WHY EUROPE SUFFERS.

INFORMATION furnished b,
the state department to the
United States senate, giving
exact figures, shows that the
1922 budgets of Great Britain
and thirteen nations of CONT
mental Europe provide for the
expenditure of billions for war
preparations while many of
their people are in dire want
and the interest on their debts
goes unpaid. 1t is shown
that lavish expenditures for
ornaments, not the refusal of
America to take part in Euro
pean affairs, is the real cause
of suffering in Europe. Yet
all but two or three of these
nations are members of the
league of nations. The infor.
nation also indicates that
even if they do not enter into
another war, the impoverish-
ed condition of the people
will make most of the Euro
pean markets unsteady and
Improbable for the American d
farmer for a long Period of \
years. For this reason it has :
been suggested that the Am :
,rlcan producer must develop a
he home market and relv S
upon it for a genera az
ion. a'

The governors message
contains many recommends
tons that were expected. The
hopes of taxpayers looking for
relief were never so fervent.
There is a feeling more insis-
tent than ever that the legis-
lature should cooperate with
the executive in bringing the
costs of state government and
state activities down in pro-
portion to the reduction that
has been made in wages and
prices in the process of read
Justment. 1t is we'll, however,
not to expect all that is de-
sired. Not even all that the
governor hopes for may be
granted.
Some Legislators are still
elected to get favors for their
particular localities, and heads
OF departments and commits
sions will be insistent that the
appropriations they are asking
Tor are imperative for the best
interests of the state.
But if the voice of the peo-
pie in the last campaign
meant anything, no law max
ers ever had a better chance
to make sweeping reductions f.
and come home with undim- {
'nished popularity than those
low in session at Boise. l

With the crash of the mark and the wild rush for world business, the in- rush of spectators on the bourse and finally the occupation of the Ruhr, in- dustry has been shaken out of it con- servative methods and the old con- cerns do not know themselves any more.
 Krupps was the most exclusive of all, and yet even Krupps has combin-- ed with Sir Basil Kaharoff on one side and Sigismund Bosel, the Viennese imitation king" on the other.
 Shines let in nobody, but Shines has reversed the process and got in every where else. Otto Wolff, who is the sec ond biggest individual industrial in Germany, following Shines, has com bined with Ottoman Straus, a war pr | fiteer, to change over to a dummy Dutch company, the Phoenix concern, which is one of the biggest Ruhr coal and iron producers.

RIDICULOUS STATEMENTS

So many mis-statements have been made by newspaper writers since the Presidents visit to Seward, that the following, although a little more ab- surd than the average article, will be tkaen as a matter of course by Sew ard readers.
 The Boston Herald recently unbur- dened itself of this bright and scintil- Iating editorial:
 We find a disposition on the part of paragraphers at the time of Presi- dent Hardirg's visit to Alaska to point to that acquisition as one of the tri- umphs ol American policy. We wish we could share that view.
 Up to date the situation is discour- aging. The whole area, which we are told in the geographies, extends as far west of San Francisco as we are east Of that city, contains only 60,000 Americans, and this number is decreas ing at the rate of 10000 a decade
 I've hear much about the railroad on which the president traveled. We ought to hear much. The federal gov ernment has spent $200000,000 on it. There are 5000 miles of it, approXi- mareIy as much road as from here to San Francisco. Does it pay? Of course not The losses which it incurs are prodigi0us. Congress did it at the be- hest 0I the Northwest lawmakers, os- tensibly to develop the territory, buJ in realty to make business for Seattle, the long recognized enTeport oi AL aska. The Seattleans could not bear to see Alaska go out of business, and so they persuaded the government to make this investigation in order to keep Alaska moving. But compared with this railroad, the new barge can nal across New York state is a roar ing success. It is doubtful if there is any transportation agency on earth, in which the percentage of revenue to the investment is so desperate as in the Alaska railroad"

DEVELOPMENT SETBACK

The death of President Harding has set the development of Alaska
 back a decade. Had the late executive lived and been able to carry out his program for the Territory we might have seen many of the drastic re- strictions forced upon us by an unin- formed congress removed and the thirty seven bureaus governing Alas ka reduced to probably one or two. The many glaring misstatements sent out by newspaper correspondents re- garding conditions in Alaska have not helped Alaska any; nor have they hurt her, as these papers are more or less playing politics with intent to dis

