dered most difficult and large enter prices have been compelled to close down, or greatly crtail their opera tions. Both quartz and placer mining have been checked by adverse eco- homie conditions. Export statistics for the calendar year will probably show more marked decrease than the statistics for the fiscal year.
 As with mining so it is with the Territorial fisheries, but for a diff ferent reason. The waters of Alaska were overfished during the war Can ueries vied with each other in pack ing fish under the governmental spur to stimulate the production of food products Oversupply at the close of the war and disturbed market con- ditions affected the industry and simultaneously the run of salmon was reduced. The catch for 1921 is below that of 1920, which showed q large decrease compared with the years immediately preceding. The marked depletion of the fishing catch has OG- casioned somewhat widespread fears of the destruction of the salmon in dustry, but there is reassurance in the fact that similar fears enter tained as long ago as 1907, which found expression in public message, were not realized and the salmon in dustry developed amazingly in the years ensuing. However, it is of the utmost importance to conserve this wonderful industry along the Alaska shores and to prevent waste ful methods and means of operation.
 Agriculture is making marked prog ress in Alaska in spite of adverse general conditions. Homesteaders in the interior. in the Tanana, Matanus- ka and Susitna Valleys, are demon stratng the farming resources and possibilities of this rich country Larger and more accessible markets will assuredly mean many thousand acres of rich soil under successful cultivation.

PLANS OUTLINED
FOR THE SOCIETY
Constitution and Bylaws
Will Be Adopted At a
Later Date

Mt. Vernon at last has dramatic
society which will be close rival
to the others in the larger cities.
Thursday evening a group of people
met in the basement of the public IL
brary and organized into a society to
promote amateur theatricals in this
city. They agreed they should as a
group assume the responsibility of
directing the plays themselves and
not have a professional director do
it; of designing and making all cos
tunes; of painting scenery. and build
ing playhouse in which the plays
may be given without great expense,
but with considerable comfort to pa
irons. Such playhouse is planned
after one in Boston, Mass, this one
being an old barn transformed into
theatre. However, no definite plans
can be made until further meetings.
To start the organization Thursday
evening, Mr. II. c. Devin made an
interesting address on the value OF
such an organization to the commun
ity He told of former societies start.
cessful as to raise money for the per.
petual care OF the grave of Daniel D.
Emmett. This society has long since
passed into oblivion. The new society
is to take its place, and the place of
many other societies organized at
one time or another, thus making one
large organization which will outclass
all others.
After Mr.. Devins talk, committee
composed of Miss Helen Colville, Ced
ric Smith and Charles Copper was
appointed to draw up constitution
and bylaws. and report at the next
meeting, Sept 9. at the same place.
A committee, consisting of Mrs

RESIDENTS COMPLAIN
OF NOISY TRUCKS
Chief Parker Has Taken the
Matter to State Highway
Commissioner Herrick

Many citizens have complained to
Chief of Police Parker concerning the
state trucks engaged in hauling ma
terials for the Wooster road improve
ment, near Amity.. The most urgent
complaints are that the trucks oper-
ate with their cut-outs open. while a
number of persons complain of the
dust and damage done to paved
streets in the city.
Chief Parker has taken the matter
up with State Highway Commission
er Leon Herrick, and that official has
promised to have all trucks equipped
with mufflers not later than next
Monday. 1t is thought that if the
matter of noise is taken care of there
will not be so many complaints.
Chief Parker, pending the arrival of
the mufflers, has had the trucks re-
routed, that is, he has instructed the
drivers to use different streets to
reach the Wooster pike, rather than
have the same route each day.
