TIMBER ON ALASKA
 COAST WILL NOT BE
 EXPLOITED, STATED
MILLIONS WILL BE SPENT PULP PAPER INDUSTRY; SECRE-
 TARY AGRICULTURE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3. (P-Un- like any other heavy timbered region in the United States the Alaskan coast will not become the scene of temporary exploitation leading to timber depletion but it can look for ward to the development of perma- nent forest industries in keeping with the capacity of the forest lands to sustain them, the Secretary of Agri- culture declared in his annual report Saturday.
 In his report on the pulp paper in- dustry in Alaska he declared, "the most notable development of the year in the national forest admins tration was the initiation of two pro- jects for utilization of the timber in Alaska which was by far the largess sales of government timber ever made.
 There are two national forests in the Territory, both on the coast, the largest and more southerly is the Tongass; here, the pulp timber areas covered by the present sales are To, cated. Together they embrace more than S,000,0OO cords of pulpwood stumpage. The Tongass has, all told, about 120,0O0,OOO cords of such stumpage and it's estimated growth or continuous yield of pulpwood is at least 100000 cords annually. This will permit the output of all time of not less than 100000 tons of neWsprint a year or one fourth of the present consumption in the United States.
 The sales now under way contem- plate an output within five years of 10000 tons annually. The entrance of the pulp and paper industry into Alaskan regions will be almost of i'm. measurable importance to the Ter IsIf irl 4O1 will be at least $8,OOO,0O0 or $1O,OOO,- 900 in connection with each of the two projects Part of this invest ment twill be for development of water power.
 Power sites, like the timber, is. public property, and in consequence cooperated development of both re- sources in the best interests of the Territory will be possible. The fed eral water power commission and this department are pursuing a joint policy under which pulpwood areas and water power, necessary to make their operation feasible, are blocked up together and made available to the same manufacturer after adyer. tisement in competitive bidding"

 TARY WORK IS GIVEN

In the Saturday edition, November 26, of the Labor" published in Wash ington, D. C., copy of which arrived fn The Gateway office today, the fol- lowing account of the Alaska Rail- road men discharged last August acd theeir reinstatement is given. The ar- ticle follows: The government of the United States, acting thru Hubert Work, Secretary of the Interior, has lein- stated three general chairmen of transportation brotherhoods to their positions on the Alaska Railroad The decision also restores seniority rights and grants pay for all time lost
 The men were discharged last Aug ust by General Manager Noel Smith, without a hearing, for displaying too much union activity"
 The award is an impressive exar- pie of the power and influeGcc Of these great labor organizations and of their devotion to the interests 0f their members.
 The department of the Interior has control of this government railroad in the far North, which functions 365 days of the year, sometimes when the thermometer registers 75 degrees below zero. The line extends from Seward, on Resurrection Bay, to Fair banks in the Interior, distance O. 470 miles.
 The general chairmen involved were J J. c. Moore, Order of Rail way Conductors; Charles Balhiser Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemea and Enginemen, and J. L. Axe, Brot!, erhood of Railroad Trainmen.

 In September a series of conferh- ces were held there with General Man ager Smith, who refused to revoke his order of dismissal, and it became necessary to appeal the case to Sec retary Work.
 Mir. Work readily agreed to give the brotherhoods' representatives hearing, with the stipulation that the general manager be present. Pro- ceedings were thus delayed 10 days awaiting Smiths arrival in Wash ington.

Senator Reed who is widely
discussed as the next Democrat
candidate for president. made
a speech recently and the follow
IN" Ginning from the Roanoke
Times is submitted for your
consideration.
Senator Reed, of Missouri,
who spoke at a dinner held in
connection with the annual mid
winter meeting of the Indiana
Democratic Editorial Associat-
ion, made one plea that is spec
tally applicable to all men
and all parties. when the rag
ged army of Washington stood
triumphant at Yorktown, what
had it won?" asked the speak
er, who proceeded to answer
himself thus: "Only the right
to r""t simple ballot. And ]
say that whoever would corrupt
that blood-drenched right is
traitor to his country. He is an
assassin of human liberty.
That is why | say that corrup-
ton of the ballot is worse than
treason"
From some of the purely par.
tisan remarks of the Senator
there can. and of course, will be
dissent. On the broad question
of honesty in elections there
will be none. Mr.. Reed did not
over-state the Importance of
safeguarding and maintaining
the purity of the ballot. A lack
of zeal in that work is an in
vitation to political corruption
lists to do their worst. Many of |
the evils in government con-
corning which people complain
most frequently can be traced |
directly to public lethargy con-
corning the quality of individ-
uals chosen for election board
duty in different localities. This
passivity makes-it easy for pol
itical bosses e to control the
makeup of the boards for their
own advantage.
The Senator is emphatically
right. Yorktown does stand for
nothing more than the right to
vote free from dictation and to
have that vote counted. When
dishonesty at the polls is toll
Grated there is a surrender of
the privilege won in the Rev.
lolution.
