SEATTLE, Aug. Il. (P)-An elabo- rate program of colonization in Alas ka means the development of the region and increasing revenues for the Government Railway, is in mind by Colonel Otto F. Ohlson, new Gen. eral Manager, who sailed for Alaska today.
 Colonization, just as the trans continental railways colonized the western country, is the next step in Alaska's development. Alaska has much to offer to the permanent set tier and the railway goes thru the heart of some of the best country.
 T feel satlement and antensive development of A1aska's resources constitute a desirable step in making the Alaska Railway self sustaining and the upbuilding of the Northern Territory on a permanent and sub- stantial basis.
 T am beginning a survey which will be the base of recommendations which will be necessary. Special appropriations will be made in case the program evolved is irldonsed by the Department of the Interior"

UNION PACIFIC TO HELP BOOST IDEA
 OF ALASKA TRAVEL
VICE PRESIDENT, TRAFFIC MAN AGER GREAT RAILROAD sYs-
 ITEM IMPRESSED ALASKA

The cumulative effect of the ad- vertising that has been done to ln- sduoa people to travel to Alaska is now bearing such fruit that greater efforts are to be made, because the ends justify the means, according to Frank W. Robinson who bears the impressive title of vice president and traffic manager of the Union Pacific system, including the Union Pacific Railroad Co.,, the Oregon Short Line, the Oregon, Washington Railroad & Navigation Col, the Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad and the St. Joseph & Grand Island Railway O. MT. Robinson is a passenger on the 5. S. Alaska which arrived in port this morning. He regrets that his itiner- ary compels his rlturn down the coast and back to his headquarters at Omaha. He declares that he has seen just enough of Alaska to make him desirous of seeing much more. At a near time in the future he hopes to get over all the Territory.
 ''The printing of folders and book lets has been d very good means of starting travel to Alaska said MT. Robinson, "but we are now finding that the word of mouth advertising now spreading all over the United States and Europe ifs getting better results. Tn other words the first travellers have been so favorably impressed that they are telling their friends to come up and see this won derful country.
 "As you may know" the Union  Pacific has been one of the prime move in the effort to get people out to see their country and enjoy them selves. We have spent nearly $3CO0, 900 in opening up the scenic wonders of Southern Utah. In this brief sur vey I am already convinced that the Union Pacific must get more active ly behind the movement to stimulate travel to Alaska
 Efforts were being made today by local steamship officials to, arrange fishing party in Resurrection Bay for MT. Robinson and his friends on the Alaska before she departs on her return journey.

 For Alaska Coal

These are the heartening words of EVans Jones, who started the Evans Jones Coal Co.,, up Matanuska way and who with his family is now in Seward on the way to the Interior After fou months soiourn at .Iunea,, at the request of the Admiralty Is land Goal Co.,, he is going back Inside to assist in the development of the coal fields that were the original in spration of the Alaska Railroad "As look at it now see no particular reason why the Alaska Railroad should not be soon carrying the, coal tonnage that was hoped for in tha he ginning.
 LOCAL MARKET GROWING
 We must be prepared to give the people what they are asking for > continued MT. Jones, at the Van Gid CT today, "and we are in shape to do it. There is a growing market from Fairbanks to Ketchikan for the diff ferent grades of coal which our mines can produce The situation lacks combined effort among the pro ducers. It ought to be in the cards that one producer will call upon an other if he hasn't the particular kind of coal on hand. The merits of Alas ka coal have already been amply demonstrated: their steaming heating qualities are now appreciated and we can nov in and will move in on com petition from any source.

Dave Hamilton Says
NOnpartisan League
Paper Insulted Him

Contending that the North Dako-
ia Nonpartisan, official organ Of
the Nonpartisan League, had in
suited him by insinuating that he
was controlled by the Minneapolis
Chamber Of Commerce, Senator D..
II. Hamilton, McHenry county, yes
terday told stockholders Of the
newspaper that it needed better edi-
torial direction.
Hamilton was q member Of the
mill fact-finding committee whose
report on the statc-owned institu-
ton was given by Governor Sorlie as
his reason for calling q special ses-
sion Of the legislature last month.
In referring to the committee,
Hamilton charged, the Nonpartisan
intimated that the committee was
influenced by the Minneapolis
Chamber Of Commerce. A similar
charge was made by Governor A. G..
Sorlie in his message to the special
session. Hamilton and L. o. Fred.
rickson, Nelson county, . majority
Of the committee. were Nonparti-
sans and the McHenry county man
charged that his own newspaper had
held him up to scorn and ridicule.
Ben Larkin, managing director Of
the newspaper and former speaker
Of the house Of representatives, tx-
planned that either Hamilton rad
misinterpreted an article in the
Nonpartisan, that it was q reprint
from another newspaper, or that it
was all q mistake. He denied that
there was any intention by the ed
itor to take a slap" at Hamilton
and the matter was settled AMIGA
bly,.
The meeting was called to con-
slider the financial condition and
future Of the newspaper. A report
showed It to be only $l25 in debt.
