BAKER SAYS NATION
 HAS RIGHT TO KNOW

WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 12.- Continuing his testimony today, be- fore the senate Investigating com mittee, Secretary of War Baker said, in reply to the charge that he had lulled the country into a feeling of security when actual conditions did not warrant such feeling, that he believed the country was entitled to feel secure. When the facts are known" continued, "the country will feel secure"

STEEL MOVES FORWARD
 AS WEATHER MODERATES

Considerable work was accomplish ed by the Alaskan Engineering con- struction gang during the week, the more moderate weather having en- abled the men to push forward to the trestle, two miles and one-half north of Twenty-Mile. The work of driving the trestle was completed couple of days ago and the struc- ture is now decked, ready for steel.
 Beyond the trestle, the grade is glaciered to some extent, but it is believed that no serious delay in extending the track will result in consequence. The main require ment at present is favorable weather, low temperature doing more to re- tard the work than any other handi- cap.

NENANA|IES URGED
 ID CONSERVE FOOD

4 food saving campaign has been inaugurated in Nenana, the purpose of which is to economize in the use of certain articles of food in order that the burden of supplying Alaskans with provisions may rest more lightly upon the nation. The campaign was started by the Food Saving com mittee of the local Council of De- fense, the first step being the dis tribution of placards requesting Nenanaites to cook potatoes with their jackets" on.
 This committee also has decided that the best interests of the com munity demand economy in the use of sugar and butter, and housewives, restaurant owners and those in charge of Commission messhouses are urged to observe rigidly the but terless and sugarless meals which have been suggested. Pledges are now being circulated, the signers of which promise neither to serve nor eat butter between the hours of II a. m. and p. m. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday of each , week" They promise also neither to serve nor to eat sugar between the hours of II a. m. and p. m. on Tuesday, Thursday and Satur- day" The signers further pledge themselves to cook potatoes before peeling.
 The Alaskan Engineering commis- sion has taken the initiative and will observe the sugarless and butterlesS hours hereafter at all mess houses in this division. Potatoes also will be cooked with their jackets" on Pledges are to be circulated among the restaurant owners of the towr and the matter of appealing to house wives for cooperation has beer placed in the hands of the Friendly society, through Mrs. F. S. Ryus president of the organization. i The Food Saving committee, in ad dition to deciding upon the above mentioned curtailment of food con. sumption, sent a telegram to Judge Gunnison, of Juneau, who represent: the food administration in Alaska requesting that the game law, a: applied to male animals, be sus pended until the end of March. Sim liar action, it is understood, has al ready been taken by the Fairbank: council.
 The food economies suggested by the committee will be followed, from time to time, by other suggestion: along similar lines, and it is urged by the members that the people o1 Nenana give their earnest support to the movement.

CLUB SENDS WIRE
 URGING NEW ROAD

The Broad Pass wagon road ques- ton was the chief subject discussed by the Nenana Commercial club, at its meeting held last Sunday, the discussion resulting in the appoint ment of a committee consisting of Herman Anderson, Carl Schmidt and Townsite Manager Ryus, to com municate with Commissioner Thos. Riggs, Jr. for the purpose of secur- ing his cooperation.
 Mayor Ryus informed the club that he had taken the matter up with Commissioner Mears, upon his ar rival at Anchorage, and was assured by the major that the project would receive the support of the commits sion on the coast end of the rail- road, providing sufficient funds were available for the work. Such road as is proposed, MT. Ryus pointed out, would be necessary to carry on the railroad building between Liz nite and Indian river, and he ex pressed the belief that Mir. Riggs would heartily approve the plan to construct the road immediately if the necessary funds can be obtained.
 Stephen Foster appeared before the club with the request that sup port be given to his plan for releas- ing Alaskan game for consumption throughout the year. He proposed the licensing of hunters, each one taking out license to give bond as a guarantee against the killing of female animals and the waste of meat.
 Mir. Foster informed the club that he was going to Fairbanks to take the matter up with the the commer- cial club of the upper town and while there he expected to have a bill drafted, covering his suggestions. He said that he would send copy of the bill to the local club, and action was deferred pending the re- ceipt of the copy. Later it was de- cided to refer the game question to .. the council of defense.
 The club also referred the eight hour question to the council of de- fense, the matter having been brought to the attention of the club by the Anchorage Chamber of Com merce, which recently took action urging the governor to suspend the law.
 E. J. Hutmacher told the club of the organization of 8 company which purposed to engage in the brick making business and requested that the members give their moral sup port to the enterprise. Later on, he said, the stock of the company would be offered for sale.
 MT. Hutmacher said that large body of high grade clay had beer found close to the railroad, about three miles south of Nenana and he produced partially burned sample: of brick, to show the possibilities o1 such an industry. The company vii De known as the Nenana Clay Pro ducts company.
