 Figures Show Cause
 Back of Mir. Hodges announce ment of the famine" there are tragic facts. Average employment in the coal fields Is now three and one half days week. At the existing wage rates. graduated from mini mum of s1.50 day to s2.50 (figur- ing the pound at parity with the dollar) the weekly wage of the miners Is from $5.25 to ss.75, with the great majority receiving a wage much nearer the first figure than the second. The rate of pay Is 32 per cent above the rate of 1914; the cost of living is still S1 per cent higher than in 1914. Out of his earn ings. the coal miner must pay his health insurance and unemployment benefit contributions.
 The most recent official statistics on actual deaths by starvation" show that during 12 months. there were four in London and 2S in prov inces. a tiny total in days that have accustomed us to reports of millions starving, but 1t is feared that a few poor proud men and women" are starving because they will not seek poor law relief. and 1t is for facts as to such cases that the health minister has directed all authori ties and the police to make com plete reports.
 Juvenile Crime High
 Meantime. the number of what a London judge called .'crlmes of mo- tiyeless feroeity by young people" are also worrying the officials and socialists. Jack Hewitt, IS, has just been sentenced for the murder of q woman 18-year-old Jacohy has swung for the murder of Lady White the two horrid murders of Harold Jones, 16, are still remem- bered Other cases are pending. Criminologists go back to war years for. explanation. Crimes by children mostly thefts-totaled 27.000; in 1917 they amounted to 51.000. The offenders were nearly all boys of from 10 to 14 years of age. At the height of juvenile crime (1917) Hewitt was 10, Harold Jones II, an1 Jacoby 13. Now" says Cecil Lee son, secretary of a league for penal reform, If any appreciable number of juvenile offenders of war days are

carrying through adolescence the marks of their wartime neglect, we should expect to find an increase In all male offenders of 16 to 21 years-and that Is precisely what we do find" There was an increase of 5.S per cent of prisoners of that age in 191S-19. The next year it jumped from S.527 to 4,079-in 1920-2i it was 4.211. During the war nearly all the children were neglected. and, as in all epidemics, the survivors also bear the mark, 1t needs to be said that no small part of the price of victory was paid by the children.
 Save for Lean Years
 But take another angle to the economic problem. c. R. Nevinson, the modernist painter, whose can vases are better known and perhaps better understood in the United States than here In his own country, delighted a host of persons more re- served than he, when he got into the newspapers with his frank financial statement. During the last five years of hard work. he earned. he says, no more than $375 per annum. He kept out of the breadline because he had haved money from more prosperous years and because his wife made many of her own clothes and some of his. but now he has only enough funds to last him six months. He concluded grandly. utilizing his talent for making good newspaper copy 'as this Americanized civiliza- ton prefers an artist dead. l con- sider 1t my duty at least to die hand somely In debt"
 In the organge-curtained studios of Chelsea came a rumble Of cheers but solid citizens were given pause. The Post wonders what would hap pen if other Britishers were to throw appearance to the winds and boldly proclaim that their means of sub sistence would vanish in the next six months, and that they considered It their duty as unpatriotic Englishmen to die like Mir. Nevinson-handsom ly in debt.

But in East Lon don, in the industrial towns of tho north and particuarly in the coal mining areas of Lancanshire and Wales, there is vast army or misery. Consider the authenticated figures:

FIRE LOSS ONLY $25o;
 EFFICIENCY OF CITY'S
 SERVICE SAVES BLOCK

Fire caused loss of about $250, principally from smoke and water, in the two-story frame business build ing between Nick's Place and the of flee building of the Alaska Steamship Company on First street between 12 and 1 o'clock today. The building is occupied by Swanson's secondhand store downstairs and Mrs. Lucille Mill Ter has apartments upstairs.
 Mrs. Miller assured The Times she did not know how the fire started, but Fire Chief Harry Netleton declares she emptied some redhot ashes on the floor in back room.
 The building is owned by the Os- borne brothers, George and Ben.
 The volunteer fire department re- bonded quickly. Chief Nettleton had plenty of help and he says it was ef- ficient; that serious loss was mar rowly averted The water pressure also was surprisingly good and thanks were generally extended to Nathan ael Greene, secretary of the Public Utilities Company, who has been con- serving the water supply, pending the summer thaw, to safeguard against just such an emergency. Everyone was thankful also that the fire did not start at night
 The volunteer fire laddies, led by Chief Nettleton, quickly found the cen ter of the fire and chopped their way into the back room. They also went in from the front and had the fire out in trice.

FRANK TOWNSEND FINDS
 SUCCESS ON FOX FARMS

Frank Townsend, pioneer master mechanic of the Copper River & Northwestern Railroad, has arrived from his fox farm on Wingham Is- land for visit on business and pleasure He is on his way to his fox farm island in Controller Bay The latter island, he said, is under lease to Otto Reopen and Harry Dugdale, with whom he is associated He and Jack Carson have the island under lease in the Icy Straits. MT Townsend said he was doing well in the new industry, raising blues. He will have upward of fifty pairs for breeding purposes this summer. The animals run at large and are caught in the feed houses when wanted.
 Most of the desirable islands in Southeastern Alaska already have been taken for fox farming, MT Townsend said. Between sixty and seventy islands are now under lease.
 The fox fur market is good, he said. He is shipping his belts to London.
 Neglect on the part of the fox farmers is the main drawback to the development of the industry, MT. Townsend said. It is business that requires painstaking care and pers- everance and lazy persons are prone to let things go from day to day
 MT. Townsend said he did not be- lieve he would ever have to go back to railroading. The recent freeze-up on the Copper River line was the worst in at least ten years, he said, if not unprecedented He was welcomed here by come of his old railroad comrades.

Tells of Katalla Oil Field and Compare Favorably With Big Bradford Bonanzas.

p George c. Hazelet arrived at nome from Katalla last night at midnight and will stay here, according to his present plans, until the latter part of next week. ...-.. ..=
 MT. Hazelet showed by his comment on topics of the day that he was keepipg in close touch, though busy at the Katalla oil field, with affairs at home and in the outside world.
 A special meeting of the Cordova Chamber of Commerce probably will be held one day next week, he said, to consider several matters of 1m- portance to Cordova and the Ter ritory.
 Asked what he thought of the gen. eral proposal for convention or Territorial commercial organizations in Cordova perhaps in June for the purpose of forming the Alaska Chamber of Commerce, MT. Hazelet said he was, of course, strongly III favor of it and long ago had recog- nized the need of such an organlza- tion.
 As to ways and means of calling and holding the convention, he said, these details would be attended to by the Chamber of Commerce.
 ELEVEN OIL WELLS NOW
 PRODUCE 40 BARRELS DAILY
 The eleven oil wells at Katalla, Mir. Hazelet said, are producing now a total of about forty barrels day. He commented on the general slm- ilaritv of the Katalla field to the famous one at Bradford, Pa, which has produced billions of dollars worth of oil by pumping operations by the utilization of the waterforce extraction process now will continue to produce perhaps for another hum dred years. The two fields are alike, except perhaps in geological forma- tion. It seemed to be MT. Hazelets belief that the Katalla field can be made equally profitable. but it is an enterprise requiring large capital and favorable laws.
 Mr. Hazelet had nothing to say about politics, except that he was hoping hard for President Harding to come up this summer.
