GOV. PARKs's RECOMMENDATIONS

Every of the recommendations contained in Gov. Parkss annual report are sound and ought to be acted upon favorably Taken together they constitute program that would be vastly help ful to Alaska and it's development, The recom- mendations printed the frst page of The Empire Wednesday, and while they do not constitute all that would like to in a Washington schedule for Alaska there is not one of them that we would not like to be in the plans for the Territorys immediate future.
 It is reflection the other suggestions to call particular attention to the first two the requests for investigations of the halibut and herring situations The Alaska halibut and her ring fisheries among the two most important branches of greatest industry, and both are causing or less anxiety Gov Parks's re- quest for investigations timely and well presented.
 The herring supply has caused not little discussion because of the fact that it has been dragged into politics demand for the elimination of the of herring for other purposes than food and bait has been voiced by various interests and localities. The Empire has taken the position that if we have a herring supply large as it has been commonly supposed that we have 1t is not being fshed to nearly the danger point. Our herring output is very small compared with that of the North Sea- for instance. and the herring areas are larger. There should be thorough investigation to de- termine whether not the supply is in danger and. if if is, methods of conservation ought to be determined.
 We are not at all in sympathy with the urge for regulations to the use to which her ring might be put unless it shall be shown that all that might be taken with safety would be needed for bait. If to export herring at all let economic laws determine the form and dis position of the exports.

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE THE LUCKY
 ONE

After all, the lucky in politics this year Is President Coolidge who will retire from office next March, in good health at the age of 56 years, with considerable fortune and an as- sured place in history. That he appreciates his position was indicated when he denying rumors that he was to become a college President or would join a large New York law firm with a guaranteed princely income, not long ago said that he intended to go back to Vermont and whittle. He can afford to do that with a fortune that is estimated to be $400, 900, ample to maintain him and his family with their simple tastes and penchant for economy. It is difficult to imagine a more delightful way to spend time for one that has been busy and hard working as President Coolidge from early manhood than reading good books and whittling and there is probably no more agreeable place to read and whitte away time than in the Green Mountains in the summer time.
 So many writers of distinction have purchased Green Mountain farms for summer homes that 1t IS likely that the President would begin after a while to sandwich in some writing between his whittlings. If he should do so, the country would be richer on account of it. Mr Coolidge has lived an interesting life midst interesting events, and he is master of English that is easy to read. We would like to read a book that he would write It would be interesting and worth while.
