SOLDIER BONUS IN ALASKA

Nationally auRd in every state fhAre has been much agitation for months to pay q bonus to the men who served sn the military and naval forces of the country duraag the sreat war, In r.la,r states the legislatures with ort nu'h ado granted substantial bonr,ses t, the r''rrned seu~1ce men. In ,tAcr states the matter was put up .o the vooers in the form Of referendMn end everywhere the measure prevailed and with nfennendous Enajorftics. And indications gre that the next lEltioaal administration will akso grant bonuses to the soldiers.
 These ac.s by the states are only resultrs of am awakened national conscience. While the men gave eNe1yxhing for flag and country those at hosn,a reaped large rewards in in- cresrsed earnings and in prosperity so that tlle granting of bonus to a soEd6er cannot be considered in the Night of charity. It Is more nearly the paying of debt. for 1t was a rank unEArness for the men to make every eaeuifice for those at home while the isrtter reaped the rewards.
 There will be Q session of the legis- lature before many months and under no circumstances should that body fan to make provision for the Territory Of Anaslua to repay it's men who wen, to light for the saavation of the world. Thlsre is no question that such meas- ,Ae would prevail In 1iasAa at an eaec- ton as 1t did dn all the states. 50 that no tthne need be waistsd in pu6dny !. i'm fo sy,e VII <v,r :'''- 'r 'ri '.- r'

ROTTEN POSTAL SERVICE

There Is something the matter with the postal s@vssce sn southern Alaska but every newspaper publisher knows, to his sorrow. that he1se as no use asking for an Improvement under the present mahtfmintsurauon.
 If anyone can give a reason why a letter mailed in Ketchikan Oct. 10 should not be delivered dnere until Oct. 2s. or why letter should take 2s days to come frum Juneau, the Miner would Ike to hear it. On Oct :. 10 :l Ketchk3tan canslfdRte for ofIice mailed the Miner the copy for an ad- vert tisement to run two issues preced- ing the haection. This was mailed in plenty of time to have reached this paper for the first Issue specified, but w:,s held up ns mentioned above. The paper loses a piece Of change and the cantmdnEe loses the benefit which would have nccsned to }xtm through the advertisement.
 Running up against this kind of a proposition caused the writer to look at the dates on tihe other letters re- cefved in the same mail, and the whole bunch showed that there Rs marked sDeffkdency sosmewhere. For example there wtte seven letters from Juneau with dates as follows: Oct. l, 2. ?, 5, Il. 20 and 20 These dates are tho pustnnar1xs on the envelopes. One can understand tina. a letter might be de- layed by the sender packihE tt around in his pocket and forgetting to mail It. but after the letter is in the postof fee and stamped with the name of the office. there is no excuse for it's talk ing 2s days to come from Ju,eau tc Hyder nor IS days to come from ket- chikan. A reply should be received "a a letter. addressed to Europe in a month. '
 We noticed the other day Ina. the pSiitor Of the Valdez Miner was apOl- nRising to the postal department for former abuses. -Ie took it all back on tlsa ground that he had neceived g letter from Texas which was only 47 days on .he road.
 The Miner las had a nurnbe- of kicks regksared by outside suEscrib- CTS because of delays in receiving the paper. If theee impatient ones will will find an excuse 1m se1re delays- tAnt ls providing thfs Issue, reaches them betore they have died of old aee.--The Hydr MtDsr. o 's

MEXICO CITY
 CUSTOM HOUSE
 TO OPEN TODAY
Action Will Relieve Conges- ton And Obviate Long
 Delay In Shipments.

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 30.-The Mex ico City custom house will open Jan uary 1, after having been closed near ly seven years, in order to help re- lieve the freight congestion which at present threatens to tie up many partment, in ordering the opening to- day, issued a statement saying that goods may be transferred direct from steamships at Vera Cruz and Tampi- co to Mexico City, where they will be inspected thus obviating long delays tat the ports
 The departments action is one of the steps being taken to clear up traffic conditions which have become so serious that a committee repre- senring all the foreign chambers of commerce in Mexico City now is in Vera Cruz making an investigation with the view of recommending radi- cal measures to start the freight moving Business i'll Mexico City and other inland towns has been se- riously hampered for months as a re- suit of the freight tieup in Vera Cruz, which originated when the steve dOe~s and longshoremen went on strike. Settlement of this strike, however, has had no apparent effect on the congestion, and thousands of tons of freight have been lying eith- CT in the harbor or on the wharves for months.
 Several weeks ago it was stated authoritatively that 100000 tons of freight had not been moved Tor months and that this amount had been added to, rather than decreased. In. some instances Mexico City mer- chants have been forced to suspend various lines because of the lack of stocks here. although there are plen- tiful stocks held up in Vera Cruz One merchant asserted that he had been unable to move anything to Mex ico City since last July. An inter- change of freight cars at border points through an arrangement with the American Railway Association It is believed here, will offer material aid in the emergency.

