the same ideals. Amid great ap-
plause, he proposed the health of
King Victor Emmanuel and toast
to the Italian army.
A notable incident was the pre-
sentation TO Mr.. Stone of an Italian
flag on which the names OF those
present were inscribed.

nual death rate from disease was
100 per 1000. During the Civil
War the rate was 40 per 1000 i'll
1862 and it jumped to 90 per 1000
the following year. The disease
death rate for the Spanish-Ameri-
can war was Is per 1000.
AS far as available records go
the lowest rate heretofore estab-
lished in any of the armies of the
world was that of the Russo apan-
ese war, when the rate was 20 per
1000 men.
"In the Crimean war; said Sur
geon General Gorgas recently,
"one-fourth of the French army, or
250,000 men died OF disease. In the
Russo Japanese war the death rate
was brought down to about 20 men
per 1000 per year. Our disease
record so far has been eight men
per 1000 per year. We hope to
keep it there or reduce it.
The greatest surgeons and physi-
clans of the nation have become
volunteers in war work. Many of
these men, representing every branch
of medicine and surgery are drawing
yearly salaries that are less than one
fee commanded in civil life.
There were seven army hospitals
in this country when war was de-
clared against Germany. Now there
ase more than sixty army hospitals
here and % have capacity of
more than one thousand patients
each. Hospitals in France are
being constructed in ratio to the
strength of the American forces
there.

MANAGER MCPHERSON TO VISIT CAPITAL IN INTEREST OF
 ALASKA LEGISLATION

SEATTLE, Feb. 2. (By maili--
 To cooperate with the Alaska delegation in securing legislation, and departmental attention, on is- sues vitally necessary to northern development, Marager J. L. McPher- son, of the Alaska Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce, will soon leave for Washington.
 Manager McPherson will render all aid possible in putting through required laws to permit of utilizin the natural resources of Alaska. The plan was endorsed by the board of trustees at the request of the executive committee of the Alaska Bureau.
 Facts have been compiled by the Alaska Bureau emphasizing the out standing needs of the North in the way of new legislation to. prmit proper development of Alaska's coal and oil deposits. Help will be fur nished in putting through Delegate Sulzer's measure providing a full territorial form of government for the North.
 The improvements of Dry Strait, and appropriations for government work in the North, continuing rail- road construction, road building, coast surveys, harbor improvements and other necessary developments, will be looked after.
 Attention will be called to need ed improvements to the mail service on a number of Alaska routes, regulations permitting the develop men of the paper pulp industry, and the settlement of agricultural lands in the forest reserves.
 Manager McPherson is armed with the latest facts showing the out standing needs of the northern dis tricts, and will work with the Alas ka delegation to secure necessary legislation, and cooperation from the interested departments.

fields to California is "a most hor- rible misuse of equipment. Although the Coast is an oil producing section, the astonishing statement is made that the supply has been drawn down by the war demand so that the. Southern Pacific railroad, which has long used oil burning locomo- tives, has been compelled to go back to coal on parts of it's system.
 Accordingly at this time Alaska finds outside support in appealing to congress for legislation to pro mote the development of these natural resources. The Alaske bur eau of the Seattle Chamber of Com morse and Commercial Club has adopted resolutions praying for the enactment of a policy that will en- courage the prospector and invite capital to open up the fuel regioGs on a scale commensurate with the prospect. Tn the East the idea pre- vails because the government Is constructing a railroad to one of the coal fields. that the problem is being solved. The government en- terprise will be useful, so far as it goes, but actually it does not touch the real problem. As for oil, Alaska imports thousands Of barrels annually for domestic consumption an extraordinary illustration of carry ing coals to Newcastle

The development of tho territory of Alaska is likely to be favored by the fuel crisis, if it is not too soon over or its effects are not quickly forgotten.
 Alaska. "the nations treasure house." has coal and oil, both in abundance, though little is beng taken out of 'he ground. The un- covered amount is not easy to cal culate, especially as to oil, the geo. logical signs of which require con firmation by actuGl drilling.
 Since the war began copper has passed gold as the territory's most valuable resource. The sudden need for the former metal in vast quanti- ties had promoted mining on an unprecedented scale. So the urg- ent call for fuel should give an im- petus to coal and oil development
 The whole country, particularly, of course, the Pacific coast, is keen ly interested in the Alaska prospect. The Coast now imports" coal from tho East. That is expensive, and be5ides coal is drawn from the Atlantic seaboard which might be wanted here in a pinch, either for local consumption or for shipping. And, as our experience this winter has warned us, efficient use of trans portation facilities may be a vital consideration. Chairman Peabody, of the coal production committee of the national council of defense, told a senate committee that ship- ping coal from the West Virginia

uprisings in behalf of conservation of the nations resources some years ago, has not since been resumed on anything approaching the former scale. The conservation laws called for a readjustment of methods, and the war caught us with the process scarcely begun.
 The other day the senate passed a bill to encourage and promote the mining of coal and oil on the public domain. Substantially the same bill has failed heretofre sev- eral times in the lastfew years be- cause the house and senate could not agree on certain details. They will now agree, because the condi- tions demand an immediate remedy. But apparently Alaska will not re ceiye much benefit from the legis- lation. Conditions in the territory require a specal policy.
 The difficulties and the risks of exploitation are manifestly greator there than in the public lands ot the states. The government of Brit ish Columbia, where conditions are similar, offers inducment to the prospector and capitalist which are proving highly effective The sys- tenn should have the consideration of congress. Some such policy might be grafted on the bill now in course of enactment or embodied in special Alaska act.
