SALMON PACK WILL BE SMALLER THIS
 YEAR THAN LAST
All Packers Prepare for Ligh.
 Pack; Some Canneries May Not Operate at All

Word came from the south that practically all of the canneries in Southeastern Alaska will reduce their pack this year from one third to one half normal capacity, and, it is re- ported that several of them will not be operated at all.
 The canneries that usually put up from 10000 to 80,0O0 cases, it is said. plan on from 500OO to 6O,000 cases this year. and those which usually put 100000 or more are planning on only 10000 or S0.000.
 The vanguard of the cannerymen are already coming north. Dan Campbelrs Astoria and Puget Sound cannery organization is already on the ground. and H. l.. Simonds and c. J. Alexander of the Hoonah pack ing Company. with canneries at Hoo nah and Gambler Bay. are expected North soon Others will be coming on nearly every boat from the South.
 The failure of the canned salmon market. and the inability to sell all the 1919 pack is the cause for the preparations for light pack this year

URGES DEVELOPMENT BOARD FOR ALASKA AS MEANS OF GIVING
 TERRITORY RELIEF FROM RED
 TAPE SYSTEM OF WASHINGTON
Secretary Lane Says Time Has Come When Reserva- tions Must Be Removed.

WASHINGTON, D. c. Morch l. Franklin K. Lane, the retiring Sec retary of the Interior, in his part ing report to President Wilson de clares official Washington is com bination of political caucus, draw ing room and civil service bureaus containing statesmen who are poll ticians and politicians who are not statesmen, and is poorly organized for its task. He says that fewer men of larger capacity could per form the official tasks much bet ter for the nation than under the present system.
 Secretary Lane says the con struction of the government rail road in Alaska and the opening oi Alaska lands by leasing system are among the aims and accomplish ments of his administration.
 He says Alaska is hampered by too much red tape in Washington which is a static policy of many government bureaus. He declares Alaska should be administered by a federal board with headquarters in the territory, that the territory should be- poIFccd by asponstabulary sisuiiar.ta, .tha snesl. -ip-sscr tssertern Canada, and that Alaska should have her coast made safe for navi- gation by liberal appropriations for lighthouses and other aids for mar iners.
 He also urges the importation of the Canadian musk OK as source of future meat supply. He asserts that the musk OK and the raindeer both thrive in the same locality ow- ing to their seeking different food and believes they will furnish a new supply of meat for the Pacific coast
 Secretary Lane says the oil leasing bill should help to reduce the high cost of living by reducing the price of oil, coal, gas, phosphate for ferti- lizer, by increasing the production of these raw materitls.
 It is expected that the royalties from the oil and coal lands will reach a total of ten million dollars yearly.
 Secretary Lane says the act is d radical departure from old mining laws as it retains title of the land for the, government and enables pros- pectors. to work without the heavy initial cost of buying the land.
