WANTS BIC SUMS
FOR MAPPING u. S.
$780, 900 Annual Appropria'
ton Recommended by
Gen. Beach,.

Recommendation that Congress be
asked to appropriate 100000 an.
nually until the project of prepar-
ing system of tactical maps Of con-
tinental United States has been COM
pleted. is contained in the annual re-
port of Maj. Gen. Lansing H. Beach,
chief of Army engineers. made public
yesterday. The work of producing
the maps is declared to be Of first
Importance from the standpoint of
national defense and 1t at present re-
duced ito the lowest ebb" by lack of
available funds.
The task of mapping the country,
Gen. Beach says, will require a great
many years. He points out that for
the present the operations are con-
fined necessarily to the areas of
particular Importance, lying within
100 miles of the coast and border
lines.
$4,000 Square Miles.
This strip" the report says. 100
miles wide, contains approximately
$4,000 square miles. Base maps exist
for only about one-half of these $751;
600 square miles, and the information
needed for the compilation of tactical
maps has been gathered for only
about one-third of the area covered
by the base maps.
The work of producing military
maps of our frontiers alone-of first
Importance for defense-iS, therefore
still one of considerable magnitude.
The appropriation of only $4,000 for
military surveys and maps during the
last three fiscal years has reduced
field work to the lowest ebb. 1t is
earnestly recommended that steps be
taken to secure as soon as practicable
regular appropriation of at least
100000 each year in order that
steady progress will be made
Surveys were confined in the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1923, Gen. Beach
says. to the states of Vermont, Mas
sschusetts, Rhode Island and Texas.

Mr.. Vrooman, an Illinois farmer,

the Wilson administration, brought

COAST OFFICIAL REPORTS
 ROCK MINERS IN DEMAND

Wright Wenrich, game warden for the First Divisicr and S-oficio collector of school tax, returned to Juneau recently from an extended trip which took him over a good portion of the district. In his of- fcal capacity he visited many small quartz operations and in nearly every case he told a representative of the Empire, there is an urgent demand for more men, both miners and surface men.
 At Hawk Inlet where R. K. Neill and his partner, Williams, are op- erating, the latter being in charge, an effort was made to get 15 men from Ketchikan but not one was ob- tained. About 20 men are employed and as many more coul be used to advantage. The same conditions were found to exist at Funter Bay, where Peckovich is working a crew of 15 men and Otteson and Tubbs about half a dozen but both desirous of doubling their forces.
 Temporary trouble is being exper- fenced at Jualin, where water is in- terfering with work on the 5000. foot tunnel but it was hoped the trouble would be obviated in a few days and work resumed. Mir. Wen. rich says thede are excellent show. ings at all the properties visited by him and that excellent reports come from William Henry Bay, where the Endicott Company is operating ana where machinery will be installed al an early date that will increase the capacity of the plant from 30 tc 150 tons per day.
 Taking cognizance of all the smaller concerns, there Is more ac tivity in quartz mining in the coun try contiguous to Juneau than there has been at any time within the past seven years.

INDIANS LOSE TRIBAL ARTS BY ADOPTING WHITE MANS WAYS
OKLAHOMA CITY. July 5-Ths

OKLAHOMA CITY, July 5-The rapid adoption of the civilization of the white man has resulted in the loss to the Five Civilized Tribes of at least six of the principal arts of their forefathers, according to J. B. Thoburn, of the Oklahoma His torical Society.
 The lost arts include those of pot tery and crockery making, the mak- ing of horn utensils and ornaments the use of Indian weapons and their manufacture, the tanning of hides, the construction of dwelling houses and the preparation of foods by h. dian methods, MT. Thoburn said
 Acceptance of the ready-made ar ticIes of the white man and their added convenience are accounted for as the contributing causes to the decadence in these arts.

WHITE PASS BLOCKADE

So long as foreign transportation companies are permitted to domin- ate the upper Yukon river the Alas ka Railroad will not receive it's just proportion of tourist travel coming 10 Alaska during the sum mer months So long as foreign transportation officials are permit ted to stand guard at the river gateway to Interior Alaska, few travellers will find it possible to get beyond Dawson. A blockade has been established by the White Pass in an effort to divert travel from the Alaska Railroad and 1t is work ing so effectively that only three passengers were able to slip through Dawson to connect with the steamer Yukon on the last voyage Of that craft to Nenana.
 The News already has related how the White Pass sought to discour- age a California young lady from making the trip to Nenana by way of the upper Yukon. But for the -r. ..G -Lo Id f~;o,,5- ;- Aarara who were able to advise her, this applicant for passage through the blockade would have. been turned back before she started She insist ed on coming through however, and was rewarded by 8 most enjoyable steamer ride down the beautiful Yukon, without delay or inconven- fence of any kind. #...-:.
 But not all travellers have friends in Nenana to advise them how 70 run the blockade successfully and the result is that very few are mak- ing the trip down the Yukon this summer, notwithstanding the fact that a considerable proportion of the hundreds who have visited Daw- son thus far this summer have ex- pressed 8 deire to see more of the Interior country and 10 return to the coast by way of the Alaska Railroad. Applicants for passage on the last sailing of the Yukon are re- ported to have been told they could not go becaue of the presense of explosives in the cargo. That is probably why only three through passengers reached Nenana on the Yukon. .=.....
 Such tactics bring benefit to the White Pass. The Alaska Railroad must have all the passengers and ton. mage it can get and if the White Pass contiues to pursue its present policy the government eventually will be forced 10 invade Canadian waters. A couple of good boats and lit tie advertising would speedily diver. practically all of the upper Yukon traffic to the American through line In the meantime, however, very considerable number of pleasure seekers are being stopped at Daw- son and beyond in order that all o4 their vacation dollars may be retain ed by the Canadian monopoly.
