Navy Declares War But Foe Is Stray Pup

NEW YORK, March 9-Five agents of the Sccie.y for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, equipped with two wagon-loads of dog-catching de- vices. raked the Brooklyn Navy Yard, fore and aft, in quest of a shivering black and white dog called Gun boat" who had dofied the majesty pf the United States fer three years.
 "Gunboat" was born on a scrap head in the yards in 1920. pettesl by worknen, he tcok up his abode there. and there he remained in peace until a gilt4braided naval officer, spy ing him. ordered him to be ejeetel ,lnder a rulc that prohibited the keeping of pets in the ward.
 But the yard is a big place. with lots of dark crannios, and by watch ing his step 'GunIboas" managed to evade his would-bc evictors year in and year out. .
 Recently the society was called in, and ''Guaboat," observing the absence of gflt-hraid on one of it's agents, mtstook him for a friend and came out to leg for food. He quickly learned Of his mistake. and turned Tor flight when the agent made a hnge for him, but missed.

SITKA DEER ARE
 FRIENDLY WITH PEOPLE

This is deer story.
 Something happened to the lights at the Sheldon Jackson School. On investigation a full sized doe was found jammed in such a way as to cause the trouble. The deer had gone through the Hume into the shop where the juice is made, the screen having been removed during the flood Sunday and Monday.
 ] By the way, from Sunday morning until Monday morning the rainfall was 4.92. the heaviest during the time records have been kept here, for a 24-hour period.
 sC. Nordholm recently spent the night in D fly tent while after wood. 4 Asdeer entered and lay beside him and before leaving the next morn ing, ate half a loaf of bread.
 It may also be recalled that the Government Experimental Station last summer wanted permission to shoot deer to keep them from eating the strawberry plants.

This is equal to 232,2 per cent on the investment, or 3S 23 per an- mum for the years in question:
 He argues that the saving effected shipments, mail contracts. and other items of profit would have brought the total yield of 1922 on the capital invested to 115 per cent.

with the traffic and rates on water routes on the Great Lawes which, he argues, are open for only seven months of the year.
 He concludes his rate comparisons by saying:
 ''It is difficult. and in fact impos sible, to make an accurate estimate to the carrier between rates based upon weight and rates based upon weight and measurement at ship s option; but l believe it reasonable safe to assert that on commercial freight on the Alaska routes the measurement system will yield the carrier at least 38 per cent to 45 per cent more than where the weight alope is taken into consideration. During a season when the rates be- tween Seattle and San Francisco were nominally the same as between Seattle and Juneau the freight bills for merchandise sent from San Fran cisco to Juneau shows the cost from Seattle to Juneau averaged 69 per cent higher than from San Francisco to Seattle.'
 Refers to Railroad Agreement.
 The joint rate agreement between the Alaska Railroad and the Seattle steamer lines is also discussed at some length. Using the tonmile cost as basis for comparison, MT. Rutsgard declared:
 Computation of the ton-mile rates will disclose on the Seattle New York route, after deducting toll at Panama, the ton-mile rate is $000145; on the Seattle -Hongkong route, approximately $0.001; on the Scattle-Lyerpool route, deductinS lPanama toll. the rate is slightly
 mere than $0,0007; while on the Seattle-Anchorage route the ton mile rate is, on carload lots, $0.0122. In other words the tonmile rate in the Alaska route is more than $40
 per cent greater than on the New York route, more than 1,200 per cent greater than on the Oriental route, and more than HOO per cent
 greater than on the Liverpool or
 Bremen route.
 But as before stated, the truth is about 40 per cent worse. Instead of accepting $17 per ton on the Seattle-Anchorage route as the basis of these calculations, the sum of $25 should be taken as more nearly cor rect. Instead of Anchorage being placed by the present steamship lines only about three times as far frcm the United States as is the Orient. it has been placed about four and one-half times as far from the nearest home market"
 After a table showing rates on Alaska water routes and those charged by transcontinental rail- roads, in which actual. freight bills are used, the report said:
 General merehandise can be shipped across the continent in car load lots for about s25 per ion, or rate of about $00s per ton-mile, while the same class of freight, eX- cept for cannefes. however, between, say. Juneau and Seattle. whether in

Suggests Remedy.

The remedy, uHuer present cOnul- tions, asserts the report does not rest in entry of new steamship lines into the field. The ore shipments i of tho Kennecctt Corporation over the Alaska Steamship line gives, IL is argued, that company an advan- 1 tage which operates against open competition. It is suggested, first, ito prohibit large industrial institu- tions from acting as common car riers, directly or indirectly, and to prohibit common carriers from en- gazing in other industries. Such prohibition, after many years of futile attempts at regulation, was found necessary in eastern coal i fields, where a law was some years ago enacted prohibiting coal miners from operating railroads as common carriers and prohibiting railroads from operating coal mines for the public market. The same law, in substance. should be extended to Alaska water transportation.'
 Govermept operation of steamers is also seen as an alternative, the Attorney General declaring: 'I deem 1 it absolutely essential that the Gov ornmcnt be placed in a position to take ever water transportation in 1 Alaska, until the present companies are willing to adopt a policy that Is more conducive to the prosperity of the Territory"
 1 He also advocates the wisdom of allowing the reentry of the Canad- ian lines into the Alaska traffic field.
 He ,is skeptical of obtaining any relief frcm the U S. Shipping Board, declaring: "The principal concern iof the Shipping Board is apparently to build up a strong American Mer- chant Marine. In this they seem bent rpon succeeding even if they have to lay waste the rest of the country doing it.
 Reviews Marine Decision. 1 The reports also reviews the ac- ton brought by Nhe Territory to test the constituiionality of certain pro visions of the Merchant Marine Act of, June ,, 1920, which was decided against the Territory by Jucge R. w. Jennings and later by the Su- preme Court.
 Commenting on that decision it is , said:
 It would seem that so long as the ] Supreme Court adheres to the doc 1 urine set down in the Troy case the ] following provisions could not be held to apply to the Territory. viz:
 ''No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any state"
 No preference shall be given by any regulation of commerce or reve- nue to the ports of one state over these of another
 No state shall pass any bill of attainder or ex post facto law or any law impairing the obligation of con tracts"
 No state shall, without the con

carload lots or less than carload lots, yield the seamship lines an av- erage of not less than S13.h0. per 2,000 pounds, or a rate of fully so ls per tCn-mile. In other words, transportation OH Alaska routes cost 40 per cent more than on transcon- tinental railroads.
 Says Net Profits Large.
 The report disputes the claim made that there is no profit in Alaska transportation Ut present rates. II admits that no authori- tatlve data are at hand on the actual cost of operation, that which exists. il is claimed being yolun- tarily furnished by steamship com panies and is without yefifieation. But 1t continues, we are not en- tirely devoid of Information on tho subject of the steamship companies net earnings.
