EXPORTS FROM ALASKA FOR
 LAST MONTH

Alaska products shipped to the states during the month of Septem- Der had a total value of SLAP, $50, according to the monthly statement of shipments of merchandise just issued by Collector of Customs John w. Troy. The principal commodity exported was canned salmon which was valued at s995S.661 and consisted of 64,163. .O73 pounds. The next on the list of ex- ports was copper ore valued at s4SO,- 426.
 Exports for September of this year were s2,S59,91 less in value than the corresponding month of last year when they were valued at S14.3l2,465. The loss is virtually accounted for in two commodities, canned salmon and furs In September 1920, canned salmon to the value of $12.677,O22 was exported compared to s9,95S,661 the same month this year, while furs decreased from $153,S93 last year to S20,O96 this year. Copper ore increased this year ap- proximately $17O,OOO Included among the items of export this year was zinc concentrates valued at $2,1OO which were shipped from Willow creek. This is the first shipment of the kind ever made from that district. A small amount of Alaska fruits and vege- tables were also included in the months exports.

ASK MORE MONEY FOR ALASKA
 RAILWAY
Special to The Daily Times)

SEATTLE, Oct. II. - Revised es. inmates made two years ago as to the cost of the government railroad in Alaska have proved inadequate. In a report made to Secretary Fall by Col. Frederick Mears. chairman Of the Alaskan engineering commission, the sum of S3,110,21O is named as the additional amount required. With this money Colonel Mears reports the railroad can be completed. With out it, 60 or more miles of track will remain unfinished and two i'm portant bridges, namely one over the Nenana and the other over the Panama cannot be built. Accordingly at the instance of the department of the interior. Representative Curry, chairman of the committee on terri tories has introduced a bill author izing the expenditure of this addition al sum.
 When congress ordered the con struction of the railroad in 1914. it was estimated that the total cost would be S25.OOO,OOO. Two years ago. all construction costs having advanced materially. 1t was estimated that ST. OO,OOO more, making a grand total of $52,000O00, would be required to finish the projects. The annual ap- propriation bills have appropriated all of this the last sundry civil bill ap- propriating the balance and furnish ing sufficient money to carry the work down to the end of the fiscal year June 30. 1922. Now Colonel Mears finds this inadequate. Repre- tentative Curry's bill authorizing the increase of cost is necessary prelim- mary to the inclusion of $3,1lO.2lO in the coming budget.

OF CROSSING CARELESSNESS
Railroad Officials Find Sur

During the month Of October Penn

to grade crossings to check up care
less automobilistS caused warnings to
be served on 1856 automobile drivers
or owners in the states Of New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania. These watch
ers consumed a total of 3.043 hours
of time in their work, and an analysis
of their reports shows that during the
month 81 per cent of all automobilists
driving over grade crossings failed to
observe proper caution in approach
ing the crossings
The Pennsylvania railroads cam
paign to reduce the number of grade
crossing accidents began in July and
has been conducted in cooperation
with Lewis S. Sadler COMM ssh oner of
highways of Pennsylvania, and w. l..
Dill. commissioner of motor vehicles
a case Of careless driving at a grade

state where the license was issued.
Careless Motorists Warned.
This latter official gets the name of
the owner of the car from his records
and forwards warning to him, CIV
ing the date, time and place of his
offenSe.
Notwithstanding the precautions
that are taken to protect automobile
lists there are repeated instances Of
reckless driving reported by watchers.

| impressive illustration of careless
ness:
On the evening Of November %. an
automobile bearing a Pennsylvania
license number disregarded watch
mans signal at the gas house cross
ing at Carlisle, Pa, although when
the warning was given the automobile
was 800 feet from the track. In the
face of the warning the driver of the
car attempted to cross the tracks in
front of a passenger train. His motor
stopped while he was on the tracks
and fatal accident was averted. only
by the prompt action of the watch
man. who ran along the track with
a red flag and succeeded in stopping
the approaching train.
~ Killed Mt Grade Crossings.
The owner of this car. a resident Of
New Oxford, Pa, has received warn
ing calling his attention to the fact
that he not only endangered the lives
of the occupants Of the car by his act,
but might have caused a derailment of
the train with consequent loss OF life
or injuries to passengers and the
members of the train crew.
Figures just compiled by tho Penn

the first six months of 1920 forty
seven persons were killed and 1852 in
jured in accidents to automobiles at
grade crossings on the Pennsylvania
system, while in the same period of
1919, fifty-eight persons were killed
and LAG injured.
