Seattle Times !

Announcement that Secretary of the Interior Eubert Work and Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace will make a joint tour of Alaska this summer holds promise of many needed reforms in the the thirty-eght Federal bureaus that rule the Terri tory.
 In the past. between the Interior and the Agri- cultural Departments there has been rivalry SUD- eryision of and direction activities with the result that in important matters there num- erous instances of dual and conflicting authority. For instance, the Interior Department with jurisdic tion over public lands and the Agricultural Depart ment in charge of national forests function largely the Interior Department bureaus, like of work in districts under the Agricultural Depart ments Forestry Bureau which has reserved 20,OO0,- 900 acres along the coasts. the accessible parts of Alaska Departmental jurisdiction and supervisory rights, often puzzling to bureau officials themselves are utterly confusing citizens generally and have operated against the development of every resource and every part of the Territory.
 Recognizing the evils of the northern situation President Harding early in his administration putting all the affairs of Alaska, except fisheries under the Departnont of the Interior but bureau ciefs that would have been affected adversely aroused both inside and outside Government circles op- position to the executives proposal that nothing was ldone concerning it.
 From the Presidents suggestion however has de ycloped an earnest desire the part of his sub o"dnates to cooperate in Alaskan affairs Federal officials have to realize that the Government 2 paternal policy prevents individual initiative and they ere disposed to be generous in their interpretation CT restrictive legislation in order encourage private enterprise But so long bureaucratic discretion rather than liberal law controls in the Norhand it's resources await development
 The Interior and Agricultural Secretaries on their visit to Alaska will one of the worlds great -reasure vaults. They hold the key it. If so n- eined' they can open some of it's riches to this generation.

John Drew.

New York Post

(New York Post
 John Drew has fairly the honor conferred upon him by the great host of his personal friends and public admirers. Fer fifty years he has con tribued largely to the enjoyment of all intellige playgoefs and incidentally 10 the credit of the pro- ession of which for long he has been the ornament Throughout his life he has been faithful conscen- tious able worker and his career though running go consanly in the limeligh has never been tainted by any breath of scandal. Not only his skill in his own craft but his character man justified his selection to the chief seat among the players that was once occupied by Edwin Booth.
 If he is not quite entitled to take rank with the very brightest stars in the theatrical Armament he nas shone in his own sphere with a very steady ustre For almost half century he has been reckoned among the most pleasing and expert interpreters of the heroes of modern light comedy from the early lays of Pinero to those of Somerset Vaughan His successes in that line innumerable and were que as much to his artistry to his vein of original humor. They proved, in sense an obstacle to his progress in the more imaginative characters of the more literary artfcal romantic comedy. In Benedck he fell a little short of tri- ufnph but he won distinction in the brilliant part or Charles Surface, associated with such names as Lester WSllack and Charles Coghlan His fame must always rest largely upon his notable achieve ments with Augustin Daily, but it suffered no abate- men under the Frohman management and was perhaps even more firmly established by such pieces as Rosemary. and "The Liars"
 He is well graced actor if ever there was one and happily there is need now to allude to his leaving the stage. Soon he is to play Sir Peter feazle Everybody will hope that this may prove the masterpiece of his creation that he may live tu embody It and other parts of cid for many happy years

METROPOLITAN TRAFFIC PROBLEMS.

The inramuncipal traffic problem is constantly present in the larger cities The nultitude of people that must go from place to another within the city and the tremendous amount of freight and packages and messages requiring transfer have pre- sented perplexing difficulties 10 those who have been called upon to manage metropolitan affairs
 In coping with these matters New York has usually led Naturally so, because being the great est and most populous center of urban residents in lhe history of the world she has them present ed to her first. She first have the traffic cop ]" and the Broadway Squad" became known through out the country She first to have the IL trains and in the time these were followed by the subwaya

CANNERY CONTRIBUTIONS TO
 PROSPERITY.

The statement of August Busehmann that the Pert Alhorp cannery had expended for Alaska labor, Alaska and for material and supplies purchased from Alaskans approximately s67,000 last year and that it would have expended s11.000 if it had able to procure box shocks from Alaska mills Is direct Iefutation of the statement often heard that Alaska gets nothing in the way of trade otherwise from the canneriea This is the record of just of about two cannerics that operated in Southeastern Alaska last year. It would be con- seryative to estimate that all the eanneres of South eastern Alaska paid out in this Territory for the items mentioned in excess of $2,600.00o In other words the cannery expenditures in tis section of Alaska amounted to S200 more for each adult person of the population of the First Division.
 Could We have better proof that the cannery business is very important factor Southeastern Alaska prosperity and that it is worth saving?
 When one considers this statement in connec- ton with made by Mr. Robertson which showed that of fifteen eanneries which he represents in Aaska cnly two had made any profit in the last four-year period il ought to suggest great care in oea1ng with this industry. Both the fisheries and mining industries in Alaska have been operating on precautions foundations during years.
