SECRETARY OF WAR APPROVES.

The Secretary of War has recommended the appro- priaton of $900 900 for carrying on the work of the Alaska Road Commission in Alaska next year, which means he has approved the mlon-a-year program TOT road development in this Territory. The Road Com mission asked $955, ,00O from the Government but if the $9O0,0 900 is allowed the remainder of the amount necessary be made up for next year from ether sources This that Aaskans must now begin work on Congress They have the executive branch behind them.
 The question of the appropriation will probably next come up before the Military Affairs Committed of the Representatives Representative Julius Kahn Francisco is chairman of that committee He is friendly toward Alaska and has always freely given his and influence for Alaska road appro- priations. However in spite of this frendliness Of Chairman Kahn the fight for the appropriation may prove to be easy and there should be CO operation the part of all Alaskans in the matter
 Col. Steese will probably be called to Washington to present the matter to the Senate and House Com mittees Delegate 6srigsby will be the ob and, he and Col Steese, will doubt have the active assist ance of Gen. Richardson The Juneau Commercial Association has already passed resolutions endorsing the road program and urging the appropriation Other organizations should do likewise, and the people generally should write letters to individual Senators and Representatives in Congress in their behalf z

Interest on Postal Savings.
(NeW York Evening Post. ]

(New York Evening Post)
 The hearings before the Senate Committee Re construction, in regard to the proposal to increas the rate of interest postal savings deposits fror on somewhat complicated subjected The proposal based primarily on the opportunity which, it is sumed, such an increase would give for the absorp ton of outstanding United States bonds as tn investment medium for the much larger amount O deposits attracted by the higher rate.
 Up to given point, such a result would undoubt edly follow. The per cent. fixed befor the war, when United States Government bonds gay net much more than that return if bought on tn open market Today, the bonds yield the in vestor something between and per cent. At tho existing per cent rate, the postal savings systen has naturally not expanded during the present high money era. The total amount of deposits has tended to decrease rather than increase since the war, has never, we believe gone above O.OOO, 900.
 The estimate of Eugene Meyer of the War Financ Corporation that per cent rate would attrac enough new deposits within year to take up $2 500,0O0,000 of the Governments short-term ndebt edness, we regard rather wild assumption. Som increase, however, would certainly result, and tn, system as it stands may fairly be said not to b, functoning. There are counter considerations how ever, which bound to modify any proposal of tn. kind. One is, that the rate of yield on Governmen securities will not always remain what it is today If Liberty bonds advance, in due they will then the investment yield will decline proportion atey; yet, unless the rate to postal deposors is tt be altered at occasional intervals--an obectonab bl, pTactice-the Government would be pledged to pa, on new deposits more than the Postal Savings ser vice could earn by investing them. But it has alst been held unfair and undesirable to press the rate or postal savings too close to the rate which the exist ing State savings banks pay under the prope restrictions of the law. The communities will doubt less be at pains to hear all sides of the question iron competent authorities It is not matter for hast! impulsive decision.
