WANT LEGISLATURE
 TO MEET EARLIER

Believing taai convening Of the Territorial Legislature in March works a hardship on representa- tives from the Fourth and Second Divisions, the Executive Commit tee of the Fairbanks Commercial Club has adopted a resolution urging that the Legislature meet on the first Monday in February instead of the first Monday in March, as is done at present.
 Advancing the date a month would, the Commercial Cub be- lieves, give representatives from Divisions farthest away from Juneau time to return to their homes for spring business. It is pointed out that under present conditions lawmakers often times suffer considerable financial loss by not being able to attend to business in the best season of the year.
 Another change desired by the Commercial Club is in the cleo tion date. The change desired is from the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November to the first Tuesday after the first Mon day, in September. To bring this about Section 5 of the Organic Act would have to be amended.

earth movements that produced a 47-foot local uplift.
 Residents of Skagway. at the head of Lynn Canal. 160 miles east of Yal1utat reported six or seven shocks, the vibrations in creasing until everyone felt the motion distinctly There were literal earth waves, both motion and feeling being exactly as if on board a vessel. Many cracked chimneys and gaping walls re- suited from these tremors.
 Juneau reported three hard shocks, one very severe. Taku Inlet, Stephens Passage and Gas tineau Channel were filled with icebergs from Taku Glacier for some time after the shocks.
 These observations of per sons experiencing the Yakutat quake at distant stations are further evidence of the far-reach- ing effects and likelihood of earth
 
 movement along Lynn Canal"
 Other Changes Noted The bureau checked other sta tions up on it's theory. "To as sign the earthquake of 1899 as the m m d a { e factor which brought about the changes in the level noted" it said, ''it would have been necessary to have had tidal observations and level made just previously to, and immed- lately following the disturbance. in an effort to ascertain if any subsequent changes in elevation might have occurred, the eleva- ltion of reliable bench marks es- tablished at Hoonah and Mud Bay in 1901 and 1920 were re- checked in 1923. Here, too, were found increases in elevation, amounting to 0.96 and 1.39 feet. One might assume that these figures came within the allowable limit of sea-level variation, and therefore that factor could be as- signed as the sole cause of the .differeing elevations. This may be the case, though the tidal ele- vations at Hoonah were of four months duration in 1901 and six months in 1923. both sufficiently long series to obviate most of the error in planes of mean tide level derived from series of tidal ob- servations less than a year in length. Therefore. we must grant the possibility of earth move ments subsequently, to those of 1899, which may or may not have been due indirectly to the disturbance of that year. Such an assumption is strengthened by the knowledge of the vast changes which took place in Muir Glacier between 1899 and 1907, and the occurrence of severe earthquake in 1907, which was reported chiefly from the Lynn Canal region, notably at Skag- way"

YAKUTAT BAY QUAKE CAUSES
 EARTH UPLIFT
Change in Mean Tide Level Indicates Uplift as far
 as Lynn Canal

That the great Yakutat earth quake of 1899 caused vertical lift in the land mass as fsr east as the west shore of Lynn Canal is indicated as a strong proba- bility by study of mean tide levels made by the U. s. Coast and Geodetic Survey. Bench marks established on that shore by the bureau in 1890 showed an average, increase Of 2.4 feet in elevation in 1922.
 This fact is noted in a recent bureau publication, "Tides and Currents in Southeast Alaska, ]" which points ou the value of a plane of mean tide level, or of mean sea level, as a means of determining disturbances of the earth.
 Haines showed an increase of 2.53 feet in elevation, William Henry Bay, 2.37, and Pyramid Harbor 237 feet. Funter Bay showed 1.S7, Hoonah Bay 139, land Mud Bay .96 feet, and Sitka and Taku Harbor lesser increases. Metlakatla was virtually un- changed.
 If we assume that the bench marks remained constant, it would have been impossible that the plane of mean tide level would be altered by these amounts" declared the bulletin. adding: ITO bring about such great lowering of the plane of mean tide level enormous physical changes would have had to take place in the cross sections of the waterways leading up to these tidal stations. No changes of note have occurred.
 Vertical Displacement
 "A study of the establishment of the three bench marks (Haines, William Henry Bay and Pyramid Harbor) shows they were we'll enough located so that it was utterly impossible for them to have been raised over two feet excepting by a vertical displace- ment Of all the surrounding land mass"
 This conclusion led to a study of earthquakes in the region. Only one of sufficient magnitude was revealed, that centering around Yakutat Bay in 1899. An investigation. reported by Tarr and Martin, showed maximum uplift amounting to AZ feet in places in the immediate region, and rapid changes in the glaciers in the district as far south and east as Taku Gacier, the most notable change being at Muir Glacier.
 Evidence Is Strong
 That it was not only possible but very probable that the land lying easterly to Lynn Canal was all uplifted by the tremblor is indicated by the facts assembled by the bureau which pointed out the proximity of Lynn Canal to Muir Glacier and said:
 "Inasmuch as this glacier was materially disturbed by the earth quake of 1899, it is reasonable to assume that the west shore of Lynn Canal, only 30 miles dis tant from Muir Glacier. might have been affected by the same

to relieve the "peak-foad" labor
problem, and eventually to displace

All these developments are In the
direction of more cotton per man

cheaper manufactured cotton.
Cheaper manufactured cotton means
an enlarged spirit of purchasing OH

Raise more cotton; that, say
many, is the first lesson, because
cotton Is wealth-it is commercially

and to this end, insist some of the
far-sighted leaders, raise cheaper
cotton, and learn how to do so at
an even larger profit; that they
aver, is the second lesson.
Cotton growing already shows a
wide range in efficiency. Some
farmers through intensive efforts,
have found it possible greatly to
increase the yield per acre and per
man employed. Others, operating on
larger acreages, have been able,
through improved methods, me-
chanical aids and reduction of over
head to lower production costs to
