SENATE BOOSTS APPRO PRIAT|0N
 FOR ROAD WORK
Approves $5O0,000 for Alaska Roads and Trails
 Increase Over House

The annual Federal appropriation for the Alaska Road Commission has been increased to $500,00O in the Sen ate, according to official advices re ceived today at Commission head quarters here. and made public by Col James G. Steese, president. This amount is carried in the War De- partment measure now before the Senate and the item was approved yesterday by it.
 The bill was passed by the House several weeks ago, carrying $425,O00 for the Commission work in Alaska. It also contained provision under which the Commission is authorized to obligate not to exceed 75 per cent of the previous years appropriation in any year that the army bill has not passed Congress by March l. In the absence of information to the contrary, Colonel Steese believes that this provision was approved by the Senate also.
 The army bill, on account of nu- merous changes made in it by the Senate, will have to go to conference. Colonel Steese believes it probable that the Alaska Road Commission item for $500000 will be allowed by the House as strong showing was made before both the Senate and House committees as regards the ne cessity for increased funds for road work, especially for the purpose Of constructing a feeder system of roads to the Alaska Railroad.

INSPECTION OF SEAL HERDS TO
 BE MADE SOON
Secretary Huston and Party to Co to Commander
 Islands on Alaska Trip

Assistant Secretary of Commerce Huston and those accompanying him on his Alaska trip next month, to- gether with Department of Commerce officials in charge of the seal in dustry on the Pribfloff Islands, will go to the Commander Islands, in Russian waters, to inspect the seal herd there, according to E. M. Bell, Assistant Fisheries Agent. The in spection will be a joint one, repre- sentatives of the British and Japanese governments taking part in it.
 The American officials will leave Seattle about June 20 on the Coast Guard cutter Moiave. MT. Huston will be accompanied by Ward T Bower, Chief Alaska Agent for the Bureau of Fisheries, and possibly one other representative from the Department of Commerce; Dr. Leon ard ,Stejneger, Curator in the Ma tional Museum; probably a repre- sentative from both the Biological Survey and Geological Survey Blu reaus, and possibly two or three oth- CTS Dr. A. H. Brooks has been asked to be one of the party, but il is not known if he accepted.
 It is also possible that Henry O'Malley, new head of the Bureau of Fisheries, may be among the visi- tors, but he has made no definite an nouncement of his plans for the sum mer. The Alaska fisheries industry is regarded by MT. O'Malley as one of the most important matters con nected with his bureau, said MT. Ball It is certain, he added, that MT. O'Malley will spend as much of his time in the field as is possible without neglecting his Washington duties, he added.
 When the Mojave reaches the Pribiloff Islands, A. H. Proctor, Su- perintendent of the work; H. D. Allen, agent on St. Paul Island, and c. E. Crumpton, agent on St. George Island, will be taken aboard for the trip to Commander Islands and the inspection of the herd there. It is also possible, said MT Ball, that the representatives of Great Britain and Japan will make "a visit to the Pribi- lOff Islands to inspect the herd
 It is probably that MT. Huston and his party will make but brief stay in Southeastern Alaska, not exceeding two days, said MT Ball The itiner- ary as recently announced calls for stop here. then proceed to either Cordova or Valdez. over the Richard. son Highway to Fairbanks. out over the Alasha Railroad to Anchorage, thence to the Pribiloffs and wind up at Nome before returning to Seattle.

Wheat Average Lower
On Renewed Liquidation

CHICAGO, Nov. 27.-Liquidation
in wheat was renewed on a large
scale today and though the sup
port was of strong character at
times. 1t failed to Withstand the
persistent pressure situation, slow
ing down Of the cash demand in
the southwest, and advices that
leading mills in the northwest were
reducing their output along With
sustained weakness at Liverpool
all aided in inducing protracted
liquidation:
Wheat closed at v @ 1Mc
lower, corn was unchanged to Nc
off. oats were unchanged sc
lower; rye was Y q 11ac down
and barley was unchanged.
1t was a highly uncertain trend
that featured the wheat trading
due to a desire on the part of
many traders to cover up.
Oats received fairly good support
from eastern houses and cash in
terests. The selling was mainly
by longs and southwest firms.
Rye dipped with other grains.
Eastern interests sold early.
There was considerable buying of
rye credited to local traders who
sold the wheat against it.
