FALL INCLINED TO DISREGARD
 ALASKA ENDoREMENTS

Washington, April, l1-Secretary Fall. upon whom President Harding is depending chiefly for advice as to the appointment of a governor for Alaska, is much inclined to disregard the en- dorsements that have been given in Alaska respectively to Wfckershain and Hazelett for the position and seek a candidate outside the territory; and as suggested have been advanced that E. Lester Jones. who was recently re- appointed chief of the Coast and Geodic Survey. might be available, the latter may be chosen to fill the posi- tfon, according to those in touch with - ths -situaton.. sA As ,. t-,
 Another whose name has been sent in with the endorsement of Senator's Wordsworth and Calder of New York is a capitalist and finacier. Karl Fl. Behr of Brooklyn. Colonel Charles Forbes, a Spokane contractor whose real am- bition was said to be to become a mem Der of the Shipping Board, could. it IS understood, have the Alas ska governor ship if he would accept. which his in intimates claim he is not likely to do.

 GENERAL STRIKE

London, April. 13-Britan today made herculean efforts to meet the general strike called for Friday night at ten o'clock by the Triple Alliance. whose membership numbers four hun dred thousand miners. railway mo, and transport workers. Many other unions will be likely to join in the pro posed general strike The decision to call the general strike at the above stated time was reached this morning following the collapse of the negotia . tions between the miners and mine owners.
 Four million men will be thrown out of work in England by the strike, it is computed. In spite of all efforts to instill other views, the coal miners continue to demand the nationaliza- tion of industry and this has proved the chief obstacle to all attempts at set tlement.

The ness ge was read al Il joint session of both houses and was ch efly concerned with domcS- tic problems.

"There can be no mistake and there will be no betrayal of the deliberate expression of the American people in the recent election" In dealing with the question of lowering the taxes and bringing about lower retail prices Harding said:
 "The surest procedure in every government is to put it's house in or der. know of no more pressing prob lems at home than to restrict our na- tional expenditures. The most sub stantial relief from tax burdens must come for the present from readjust- ments of internal taxes and revision or repeal of those taxes which have become so unproductive and burden. some as to defeat their own purpose.
 "I believe in the protection of Amer ican industry and it Is our porpose to prosper America first. The reduced cost basis of production has been re- covered" he continued. "but the high cost of living has not yet yielded In like proportion. Perishable foods cost too much and Congress should inves. tisate and pass an emergency tarin at once.
