Silvering Theory Work
 Tricky Aid to Science

TOKYO. Jan. 23.-Police authori- ties in kawaguchi-maehi, in Saitama prefecture, are confronted with the solution of a problem that baffled scientists. About year and half ago, a wellto-do country specialist on metallurgy, Tatsuzo Hatori. living in the suburbs of Kawaguchi-machi near Tokio, claimed to have sue ceeded in converting anything into silver
 Dr Tsun-Marusawa, professor of the Myushn Imperial University, pro. ceeded to kawagGchi-mach to make personal study of thes subject. The result was complete disappoint- ment, according to his latest pub lication.
 The professor said that he dis covered that the apparent success of the claimed theory was entirely due 10 tricks played by an assistant, who would secretly pour special chemical liquids containing silver upon the ma- ,terials taken for experiment. Dr. Marusawa spent eighteen months in his work and has put the matter in the hands of the police.

AUSTRIAN CROWN
 NOW STABILIZED
Will Remain at Present Valua ton for Some Time
 Financiers Claim.

VIENNA, Jan. 23.-That the Aus trian crown will remain indefinitely al about the present exchange value of seventy thousand to the dollar is the opinion of Austrian financiers.
 The League of Nations plan for restoring Austrian finances provides that there be no further increase in culetion, but il makes no provision for reduction. The quantity of paper issued is regarded as absolutely ne- cessary for the normal working of business, since it's purchasing value is something like 14.000 times less than before the war
 Eventually all bills of denomina- tions lower than a hundred will be eliminated. Even a hundred crowri note is of little use; it is scorned even as a tip.
 Austrian business is in such a sensitive condition that any sudden rise in the exchange value of the crown would be a disaster almost equal to a sudden fall. Interior af- fairs, as well as foreign business re. lations, have gradually been ad. jugted to the abnormal relation ot the crown to other money and it i. considered best that it remain un changed for the present
 As there is nothing left in Aus. tria so insignificant as to be reck oned in single crowns. tens O crowns. or hundreds, bills of thos, denominations will gradually disap pear to be replaced by five hundred and thousands.

MINING BUREAU
 ADDS TO FORGE
 AND EQUIPMENT
Gets Coal Testing Laboratory and Analyst, and Tenn
 porary Rescue Car.

Enlargement of the personnel and equipment of the Bureau of Mines to facilitate coal mining operations and put into shape to combat pos sible mining disasters will take place during the present year. according to announcement made today by B. D. Stewart, Alaska Mining Supervisor for the Bureau. Some steps have already been taken 10 this end and others will follow if the plans ap proved by Director H. C. Bain are put into effect.
 Tests of coal for relative heat ing value, etc, will be made in the future by the Bureau of Mines force in the Territory. In the past only the Alaskan Engineering Commis sion has made such tests in it's own laboratory and it's work has been confined largely to commission uses and to coals from the Matanuska field. Much of the commercial test ing has been done at the Bureau of Mines laboratory at Pittsburgh.
 "The Alaskan Engineering Com mission has transferred Analyst Sharpe to the Bureau of Mines and its laboratory equipment at Anchor age has been turned over to the Bureau" said Mir Stewart In the future this service will be open to all private companies as well as to the government, he added.
 A temporary mine rescue service has been provided by the flask Railroad which has turned over a maintenance of way car 10 the Bureau This is fitted up to meet emergency requirements and is kept standing on switch in the Anchor age yards ready for instant use. Ten sets of oxygen breathing apparatus have been requisitioned and will be stored, at least for the present. in the apparatus room of the Gommis- slon's fire department at Anchorage. A crew from that department will be trained in the use and care of the equipment and will be ready for ser vice whenever and where needed at any point on the railroad. l. ia aoped, said MT. Stewart, that the Bureau will be able to provide standard mine rescue car with com Dlete modern equipment sometime during the present year.

PACK PREDICTS
 DEVELOPMENT OF
 ALASKA FORESTS
President of Tree Association
 Gives Prominence to Tongass Forest.

The Alaska National Forests are given considerable prominence and favorable mention in "The School Book of Forestry" published last month by the American Tree Asso- ciation, national forest conserva- tion organization. Development of these forests both for timber and for the manufacture of pulp and paper was pointed out as logical and desirable.
 The book is written by Charles Lathrop Pack, president of the As- sociation. He is author of many other books and articles on forestry and forest conservation and known notionally as a student of forestry.
 MT Pack refers to the Tongass National Forest as the Alaskan forest that will some day be ship ping large amounts of timber to the states. It has over 12,000 miles of shoreline and 90 per cent of the usable timber is within two miles of tidewater. This makes it easy to log the timber and load the lumber u1TBCllg lIOHl lut lOitolo lO lnt steamers. This forest is 1.550 miles closer to mainland than is the other Alaskan National Forest (the Gnu gach.)
 Alaska will probably develop into one of the principal paper sources Of the United States About 6000,O00 tons of pulpwoed annually are required to keep Us supplied with enough paper. The Tongiss National Forest could easily supply one-third of this amount indefinitely
 This forest is also rich in water power It would take more than 250.000 horses to produce as much power as that which the streams and rivers of Southeastern Alaska supply"
 The kind and quantity of timber, average and record stands. growth md other matters are covered by MT. Pack in the chapter on Alaskan forests. The first publication of the book was issued is November and was soon exhausted A second pub ication was issued in December
