CABLE SYSTEM
CHANGES A R {
NOW PROPOSED
Line from Valdez to Fair
banks to Be Made Tele-
phone System-RR.Line

SEATTLE, Nov 8. A special
to The Times from its Washington
Bureau states that conversion of the
Government telegraph Vine, Valdez
to Fairbanks, to telephone, and in
auguration of new system of Gov
ernment telegraph along the lines
of the Alaska Railroad, Is recon-
mended in the report of General
Squier made public today.
The report also states that the
traffic ON the WashingtonAlaska
cable last summer was the greatest
in the history of the system even
congesting traffic on the Seattle
Sitka cable which will be relieved
By the new cable to be laid next
summer.
The report says the Fairbanks
Valdez line along the trail is not
profitable and the new line planned
along the railroad is ultimately
cheaper.

GOV. BONE HEADS ALASKA RAILROAD
POLICY COMMISSION; NEW PLAN
Expression of Voters of S. T..
Alaska for Division Is Most
Logical Declares Gov. Bone

SEATTLE. NOV. 9.-Goy. Scott C.
Bone, who Is here on his way to
Juneau, declared that the expression
of the voters in Southeastern Alaska
in favor of separation from the re-
mainder CT the Territory was per
foctiy natural and logical He at
tributed the action largely to the
statement of President Harding in
favor of statehood for Southeastern
Alaska at an early date. This de-
claration, Gov. Bone said, brought
about the recent special election.
He declared that the arguments pre-
vailing with the voters was that
the resources and interests of South
eactern Alaska are different from
those of the rest of the country and
that Southeastern Alaska was not
represented in the Territorial Leg
iclature according to population.
Predicts Elimination Commission
Gov. Bone predicted that road
and trail building in Alaska, which
has been under the Alaska Road
Commission of the War Department
in the Interior and under the Bu-
reau of Public Roads of the Depart
ment of Agriculture on the Coast,
would be consolidated under the
Bureau of Public Roads, though
both organization, he said, had done
gccd work.
President Interested in Alaska.
President Coolidge is much in
tercsted in Alaska and will be help
fub to the Territory, l am sure"
said Gov. Bone. "He has a splendid
grasp of the situation. He was in
Seattle as Vice-President. and made
it plain at that time that he was
much impressed with the country S
resources
Manifestations of good will to-
ward President Coolidge are almost
universal" continued Gov. Bone.
HE has many warm friends even
among the Democratic Governors of
the South He said all the Execu-
tives at the recent Congress of the
Governors spoke of the high ability
and fitness of the President.
Will Stay With Alaska.
Gov Bono said that he had nc in
tention of resigning as Governor OF
Alaska. He said:
MY interest in Alaska has in
creased continuously since / first ar
rived at Juneau, and | have plans
for development which | want to
carry out"
MY personal reason for going to
Washington Gov. Bone said, was
to attend conferences on railway or
ganization plans, and | am much
pleased with the results obtained" !"

LONDON, Nov. 9.--Although th 2

ALASKA ROAD COMMISSION Winds
up MOST SUCCESSFUL SEASON IN
ITS HISTORY; COVERS wide AREA

The Alaska Road Commission has
just closed the most successful sea-
son in its history. according to Col
James G. Steese, President. Its in
creased resources permitted much
greater amount of work to be done,
and work was distributed over a
wider area than ever before, he
said
In 1919, work was performed on
less than 5000 miles of the system
of roads and trails devised by the
Commission. In the First Division.
the important Haines-Pleasant Camp
miles out of Haines. In the Second
Division. no work was done north
of the Arctic Circle nor south of the
mouth of the Yukon River In the
Third Division. work was limited to
the area Immediately adjacent to the
Parsons section of the Richardson
Highway The Valdez-Willow Creek
section was closed by complete de.
struction of the road through Key
stone Canyon In the Fourth Divis-
ion, no work was performed south
of Ophir nor north OF the Yukon
River. The entire system was in
bad state of disrepair. largely due
to curtailed appropriations during
the war and uncertainty as to the
future policy of the Federal govern
ment.
Work In Detail

Steese in statement given The
Empire. ''the Commission was reor-
