WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON - Dr. Hubert Work. Secretary of Interior, in his annual report gives considerable at tention to Alaska. He discusses the alternatives that have been sug- gested such as abandoing in part the Alaska Railroad, such as the Seward Anchorage Division for summer tourist travel only. and the construction of an automobile high way to replace the greater part of the railroad. He points out the large additional costs for building a highway and the troubles from freezing and having which may be expected to yelop. In discussing the rairoal fu. Ter, he says
 We have it, and to abandon it despite loss in main tenance would amount to a repression of the Amer ica. policy Of progress. The rail road was completed only in June 1923; its construction was hurried and some of it's structures are flim- sy and temporary in character and menaced by glacial rivers. and it's tracks are underlayed by ice at some depths all the year round which makes upkeep expensive an6 out of proportion with present earnings"
 Alaska is fast becoming a lost province the Secretary observes, "receding in population and ham pered by restrictions and divided control Without the inspiration of self government or the freedom Of initiative, the opportunity for ex- pansion has been curtailed by Bu- reau officials and made hesitating by limited authority.
 "Alaskans have not been encour- aged to develop pride in territorial growth or indepedencee of admin istration. Alaskas administration continues divided among nine Fed eral departments and that is of greatest menace to development Of Alaska's responsibility for the in timate obligations of her people tc the territory.

All persons owning gas boats and others should remember that the War Department has jurisdiction over the local harbor and that it is necessary to obtain a permit for any kind of water front improvement, or to drive a dolphin or piles. It is necessary to make formal applica- tion in order to comply with the law. And, besides, this little for mality may be well , worth the trouble of making out an applica- tion. For instance, if gas boat should be wrecked by running into dolphin that had been driven without permission the injured par ty would have better grounds for claiming damages than if the dol phin had been driven with the per mission of the War Department During the past few years there have been many applications sent from Wrangell to the War Depart ment for water front improvements, etc., and the Sentinel does not know of any cases whore the applications havs. hssna rstuDo1
