may result in a marked and permanent re- duction in advertising Of every sort m an era of sweeping and widespread changes in the course of business activity, the relation between the volume of advertising and the volume of business thus becomes matter or more than mere technical interest Broadly viewed, the subject is important not only to publishers, advertisers and advertising men but to the community as whole
 Any great decrease in the valume of ad- vertising would have profound enect on the number and distribution of both news papers and periodicals and on the inter change of opinion which they so greatly stimulate Many publications would neces- asrily be discontinued while those which survived would reach fewer readers because the loss of advertising revenues would make necessary large increases in subscription rato

ADVERTISING AND BUSINESS.

Newspaper and magazine advertising in the United States is unlikely suffer any very considerable per manent loss in volume. according to James l. Clarke Second VicePresident of the National Bank of Com merce in New York. In the July number Com merce Monthly, the banks magazine he presents a comparison of ota advertising lineage for the past ten years with bank cearings outside New York ar accepted index of business activity. This comparison shows that both follow the same general trend he points out, and that the unprecedented growth of advertising during the postwar boom period pri- mary the result of business activity rather than of extraneous causes MT. Clarke says, in part:

Alaska's New Governor.
Hallway and Marine News

(Railway and Marine News)
 The long contest over the governorship of Alaska has been settled by the Presidential appointment Scott C. Bone, well known eastern who at one time was editor of the Seattle Post t-Inte gencer. While various sections and interests backed different candidates for the office it would be well for all to get together on the proposition of extending Governor Bone that cordial welcome which has al- ways been feature of life in the Northand It is pleasing to note that both MT. Hazelet and Mir. Per kins, the two leading candidates have extended to the new governor expressions of good will and as- surances of cooperation and if the people the Ter ntory follow this good example it will do more than anything else to bring about prosperity in the Ter ritory MT. Bone is not the kind man to take any radical action upon any question and he is not in sympathy with the Wick faction which is collectively responsible for many of Alaskas troubles MT. Bone Is entitled to and should receive the support of every Alaskan who has the interest of the Territory at heart.

 In France it is expected that government purchasing will be abandoned by August 1,
 The Italian Government is still buying principal grain imports and will probably continue through next year. At present ne gotiations are being carried on between mer- chants and the Government, and the basis of discussion being to allow merchants to buy 20 per cent of the imports and the Gov ernment to buy 80 per cent.
 In Germany, consolidated purchase of the most important imported food supplies will probably continue throughout next year.
 In Holland all control has been removed.
 In Belgium, government food purchases have ceased except in wheat and refriger- ated meat, which will probably be decon- troled toward the end of August.
 In the other minor states partial full control of foreign purchasing will remain in the hands of the Governments.
 Of the normal grain exports from the United States approximately 20 per cent are supplied to the countries which will con tinue consolidated purchases after the present harvest.
