 with the Alatna. They will follow the Alatna into the mountains that fringe the north coast o1 Alaska and cross this range into the COlville River basin, about 15O to 200 miles from the Arctic Ocean. They expect to arrive about May 1.
 The party intends to furnish the dogs and themselves with fresh game during the entire trip Knockdown canoes, which can be used in exploration work, next summer, will be dragged by dog team to the Arctic Divide On completion of the work, about October 1 next, the party expects to catch whaling or trading yes Sel or a revenue cutter at Point Barrow, which will carry them to Nome.
 1t is declared that this is the first large party ever to go into the Arctic by the route outlined tho there is a story, not authen. tic, that a man once came out by this route.
 The purpose of the party is to map and obtain as much data as possible of the oil reserve which was recently declared. The men who were in the district last sea son found plenty of seepage, so the land from Icy Cape to the mouth of the Coleville River and south to the Noatak head waters was set aside for the navy.

ANOTHER FINANCE PLAN HAS
BEEN OUTLINED
Good Roads Association Favors
Enactment of Gasolin, Tax in
State

Good Roads Association Favors
Enactment of Gasoline Tax in
State.
Reduction in general property
taxes. taxes on farms and homes,
enactment of gasoline tax and
applications of proceeds from motor
license fees as the states share of
highway improvements, were the
main features of state finance
program outlined by the Wisconsin
Good Roads association in state
ment today by Frank A. Cannon,
secretary.
The association further advocates
that a balanced program of high
way improvement" be carried on
under the finance program, without
severely curtaihng the road work as
advocated by Governor Blaine. The
finance program outlined by Mr.
Cannon follows:
/. Cut general property tax, tax
on farms and homes.
,. Let motor license fees meet all
the states financial requirements for
road improvements.
3. Levy "A 2-cent per gallon tax on
gasoline, the proceeds to be returned
to the local unjtS-towns, villages,
cities and counties-op an equitable
basis to be utilized to finance high
way Improvement 1t is claimed this
would reduce property taxes over
100000.
Thirty five states now have the
gasoline tax and its adoption by all
states seems inevitable" Mr. Can
non said. THE recent Michigan
Republican convention adopted a
gasoline tax resolution. Minnesota
will vote on it next November.
There remains one debatable issue
and that is distribution Of gasoline
tax funds. A 2-eent gasoline tax
this year would yield about $4,000
000 Let this be returned to local
units, towns. villages, counties and
cities. for road Improvement and
they would save that amount of
gen eral property taxes now being
levied State taxes are a minor
factor in the road bill The state
has no authority To determine the
road taxes levied by local units It
can, however, by distributing back
the gasoline TAX, relieve the local
units and the tax bill F."

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By s. W. STRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

What percentage Of a mans in
come should he save?
This is question frequently
asked, and a brief discussion of it
might prove Of interest to many who
have given consideration to the
matter
Sometime ago the United States
Government Savings System issued a
statement that thrifty man should
spend 80 per cent Of his income for
living expenses; 10 per cent for
education; 10 per cent for giving I;
10 per cent for recreation and save
20 per cent. The Treasury Depart
ment has stated that a family Of
three with $4,000 income should
save $500; a family of four with
$4,000 income should save $500; a
family of four with $4,000 income
should save $500; a family of four
with $4,000 income should save
$1,000 and a family Of five with
$4,000 income should save $4,000.
These figures were undoubtedly
arrived at after a close study of the
personal economies of many
families and are meant to cover
average conditions.
While it may be true that the
average man in America should save
20 per cent of his personal income
it does not follow by any means that
man who under certain circum-
stances only saves 10 per cent OF
even per cent Of his income is not
just as thrifty as some other man
who might save 80 per cent of his in
come.
There are rightful duties and
obligations that must be met, and
their fuldillment might preclude the
saving of any considerable sum of
money. On the other hand, a man
might be so situated that even if he
did lay aside 20 per cent Of his in
come he would still be indulging in
wasteful habits,
Thrift is matter Of morals as well
as of money. 1t is self discipline
strength of character; efficiency and
common-sense administration of
ones affairs,
Save Systematically as much as you
can consistent with your cireum-
stances in life. BE economical, but
not misery, Eliminate all possible
waste.
# one endeavor honestly to adhere
to these practices he will be able to
save what is consistent and right and
within the meaning of true thrift.
