Prices in the stock market
have declined rather substantial
" during January. From the
high points reached IN the first
week Of the year, railway shares
on the New York Exchange
have fallen an average OF three
points, and tndustrials eight points.
Ny guess is that this down
ward movement Is not over, by
any means.
It costs half as much again
to live In the United States now
al It did before the war. Mean.
while, however, average wages
have advanced 100 per cent,
so that people. az q whole. are
distinctly better Off than they
were then.
After suffering from unduly low
prices after the postwar boom
collapsed, our agricultural popu-
lation at last are on q relatively
favorable price level: that tg To-
say, agricultural prices have adj
vanced quite al much as prices
for manufactured products. And

In my Judgment, that rents will

The general price level il

last january, but II lower than II

in different classes Of connmodi.

PRICE COMPARISONS
Mod GneaeWOFIK

Forecasts Of 1928 agricultural
prices can be nothing better than
mere guesswork. From present
indications. one ID inclined to look
for firmness rather than weak
ness. for a moderate advance
rather than any drastic decline.
The nations industrial prcduc.
tive facilities being in excess Of
requirements, the chances are
that the price level for finished
goods win not rise but may con-
tinue to sag, especially In view Of
the very keen efforts persistently
exercised to bring about ecOno-
mics in distribution win be ct.
fected this year. for this prob.
lem is receiving more attention
than ever before.
Another factor calculated to
keep our industrial prices from
soaring is the rehabilitation which
has been making marked mead
way in foreign countries eager TO
build up foreign markets in com
petition with us.
All in all. the year il unlikely
= to bring any drastic change In
the cost Of living or in wages, but
such changes as occur in prices
probably viii favor the consumer.

SEWARD AVIATION
 FIELD NEEDS ARE
 EXPLAINED, MERRILL
ALASKA IS DESTINED TO BECOME NTHE HUNTING PARADISE OF
 THE WORLD

1 Alaska is on the eve of wonderful aviation features" Gus Gelles, a mem Der of the Anchorage Air Transport, secretary-treasurer of the Alaska Gla- cier Tours, and unidentified with many ,other Alaskan business, remarkel dur 1 ing his interesting talk at the Cham 1 Der of Commerce meeting yesterday.
 Tn the very near future there will be organized in the Territory large airplane organization comprising of Eastern people. They may absorb us; anything might happen, but in this respect I am not speaking officially for our entire organization"
 MT. Gelles stated Seward was an ex- ceptionally fine base for plane oper- ations and then related facts and stat istics to bear his statement out. He then launched forth in describing the progress being made by the tours company of which he has been one of the prime movers since it was or ganized.
 "As an officer of the Tours Associa- ton I wish to point out this is now just as much a Seward organization as it is an Anchorage one," MT. Gelles opened up with. First, I wish to sub- init an application, for the Alaska Glacier Tours Association, for mem bership to the Seward Chamber of Commerce. It is safe to say that this year our payroll, between Seward and Anchorage for guides, cooks, packers, and others, will amount from 5000 to s3o,OOO."
 Our booking at this time exceeds the total booking for the entire season of last year At least 10000 pieces of literature have been mailed to almost all points in the world and responses have been received already from far off countries such as England. The sportsmen of the world have their eyes on Alaska
 "Our main competition is in Canada and British Columbia where it is So much cheaper to conduct big game hunt but where, also, the game fails by far to compare with trophies to be secured in Alaska. The cost of hunts in. Canada and British Columbia, in some instances, is almost half of the cost of a hunt in Alaska.
 1" am particularly glad to announce that our company will show a profit this year the first we will have shown since we organized
 From the scores of letters and tes- timonials received we have been con- vinced that no where in the world is found such high class guides, cooks and packers, and others who are en- gagged in this business, than is found in Alaska. With the scenery and game of Alaska there is no reason why, within the very near future, Alaska should not become the hunting par adise of Inc world y

MIR. WHITE PLAYS FAIR


William Allen White, investigating the record Gov
ernor Alfred E. Smith made a member Of the New
York Assembly score of years ago, expunges
from his compilation of criticisms all reference any
votes against bills which purported to be measures
for the suppression of gambling and prostitution.
The Kansas editor comedies that opposition bills
of this character might be inspired by unquestionaby
good and high minded motives. He conceive of
situations in which legislator, moved by desire to
protect vice or gambling might vote against socaled
reform because he frankly and perhaps
recty believed them unconstitutional unenforceable,
or likely to encourage police blackmail.
So Mr.. White good sportsman and fair fighter that
he is, withdraws all criticism Of Governor Smiths As
semby record that has to do with his attitude toward
bills dealing with either gambling or prostitution.
But Mr. White sticks to his guns in the matter Of the
saloon He reerates his charge that Governor Smith
while in the Assembly, did vote consistently for egs-
lation that favored by the saloons. and against
measures that were opposed by the saloons.
We do not think that Governor Smith, also good
sportsman and fair fighter, will dispute seriously
the factual basis Of Mr.. Whites revised criticism AS
Tammany man, working his way gradually but stead
lily forward to emnence in the Tammany organization,
his politically logical course naturally to vote
with Tammany all questions involving Tammany's
interests. And when, pray Tammany. in the days
Of the saloons existence not vitality interested in the
furtherance Of the New York saloons welfare and
prosperity?
