$5O,OOO FEDERAL FUNDS
 FOR FAIRBANKS COLLEGE

The first annual Federal allotment toward the maintenance and endow- ment of the Alaska Agricultural Col lege and School of Mines has been ap- proved by the Bureau of Budget and a check for $50 ,000 received by the Terri torial Treasurer covering the allot- ment, according to Treasurer w. G.. Smith This is said to definitely fix the finances necessary for the continued operation of Alaska's first college. '.
 This is thS first aid received by the Territory in it's establishment of the Fairbanks institution, all buildings, or iginal equipment and other necessary expenditures incurred in opening it being paid for out of Territorial ap- propriations. The money is available annually to colleges teaching agricul- ture and the mechanic arts as provid- ed in Congressional Acts passed in 1890 and in 1907. t

EARLY MORNING CALLS
 ARE PROPER IN NORTH

SEATTLE, Nov. 7-Returning here from Noorvik, Alaska, 150 miles within the Arctic Circle, MT. and Mrs. George l.. Evans cannot accustom themselves to the fact that the sun goes down. Before leaving Noorvik they saw the sun the entire twenty-four hours for fourteen days, and for months it never grew dark.
 It is not unusual for a person to make a social call up there at 3 o'clock in the morning, they reported.
 It took MT. and Mrs. Evans, who were employed in a government hospi- tai at Noorvik, nearly two months and half to make the trip from there to Seattle, as they travelled from point $50 miles north of Nome.
 They had only eight white compan- ions at Noorvik. They didn't suffer due to lack of society, however, for the Eskimo, under the tutelage of gov ernment schools, have rapidly assim- Hated modern customs. They have abandoned the use of igloos and are building cabins and otherwise adopt ing modern methods. Evans said that the Eskimo is kind to marked degree and probably responds more readily to teaching than does any other protege of the missionary He said that the present schools and hospitals demon strated the good to be accomplished among the far-northern race, and also showed that the United States could increase it's natural resources in the Arctic circle by the further extension of it's institutions.

WILL JEWELL
 STATUE OF
 EMPHASIZING

SAN. FRANCISCO, Nov. z. On Armistice Day, next Saturday, a heroic statue of General Pershing, picturing him as if watching troops in battle, will be unveiled in the Golden Gate Park here.
 The statue is a gift to the city of San Francisco by Dr. Norris Herz- stein, local physician It was done by an old friend of the doctor, Haig Patigan, noted San Francisco sculp- tor.
 Eight feet in height, the figure is of gilt bronze and stands on bed estal of silver granite. The pedestal is five feet high. It presents the general in field uniform, standing squarely and looking forward, both face and figure animated with the expression of alertness and energy.
 On the face of the pedestal is the inscription: "In tribute to General Pership and the victorious armies of the United States and her CO., belligerents during the World War, 1y14-191S Presented by Dr.. Morris Herzstein, 1922" b.s.
 Dr. Herzstein conceived the idea of the statue after he had heard from General Pership himself the
 
 story of the American Expeditionary Force and saw with his own eyes the fields where that force had won imperishable glory. The doctor toured the battle fields with Repre- sentative Julius Kahn of San Fran cisco immediately after the Armistice and spent some time as the guest of General Persh1ng.
 Patigan has worked on the statue for more than two years, and, at the request of the doctor, has kept the plans secret.

WET ISSUE TO BE FOUGHT
 TO LIMIT AFTER ELECTION

making the volstead Act less drastic. It is pointed out that Congressmen who now oppose wet movements would certainly lessen their opposi- ton if home distrcits show wet strength today.
 Dry leaders, it is said, will op- pose every effort to amend the law, holding that one step to make it less drastic will be but the first of series of attempts intended ulti- mately to wipe out the law. They predict they have sufficient strength in the present Congress to defeat every "wet" move and will not lose enough votes to weaken their posi- ton in tn next House,
 If the legislation Is once passed by the House, neutral observers say, 1t will not meet with much opposi- tions in the Senate. The eSnate, while having number of noted dry leaders in it's ranks, can muster a sufficient wet vote to pass a measure which has already gone through the House, it is said. At any rate, the wet forces are planning to make the attempt and time alone will tell the success of their cause.
 he Hill measure, it's supporters say, will meet with more support than other wet bills, because it car ries a revenue clause Under its tax provisions it would add ap- proximately $500,0OO,OOO year to the Federal treasury, With taxation rising and legislators anxious to cut down direct taxes, it is contended they will be willing to accept a bill which would bring in half billion dollars annually without any com plaints from the people so taxed.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Songress will be called upon to register it's sentiment on amendment of the Vol stead act by legalizing the sale or PTS beer and light wines as soon as it reconvenes after the November elections.
 The .'wets" in the House, 1t was said, will force the issue before the tenure of the present body expires next March 4. They hope either to succeed following the election or to lay the groundwork for a victory in the next House, which, they contend, will show added "wet" strength.
 A bill now pending was introduced by Representative Hill (Rep.), of Maryland, an ardent "wet," which would seek to test the Houses posi- ton. The measure would legalize the sale of wines and beers having 2,75 per cent alcoholic content, by taxing their sale under the revenue act It would place tax Of twenty cents a gallon on all such beverages, includ- ing cider.
 The measure would first create Federal local option districts, so that any community which is entirely "dry" would not be forced to permit their sale. The people of each dis trict could vote whether they wanted beer and light wines, and if the vote were favorable the Volstead Act would not intervene unless their alec holic content exceeded the 2.75 per cent limit.
 In the event that today's elections show decided tendency of voters toward "wet" candidates, the leaders of the movement hope to push through some kind of legislation

PRACTICAL AID IS EXTENDED
 PROSPECT0RS

Practical aid is being extended pros pectors in Interior Alaska by the ex- pertinent station of the Bureau of Mines at Fairbanks, according to recent statement issued by the Bureau covering it's activities in that line. It is the. aim, it was stated, of John A. Davis, superintendent of the Alaska station, to bring about the closest possible relations between his station and the men engaged in looking for new mineral deposits.
 The Bureau, in the statement men, toned above, said:
 "The Bureau of Mines, at its experi- ment station at Fairbanks, Alaska, is endeavoring to assist in the mineral development of Alaska by encourag- ing prospectors to send to the station samples which may be thought to contain metallic value. These sam ples are examined and the prospectors informed as to what they are and whether they contain metallic or other values to justify their being assayed or analysed. If those submitting the samples have an assay or an analysis made, a charge is made for the work, as it is the policy of the Bureau of Mines not to do work which can be done by a commercial assayer, chem ist or engineer In other words, pol icy not generally pursued at the Blu reau's various experiment stations has been adopted in Alaska largely be- cause of the great difficulty experi- eEced by prospectors in having as- says and analytical work performed The moneys received are turned over to the treasurer of the United States to the credit of miscellaneous re- ceipts. i.
 Since the establishment of the ex- pertinent station at Fairbanks, there have been made the following deter minations either as custom assays or in connection with Investigations or official work; gold and silver, 17S3; platinum 60 (total fusions 4524) cupel- lations 2154; all other determinations, 527. Nearly 1,600 mineral samples have been submitted to the station for Identification and qualitative tests"
