Nhickaloon, where the Alaska Engi-
neer1ng Commission already has done
extensive development work. At pres
ent coal for naval uses has to bo trans
ported by rail from the Pocahontas
helds, IN West Virginia, to Pacific ports.
1t Is possible that naval base may
be established in Alaska near the coal
supply and that the navy may spare
some OF the coal it mines for COM
mercial coaling base in the Aleutian
Islands. which lie near the great circle
routes of trans-Pacitc shipping.
The navy is also watching with keen
interest development Of the Alaska pc
troleum fields, which is expected to ad-,
vance rapidly now that the mineral
leasing bill has become a law. The
Alaska oll-bearng regions have been
tied up for ten years, pending this
legislation, and only one small we'll in
the Katalla field was patented before
the embargo went into effect. 1t is
producing about fifty barrels day Of
pArafiine base oil, which is said to be
eexceued only by Pennsylvania petro-
leum
Already more than 1000 oil pros
Pectors are mobilizing at Seattle or
have left for the oil regions. Accord
ing to the geographical survey, one of
the known fields extends for more than
n hundred miles.
Besides being a potential contributor
toward solving the petroleum supply
problem, Alaska is about to contrib
ute to the worlds sugar supply. A
sugar company is planning to erect
beet sugar mill at some point on the
government railroad and contemplates
extending financial assistance to set
tiers who will enter into sugar beet
production contracts. Sugar bects

Colonel William Jennings Bryan is
to have his own little Democratic -Radi-

National Convention at the Aldine
Club, 200 Fifth Avenue, on his birth
day, next Friday night.
Indications multiply that the dinner
will be largely attended, and that Re-
publ'cans. Democrats, Progressives,
le-Taxers, Forty Fighters, Hoover
'tes, Socialists, believers and unbe-
irevers, will be present. Colonel Bryan
mas informed his local committee that
mis- theme will be "Beware the DAM
without the letter IN" in the word.
tour weeks ago the friends of Mr..

tlme was opportune for him to come to
New York. Even now they are some

about liquor, President Wilson and

Advices from Washington Indicate
that the break between Mr.. BRYAN and
President Wilson is wider than ever.
In his travelling to and fro across tho
country Mr. Bryan. his friends say. has
discovered that the President is stead
lily losing ground in blocking the rati~
fication Of the treaty. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Bryan will dwell at length on
the manifest duty of Congress to rati-
fy the treaty without delay. His New
York friends have kept Mr.. Bryan adj
yvised concerning the plan to make
Governor Edwards the Democratic can
d.datc for President, and he has kent
himself Informed about the attitude of
the Southern and Western Democrats
toward the attempt on the part of the
"wets" to obstruct the enforcement f

interesting and instructive talk on

The department OF justice issued
the following statement
/ The Communist party and the
Communist Labor party have for
their particular purpose the over
throw OF the present government of
the United States and the establish
ment of soviet form OF government
similar to that which now exists in
Russia. These two parties have af.
filiated with the Communist party Of
Russia. the leaders of which are
Lenine and Trotzky.
THE only difference between the
Communist party and the Commune
ist Labor party in this country is
one Of leadership. The two parties
have the same purposes and aims as
the Communist party OF Russia.
They are joined with the latter in ad.
vocating and supporting the mani
festo of the third international,
which openly urge an armed revo-
luton to bring about the overthrow
OF the government of the United
