A PROCLAMATION


Whereas, The preservation Of our for
ests, federal and state, and private, is
essential to our industrial and COM
mercial life, to our strength as a ma
tfon, and to our individual well-being,
and
Whereas, Forest fires, which are
largely the result of carelessness or
thoughtlessness, continue to do great
damage, threatening to deplete and re-
duce our forests to the point at which
they can not longer serve the nation
adequately as source Of timber sup
ply or for watershed protection and
recreation, and
Whereas, The annual observance OF
Arbor Day in the states, and the inter-
est in fire prevention which has re-
suited from Forest Protection Week
heretofore, have done much to awaken
the people to the Importance both of
planting trees and of perpetuating the
forests that are already established,
Therefore, I, Warren G. Harding,
president of the United States, do
urge upon the governors of the various
states to designate and set apart the
week of April 1928, 1923, as Forest
Protection Week, and wherever practi-
cable and not in conflict with state
law or accepted custom, to make Arbor
Day fall within the same week; and
to urge citizens, teachers, officers OF
public instruction, commercial and 9th.
er associations, and the press to unite
in thought and effort for the preserva-
tion of the nations forest resources
by conducting appropriate exercises
and programs and by publishing in
formation pertaining to the waste from
forest fires and ways Of preventing or
reducing 5 .ch losses, in order that our
forests p.ay be conserved for the ines
timabls Service of mankind.
In Witness Whereof, have hereun-
to set my hand and caused the seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington this
5th day Of March in the year of our
Lord one thousand nine hundred and
twenty-three, and of the Independence
of the Unitcd States of America the
one hundred and forty-seventh.

Secretary Wallace Is Right.
(Cordova Times. ]


 To Alaskans there was nothing new or arresting Tn the statement made few days ago by Secretary wallace, when he gave it his conviction that ag- ricuiturl development in Alaska would amount to more than enough to supply Alaskas own needs. Aiaskans themselves have no illusions that point. whatever conceptions otherwise have been enter taned have been almost invariably the ideas of per sons unfamiliar with Alaskan conditions In Alaska 1t is hardly anticipated that Alaskan agricultural products will be of sufficient magnitude to be shipped proftaby to Outside markets. It is not de- slred that they should be. The one great necessity TOT the development of agriculture in Alaska is the iocal demand-the advantage of being able to pro- duco, at much less cost than Outside products the ioodstuns that the Territory consumes Heretofore the great handicap to that realization has been lack ci transportation With the Government railway now the Territory to local should serve to encourage tho farmer to grow fruits vegetables and grains for the Alaskan market The same situation Is true with regard to coal The first and pfimarily important object in the development Alaskan re- sources IS selsupport. That realized considerable htra-ierrltorial commerce created and the cost of Nlhg consequently reduced the general progress of tne ierritory Will proceed along and stable lines Alaska does need to shin agrcutural products to Outside markets; the Territory has other ana more valuable and less competitive materials for that Moreover, the idea that Alaskan coal and iasKah larm products can compete there is a faacy any attempt to prove it otherwise will almost cer- eaihy De attended by failure. But Alaska is entirely capapie or self-support That is sufficient iusti6ca
 oh TOT the development of it's agricultural resources when 1t has achieved that much it will have eono a ress Tor which all Alaskans hope Secretary wa,,ao IS rlgh and nothing is to be gained and mucb ic t DC iost by entertaining any false notions as to tho situation. " !" '"e

ONE OF THE RESULTS OF HARDING'S
 RAILROAD PLAN.

President Hardings pan-rather the plan that has been in the air fer sometime and which he has approvcd-for railroad consultations and consequent the reduction of the number of operating companies and the trackage that will be utilized would reduction in the number of employees engaged in railiCadng. IL would release lot of for the Industries and other activities well point the way for cheaper freight and passenger tariffs.
 There is question but that of the ills the transportation situation in the United States Is the multiplication of railroad service for the terri tory. Competing railroad organizations make it so that freight and passengers often carried more miles than between certain points duplication and duplication of a lot of overhead charges which must be met by those who purchase service from the roads. A great deal of this extra burden is represented in the number of employees in excess of the number that would be required to handle the business if there fewer operating concerns and the most nearly direct haus between certain points were used.

