TWOAMENDMENTS TO CURRY BILL
 ARE SUGGESTED
Juneau Commercial Associa- ton Approves Principle
 Of Bill for Alaska.

I While endorsing heartily the prin- ciple of having an Alaska Develop ment Board as expressed in the Cur
 ry hhl now pending before Congress, the Juneau Commercial Association ! today adopted a resolution asking
 for certain amendments in the or
 iginal measure. These amendments ask for a membership of five on the proposed board instead of three and thct the present distribution of funds from public lands and other
 natural resources of the Territory remcin as it~now stands.
 The resolution as adopted was re-
 ported by John w. Troy, chairman of the Legislative Committee, who stated that it had been drawn up
 jointly by himself and J. c. Me
 Bride, the other member of the Committed The measure as intrc- duced by MT. Curry, stated MT. Trey,
 was merely tentative and was drawn
 up by the author to get the matter started with the idea that sugges-
 tions for improvment might be later !, incorporated
 :; The resolution follows in full: i Resolved, That the Juneau Con- I mercial Association heartily ap- proves the principle of the so-callsd Y Curry Development Board Bill, and 2 urges Congress to pass the measure 1 speedily, with such amendments as may be necessary to make it a work ]. able law; and to that end, be it ] further
 F Resolved, That the Juneau Com- .mercial Association suggests that the pending bill be amended in at least two particulars: CD We be- lieve the Development Board should consist of five instead of three mem bers, and that the Governor of AL aska, shoul dbe, ex-officio, one of the members so as to facilitate coop i eration between the Territorial and ] Federal Governments; and, CD we
 believe the Curry Bill should be amended so that none of the receipts from public lands and other natural resouces which already have been appropriated to uses within the f Territory, for road building and other purposes, should be diverted :. from the Territory and placed in the 1 proposed Alaska Fund to be sub I jected to further action by Con- gross; but urge that all of such re- ceipts, the disposal of which have not already been provided for, may ] be disposed of as provided in Sec i tion of the said Curry Bill; and \ be is further,
 4 Resolved, That the Secretary te 4 and he is hereby directed to notify l Alaska's Delegate in Congress, and I her DelegateElect, the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of l Commerce and various Alaska Com
 mcrcial organizations of this action.

WHY THE LUMBER SLUMP?

While wages in the building trades
have been advanced 200 to 800 per
cent over pre-war times, actual build
ing labor cost has gone up 400 per
cent and it requires twice as long to
build a house.
1t takes twice as many Carpenter
hours on e. job as it did five years
ago. Plastcrers, painters, paper
hangers do less than half the work
they did five years ago.
These conditions are not healthy.
They cannot but infiict disaster upon
those who foster them. Short-sight-
ed is the man who believes that he
can produce wealth by idling. The
war created u tremendous void in ma
terials and commodities of all kinds
end prices are high by reason of this
scercity.
Prices can only become lower when
the worlds storehouse has again
reached its normal level Cost OF
dwellings will depreciate to a marked
extent and rentals will be lower when
the men who build homes will do a
full days work ungrudgingly with
pride in the quality and quantity of
their output.
The unusual demands of artisans,
mechanics, and labor in all trades
has checked the demand for building
material and is severely hurtin the
lumber industry.

AMERICANS A BANKING PEOPLE

Early in life children should learn
habits of industry or they will ac-
quire habits of idleness.
One person out of five in the United
States has acquired the banking habit
The records show 2O,380.350 ac-
counts are carried on the books of
national banks alone.
Nearly half as many more had ac-
counts in state banks, savings banks,
trust companies, and building and
loan associations. War loan cam
paigns in the United States familiar
lied people with the function Of
banking, and they not only absorbed
billions of Liberty bonds and Victory
notes, but cultivated the habit of do
ing business with banks. That they
have increased their deposits therein
is development of high Significance.
Individual and demand deposits in
national banks foot up $13, 3,533,908,-
900. an increase of $1,701 ,129, 900
compared to the figures of year ago.
1t is encouraging that bank depos-
its should increase during a period Of
high prices and cxtravagant spending.

AiCONIMENDABLE PROGRAM

Some times people miss . good

not going to be good. That might
have been tho reason for SO email an
audience at the school auditorium
the other evening when the matrons
of the w. c. T. U. entered in q con-
test for a medal. As a matter of fact
the whole program was entertaining
and instructive. The beautifully dec
GRATED stage was worth the devotion
Of an evening to view. The numbers
given by the six contestants were
alone sufficiently interesting, instruc-
tive and amusing to be worth while
the time, and the beautiful panto-
mime by 4 half dozen young women
should not have been missed for it
was indeed beautiful pantomime
production. If we are of the be-
lief that the w. C. T. u, is dry in
everything VIC are mistaken.

Top-Notch Corn Cutting

COONER or later you will be ready Tor
~ another corn binder You may need
a new one this season. For maximum economy
and corn profit we recommend the Deering Corn
Binder. The Deering has done top-notch good
work in cornhelds for many years and the new
ones are improved to the present limit.
The Deering corn binder does satisfactory work
in all of corn cutting difficulties. The stalks
may be down and tangled; they may be toughened
by dampness; the field may be irregular but the
Deering will turn out good work it has done
in the past 1t is in the habit of leaving clean fields
and delivering evenly-butted bundles ready for
hooking or direct into the wagon over the bundle
elevator which is furnished when you desire.
You may have special tongue truck also with
the Deering and the bundle carrier as now i'm
proved operates so that the bundles are dumped
out of the way of the horses. The Deering is dur
able. The levers for controlling the adjustments
are in easy reach. 1t is well worth your while to
call and see the Deerng Corn Binder Don't
put this matter off. Be you ready for
the job