THERE IS NO MAN more valuable to a new country than he who starts new industry. The pioneer cannery builder paved the way for that great business; the pioneer fox farmer, the pioneer quartz miner; the pioneer railroad builder, all, gave the first start to a great industry that brings wealth and prosperity to the country. The pioneer promoter always has the hardest task and only those who have great faith in their undertaking, and ability, can succeed. MT. George Ed ward Lewis is to be congratulated on the successful outcome of his efforts to start moving picture production in Alaska, and we believe another great business asset of the Territory has been launched.

credit the administration, and Alaska is unfortunate that she happers to be in the way of the flying missiles.
 It is only an incident of the tip that the correspondents sent out their re ports without first ascertaining the facts, and without taking any pains to verify their statements; and it is doubly unfortunate that these stories were printed without the editors of he various papers knowing they were the veriest bunk, with no foundation to start with. With the exception that the papers stated the President landed in the Territory, there is little fact contained in any Of the rest of the stories. The correspondents had him doing all sorts of bizarre things when in fact he was acting as natural as the rest of us. They misquoted statements places towns and hamlets where they were not, and conversed with men long since dead. They had the Guggen helms owning the Alaska railroad, as serting it was foisted on the govern ment by them at ruin0us price, and made all sorts of ridiculous charges. The Guggies own but five per cent in any holding in Alaska and have never spent a dollar in Seward that anyone knows Of The railroad has done more to develop Alaska than any one enter, prise, and has opened up industries which would have remained dormant unless the railroad had been built. It has given Alaska coal at $10 per ton where We paid SIS and $20 for Cana dian coal previously. It has added five million dollars in taxable properties to the Territory and over ten thous- and inhabitants. It has caused hun dreds of small farms 10 be started ana reduced prices by nearly half Alaska is a little over 50 years Of age. Wha. could the East show in that period at- ter its settlement as compared to the modern towns of Seward, Anchorage, ' Cordova, and Fairbanks, with the hun dred hamlets scattered between?
 What development did Utah, Ari- zona, Colorado, or any western state show in fifty years alter their pur- chase by the United States?
 President Harding, had he lived to carry the message to the ignorant east, would have spread true know ledge of conditions here. He would have disapproved the wild stories of the Robert Service period, and show ed that Alaska was more law-abiding, more independent, and more able to care for herself than any state in the union al the age of fifty years.
 Alaska has paid millions upon mil lions into the government cOtters; it has asked for and received but a very small portion of what it has lavishly given. What it has received is coveted by the states. They would take all and give nothing.
 Since it's purchase Alaska has sent $46,00O,000 to the States; what state can point to this record after a half century of growth, hampered by re. strictions, bureaucracy and conserva- tiOn theories?

TRAGIC ECONOMY

The Navy department has recently ordered the discontinuanJe for a time of the Seward radio station, an eXpen- siye and useful auxiliary to communi- cation with the outside world and with places to the westward. The plea by the department is for economy, il be- ing alleged that the appropriation for the upheep ot the station is not sui ficienl. Il is understood that the rec ommendati0n for closing down came from C0rJova, where another large station is maintained, as likewise at HincninbrO0k
 In case the station here is closed down even though temporarily, it win add greatly to the cost of Seward merchants and others doing business either with ships at sea, or with the towns 10 the westward, as all mes. sages must be relayed to either Cor doya or Anchorage, and thence bE radio 10 their destination, the reauI- Jant expense adding probably loo per cent to the cost ol the message.
 Every incoming steamship this sum mer has had rom one to dozen radio messages for Seward, and at times the operator has been rushed to take care of the big plant and look after the commercial business. In case of break in the cable, this would necessitare messages being Telayed around by telegraph to Fairbanks, ana thence to Valdez, then to Cordova, re, layed to the radio station there, and then sent 10 their destination. Or ships desiring to communicate with Seward would be compelled to com municate with the Anchorage station, or Cordova, thence by wire or cable to Seward.
 The town would be absolutely shut off from communication by vessels un- less it entailed great expense ot time and money. The station must be kept up, the men must work some place, and the outlay other than for current is so small as to be negligible. There are buildings for seven families at the local radio, with fine machine shops, tennis courts, and two large gas en- zines with generators. All this must be looked after by some one; why not add another man or two and keep it open.
 Alaska has not nearly enough radio stations. There should be a chain of stations extending to every camp. It is the modern method of communica-
