EXTRA MAIL
 SHIPMENTS AUTHORIZED

The novesnen. to Nome of a large accumulation of second class mail matter now at Unalakleet has been authorized 9by the Postofiice Depart ment, according to q mid-week an- nouncenent by Postmaster J. J. Walsh. The mail in question is mat ter withheld from earlier delivery by reason of the weight lhni. of 800 pounds per trip on the Nome-Unala kleet run. Such accumulation is practically inevitable as long as the presen. low weight limit is maintain ed. Mails arrive at Unalakleet twice a week. with the bulk of matter con- tained destined for Nome and other points on the Nome run. whereas the service between Nome and Unalakleet is confined to one trip a week, with a weight limit too low to permit car riage of the amount received q. the latter point. The result is congestion which can seldom be cleared up save by special authorization.

SECOND CLASS MAIL
 IN TUESDAY

A big batch of mail from the States all second class, and d sprnkling of AL aska first and second class matter ar rived Tuesday afternoon in charge of Carrier Curran.
 The arrival of the dispatch one day earlier than usual was the resul. of certain changes in the mail schedule beyond Unalakleet, according to Post master J. J. Walsh. Under the earlier schedule, mails formerly ar arrived at Unalaklee. twice aweek but the service on the lower Yukon has been reduced to one trip week at present. As a result of this change the weekly mail leaving Nome must depart for Unalakleet not later than Wednesday morning to make connec- tons with the mails bound up The Yukon.

INDICATIONS POINTS TO SPRING
 RUSH TO ALASKA

Widely prevalent hard times on the Outside, combined with other condi- tions which render residence in the States not particularly inviting at present, will probably contribute to tringing about q rush of large dimen- sions toward Alaska next Spring. ac- cording to Jack Young. manager of the LindebergCole fishing plant on Col ovin Bay. who writes from Seattle to local friends that he understands that the spring Victoria reservations were all taken up in the latter part of Jan- uary and the company considering placing an additional passenger the first traffic.
 Conditions are sure tough out here," he says. Thousands of idle men all over the country and many failures are beginning to show up. Many fainilies are commencing 70 suf- fe from the pinch of poverty. From all indications business failures are going to be quite numerous before long. All lines Of business have start : ed cutting down their forces one half or more: Many indications point to a big s.ampede to Alaska next Spring, as there are no attractions for work ing people out here. Big wages are no more and employment is difficult to find anywhere. Wages are cut on an average of 25eo in all lines on Jan. uary I. Living has also come down in good many lines. especially in foods. Clothing and shoes still seem high as compared to pre- war levels but they are down a lot from what they were. The quality is still poor, however, as the goods now on the market were all trade in the war rush days and are more or less inferior.

COST Of ARMAMENT
MEETING IS STUDIED

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-While
replies were awaited to disarmament
conference invitations, the admins
tration today made its first survey
of the probable financial cost of
the meeting. The estimates Cunsid-
cred were entirely tentative, Conclu-
sions being delayed pending more
definite formulation OF the confer
ence plans to themselves. 1t was
indicated, however, that an addition
al appropriation of perhaps two or
three hundred thousand dollars
might be requested soon of congress.
The subject was discussed, so as
present information would permit, at
Harding, Director General Dawes of
the budget and Jnder-Secretary
Fletcher of the state department.
who has been placed in charge of
physical arrangements for the con-
ference. No announcement follow
ed and it was said that further CON
situations would be held later.
Press dispatches rejecting uncer-
tainty abroad as to who will pay
the expenses of the delegations of
other powers here failed to draw
any statement of policy from this
government, but it has been appar-
ent since the conference negotiations
began that the United States was
making no preparations to assume
liability for such expenditures.
So far as the financial plans have
progressed they are said to provide
only for such expenses as may be
incurred by the American delegates
themselves and by the conference
as a whole under such headings as
printing, office space for general Of
ficials of the conference, and the
preparation of data for general use

Supreme Court to Be
Asked to Declare the
Japanese White Race

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. - The
United States supreme court will be
asked to declare the Japanese a
white race, and thus entitled to
American citizenship, it was learned
here today.
The request will be made, it was
said, in the case known as Tako
Ozawa versus the United States, in
which the petitioner is seeking to
establish his right to become a nat
uralized American.
OzaWa will be represented before
the court by George w. Wickersham,
former attorney general.
Mr.. Wickersham, it was learned,
will argue that the root stocks and
dominant strain of the Japanese race
are white; that the inhabitants of
Northern Japan are mostly descend
ents of the Anus and in the south
of the Yamatos. Both of these are
said to be caucausian, the latter be-
ing Of mediterranean stock.
OZaWa will attack that section of
the federal statues prohibiting citi-
zenship for the monaghan race. Mr..
Wickersham, it was sand, will adj
nit there are Monaghan and Malayan
types among the Japanese but will
contend that the race as a whole is
white.

make the mistake of endeaVoring to
overthrow the SoVietS or even to dis
place Lenine, who is tenderly loved
by the people and whose suppression
would throw the country into terrible
civil war with pogroms and anarchy
reigning.
The reports of Lenine's declining
popularity and his differences with
Trotzky are inventions. This over
worked man, who is now taking a
vacation near Moscow, is deeply at
tached to Trotzky, and has named
hundreds of villages for him.
Only international intercourse can
save Russia. Do not those who are
quarreling over Turkey, upper Siles-
sia war criminals and sanctions no
tice that the invalid is rising from
the couch? Russia is ready to recog-
nize the czar's debts. Russia can be-
come Frances friend and bulwark
against the remilitariZation of Ger
many. Furthermore, the great prob
lens in the Pacific cannot be solved
without taking Russia into account.
Therefore the duty of statesmen on
their pilgrimage to Paris and to
Washington is to help Russia to re-
cover.

DEMOCRATS To De i
BOUNCED FROM JOB
The Atlanta journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Insisting
this administration has been more
lenient than the Wilson administra-
ton in permitting United States
marshals and attorneys of opposite
political faith to continue in office,
Attorney General Daugherty has def
initely outlined the policy of the de-
partment of justice in calling for res
ignations of such officials.
Mr.. Daugherty is willing that such
offices shall have been under Demo-
cratic control for eight years before
the Democratic officeholder ~ is
bounced, but he does not intend to
let marshals and district attorneys,
appointed late in the Wilson admin
istration, stay in office until their
commissions expire. 1t is a mistaken
idea, says MrA Daugherty, that he
intends to allow all Democrats to
serve out their terms.
This announcement of policy came
in a letter to Senator Overman, OF
North Carolina. who protested be-
cause the attorney general had asked
for the resignation of Charles A.
Webb, United States marshal, OF
Asheville. Mr.. Overman asked why
although the belief was that Demo-
Gratis would be permitted to serve
out their commissions.
Il note what you say concerning
some publicity which has been Civ
en- writes Attorney General Daugh-
erty in reply, that I intended to per
init all Democrats serve out thelE
terms as prescribed in their commits
sions. This is in error, as my pol.
icy has been under general circum-
stances to permit the offices OF
United States attorneys and mar
shals to remain under Democratic
control for eight years, starting with
the original appointment under tho
Wilson administration.
However, these have not been
the circumstances in some cases, al
in this particular office 1 have
thought the department would b
best served by having some one j.
the office of marshal who is in fui
sympathy with the policies of tt"
present administration, and for tina
reason I have requested Mr.. Webb
resignation.

in the line of practical accomplish

These considerations, however,
should not be taken as indicating
that the administration, and notably
Secretary Hughes, are not fully con-

meeting under very favorable aus
pices. Washington, it is known, is
felt to be free of the prejudicial at
