American Union and said in some of these the losses are not being made up while Alaska once more is gaining in everything which testi- fies to prosperity"
 He added. Anyhow, we have come these latter days to appraise population by quality rather than by quantity and Alaska will loom big in any quality test"
 Cites Favorable Comparison
 The President found Alaskas main mineral production to compare ia vorably with the condition existing in the same mineral industries for the world at large. He declared that the gold and copper production of the world had fallen off faster than the gold and copper prduction of Alaska and that there Is every reason to believe the output of these metals would be restored as soon as the worlds economic conditions are right ed
 Continuing, he said:
 "The greatest Alaskan industry. stands in an entirely different rela- tion than either gold or copper. I, refer to the fisheries. which. in present wealth producing potency far exceed the mines"
 Danger In Everlasting
 The product of the fisheries indus try. he declared, lis far too great for the good of the Territory, for if 1t shall continue without more gen. eral and effective regulation than Is now imposed, it will presently exhaust the fish and leave no basis for the industry.
 As to the salmon fisheries, he said, "I do not need to enlighten the people of the Pacific Coast who understand the subject but many others lack understanding" He re- viewed the life cycle of salmon and declared the disappearance of salmon in other waters should warn the country to conserve them in Alaskan waters. He said "It Is vastly more easy to declare for protection and conservation of such resource than to formulate an equitable program" He added that the results of fish hatcheries are "still conjectural and controversial
 There Is encouragement In the almost unanimous agreement in Al aska,' he stated, that regulation must and shall be enforced, and we must apply a practical wisdom to the varied situations as the salvage tI,., n kind of prohibitory measures. It is urged that immense investments in Alaskas fisheries and canneries would be geratly injured by such reduction in catch. To this 1t may well be replied that canneries would have better have their catches re- stricted by Government regulation for time than to be exterminated in few years through their own excesses. By the establishment of reserves along the coast we have already accomplished much More restriction is necessary and urgent. Their conservation must be effect ed"
 Supports Hoover's Position
 The President unreservedly SUD- ported the position of Secretary Hoover on the fisheries question and gave notice that he would not be misled by demagogic appeals made for political advantage. He said:
 "If Congress cannot agree upon program of helpful legislation, the reservations and their regulations will be further extended by execu- tive order. If there is defiance it is better to destroy the defiant in vestor than to demolish a national resource which needs only guarding @ fSontjuuad son pase frvvo lf i,. IA

OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS

The Chief Executive recommended more restriction on salmon fishing the Territory's greatest industry. and promised if Congress withheld helpful legislation he. by executive order, would extend the present reserva- tons and their regulations.
 Restrictions with respect to utiliza- tion of the forests, he said. might well be frightened.
 The development of Alaska coal mines must await time and the nor. nal urging of economic conditions, he submitted.
 " The Government. he added. should do whatever Is necessary to encour- age leasing and development of the oil lands
 Other conclusions presented by the President were: that generous ap. propriations should be made for road building; that the Federal govern ment should be more liberal in en. couraging scientific. technical and demonstration work of agricultural agencies, and that the Government should retain the ownership and op. eration of the Alaska Railroad.
 Optimist on Alaska
 Presenting his preliminary report here in recognition of Puget Sound as "The Gateway to the Territory" the Nations Chief Executive assert. ed that he is altogether an optimist on Alaska and it's future"
 Continuing, he said 'I do not be lieve Alaska can be forced or that it should be. There is no need of Government managed. Federally paid for, hothouse development.
 "There must be no reckless sac rificing of resources which ought to be held permanent in order to turn them into immediate profits
 "Where there is a possibility of betterment In the Federal machinery Of administration, improvements should and will be effected. hut there Is no need for sweeping reorganiza tion."
 Praises Citizenship Regarding the people he found in Alaska. the President said:
 "There is no finer citizenship in all of the United States, no more promising a childhood anywhere In deed in this citizenship and in this vigorous childhood lies the solution of the Alaskan problem"
 He said he would undertake nc more than preliminary report at this time as "he who undertakes to forecast the future of Alaska and formulate program for it's realiza. tion on the strength of such fleet. ing glimpse as has been permitted us. will be a far wiser and a far bolder man than I am"
 Alaska For Alaskans
 The President openly put himself and his Administration on record for the utilization of the Territory resources for the benefit of the in habitants of the far northern coun try, declaring:
 Our adopted program must he a program of Alaska for Alaskans There are few similar areas in the world that present such natural invitation to make state of widely varied industries and permanent char. acter."
 He reviewed and listed the re. sources of Alaska. pointing out that three-fourths of it's area lay south of the Arctic Circle. He asserted
 If the Films owned Alaska they would. in three generations. make 1t one of the foremost states o modern times'
 He attributed the loss of population In Alaska largely to the World War pointing to the heavy losses of Can ada and the home, States in thu

Say. Bud. have you Joined the Legion

For We never can be pure strangers,

For look at the memories We share.

You ought from that button you

There's . fight ahead and you ought

You're . comrade Of mine and love
you, Bud.
Remember the gas alarm
And the o. D. shirt
That was caked with dirt
And served a. q cootie farm.
How we used to think in our careless
way
That taps was a sweet goodnight
Till. with heads bowed down.
We heard taps sound
At the burial after the fight3
Are You putting your shoulders to the
wheel.
And showing with all your might
TO finish the fight you began IN France.
Or have you steered clear Of the
tight!
Have you forgotten Beileau. st. Mihiel
and Argonne
And your buddies you left over
there,
And your crippled chums who are need
ing you now
Come on. be . Legionnaire.
You're comrade Of mine. for haven't
we fought
On Flanders Field Of France
And ducked our head
To the scream Of lead.
Or checked the Germans advance?
We've frightened our belts q notch Of
two
Then over the top we've strode,
With a Yankee grin
On stubborn chin,
Or hiked down shell-torn road.
OF course you belong to the Legion
man.
Your service has won you II.
There's no one can take II away from
you.
But you haven't been working at II.
IT'S duty You owe to the fallen slain
That you cannot shirk or share:
It's to fght the fight as you used te
