INDICATION IS
 GOOD FOR GOLD
 BOUNTY SCHEME

LEEHEY IN LETTER TO COVER
 NOR RIGGS SAYS THAT PROS
 PECTS FOR BONUS ON NEW
 GOLD PRODUCTION ARE EX-
 CEEDINGLY BRIGHT NOW.
 JUNEAU. Alaska Maurice D. Lee hey, special counsel for the Terri toriM shipping board, writing 10 Gov Thomas Riggs, Jr., says the indica- tions are good for the payment of a bounty 10 the producers of virgin gold to be brot about by placing a tax on all gold used in the arts and manufacturers and the payment of the proceeds to the miners.
 MT Leehey writes to Gov. Riggs
 The Alaska Bureau has a report from Mir. Mooers upon the gold con ference al St Louis, and will give its aid to the organization there ef- fected. Prospects seem fairly en- couraging for bounty on virgin gold production to be paid out of the pro ceeds of a manufacturers tax on gold used in the arts and manufacturers This is something to which our ener- gies should be bent, for can imagine nothing that would be more immedi- ately effective in restoring the pros perity of the territory than some pro. vision to yield the producers of vir. gin gold an increased price for it ir some manner commensurate with the increased cost of production.

MANY FORTUNES

 IN WAR PERIOD

CARDIFF. Wales (Py-Quick for tunes and knighthoods are the pres ent day products of South Wales, says a special correspondent of the Daily Express He cites numerous examples of rapidly acquired wealth and honors in Cardiff which now boasts about 25 millionaires. To be accounted millionaire in Wales, 1t should be understood, one must posses not $1,0OO,OOO but $5,OOO,OOO
 Ships are the golden argosies of Cardiff, not the stately liners that carry passengers across the Allan tic, but numbering tramps, many of them ancient and rusty. Freight rates are high, says the correspondent, and shipping men are raking in fortunes One can meet many men in Cardiff who before the war were clerks at small salaries and now have big motor cars, wives with furs and da- monds, and country houses
 One man in Cardiff who sailed the seas as a pilot five years ago put his savings into q ship and now can write his check for $2,5OO,O0O. A small tradesman invested $1,O0O in a ship and received $30,O0O for his interest two years later A man who held a small clerkship in ship ping office before the war came un- expectedly into windfall of $2O.000 He invested it in a shipping com pany and now has sold his interest for $5OO,OO0