RADICALISM ADVANCING IN MIDDLE
 WEST

Last November J. A. O. Preus, the friend and political proege of the late Senator Knute Nelson. and supporter of the policies of President Harding defeated Magnus Johnson for Governor by plurality Of 14,000 A little than eight months later Magnus Johnson, running on the same platform that he had run for Governor, defeated Governor Preus tlso running the platform on which he had made the previous for Senator by S5O00 plur- ality. The vote the latter election was about $50 900 against 65o000 at the previous election Aside from the Democrats who remained at home because CT knowledge that there chance for the Demo- cratic nominee. there probably more Republicans that did not vote in July than in November but the difference was not great but probably the net gains of the radicals the Republicans were 10000 50, 900 votes
 These figures, particularly when considered in con nection with the showing that being made by Henry Ford in the Presidential polls, would indicate that discontent and radicalism advancing rather than reeeding, in the Middle West least

HOOVER WOULD REMOVE FISHERIES
 FROM POLITICS.

In long telegram to The Empire in which he of Commerce Herbert Hoover says political oraory coes not spawn salmon" MT. Hoover proves his de- claracn by setting forth the indsputabe facts that people have realized for than ten years that
 some method should be adopted the supply ct this valuable food fish and the matter has been discussed and debated amsot continuously during all that time. The remedy for the decreasing supply is Of course, spwaning salmon. and the record shows that it is not arrived through political oratory What is needed is action and that the Secretary of Commerce proposes have He would like to have action through legislation by Congress but if he cannot get il in that way he proposes to get 1t by using such powers already have been lodged in the executive branch of the Government
 Secretary Hoover is at least bringing the fisheries problem to head There will be action-either by Congress or the Executive. There is none who can question the patriotism of the Secrearys decision to settle this matter now. He that his pur- pose is to be fair to all concerned that the main objective is 10 make certain enough salmon arc spawned to keep up the supply of the fish product
 That the Secretary of Commerce is not in favor of doing away with economical methods of fishing may be read between the lines in all that he says On the other hand the closing of the Yukon River to the packers and other action taken indicates that he dces not hesitate to act when he believes neces .Pry because the interests of packers may from { H~Mr. Hoover continues along the route he has

Seward Gateway
 The Juneau Empire rubs it's horny editorial hand over the Gaeways alabaster brow in recent issue for stating that Seward apparently the only port Tn Alaska with sufficient water for the big transport Cambrai to slide up to it's wharf It has since demonstrated that both the Navy Department and the Gateway were wrong in their surmises the Cam brai not only called in at Juneau her way south but went into Cordova well. Knowing the veracity Of the heads of the Navy Department we believed that the statement would slide by unquestioned; but not so. We therefore inform readers that the harbor at Juneau can float a number of vessels the size of the CambraL It would take columns to ex- press our regret the misstatement by the Navy Department and the Gateway However, as our circu- lation is mainly confined to Seward but little harm has been done Sewardite will believe anything bad of Juneau at any time

FOOLISH DECISION EXPLODED.

The trip of the Cambrai and Henderson through the waters of Southeastern Alaska, docking at the Alaskan ports of Metlakatla, Ketchkan, Wrangell, Juneau. Hanes, Skagway ana Sitka, without difficulty of difficulty has exploded the foolish deusion that large yeeecs safely navigate the waters of the. Inside Passage. These vessels near the 500-foot mark in length
 The only waters of Southeastern Alaska those who operated these great transports felt called upon shun those of Wrangell Narrows With that channel properly improved they could easily go through it and give those board opportunity 10 view its beautiful scenery.
