PORT ALEXANDER ID BE SET OUT FOREST
 RESERVE, Is STATED

The elimination of Port Alexander at the entrance to Chatham Straits, on lBaranof Island, from the Tongass Nat ional Forest, has been recommended by the Secretary of Agriculture to the Secretary of the Interior, on favorable advice submitted by the office of the IU. s. Forest Service, it was announced in the Empire. There is not the least doubt but that the recommendation will be approved by Secretary of the Interior Work, the Empire reports.
 This action has been taken for the reason that it is believed the Port AL exander settlement has developed to the point where it has become an es- tablished community.
 Port Alexander is one of the largest fishing centers in Southeastern Alas ka According to reports made be- tween 500 and TOO fishing vessels use the Port as a base six months of the year. Inhabitants of the place estim- ate that during a normal fishing year, in excess of 5,OOO,000 pounds of king and cohoe salmon are taken.
 The summer population of Port AL exander Is said to be from 1000 to | 1,20O persons.
 The Standard Oil Co.,, and the Union Oil Co.,, have large stations in the Port and it is understood the General Petroleum Corporation will construct and operate a station next year. Three floating fishing salteries are operated each fishing season. There is a church in the settlement and six general stores, six restaurants, three bakeries, one meat shop, two barber shops, three pool rooms and numerous residences.

He predicts expanding markets for American goods

stitusnts who are vitality interested In the question
Of flood control.
Their situation. II may be diseerned. is somewhat
similar to that OF senators and representatives who
are h~azarding their political fortunes upon the chance
Of forcing through farm relief legislation which does
not meet the approval Of President Coolidge and his
advisers. They, too may discover that the people Of
their states and districts prefer the enactment Of q re-
lief measure which would be certain to stand against
an attack in the courts to one whose constitutional. y
might be questioned.
Precedent fsvors Mr.. Coolidge in his deliberate
and courageous stand in both the instances referred
to-. Since he assumed office he has on several oeca-
sions refused to approve congressional measures which
he opposed. Subsequent developments have verified
the wisdom Of his action. In the matter Of flood con-
troll legislation he seems to have won a conspicuous
victory because Of the realization that he possesses the
courage, even on the eve Of a national election, to stand
for what he deems the right. II would be gratifying
to be able to record the reaching Of a similar COM
promise agreement as to the pending farm bill.
