 Wards of the Nation
 Indians and Eskimos, commonly called natives, who comprise almost one-half of the population, do not share in these Territorial benefac- tions and educational advantages.
 Occupying the status of wards of the nation, the Government, through it's Bureau of Education, conducts native schools and maintains hos pitals, and otherwise generously, if not always efficiently or adequately, provides for them. As these wards are scattered over wide domain the difficulties attending their care are manifold, and the aid given them fs'l9 far short of the Territorial care extended to the whites, whose needs are under more direct super vision.
 Tribal customs are largely of the past and native life has undergone a transformation from savagery and heathenism to civilization and Chris tianity. Notable progress has been made in Southeastern Alaska. Rake, Bayview and Hydaburg are model Indian villages. They have local government, with a mayor and coun- cil, and compare most favorably with communities of like size in the States. At Bayview the natives own and operate the cannery and sawmi|l and otherwise exhibit marked enter prise and ambition Electric light ing plants have been installed in these villages and other modern con- veniences provided. Motion picture theaters are maintained and phono- graph and radio apparatus are in use. Each of these villages, as well as Angoon and Yakutat, has Brotherhood Hall, built by the na- tives, which constitutes a community center where entertainments and athletic contests are held. Rake, on lonely Kupreanof Island, with only four white inhabitants-a storekeep- CT, two Government school teachers and a nurse-is an especially clean, attractive and well-ordered com munity.
 The more progressive of the na- tive element, as typified in the vil- lages named, believe that direct con- tact and competition With the whites would further promote the welfare of the race and, therefore, favor the opening of the island reservations to white residents and settlement. A visit by the Governor to these com munities during the Summer was heartening. Certainly native life as there exemplified is full of promise.
 1lliterate Voters
 A reverse side of the picture, however, is constantly in evidence. Indians living in less favored locali- ties are still a primitive people, many of them densely ignorant, un- able to read or write and eking out a miserable, decadent existence. The "cOmmunitv house." sO-called where

 Territorial Paternahsm
 Alaska emulates and practices Uncle Sam's spirit of paternalism in zealously guarding the welfare of it's people. The helping hand is extend ed in many directions. Probably no State of the Union is quite so gen. erous or vigilant in looking after it's white population. In theory, the Government takes care of the other half-the Indians and Eskimos.
 Almshouses are unknown and pov- erty is seldom in evidence Adequate provision is made for the re- lief of Restitution and the care of dependent children, and worn out or afflicted prospectors find haven in the Pioneers Home at Sitka Hardships encountered in the wilds are rarely accompanied by hunger, as game and fish abound and a bene- ficient nature supplies bodily wants Shelter cabins are maintained on the trails and funds are always available to organize searching par ties for the rescue of lost persons.
 An old age pension system supple ments these helpful Territorial agencies and further insure the com fort of those in need. Originally monthly allowance limited to $12.5O was provided for impoverished men over 65 years who had lived in the Territory for fifteen continuous years and maximum allowance of $25.OO of flied, but these amounts were subse- quently increased to $25.OO and $45.OO respectively and today 183- 16l men and 22 women-are carried on the Territorial pension roll, draw ing various sums according to their need. A substantial addition to the annual appropriation of $3O,OOO is now required to meet steadily grow ing appeals for aid. The average number of inmates of the Pioneers Home is 82, all men, making a total of 265, who receive Territorial boun- ty. Alaska in pioneer days was es- sentially mans country, which ex- plains the small number of women pensioners.
 Charities and Education
 Approximately $25O,OOO is expend- ed biennially toward charitable ends Considering the Territory's scant population, 3O,OOO whites, and it's necessarily limited revenues, these liberal public benefactions are ren- dered possible only by the simplicity and utmost economy of administra- tion. Every dollar appropriated for relief goes to the beneficiaries with out administrative cost. Whether such liberal system of paternalism could be maintained with a growth of population is problematical.
 The Territory is equally generous in meeting educational needs. Its public school system, although yet in the formative stages, is maintain

Biggest Achievement for Bene- fit of Territory in Year Was Inauguration of Regulations for Control of Fishing

the outstanding achievement of the year affecting and of enduring bene- fit to Alaska was the enactment of legislation by Congress to protect and conserve the fisheries. Strict regulations now control and will continue to control this colossal in dustry, and, vitally concerned in it's perpetuity, the Territory is support ing the policy of conservation inaug urated and cooperating in the en- forcement of the laws and regula- tions.
 While not appreciably gaining in population, the Territory, better known and understood as an invit- ing, habitable land, is steadily pro- gressing and developing, and faith in it's future is strong. Camps that sprang into being over night in stampede days have dwindled or passed, but in their stead have come thriving villages and towns which have acquired permanency and are destined to be cities of the future. Industry is expanding and on a more stable basis. Capital again has it's eye on the Northland. Enterprises of magnitude, halted by the abnormal war period, are over coming obstacles and approaching realization, and certainly the decade to come will show substantiol growth and prosperity.
 A Homogeneous Country
 Improved transportation facilities are making homogeneous country of Alaska. Widely removed sections have been brought into touch and relationship by the operation of the government railroad and the build- ing of roads and trails. Divergent interests of yesterday are merged into the common cause of general up- building of today. Distinctive iron tier aspects are disappearing year by year. A journey that once con- sumed a fortnight or month by dog team is now made quickly by train or truck, and an airplane mail ser vice from Fairbanks to Iditarod has furnished added proof of moderniza- tion. Automobiles have come into use throughout the Territory The Richardson Highway-still called trail-is fairly alive with motor touring parties during the short Summer season. Juneau, with thir- ty-odd miles of road has nearly 300 licensed automobiles and all the coast towns maintain a taxi service. But roads and roads and still more roads and trails are still essential to the opening of the great domain, Countless acres in the interior and vast stretches on the islands have never been traversed or prospected.
 Further impetus was given to mining during the year, especially in the Fairbanks district, on the Seward Peninsula, and on the islands of Southeastern Alaska.
