SECRE ETARY FALL FAvORS PRIVATE
 OWN[ RSHIP
SECRETARY FALL IN SPEECH DE- CLAREs HIMSELF IN FAVOR
 DEVELOPMENT ALASKA

NEW YORK, Feb. 3-DecIaring that the government has interferad with business too much already Secretary Fall in a speech before the Women's Department of the National Civic Fed eration declared that development of Alaska's resources is the work of pri- vate interests which must be aided in the work by as little governmental in- terference as possible.
 In continuing Secretary Fall declar- ed tEat he was being charged with the effort to turn Alaska over to preda- tory interests because he was lending his ear to plans for the development of Alaska's oil resources by private capital. He declared that Congress would be asked to permit forty claim ants of oil permits to form an asso- citation for the development of the oil fields. This would be in the nature of an inducement to big capital to make investments. He declared that the gov ernment was inserting itself into the oil business and it should not do so.
 The oil game requires big capital and as there is big risk the returns must be such as to warrant the risk to capital Unless this is done the oil fields of Alaska will remain undevelop- mented for long period The Govern ment must offer encouragement rather than restrictions.