be maintained on a constantly ascend ing scale during 1921 is a matter of conjecture. at least until Germany is , given precise and definite interpreta tion of the financial and reparation clause of the treaty.
 Germany enters the new year with national debt which will far exceed 200, ,000, 100000 marks by April 1 next This sum does not include amounts she is called on to pay her own sub jects in private claims They will add another hundred billion to the above total. The government admits a railway postal and telegraph defic- it of 20.s00. 900, 900 marks. It is threatened with huge increase in the public payroll. Its domestic bud gets generally have vaccillated so freely in the course of presentation to the reichstcg that they no longer of fer q tangible basis but merely andy tical computations.
 Her paper deluge" at the begin ming of the year is generally suspect ed of being well in excess of S0.000- 000,000 Germany is paving out bill lions monthly for food purchases abroad and these will continue well into the new year owing to the made quacy of the last harvest. Wheat thus bought is paid for in foreign eX- change
 The labyrinth of deficits and bill lion-mark expenditures is in chao- tic state with revenues which are to a large extent on paper or are arbi- trarily estimated The governments financial policies thus far have bsen wholly inadequate to cope with the confusion prevailing in the nations eXchequer. None of the measures in it's expensive system of taxation is operative andNthe fate of the national emergency. sacrifice levy. which is tantamount to confiscation of capital and private fortunes, also is in abey- ance.
 The governments delegates to the. recent Brussels conference returned. in a happy frame of mind.

 STILL MAKING WAR MUNITIONS
France Will Call Meeting Of Allied Premiers To Plan
 Treaty Enforcement.
SITUATION IS. CRAVE
Secret Manufacture Of Aerial Materials Is Discovered
 By Investigators.

PARIS, Dec. 3I-France probably will soon ask for meeting of the al- lied pre- emiers to consider the ques- ton of what action could be taken tc enforce the disarmament of Germany. It is said in official circles that this question now is definitely before the powers. as the council of ambassa- dors has referred to their govern ments and Marshal Foch had suDmi.- ted full report on Germany's mili- tary equipment in compliance with as urgent request of the ambassadors
 Marshol Foch discussed with Pre- mier Leygues today his report on Germany's progress. toward disarma- ment. in which he gave information on Germany's faihre to disarm and dissolve the various civic guard or saniZations. Marshal Foch reported that Germany had been making aero nautical material and exporting it contrary to the treaty's prohibition. The Feport gives the information without drawing any cosclusions.
 The interallied military commis- sion, of which Marshal Foch is chair man. has detailed reports on the se- cret manufacture of aerial materials. most. if not all of which is still hid den in Germany This manufacture. it is said. has assumed such propor- tions that the situation is considered grave.

BERLIN, Dec 31.-The feature of Germany's international relations which is arousing keen interest on the opening of the new year is the prospective early peace with the United States Public opinion views the coming of peace as one of the few agreeable aftermaths of war. This is partly because there never was q pronounced feeling of hostility to America There also is ehe con- viction that the United States will not present staggering bills for in demnities and that commercial rela- tions with the United States will be resumed on a large and generous scale.
 A spring influx of American tour ists is one of the comfortable specu- lations indulged in as a natural re suit of the recent American and Ger man shipping agreement
 Germany enters the new year with a growing sense of the gravity of her position under the treaty of Yer sailles and of the immensity of the cost she is called on to pay for lost world war. Another prominent man ifestitation on the opening of 1921 IS the steady drift away from political and economic radicalism. so that no matter how the treaty is modified or changed in the near future, Germany is resigned to her inevitable lot and is seeking to meet it by an intensifi- cation of effort and Of exploitation throughout her wide field of isdus- tries and resources.
 While he snnntrn nf RnlSnRXISm continues to cast a sinister shadow across the East Prussian frontier. German prophets of the Russian Com mupism are finding dwindling favor clong the rank and file of the Ger man proletariat That this is the ac tual condition in Germany today in the face of the fact that the Moscow government succeeded in reinforcing itself at home is received as proof of the familiar tehory that given food and stabilized economic and political conditions. the German workingman cannot be won over to Utopian eXper- iments.
 The growing stability recorded in German political and economic acti- vities is chiefly on accomplishment of the past six months. It is account- ed for in the active resumption of important pre-war industries reopen ing of former markets overseas. and betterment in the labor situation de- spite constantly mounting wage scales end food prices which will leave ths ordinary but vital staples beyond the reach of even the well paid Workers. Whether these begin hfkAs toward an economic revival in industries, finances and exports can
