Soviet System at Stake.

BERLIN, Friday, January 81 (by the
Associated Press).-With the time for
the converting of the German national
assembly only six days off the political
situation has suddenly taken on an
aspect which must be considered men
acing to the government
While it is unlikely that any ATTEMPT
will be made to dispense the constitu-
ent assembly at Weimar, there will
probably be what amounts to a rival
parliament in session simultaneously
in Berlin. The Berlin meeting will be
a national congress of all soldiers
councils. called on the initiative of the
local councils of Berlin. ostensibly to
consider the question of retaining the
power of military command in the
councils.
Among those who have followed the
activities of the councils since the re-
cent revolt and particularly in the
last week there is little doubt, how
ever that the congress will afford
the spartacans, independent socialists
and other radicals an opportunity to
insist on the retention of the soviet
system, alone if possible, but, in any
event, as government department
having equal rights with any eventual
parliament or other governmental

FACTS ABOUT SEWARD

Seward is situated on Resurrection Bay, midway ot te coast line of the Gulf of Alaska and l6O miles 1roE' route of the Pacific steamers to the Orient
 The various trade routes of the North Pacific Ocean and all the roads and highways and trails and mountain passes from the interior converge at this point much as II nature had anticipated the need of gateway through which the trade and travel of great region might 1nd convenient passage
 The deep perfectly protected harbor presents an o6 long surface embracing forty square miles, upon which y ship that floats may sail in safety at any time, ana which in appearance suggests nothing so much as beaut ful inland fake.
 The mainland and shores of Resurrection supply am pe space and perfect topography for the building o city of whatever extent future needs may develops and ts CIT cumstance added to it's natural position as gateway to e interior and the freedom from ice at all seasons of the hb0r and adjacent waters lead the government to select is port as the terminal for the railroad The un limited coal and oil and mineral resources of Alaska W flow through this port to enter the commerce of the world and in return will the supplies for distribution over territory greater in extent than many state cOmbmed thus making it the great port c the North Pacific or the NEW YORK OF ALASKA.

for Building
Should Be Available,
Says Secretary Glass

Washington, Feb. o.-"No valid
reason now exists why sufficient
credit should not be made available
for useful building operations" said
Secretary Glass in a statement to-
day.
"The impression seems to exist,
he said, that policies initiated dur
ing the war by Secretary McAdoo
and by the federal reserve board for
the conservation of credit are still
fully effective and are responsible for
inactivity in the building trades. The
activities of the country have under
gone a great change since the sign
ing of the armistice and many COM
panies which are engaged in the pro-
duction of war material and for
which credits were essential are now
directing their energies to other
lines more nearly related to the
normal activities of peace.
consequently many of the pol
icies which were adopted to meet
war needs are now out of date. My
own impression is that inactivity in
the building trades is directly trace
able not to any insuficiency of credit
but to the continuance of abnormally
high costs"
