THE CASE OF ALASKA

restriction they could undoubtedly be
exploited more rapidly and moro pro-
fitably for the men doing the eS-
plotting but II is claimed by tho con-
servationisis that such exploitation
the people of the United States as
whole cannot afford.
ALASKAN WEALTH ACCESSIBLE
The coal and oil In Alaska were.
under the last administration. lonG
withheld from public entry. Now that
the coal and oil leasing bills have been
passed, these resources may, be dcvel-
opcd under tho now laws. which arc
certainly lcn!ent enough. All OF the
erals, water power. like her agricul-
, tural land. timber. coal and oil are
accessible to development.
In spite OF this fact. Alaska has
suffered a severe slump during the
war. Her white population Is said to
have declined onc-third. Nome has only
10 per cent OF the population OF
, its pslmy days. Tho government
railroad reached Fairbanks, says
the wags. Just in tlmc TO take ont tho
population. Tho salmon packing In
dustry is no. making the huge returns
1t once made. The production OF gold
has dropped IS per cent. since 1916
and the number OF men employed In
placer mining has been cut in half.
Government Interference. conscrva-
tion and red-tape arc brought forward
by one sidc OF the controversy as tho
cause of It all Give us n free hand
to do anything We like with the re-
sources OF Alaska and VIC will make
tho land hum" say tho business mon.
The conservationists reply that Alas
ka's slump is part OF the slump which
has hit the whole world. and which is
being felt in every part OF the United
~l,4.- Ia L n Z.
that Alaska, handicapped by her dis
tance from markets and her limited
carriers. should suffer most. They say
that each OF the phases OF the Alaskan
slump can be definitely traced to a
cause in the present prices which ahe
is able to get for her commodities.
At the same time. they agree that
long-rangc Federal administration Is
nuisance in Alaska. Some 80 gov
crnmcnt bureaus control tho resources
of that land and nearly everything
must be referred 10 Washington. They
favor the relieving OF this situation by
the creation OF a local board consist
ing Of representatives of each OF the
Federal department Interested in Alas
ka. and empowered to act with the
greatest promptness and considerable
discretionary latitude. They also ia
vor the abolition of certain unworka-
bic laws. such as that which forbids
a man to take up land on both banks
of a salmon stream. even tho that
stream be a mere brook with one sal
mon in it. Federal aid in developing
transportation in Alaska Is also a dire
need they say. Tho railroad IL only
one etep. Alaska needs both highways
and shipping.
But the Roosevelt policy OF conser-
walton. they urge must not he aband-
oned II the Alaskan resources are to
yield their full value to the American n
people as q whole.

The Railroad Problem

The railroads of the United States continue to pre-
sent thoroy unsatisfactory conditions, and ap
pears to be able to solve the problem The trouble is due
to the fact that the public expects something that
is, and will always be absolutely impossible. Present
unsatisfactory conditions will continue until it is general
ly understood and admitted that no human being or
group of human beings do what the people of the
United States expect the railroad men to do at the
present time.
1t is utterly impossible TO pay to the of
railroad stocks and bonds fair return their invest
men give to railroad workers wages that fair
pensaton for the services they render give to
the public freight and passenger service at rates which
the passengers and shippers satisfied to pay.
One class of people desire to stop the dividends and
the result of dividend choppng is generally apparent
in the mpossbility of getting more capital, which is
greatly needed for additional equipment bettements
and extensions.
Another class desire to wages far below the
point at which self respecting American citizens
live with their families in well being.
Still another class continually harping upon a
reduction of rates, in spite of the fact that American
railroads have been and carrying freight and pas
aeneers below the actual cost Of that service.
If railroad investors guaranteed regular interest
upon their bonds and regular dividends upon their stock
they would be satisfied.
II all railroad workers permitted to fix their
wages and terms Of employment, there would be no
complaint from that
If shippers and passengers could decide for them
selves what they willing to pay for tickets and
freight charges they would continue to be well pleased
1t would take hundreds of millions Of dollars every
from the United States treasury to settle the rail
road problem satisfactorily to the three classes named
and then the protest from the taxpayers would make
conditions than they are now. ,

Political partisans who seeking for

action.
When the work of the conference is finished and
the treaties presented to congress- there will be
abundant opportunity discuss the treaties in all their
details and TO take such further action craftsmanship,
parsanship personal prcjudces may prompt.
1t is not probable that the opponents of the treaties,
whatever their motives will get very far in opposition
to ratification. It is unquestionable that these agree
great step in human advancement and equally
that they free from the chief objections that
urged against the covenant Of the League of Nations
Apart from the intrinsic merits of the treaties there
is tremendous public sentiment in their favor steps
