To Open Alaska
 Forest for Pulp
Restrictive Regulations of the For estry Service Said to Withhold Unlimited Material for the
 Manufacture of Paper

WASHINGTON-Congress will act soon to release to. American print paper manufacturers the great forests of Alaska, said Rep resentative Curry, chairman of the house territories committee. The acute shortage in print paper makes such action necessary, he explained.
 With a practically unlimited and inexhaustible supply of good print paper wood in Alaska, there is no excuse for print paper short age in the United States" he said.
 F. H. Flory, superintendent of the forest reserve service of Alaska, according to dispatches from there states:
 Alaska has enough timber to furnish half the news print paper of the United States for all time to come and with proper care the industry can be made everlast- ing" He expects congress to remove restrictions which block the way to paper mills plans.
 "The trouble is not with con- gress," said MT. Curry. If it were, congress would not delay in correcting it. The trouble is with the forestry service and its restrictive regulations. No sane American business man would in- vest the large sum of money necessary for the establishment of paper mill in Alaska with the forestry service reserving the right to change the charges for the raw material every three, five or seven years. These regu- lations must be rev;sedand liberal ized and American development must be encouraged in Alaska. "

THE RIGHT MEDICINE

Many writer's and people OF ma
tional prominence, including Presi-
dent Wilson. have often asserted
that the only successful way to meet
bolshevism and stamp it out is to
give the people an abundance Of
food and keep them well clothed; in
fact the president said that was the
only way Russia could be won over
from the Red terror.
Recent developments have proven
the assertion a fallacy. Bolshevism
is not condition produced by hun
ger; 1t Is condition of the mind
all the fault is in the head-and Ole
Hanson of Seattle has shown the
people how to meet the menace. Those
Seattle Reds were not hungry. They
had fat Jobs. And over in Russia
where looting. arson and wholesale
murder are the daily pastimes with
the Reds, there is an abundance of
food among the bolshevik forces in
most Of the districts-food stolen
from the helpless-there being so
much butter in some localities that
soldiers are using it for boot grease.
The way to wipe out bolshevism
is to give their teachings and acts
pitiless publicity and follow Mayor
Hanson's example. The disease is
in the head, not the belly.
