Washington, Jan. President Will

nounced u the White House that his
signature had been attached before last
midnight.
Secretary Tumulty, in making the an
neuncement, issued this statement:
The president has signed the sugar
control bill. The bill confers discretion
~ the president in the matter Of pur-
chasing sugar from Cuba. 1t is doubtful
whether it will be practicable or wise
for the president to exercise the power
conferred, so far as the purchase and
distribution of sugar are concerned"
Some Of the Cuban sugar has already
been purchased and there is no central
control over sugar in Cuba, as there
was last year, and it might therefore,
be impossible for the government now
to step in and purchase the sugar without
increasing the price to the consumer.
The bill, however, continues the
profiteering among distributors. Much
Cuban sugar is coming in now and the
indications are that prices have reached
their peak and that there will be q ten
dency for prices to fall in the next few
weeks.

VETS AWAITING 1922

The vets will make their great stand two years from now, in the opinion of the men who have to do with the politics of prohibition--in the congressional elections of 1922
 The question for that assumption is this: A decennial census has just been completed. New congressional reappointments are made after ev- cry census. The census of 1920 has shown a large increase in urban, or city, population. The chances are that the new opportionment for the mem bership of the House of Representa- tives will increase the number of members from the city districts at the expense of the members from the

It is a fur ther source of qualification that ne will take his umbrella and rubbeys and his old-fashioned victoria and re- move himself from the realms of Post Office life within a few short weeks.
 Shutting Off Immigration
 Congress is clamping the lid down on indiscriminate immigration, and the flood of foreigners who have been rushing to our shores is to be checked for a year at least. The immigration to be admitted will come here under very stringent regulations, the chief of which will be that they will join rel atives who are already American citi- zens. Here we have a condition where our own citizens stand as sponsors for foreigners who are permitted to land upon our shores. Obviously the prop CT thing to do is to close the ports of the United States to immigrants until conditions in this country have resum- ed sormal status. Then they can be opened upon terms which will insure the admission of only those foreigners who come with high respect for the American Government and its institut- tions and with a desire to become American cifizanc

shoes and stockings.
 Out of the war labor has progressed and fact that higher rate of ser vice is demanded by the public than ever before has created 3 demand for competent labor, which in turn de mands salaries and wages commensur- ate with the service that 1t renders. You have in these facts basic eondi- tion which the American public not on- iy accepts, but which it has made and insists upon keeping. In these firm ly established relations there are found reasons which everyone has recogniz- ed as well as various reasons why prices of all kinds must remain high CT than in past years.
 Strictly Behind the Times
 A number of different states are en deavoring to perpetuate cheap rail- road fare. The administrative and ie- gal authorities of all states know that Congress assumed government con- trol of the railroads is passing the transportation act by which the roads were returned to private ownership. There is no question that Congress had this right, and it was step that was taken after dozen of violent dis cussion. In order to carry out this This power was conferred in such a manner as to meet all the obstructive obecjtions that had been urged in the past by different states. Therefore the attempts of number of states to perpetuate a cheaper rate within their borders than rates in effect in adjoining states is merely the resur- rection of an effort that was made de- funct when the present railroad law was enacted. These efforts to secure | favoriteism do not contain any ele- l ment that is new, and the courts pass ed upon these questions so long ago that Congress had so difficulty what ever in thoroughly fastening the loose buttons when federal control was made a fact. The theory of the relations between the railroads and the govern ment is simple enough, since it merely contemplates an absolute equal basis of rates for all people in all states. with favors for none, so arranged that the net returns will pay to stockhold- CTS of American railroads a percent age upon their investments equal, and not greater, than that which big and little industries and mercantile estab- lishments demand as their compensa- tion for doing business.
 Another Burles0nesque Exhibit The report of Postmaster General Burleson for the fiscal year 1920 shows deficit of ST, 270,4S2, the sec ond largest deficit ever known in the Post Office Departmest. Mir Burleson planes the deficit upon Congress, claiming that it was due to the war bonus paid to Post Office employees under Congressional order. In effect, Burleson wanted the Post Office em- ployes of the country to work for wa ges that meant starvation, and when Congress had the good sesse to rule otherwise, Burleson lacked the gray matter necessary to put his house in order to meet the new conditions.

 In the Panama valley there are thou sand of acres of country which IS suitable for grazing purposes. A s1m- liar condition exists in the Matanus- ka district. It is question whether stock sufficiently hardy can be se- cured to stand the severe winters without requiring heavy feeding ex- penses. It it is necessary to cure and store feed for the animals for several months each year, the industry Will hardly thrive on account of heavy feed bills incurred.
 It is the belief of those most active Iy concerned in the matter that the average feed bill, however, will exceed but little, if any, the cost of feeding on the western ranges. Horses have been turned out over the winter in the Tan ana Valley and have come through in good shape without any feeding except what they were able to forage. The snowfall there is not excessively heavy and the growth of native grass es for hay is luxuriant and the hay of superfine quality. Dairy stock owned by the farmers of the Fair banks district do we'll on it.
 Stock raising on a commercial basis, however, has never been tried out i'll the district. Opinion as to it's success is about evenly divided, but it is noticeable that men best posted on the care and growing of cattle are among those who believe in the poss- ibility of establishing the industry in interior Alaska. At any rate, the ex- pertinent is one we'll worth trying and success will add greatly to the ever growing list of the territory's mater ia1 resources and industries. Empire.
