 New York Man Urges Air Service.
 A letter was read from Charles Kingston of New York who desires to establish airplane service in Alaska with Juneau as the head quarters. He said from his investi- gations he was convinced that the situation here would lend itself cplendidly to an airplane service and that it would prove invaluable to the community from a conner cial standpoint for carrying passen- gers, mail and light freight.
 Fisheries Resolution. H. l.. Faulkner, William Britt Henry Roden. R. E. Roberson and Charles D. Garfield participated in the discussion concerning the fish, cries resolution As adopted, the resolution is as follows:
 Whereas the salmon fishing in dustry is of great importance to the people of the Territory of Alaska in that it furnishes a large portion of the Territorial revenue, and em- ployment to thousands of the Ter ritory's inhabitants, and is a great source of food supply to the Nation and
 Whereas the annual supply - of salmon is becoming greatly depleted which is matter of grave concern to the Territory, to those who have many millions of dollars invested in the canning industry to the em- ployees in that industry, and to the people at large; and
 Whereas the protection and regu- lation of the fisheries has caused g general discussion which has re suited in the introduction of various bills in Congress, which has for theil object such regulation and protec- tion; and one of which said bills known as House Bill No. 10427 was favorably reported by the House Committe on Merchant Marine and Fisheries; and
 Whereas said bill is not suffi- ciently broad nor comprehensive and is discriminatory in that it would result in the abolition of about ninety per cent of the existing fish traps in the Territory while it pro- yides no regulations for other meth ods of fishing, or other fishing ap- pliances; and
 Whereas, on account of the differ. ent conditions existing in different parts of the Territory and it's coastal waters, and the variations in the seasons, and the changing conditions l from year to year in the salmon run in each locality, no branch of the fishing and canning industry can be adequately regulated by a general inflexible law, but such regulation must of necessity be done by some

Should Weld Elements.

NJ. Meyer urged that our national
policy not only should look toward the
further development of the Federal Tc-
serve system, but should recognize the
funcamcntal Importance of welding into
4 closer and more harmonious unit the
different elements that go To make up
our banking structure. He said
I'VE are at q parting of the ways
ard nov is the tine fer Us to determine
the direction in which we are going.
We must decide whether We shall con-
tinue the more or less haphazard de-
yeopment of our banking machinery.
or whether our action shall proceed
along lines based on comprehensive
view of the needs of the country. bring
ing our entire banking structure and
resources into a more harmonious and
unified organization
Notwithstanding the fact that more
than 1900 state institutions arc now
rligihle for membership in the Federal
siesarve system. only about l.600 have
ioincd. And get in times of stress the
non-mcmber banks are in greatest need
of access to central reservoir OF
credit. This is conclusively proved by
The experience Of the War Finance Cor
poration during the last year. Approx
matcly SIS per cent OF tie banks TO
which the corpora ION has made loans
arc state institutions and only about 10
aer cent arc national banks.
"In terms OF dollars the loans OF the
corf,oration to state banks constitute so
no., cent. of the whole. And these fig
urns do not take into account the large
advances msdc TO live stock loan COM
nanics which arc organized under state
laws. The fact that two-thirds of all
the banks in the country, representing
80 per cent. of our total banking re-
sources. have no direct relation TO the
Federal Reserve system is undoubtedly
responsiblc. in part at least for some
Of our recent difficulties"
Regarding branch banking Mr.. Meyer
laid:
Branch banking may be good or it
may be bad. II may be good if carried
on In a limited way. and bad IL permitted
on an extensive scale. But whether IL
is good or whether it Is bad. branch
banking should be considered on it's
merits ard should not be the product OF
competition in the endeavor TO expand
either the state or the national banking
organizations
Describing briefly the work OF the
War Finance Corporation, Mr. Meyer
said that up to September is, 1922, the
corporation had authorized nearly : 900
loans. aggregating s1S3.000,0 900. to ap-
proxlmatcly 400 banking institutions
In the agricultural sections OF the conn
Try. $50 loans. totalng 1000. 900. to

N1coLLET COUNTY LEVY
It Will Be Higher With Valuation
.- AT Lower Mark

At Lower Mark ...
st. Peter, July 1Es-The board OF
county commissioners late yesterday
were busy, in their semi annual ses-
sion at the court house, arriving at
a suitable tax levy for the year 1928.
With an estimated county expense
of 100000 and a county valuation
placed at $9,000,000 it was predicted
that the levy for the next year
would be around 10 or IL mills.
This levy will be slightly in excess
of last years which was nine mills,
but the property valuation has been
decreased from $11,000,0o0. Unless
the figures are revised by the COM
missioners, which Is probable, the
levy will be higher but the valua
ton lower than the 1922 figures.
In the list Of estimated expenses
$4,000 was set aside for road and
bridge work. With the $4,000 that
is expected from the state for this
item, total of $70,0O0 viii be avail
able for road work in the county.
The county revenue appropriation
was set at $4,000 and $4,000 was
allowed for the operation Of the poor
farm, bringing the total expenses

even 100000.
Four bids for the $4,000 bond is
sue were received, but all were re-
jected because of excessive interest
rates. The commissioners met on
Monday morning and were expected
to wind up their emi-yearly meet
ing last night. An amount of $4,000
was set aside for the convenience of
the highway foreman in drawing
checks, so that the foreman may
draw them instead, of the highway
engineer. 80.
John Loeffelmacher. appeared be-
fore the board and requested dam
ages caused by a road on his prop

Johnson and Ole Anthony, of the
Lake Prairie township board were
paid $593.68 for their assistance in
constructing two bridges.
All books and reports were exam

run of business taken care of. Late
yesterday the board planned to take
care of the abatements of taxes, a
