MANY THOUSAND
DOLLARS SAVED
IN COOPERATION
New Road Law Eliminates
$35,692 Salaries, ETC.
Other Overhead Cut.

That saving to the Territory OF
$35,69277 in salaries, office rent
clerk hire, stationary, etc, has been
affected under the cooperative road
law since 1921 as compared to ex.
penditures for the years 1890, is
shown by the records of the Terri
torial Road Commission in the Of
fices of the Territorial Secretary
An amount probably larger than
this has also been saved by the elm.
nation of plant overhead, camp
equipment, repairs, crew equipment
and team hire.
In fact, both Territorial officials
and Federal road building agencies
familiar with the road ana trail
building operations throughout the
Territory regard the elimination of
salaries, clerk hire and office rent
as minor economy and merely an
incidental feature of the real bene-
fits gained by the Territory through
the working of the present coopera-
tive system.
NVohC0tC tVOtC uI'uS
The primary object in the passage
eff the present law. as pointed out
by Col James G. Steese, President
OF the Alaska Road Commission. was
to make availdble to the Territory
funds amounting at that time 19l3)
to many thousand dollars allotted by
the Department of Agriculture to
the Forest Service districts of AL
aska and which could be expended
only as there was financial co-opera-
ton by the Territorial government.
These funds were tied up for year
or two before the cooperative law
was enacted and would be still held
in'the Federal treasury had not some
system OF co operation been provided
for
The application of these additional
funds. however. was limited to the
area included within the limits of
the Tongass and Chugach National
Forests and areas adjacent to them
In order to spread the benefits gen.
orally over the Territory. and Incl
dentally to help out the Fourth and
Second Divisions, which otherwise
would not be aided by the release Of
the Department of Agriculture al
lotments. the cooperative system
was made tri-party. involving the
Territory, the Alaska Road Commits
sion and the Bureau of Public Roads.
The last mentioned has taken over
most of the road and trail work in
coastal Alaska from Hyder to Kenai
Peninsula. with the Alaska Road
Commission predominating in the

TERM OF COURT TO BE
 POSTPONED UNTIL NOV.

Advices received from Judge E. E' Ritchie in the last mail are to the affect that the Anchorage term Of court will be postponed until the week following the election in November The principal reason assigned for the postponment is that the statutes pro- hibits the granting of naturalization no nars within thirty days prior to an election. This fact was oveslookeo when the term of court was designat- ed as commencing on October 10th. Those who desired to be naturaiized and expected their hearing in Octoper will therefore. wait until such time after election as the court will an- nounce.
