Most everyone admits that Mime

sufficiently managed by Commission
err Babcock. And it shows unusual
alertness for government agency
to respond SO quickly to a general
demand by painting a line down the

much for safety on paved roads and

The Wisconsin state highway en-
gineer stated in recent address
that if the people of that state
would be contented with the same
kind of schools and roads as they
had 20 years ago they could save
$60,000,000 a year on taxes. The
saving looms large, but would the
people consider making the deal?
Assuredly not. Good roads and good
schools are now considered indis-
pensable, and although our expendit-
ures in these directions border on
extravaganza, it. is safe to assert

ion that the total and extent Of

general way, have kept in toueh

There is abundant reason Cor
the era of prosperity and develop
ment that is now being cxpenen cd
by the South" said Mr. Hertz.
''The prosperity of the South is Che
soundest Of any prosperity, for it
is founded upon good business prin-
ciples."
Mr.. Hentz pointed to the fact
that the South's natural resources
are being developed as never be-
fore. He said that reports receiv-
ed by his firm showed that new in
dustries are springing up in many
Southern industrial centers and
manufacturing is at its highest state

TERRITORIAL CAPITAL-WHERE?

A letter recently issued by the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce protesting against the erection of Capitol building at Juneau, and requesting the assistance of other Chambers of Commerce throughout the Territory in making their protest effective. The letter referred to was received by the Valdez Cham Der of Commerce, and in so far as large majority of Alaskans, if they have any inter est in the matter at all, are undoubtedly of the opinion that as the capital city of the Territory Juneau could be improved upon, we presume the members of the Valdez body are in accord with the Anchorage chamber, and will probably protest against the erection of a Capitol building at Juneau at this time.
 The question then arises, where would the Anchorage Chamber of Commerce locate If it should be given the opportunity to make the choice? Is that body disinterestedly urging any other place than Juneau which is more centrally located? The letter says the cap ital should be located at ''some city on the line of the Government Railroad, and in the center of the coming development area" Does this mean Seward or Fairbanks, or Wasilla, or does is mean just Anchorage?
 Outside of Southeastern Alaska 1t IS quite likely that every Chamber of Commerce will
 
 Juneau at this time, but whether they would indorse moving the capital to Anchorage IS another matter In the first place Anchorage is an offspring of the Government Railroad. If has had the benefit of large share of the sjxtv-odd millions that project has cost, and through Government initiative the coal mines adjacent to the town have been opened. Thus the town has profted by many times more than any other town in Alaska from Govern ment expenditures, and to the average Alaskan 1t would appear that Anchorage has had lt- tie the best of other Alaskan towns. Most towns would be satisfied with this and turn its attention to the vast resources which Anchor age claims lies ad djacent to the town. Hercn lies their logical field of endeavor. The eX- ploitation of these resources will bring in creased population and prosperity. Success will never come through seeking that which ia vour ncghbor's. for even though it is at tained there has also been annexed an enemy who will lose no opportunity to do harm.
 Valdez stands ready to assist any town m Alaska in any project which it may put for ward for the benefit of the Territory, even to moving the capital, if a majority of the people wish it, but until a majority of the people indicate they wish the capital moved and to what place. we do not believe the Chambers of Commerce of Valdez, Seward, Cordova or Fairbanks will ndorse any project to move the capital to any one of these places, for, like Anchorage, probably all of these towns are in receptive mood.-Valdez Miner.
