SAN FRANCISCO, March 2 tP--
Senator Reed, of Missouri, carried

WASHINGTON.-It may be true, as
Secretary of Labor Davis believes,
that current estimates of unemploy-
ment are exaggerated. But his COM
ment on estimates that 100000 per-
sons are out of work has emphasized
the absence at any agency which
kept accurate track of the facts. Such
facts and figures as are available
furnish little nourishment for those
who agree with President Coolidge's
assertion in his message to congress
last December that employment is
plentiful"
In round numbers, the 1920 census
showed 100000 American engaged
in gainful occupations. There were
100000 employers and self-em-
ployed, including 100000 farmers;
26,000,000 wage earners and 100000
salaried workers.
The employe class included 2,70Q,000
farm workers, 100000 miners, 12,000,-
900 manufacturing workers, 2,500,000
building trades workers, 100000 cler-
ical workers and 100000 transporta-
ton workers.
Now to take up the available facts
for these various classes. The bureau
of labor statistics, part of the depart
ment of labor, has compiled since
1923 monthly index showing the
percentage of employment which uses
the average employment for 1928 as
100 per cent. 1t is based on payroll
reports from 1000 industrial estab-
lishments employing som 100000
workers.
1t has been said that this omits
many smaller factories which, have
been hardest hit, but let that pass
and assume that the average for these
holds good everywhere and-for want
of actual figures-that there were still
12,000,000 manufacturing employees in
1923.

The percentage of manufacturing
employment in the last month of
1927, as compared with the 1923 aver
age, was 85.1. This would mean, dis
counting the 192O-23 drop in employ
ment. that some 100000 jobs occu-
pied by manufacturing workers in 1923
were not occupied the first of this
year.
Assuming that there were only TO-
100000 such workers in 1923, some
$4,000 factory workers had lost or
left their jobs since December, 1926,
when the percentage was 900. Eleven
of IL groups surveyed showed de-
creases for 1927.
Farmers and farm laborers who left
the farms in 1927 and years just be-
fore can't be accurately estimated, but
Secretary of Agriculture Jardine eSti-
mates that more than 100000 per-
sons have left the farms since 1920,
many to be- thrown on the labor mar
ket. A total of 1,749,439 persons
earning livings on farms left the
farms between 1910 and 1920 and ii
the same ratio continued some 1,225,-
900 have departed in the last seven
years.
AS for mining, surplus of metal
mining workers was general in the
west as late as January About
100000 bituminous coal miners are on
strike and $4,000 anthracite miners
are said to be idle. A surplus Of
miners has existed for years.
One of the most important things
to remember about unemployment,
however, is that an accurate estimate
of it is impossible. Even in most
prosperous times, labor department
officials say about 100000 are job
less.

AGAINST PATERNALISM

"Not one step forward has been made in this direction since We were granted Territorial Legislature with very limited powers in 1912. In fact we have gone backward. For the |past eight years the policy of the |Gowarnment has inclined more and more toward bureaucratic control and paternalism, with no apparent effort made by anybody to combat it. We are getting into a bureaucratic rut and will stay there for the next 50 years unless a determined effort is made by the Alaskans themselves and tbeir representative and friends in Congress to get out of it..

BUREAU RIDDEN

What I have said about future possibilities in Alaska, depends a lot on the attitude of he Government toward Alaka. We have inexhausti- ble natural resources, yet our popula- tion for the last 25 years has been stationary; in fact sometimes dwind- ling. Why is this? The answer is that while we have the natural re-
 sources they have been withheld from us by mistaken Governmental
 policies, while on the other hand we have the greatest natural obsta- cles that ever confronted the pioneers of any Territory. If there was ever a land where the settler should be
 given the benefit of every natural re- source and told to help himself, it is Alaska But on the contrary, there never was a Territory where he has been so hampered by Federal re- strictions, in the way of reservations, bureaucratic control, conservation |fads and experiments. The drift to-
 ward bureaucratic Government in the past decade has been denounced by leading men of both parties as a
 menace, even in the States, as bane-
 full in it's effects, paralyzing to de-
 velopment and leading to favoriaism,
 graft and corruption. The most
 bureauridden, official infested, red
 States, is Alaska
Seward daily gateway., 1928-09-08
NO CONSERVATIONIST

About the time the cream of our gold placers were skinned, a fever |of conservation swept the country. Pinchotism became rampant and AL aska was the victim. Our coal and oil lands were withdrawn from entry for a long period of years, and now |ara struggling for development under ia Federal leasing system, which never has been a success anywhere.
 "The leading industry of Alaska, just now, is the fisheries; from it we get mosf of our Territorial revenue; must Of our towns and most of oLf people derive their support directly or indirectly from this industry. Yet we have absolutely no voice in is 'a43lation or control, by the Depot ment of Commerce, thru the Bureau of Fisheries. One man in Alaska, the representative of the Department Of Commerce, has the power to stop all fishing sLmmarily. He can ruin whole community by his mere die tum"

WOULD CONTROL FISHERIES

"The Alaska Democratic platform is opposed to this policy. It declares for home rule, for full Territorial Government, including control of fisheries and game. That is the is sue in this campaign in Alaska. We believe that we should be allowed to control our own resources; that we should be permitted to make our own mistakes and suffer from and profit by them We believe our industries, including the fisheries, should be regulated by general law, made by our Territorial Legislature, as oppos- ed to Federal Bureaucratic control.

SAYS DEPARTMENT
Buys More Fence, Distributes
PlOws for More Efficient
Attack on Snow Drifts.

More snow fence and quicker ac-
tion by snow plows next winter are
two things that are expected to bring
the Minnesota highway department
closer to the ideal of keeping the
trunk highways open all the time.
During the past winter the state
roads were kept practically 100 per
cent open except after the heavy snow
storms in December and April.
In both months all records for
snow fall were broken in many Sec
tions of the state. In spite of this a
majority of the roads were opened
within forty-eight hours, but on
some routes it took much longer.
The April storm blocked many roads
due to the fact that snow fences had
to be taken down before spring work
starts in the fields. The department
was further handicapped by the soft
condition of the roads which made
it difficult for plows to move.
A half million feet of snow fence
will be purchased this year, for de-
livery next fall. Bids will be opened
May 1. The policy of buying snow
fence in the spring has enabled the
to get fence at much
