ton of the officials to this phase OF
the situation and suggest that their
usual prompt efforts be made to stop
this practice.
We have verified the bank balances
of the different Parish officials and
find all balances to be correct.
We have inspected the Parish Jail
and find It to be kept in sanitary
condition. We fnd that the court
house is clean and we'll kept.
We intended to examine the roads
which are now being constructed but
decided not to do that in view of the
fact that the president of the Police

fined to his home by illness.
We have no further recommends
tions to make and ask Your Honor to
discharge us subject to call.

WORK IS SAVING THE DAY.

Secretary Herbert Hoover declares that I've have turned the in the business depression Speak ing al luncheon rendered him by Mayor Andrew J. Peters Boston, MT. Hoover said we have turned the because have given up speculation and wasteulness and people gaining more eff ciency and interest in their work" He declared that labor is 20 per cent. efficient than it six months ago. He said the crops would be produced this year cheaper than have been the ar- nual crops for ten years because the farmers have put in effort, worked longer hours and use their old machinery to greater extent He pre- dcted that the result would be further reduction of living cost.
 Mr Hoover says the first essential in the effort of America to protect her exports which have been falling off at rapid rate is to reduce. the cost of production home and improve in every way pos sibe the quality of product. The United States will hold her trade he if she will produces better articles cheaper than other countries do it. We have got to put backs into tasks he said, if to hold markets and at the time hold higher living standards and higher wages.
 Which, after all, is another way of saying that in work, hard work, is the solution of the problems that confront the people. Mr. Hoover believes the American people beginning to this and are responding to that conception of the need

Indeed many communities long ago school, because it considered important make parents and children realize that completion of the elementary school course in constitutes an education. Reorganization of the whole scher of education the junior high school basis, with an elementary school of only six years has still further reegated the old elementary school graduation point where it is merely episode in longer period of combined elementary and secondary training

PRESIDENT sHATTUCK's REPORT.

The annual report of President Allen Shattuck of the Juneau Commercial Association makes very pleasant showing for that organization and it's ac- tiyes during the year that has passed, and his sug- gestions for the future progressive and busi- nesslike.
 Mir Shattuck hits the nail the head when he suggests that first duty of the commercial organi- zations of Alaska, including the Juneau Commercial Association for future is to do everything pos sibe to attract capital Alaska. As he very truly says Following capital will come labor, commerce, internal trade and development of local industries and the building up of a permanent population
 The closing paragraph of MT. Shattuck's report graphically presents the situation as it confronts the business men of Juneau the present time It says
 There is greater need for persistent, az
 gressive action by the Association during the
 coming year than there might have been
 if business conditions were particularly good
 We in formative condition as re-
 gards development of the Territory. We have
 apparently the attention of the National Ad-
 mnistration, and I believe we are on the
 eve of realizing of our long cherished
 hopes We have fought through the trying
 times of the period and the still more
 trying times of the two years that followed
 without losing hope. We have emerged from
 a period black ink into the twilight,
 and believe the bright sunshine of pros
 perty is just ahead. Let's keep going.
 It is pleasing to note in this connection that the Juneau Commercial Association gave President Shat tuck and the other officers of the Association very emphatic endorsement by unanimously reelecting all of them who would permit the of their names again The endorsement deserved It earned by honest efficient patriotic services to Juneau and Alaska.
