AUTHORITY
GIVEN TREASURY Is
ESSENTIAL TOSUCCESS

Washington, June 24.-Broader au-
thorty for the treasury department
is essential" to the administration
plans for refunding foreign loans,
Secretary Mellon declared in a let
ter to President Harding transmit
ting a draft Of a bill granting the
desired powers.
The bill was forwarded to Chair
man Penrose of the senate finance
committee and Chairman Fordney
of the house ways and means com
mittee by President Harding and i'm
mediately introduced in the senate by
Senator Penrose. 1t would confer
blanket authority on the treasury,
with approval of the president, to
re-convert or extend loans and in
terest premiums, to accept foreign
securities and to settle claims not
now secured.
Mr.. Harding wrote the two chairmen
that 'all the circumstances suggest
the grant Of broad powers to the
secretary Of the treasury to handle
this problem in such a manner as
best to protect the interests of our
government"
Il hope your committee and con-
gress," the presidents letter contin-
ued, will find it consistent promptly
to sanction such an act as that
which is suggested in the enclosed
draft. If the congress will promptly
sanction such grant of authority
the secretary of the treasury
may proceed to the prosecution OF
the powers granted to him and We
reasonably may expect satisfactory
handling of the obligations due and
the claims of our government which
are awaiting settlement"

ORGANIZED
 AT BETHEL '
Recording Precinct Es- tablished---L. E. Bon
 ham Commissioner.

The Bethel recording precinct was established on April 18th and L. k. Bonham appointed commissioner and John L. Heron named for deputy mar shal, according to personal letter from Judge Charles K. Bunnell to the editor of THE TIMES. This letter con tains much of interest to the people of this Kuskok vim section, especially that portion relating to summer trail from Flat to the mouth of Crooked creek. This matter has already been taken up with the Alaska Road Com mission, thanks to Judge Bunnell, who says:
 "Mr. Hill and I arrived at Flat early on the morning of the 9th, thus com pleting our trip of $50 miles in B days. We were off the trail seven days, four days attending to official business, and three days at Holy Cross on account of stormy weather.
 "On the 18th of April established the Bethel recording precinct, with headquarters at Bethel, and appointed l.. E. Bonham commissioner. This pre- cinct takes in. all the lower Kuskokwim 6p to and including the Tuluksak and its tributaries. The change of bound aries and the establishing of the Bethel precinct will, feel sure, be of great advantage to the people of the lower Kuskok vim.
 "Upon arrival at Hely Cross I wired to Marshal Erwln, recommending that d deputy marshal be stationed at Bethel and suggested John l.. Heron of Bethel for this position. I am new advised that the Attorney General has authorized the appointment and that MT. Heron will be the deputy marshal as soon as he can be informed and takes the oath of office
 ''I am very much impressed with the possibilities for development on the

Kuskokwim. A falkland Bethel are both beautiful little towns and have for residents some of the best people I ever met. The new precinct has an estimated population of 200 whites and 1000 to 200 Eskimos.
 ''It is sixty-one miles from Flat to the mouth of Crooked creek by the winter trail 1 believe summer trail can be secuted out that will follow the winter trail most of the way. If so, both Bethel and McGrath are -four days only from Flat, either going or com ing-two days by launch on the river and two days with pack horse on the trail. I am taking this matter up with the Alaska Road Commission, and hope that a trail can be made this summer.
