ALASKAN REPORT
GOES TO CONGRESS
Greatest Need of Territory
Is Simple Form of Rule,
Bone Asserts.

Official testimony Is in full accord
with the opinion that federal admin
istration in Alaska. through innu-
merable agencies constituting bu-
reaucratic form Of government, is in
efficient. Gov. Scott c.. Bone of the
territory says in his annual report,
made public today.
The system Is too complicated"
Coy. Bone says. ito render satisfac-
tory service, however earnest its
aims. and this fact has been uniform
fy attested and emphasized by those
who have been brought into direct
contact with the system since Alaska
became a territory and upon whom
administration as a whole has chiefly
devolyed. A simplified and centralis-
ed system brought closer home to
Alaska is urgently and obviously
needed to speed the progress of the
territory--a shortening of the. line
OF communication as much as posi-
bic between Alaska and Washington'
rs suggested by the late President, in
order to bring about the closest co.
operation and understanding between
the national agencies operating in the
territory"
Needs COnser> alton.
Alaska requires conservation and
gives its steadfaSt support to such
conservation, the governor says.
Gains in commerce. exports and i'm
ports were most gratifying and indi-
c2tive OF prosperity, Gov. Bone adds.
while all communities on the lines of
travel. water and rail, shared meas
urably in the benefits of the influx
OF tourists, which was the largest in
Alaskan history.
Gov. Bone says the year 1923 will
ever be memorable and stand out as
the most notable in all the history of
successful year, he says. not in actual
development or unprecedented pro-
dWCtion Of wealth, but in making
known to the world Uncle Sans iast
remaining frontier and concentrating e
general attention on it. For the first
time President of the United States,
accompanied by three members of his
cabinet, visited Alaskan SOIL pre-
ceded by a delegation of members of
Congress.
OF these visits Gov. Bone says:
"Seriously planned and steadfastly
devoted to inquiry and study. the far
reaching benefits of these visitations
are manifest and of incalculable
value" Gov. Bone recommends plac
ing Of Alaskan affairs under one de-
partment head in Washington, COM
plete authority within A .aska over
the fish cries of the territory and con-
sclidation of all law enforcing &
agencies under the Department OF
Justice.
