day to the effect that organizers of the

lurid suggestions made by some news

not be fulfilled, inasmuch as three la

with Mr.. Bonar Law last night, agreed
to advise the leaders of the unemployed

the British Empire exhibition, which is
to be held in 1924, decided not to re-
strict the supplies of products to be used
in connection with the big show to the

cided to have an official investigation of
the affairs of the exhibition. The exc
cutive committee held a stormy meet
ing yesterday over the question OF sup
plies and finally decided to ask the Board
of Trade to grant an official enquiry.
The Duke Of ~Devonshire, President of
the British Empire exhibition and two
other members Of the executive were

THE KICK OF THE MULE

It is probable that the extent of the Demo- cratic gains, as indicated by yesterdays re- turns from the national elections has been almost as great a surprise to the Democrats as to the Republicans. In spite of Democratic predictions of "'come back,'' the kick of the Democratic mule was not expected to be as full of dynamite as it has demonstrated itself to be- From the appearance of things today the Democrats will come pretty close to out numbering the Republicans in the House of Representatives. The United States Senate will remain Republican. At best, this means nothing more than the ability of the Demo crats to kick monkey wrenches into the Gov ernmental machinery during the remainder of the present administration. To this extent, yesterdays election is unfortunate, With less than half of his term served, President Hard ing should be given time and opportunity dur ing the next two years to demonstrate the ef- feet of policies for which he was elected by a large majority. Criticism at this time is in- opportune and premature
 The province of the Democratic party, how ever, has always been to oppose. In that re- spect it is serving today as the voice of all the various interests and factions who have a grievance against the present Administra- ton. Among these are the advocates of the soldiers bonus, I.aborites disgruntled over the Daugherty injunction Non-Partisan League theorists, irreconcilables in the Republican ranks, and general opponents of constructive policies. The prohibition question, too, has entered largely into the result, Democratic "wet" candidates having been supported re gardless of party considerations. The "wet" " vote has been large.

roads and trails Yet there is less effort made | to get money for them, in proportion to their
 importance, than there is to have freak fisher
 ies legislation enacted. This is not said in a
 derogatory sense of the Alaska Road Com
 mission which has adopted comprehensive
 road construction program and annually fur lnshes detailed estimates to Congress asking for liberal road appropriations. But there seems to be a general failure to recognize the 1futility of attempting to secure adequate road funds through special legislation that applies Ito Alaska alone. The history of the past de- cade proves our inability to get this kind of appropriation bills through Congress if it proves nothing else. When the question of |appropriating money arises, Congress has at best step-fatherly interest in us.
 Whatever support special Alaska measures |obtain in Congress, when money is at stake,
 is limited to few friends of the Territory
 who are willing to do what they can if it doesn't injure their own causes. Such meas
 ures lack the essential element required for
 enactment into law-and that is common in
 terest arising from general application to the entire country. This is particularly true las regards road appropriation measures. Had
 CHt OIeSI koeIFICe pIeScutou eSCIIldIeS CO OOH- gress asking for $1,000,000 for Alaska alone, without including other national forest states, it would not have been able to get the bill out of committee. That the Alaska Road Commission is able to get about 50 per cent
 of the funds it annually requests speaks strongly for it's standing and the influence of its members and their friends.
 The time has come to tie our roads onto
 an omnibus road bill. The Federal Govern
 ment should have paramount interest in road construction here since it owns outright in
 excess of 98 per cent of the land and resources. lit recognizes its responsibility for building roads in the public land states. Its duty to Alaska is not less. On the contrary. it is pro portionately greater. than to states having Iunappropriated public lands. Little real eff. fort has been made to bring home to Washing ton that duty. Only recently have Alaskans come to understand the situation. Now that the facts are known, it would be a short-sight- ed and foolishly determined policy that would neglect to concentrate every effort and all pos Isible influences to bring about Alaska's par |ticipation in the general Federal aid road pro
 gram. This is matter that demands the ur-
 gent attention of Alaska's delegate. Juneau Empire. es .s% @&S,e

EXTENSIVE ROAD SYSTEM PLANNED

Good roads advocates and organizations are planning to launch a systematic campaign of education for a comprehensive national good roads building program entailing the expendi- ture of $6,000000,000 and that will put in con dition total of 180,000 miles of highway, or sixty times the distance across the continent. It is proposed to extend the program over period of from 15 to 20 years. M
 The Highway Education Board, an organi- zation centering in the national capital, is one of the most active proponents of the na- tional highway system In order to provide funds for creating the highway, the Federal Government is expected to provide 50 per cent of the funds. State governments cooper ating to the extent of the remaining 50 per cent. The Bureau of Public Roads has ad- vised the Board that the present Federal aid program will be extended for period of about 20 years. $
 The coming session of Congress will have to deal with road appropriation bills aggre- gating approximately $1OOOOO,oOO. Authority for continuation of Federal road aid was in cluded in legislation by the last session but funds were not then made available
 Under the present system of Federal aid, Alaska generally does not share in the under taking. It is included in the special Forest Fund provisions but the geneal provisions of the bill excludes all Territories The greatest need of this Territory today, transcending re- form of Government reduction of transporta- ton costs, regulation of fishing gear and other things so extensively discussed, is more
