Fight Wages ON
Disposition, of
Oil Resources
By a Staff Correspondent.

WASHINGTON, July SIN q way,
the public oil resources are like a
bunch of easy money. Unlike water
power, they will not last forever.
Tap them. burn them for the power
they will create, and the oil resources
are gone.

Primary Fight
Becomes Major
Campaign Issue
BY ROBERT j. BENDER
United News Staff Correspondent.


WASHINGTON, July S.-The sud
den and concerted drived against the
direct primary system gives every as
surance Of becoming a controversial
issue in both major parties. Because
of the bitterness already reflected
among progressive Republicans at the
campaign carried forward by Presi-
dent Harding, members Of his Cabinet
and many of the elder statesmen Of
the G. o. P, the Republican National
Committee is making for a safe port,
entirely out OF range of the threaten
hIg storm.
Conversations with spokesman for
the committee reveal real concern over
the anti-primary propaganda develop
ing. They insist that whatever the
source, those sponsoring it are speak
ing as individuals and not for the
party ITSELF
Attitude of Hull
But, while there also is a strong ele-
ment among the so-called practical
politicians" of the Democratic party,
as desirious as the like element within
the Republican for abolition OF the
direct primary system, Chairman Huh
of the Democratic National Committee
plans to put his party on record as
favoring the primary.
While the Republican national COM
nittee will remain silent, leaving dis
position of the primary issue to the
several States, progressive elements
within that party will continue to fight
against the anti-primary movement.
Senator johnson, California, one OF
the most active opponents Of the pri-
mary system, sees in the situation
grounds for warning the country
against the effort by regular poll
ticians" to arrogate to themselves"
the mower that belongs to the people.

Federal Help

BY FRANK j. TAYLOR,
Times staff COrrespondent

WASHINGTON, July s.-Then
there's Alaska! In Washington re.
Gently. Governor Scott Bone estimated
that $1,000, 900 had been CLEANED
from Alaska since it was purchased
from Russia for $4,000.
And Alaska isn't scratched yet,
the governor added.
Largely undeveloped, mostly pub
lie domain, Alaska still awaits the
pioneer who seeks a home.
Alaska's trouble seems to have
been too many cooks" and too few
real pioneers. Thirty-eight different
government bureaus administer Alas
ka. frequently conflicting in views
and provoking deadlocks. And the
prOspectors, for the most part, who
have gone to Alaska have dug out
mineral wealth and carried it back to
the United States.
They didn't settle and they didn't
invest in Alaska.
Some time soon Congress will get
around to formulating a permanent
policy for Alaska.
Forests, unsurveyed expenses OF
oil fields, coal, copper, gold and other
mineral deposits, enormous water
power possibilities. fishers and a gov
eminent owned railroad are among
your holdings in Alaska.
Three million families can live up
there comfortably and prosper at
forming alone. the Interior Depart
ment estimates.
- They'd freeze to deathr' you say.
What an ideal" exclaims Governor
Bone. THE better part of Alaska is
no colder than the state of New
York, where 100000 people live
without freezing"
