C0TWALS NAMED REPLACE WAUGH
 ON COMMISSION

According to information received from the coast Lieutenant Colonel John C. Gotwals Of the engineer corps ot the regular army has been ap- pointed president of the Alaska board ot road commissioners, with head quarters at Juneau. Major W. Il. Waugh, the present president. will remain as a member of the board, report to Colonel Gotwals, Captain John Iug, member Of the board of Alaska road commissioners, has been directed to report at Fort Liscum for discharge.
 This is the first change in the Alaska board of road commissioners due to the work of demobilization of the national army The reserve of licers of the national army are being discharged as fast as regular army officers can be secured to take their places. All of them will be discharg- ed before July l next. Major Waugh and Lieutenant Sidney Carter, mem bers of the war department board of Alaska road builders, are officers in the national army, and will probably give way to regular army officers before that time,
 These changes do not mean that Alaska will lose these road builders, Major Waugh is also a highway engi- branch of the department of agri- culture, which, has charge of the ex- penditure of road moneys coming from the national forests and the cooperative road-building enterprises of the national government. This branch of the road building work in Alaska has a considerable fund at its disposal, and plans are already under way for the expenditure of some $220,000 on roads in the First and Third divisions of Alaska during the coming year.
 Captain John Zug and Lieutenant Carter were connected with the Al aska board of road commissioners before their appointment as reserve officers in the national army, in or der to qualify them for membership on the board Captain Zug was a civilian civil engineer in the employ of the board, and Lieutenant Carter was chief clerk of the board. They will probably retain their old posi- tions.
 Major Waugh is now in Washing ton on business in connection with Alaska road-building, and doubtless

GERMAN MONEY DESERTS FLAG, SAYS V0RWAERTS

BERLIN (P)- German capital has deserted the flag" says the Vor- waerts in a bitter comment on the decline in value of the German mark
 Numberless cases are occurring in which the German sellers do not al low payment of their wares In Ger many but establish accounts abroad which are exempt from taxation, de clares the paper To the damage of the German rate of exchange, con- tinues Vorwaerts, the German beg gar sells his rags in the world mar ket at what prices he can get and ignores the opportunities to get for eign moneys into Germany and thereby raise the mark.
 Capitalists who find tax evasion profitable refer to the German economic crisis with a shrug of the shoulders and lay the blame to the government and financial politics.
 The Vorwaerts states that German leather especially has been sold abroad at prices less than in Ger many and with no other object than to transfer the producers fortune to place where it will not be taxed For their own sakes several thou sand illegal traders and capitalists are robbing their country and com mitting a theft of food by driving prices upward" the paper charges.
 Thru pressure on the rate of ex- change German war bonds can be bought in Switzerland for ten marks and the loan is bought up in quan- titles by those who realize that Ger many must ultimately be given help and that the mark will rise.
 The purchaser of war loans will then make fifty per cent instead of five per cent on the investment"
 The newspaper declares that some means must be found for preventing the exportation of goods to foreign countries. It concludes with the statement that while the government is painstakingly spending 40,000,000 or 5O,0OO,OO0 marks for oils and fats, 400, 0,00O,O00 marks worth of French perfumes, soaps and modes have ar rived. The entente, says the paper, muSt realize that it is enCOura giQg German international illicit trade at a cost of German economic life.

NEWSY NOTES
 FROM NENANA

meeting held last night the Nenana townsite trustees discussed with EX- aminer Barndollar the matter of transferring the townsite offices from the fire hall building to the commis- sion telephone building It was ex- plained by the trustees that town site manager Schmidt, had been of much service to the Nenana fire de partment and his removal would | leave only one man at the fire hall 1 during the entire day and most of the night and at times would leave l plained that the transfer was in line with the reorganization of the com mission force for greater efficiency and stated that 1t was hardly possible to make any other arrangements in the matter He also stated that 1t

MINING IS NOW
 LOCKING UP IN TOL0VANA CAMP
SEVERAL OUTFITS ENLARGE OPERATIONS. NO NEW STRIKES REPORTED; BUSINESS CON TINUES GOOD; NEW TRAIL IS BIG ASSISTANCE

BROOKS, Alas, Jan. 1.-(By MaiD The month of December was not exceptional in any way. The wealth CT was fairly good. There was but
 one cold spell, it being of short
 duration and but very little wind The mining industry is improving some. Sampson and partner are now working ten shovelers. BostrOm and Wickstrom are increasing their crew also Kelly X O'Connor are about
 ready to begin tunnel work Lynn and partner are prospecting for an other block of ground on their lease. B. K. Johnson and Ben Dahl have a lease on the California fraction and
 are to begin work prospecting short ! ly
 The two prospecting outfits on
 Amy creek have found nothing more than prospects. Tony Corgan has
 traced the pay on Lucky Gulch above where Shippe, McCandlish & Heleay
 worked last summer The two out 1 fits prospecting below them have
 been unable to pick it up but are still working. No new strikes have been reported.
 Business is as good as could be expected and the merchants are not
 complaining Apparently they have
 not been disappointed in the volume of business handled during the win
 ter season.
 | The heavy snowfall has filled the trails and made travel somewhat diff ficult The road from Brooks to | Dunbar's is completed as far as will
 be done this winter Shortage of funds prevented it's full completion. It has already proven a great help
 in transportation for this district. Considerable game has been put on
 the local market during the open season which aided in keeping down the H C. of l. to some extent Moose,
 which was fairly plentiful, and some
 mountain sheep aided in filling the
 menus Moose sold at 35 cents and sheep at 50 cents per pound i There was one marriage here dur ing the month of eCember-William Kelly to Miss Elliott. A dance was given in honor of the newlyweds and
 almost the entire population was
 present. The camps material for
 marriages is about exhausted now.
 No sickness of any grave nature has
 been reported colds being the worst
 affliction.
 The Brooks hospital is being main tained by public subscription. Every
 one in the camp is chipping in the
 to the tune of $2O0 per month per person in order that the institution
 may be kept open.
