about his authority"
London. March 21.--(By The Asso-
ciated Press) Prime Minister
Lloyd George is determined to ask
for vote of confidence all the morn
ing papers agree. There are two
stories, however. as to how the de-
mand will be made.
The first version presented by the
Times. is that Mr. Lloyd George is
sending a message to Austen Cham
berlain, through Sir Robert Horne,
asking ratification of the UniOnist
leaders recent assurances of sup
port either by Unionist party meeting
or in the headquarters. The premicl
it is said will be satisfied with eth
er alternative, but if both are reject
ed his threat to resign will be ex-
pected to be fulfilled The Daily
Mail concurring In this version, says
Lloyd George intention seems to he
to get a vote of confidence in his msi-
sion to the Genoa conference. and. if
he receives it to treat it as a conf
dence in his leadership of the cOali-
tion. The newspaper. however, now
believes that his threat of resigna-
ton was only a bluff. INTENDED to
drive the independen Unionists out
of the official ranks of the party
leaving him to consolidate his latest
move is interpreted as a further at
tempt to split the conservative party
The other story ignores the report
of the premier's insistence upon the
support of the Unionists. and says
that when he returns to London next
week, he will submit to the House
of Commons motion in favor of
the Genoa conference and. in his
speech supporting the motion. set
forth the governments conference pol
icy. The vote upon the motion ac-
cording to this version will not neces-
sarily be deemed vote of confia-
ence but Strengthening of the pre-
mier's position as the British repre-
sentative at Genoa
Those who represent Mr.. Llvod
as intending to ask for a vote either
from the House of Commons or the
Unionist party saw that such vote
certainly cannot be obtained from
the party and that the Unionist lead
ers have been placed in an awkward
position by the Premier's alleged de-
mand

Old Trapper Has a
 Horrible Experience
Wrangell Sentinel.

K. P. Parks. an oid-time trapper, was brought into Petersburg Sunday evening in critical condition, having been burned almost to death on the previous day.
 Mr. Parks was living aboard his gas boat, Carl, when he found himself frozen in at Pybus bay. Upon getting up Sunday morning he undertook to start firewith coal oil. When the fire did not light MT. Parks picked up the can and poured more oil in the stove. However, it was discovered later that he had saturated his wood with gaso- line instead of coal oil. It is therefore no wonder that while he was using the can the second time there was an ex- plosion that set him on fire from head to foot. He rnshed out of the boat and jumped through the ice into the water. He then returned to his boat and, hay ing DO more clothes, wrapped quilt around his body and got into row boat, and, using his oars to break the ice in front of him, spent the greater part of the day working his way through the ice out into open water. Upon reaching open water he made his way to Brothers island. arriving there almost dead from suffering and ex- posture. He was discovered by "San Juan" Smith, who came to his rescue. After being given first aid by Mir. and M rs. Smith he was taken by them to Petersburg on their gas boat. Mr. Parks was turned over to Dr. Pigg. The patient is still alive. with possi- bilitv of recovering.

Interior Secretary Fall
 Planning to Come to
 Alaska Next Summer

The Washington Times. speaking of the announced plans of Secretary Fall to visit Alaska during the coming sum- mer, says:
 Secretary of the Interior Fall. one- time railway builder of the West, is going back to his old job.
 "He plans trip to Alaska to direct , personally the work of putting the finishing touches on the Government s railroad between Seward and Fair : banks.
 cit will take S4. 100000 to tinish the railread,' the Secretary is quoted as saving "A bill providing this sum has been reported out of committee for passage insthe Senate and it seems cer- tain the sum will soon be available. When it is, am going to give explicit directions to the chief of operation and construction and his engineers that : this money will have to cover all the expenses of finishing up the road, in cluding rolling stock and other neces- sary material. And Pm going up there to give some personal supervision to the work. I used to help build rail- roads insthe West, and l think l can help the Alaska project along in a rather practical way. had hoped the road, as originally authorized by Con- gress, would be completed next sum- . fner but that hardly seems likely DOW.
 IA large portion of the road is al- ready in operation, principally in car rvipg coal from the Alaska mines, but also doing small freight and passen- . ger business. ( it,is Secretary Falls in- tention to inaugurate freight and pas .- senger service over the entire line as soon as possible.
 ..The opening'of the Alaska railroad - is part of a new policy the Harding ad- ministration has decided upon in re- spect to Alaska. This the Secretary describestas the open door policy. by which the resources of the rich Terri t ory will te developed to he utmost and: lands and their mineral content placed In the hands of settlers.
 ''As the first step in this direction a bill is pending in Congress for consoli- dating the .thirty-elght commissions and bureaus now directing Alaskan af- faire into central body, to be made a part of one of the governmental de- partments, most likely the Department of rhe Interior"

Million and Half Goes
Into North Oil Field
This Is Estimate of Sum Be Put Into Area Before
Season Ends; Nine Producers in CONNER
Cial Quantities.

More than 81 ,500,000 will have
been spent in the Kevin-Sun-
burst oil field of Montana by the
end of this season. in purchase
Of leases. drilling and in organ
ization Of companies, according
to Carl C. Adams, who has re-
turned from survey Of the dis
trict as field assistant to the state
board Of equalization.
Nine wells are producing oil in
commercial quantity in the field
and eight are producing gas in
marketable volume, according to
Adams. SiXty-one operators in
the field, in one stage or another
are sufficiently advanced that
they may be counted on to COM
plete their wells. Of these, six
have finished drilling and remov-
ed their rigs, while Is have COM
pleted their wells but have not
yet taken away their rigs.
Adams report says:
Mine wells are producing oil
in commercial quantities, their
total daily production being go
barrels, or an average of rs bar
rels daily for each well. Eight
are producing gas in commercial
quantities, with total daily flow
of approximately 100000 cubic
feet.
Fifteen wells are now drilling
in the field, nine outfits are shut
down, II additional rigs are up
and the material is on the ground
at locations for nine more rigs,
There are Ill ,620 acres under
lease in the field, according to
the report, of which 66,760 are
held by local companies and the
remainder by interests outside
of the state. In addition, it is
estimated that between $4,000 |
and 10000 acres of potential oil
producing land is held by individ |
lals, either the fee owners of the T
premises or by outright lease
speculators.
There is a considerable acre
age to which the United States
government still retains the oil
and gas rights and which has
not yet been applied for" says
