CUSTOMS REPORT
 FOR LAST YEAR
Imports Eighteen Million and Ex- ports Twenty-Four Million Less
 Than During 1920

That Che year 1921 was a dull one In Che line of both imports and ox- ports for Alaska is apparent i'm Che annual report just issued by collec- tor of Customs John C. Mcbride In fact. both imports and exports were less than those of any year in thc past seven and S1S.0OO. LOGO and S24.- 900. 1000. respectively. than those of 1920.
 Imports for 1921 amounted to 22O,209.22S ;those Of 1920 to S38,- 418.473.
 Exports for 1921 amounted to S45.7l5.33S; those Of 1920 to }69,- .911.432.
 During 1917 the banner year in Alaska's history. imports amounted to S4f331.6OO and exports to S96,- 693.860. both considerably more than double what they were in 1921.
 In explanation Of Che mighty de- crease in both imports and exports, @ number Of causes may be given. the principal ones being that but few Ash cannerie8 operated last year ow- ing to disorganized conditions Of Che market and practically an the large mining concerns curtailed their Out- put fifty per cent or more on ac- count Of the low price Of copper and Che high cost Of operating both cop- per and gold mines. In this respect. the outlook for 1929 is much bright CT now than was that of a year ago.
 Travel statistics show that pracu- eally as many people left the Terri tory last year as arrived and that. in the matter Of population. she held her own but with no perceptible in- crease.
 Although an on year for cannerics. hsh products exported in 1921 amounted to S22.929.1S3. being a fraction more than ono-half of on ihe exports combined. Copper ore came next Co fish products. its value being ST97A27O. with gold and al- yer to the value of S7350.1f2. For the same period fur to the value Of S3.3OO.O22 was exported.
 The imports to the four divisions of Che Territory during 1921 were: First Division. S7.322.51O; Second Division. S1.35O,459; Third Division. s8.657.66f: Fourth Division. $l- 043.552. Tho importations Of co1- struction material for Che govern mont railroad to the Third Division are apparent in the above.
 Arrivals in Alaska last year were l17157. being 5000 less than in 1920.
 Departures from Alaska last year were 173O1. being a little less than 9.000 for 1920.

DAMAGE DONE
 BY HIGH WIND
From Sunday Evening Until Friday "The Wind She Blow-Bimeby
 She Blow Some More'

It was O profound relief Co tho people Of Gastinoau Channel to wako up Friday morning and see that Che Taku. which had ragged an week, had about blown itself out. For the first umo it was possible to take an in- ventory of Che damage caused by Che high wind and flying debris. 10 has been estimated that the damage Co buildings. signs. fences. etc., will run close to {5.000, probably much more The cost of replacing plato glass win run Into the thousands alone. besides the cost Of replacing and repairing roofs. electric signs, windows. etc. .all over Che city. Pos sihly Che heaviest losses were ex- porionced by the Winter & Pond studio. where most of the roof was blown on. and Che zynda Hotel, where Che big electric sign on top of Che building was blown down, completely domolishing the sign and breaking out several windows in Che upper story as it fell Three large plate glass windows were broken in tho Valentine iewelry store and building. and several plate glass fronts In the Brunswick building were knocked out. At least 50 per cent of Che business houses eXpori- enced some loss. Douglas also, re- ports considerable damage of a sim- liar nature Tho cold weather caused much damage to plumbing and this. too. can be blamed on Che Taku, as tho temperature was hardly cold enough Co freeze well protected pipes had it not been for tho penetrating wind. The wind on Che Channel made it unsafe for gasboats Co leave the floats. and ovon thero they had to ho watched closely. Throughout Che worst of the storm Che Juneau Ferry & Navigation Co. kept up It's schedule and members of the crews are to be commended for their hard work and loyalty In keeping mp com munIcauon between Juneau and Douglas Island points
 Few realized that on Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock Che temperature was lower than at any time since December 26. 1917, whom Che thor- momctcr read two degrees below zero. according Go tho records Of the Weather Bureau For a hvc-minute period beginning at i0:22 a. m. Thursday. Che velocity Of tho wind was 33 miles per hour the maxi mum for tho week while Che eX- trcmo velocity was ll miles per hour on Wednesday evening.
 Tho latest reports coming into the Weather Bureau from other stations last night and this morning are as follows.
 Tananan-S degrees below zero.
 Nome -16 degrees above zero.
 Valdez % degrees below zero.
 sitka -IO degrees above zero.
 Juneau iii degrees above zero.
 Mr. Summers. Chief of the Weath- or Bureau. states that tho tompera- ture win probably continue as at present for tho next 2i hours. with variable and brisk winds.
