BUNNELL GOING
 TO WASHINGTON
Seeks to Get More Federal Money Grants for AL
 aska A. & M. College

pr. Charles E. Bunnell, President of the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines, was a Ju- neau visitor this morning while the steamer Alameda was in port. He is enroute to Washington to ap- pear before Congress in connection with the proposal to extend to Alaska's College the provisions of the Capper- -Ketchum Act.
 This law, enacted several years ago by Congress, extends to land colleges in the States, Federal financial aid for carrying on cer- tain lines of educational work. It is estimated that Alaska will re- ceive annually $20000 should the Act be extended to the Territory
 Dr. Bunnell was asked to come to Washington by Representative Vestal of Indiana who visited the Fairbanks institution several years ago and has taken an active inter est in it since that time. He ex- poets to be in Washington between 30 days and six weeks.

Henry O'Malley, Czar of Alaska said in sub stance, in discussing the failure at Karluk: "The failure of reds in the Karluk River was not unforeseen. It was predicted in 1926 by Dr. Charles H. Gilbert and Dr. Willis H. Rich in an Of tlcial report covering the red salmon run to the Karuk River.
 'The question of whether an overcroWded spawning area would be disastrous to succeeding cycle runs of salmon was discussed at some length: In 1924 there tremendous runs of both humpies and reds to the Karluk. Many of the fish did not even reach the spawning beds The lake and river were polluted with both fish and spawn. The 1926 of pinks the next in cycle order was failure. Observing these conditions DTS. Gilbert and Rich after setting up these facts said-H similar fate befell the 1924 redsahnon eggs we shall have an extremely limited lingering run in 1926 and failure of the run in 1929
 The current season has bourne out the pre- diction of these specialists. The red run was failure, but the run of pinks has been fair''
 The Prediction of the Specialists
 While the overstocking of the river was goine on, the "Speca]ists' did nothing The time to act was then The fish that caused the overstockinr were wasted for they should have been canned Besides, these same fish polluted the river After the damage was done the "spcoia!ists" predicted that there would be a failure in 1928 and 1ooo Henry OMacv feels "vindicatcd" in the GuJnu- ment of their predictions
 The same thing happened in Southeastern Alaska in 1927-the year O'Malley abolished the second fishing season. Our streams were over

The r19dame of the house responded to his knock wlereupon he pull cd 3 notebook from his pocket and said: "vou are Mrs. So-and~5o It is reported that you are sell ing illicit liquor.

GENEVA, April 5.-Disarmament, the
most delicate of all the world problems,
because it concerns national defense,
again will be confronted by the League
of Nations
On April Is the so-called "prepara-
tory disarmament commission" will sit
at Geneva and make another supreme
effort to agree on thorny questions to
a degree which will justify the convoca-
ton of an international conference for
the limitation and reduction of arma-
mentS.
Statesmen Are Worried.
Incidentally, it should be remarked
that statesmen are beginning to show
worry over the unrestricted and free
use of the word disarmament" Every
body knows that disarmament, in the
real sense of the word, is impossible at
present, and almost everybody also will
admit that even an appreciate reduc-
ton of ornaments on land and sea is
impossible.
What practical international poll
ticians really hope for is a limitation
of ornaments. BY that is meant that
nations will agree to halt the increasing
Of their existing ornaments.

it an illusion difficult OF realization
The delegates from Moscow promptly
came back with a plan Of gradual dis

with the same facility. The commits
sion will study that scheme and decide

Hugh Gibson. the American Ambassa-
dor to Belgium, will, as III the past, be
the chief American delegate. Lord

Great Britain, although there has been
no official announcement.
The capable son of Aimaro Sato, for

Bernstorff, who of late has specialized
in questions of armament reduction,
will represent Germany. and all these

ties and more personal service. Each

the additional cost. Prof. II. g. M.
Case and M. L. Mosher OF the Uni
versity of Illinois College Of Agricui-
ture were selected to direct the work
At the end of the first three years
1t was found that 35 of the 200 farms
earned $4,000 more per year per farm
than did another group of IS. although
there was practically no difference In

BLOOMINGTON, Ill, April 5.-To
analyze the personal efficiency of its
members the -Four County, Farm
Bureau Farm Management project in
Stituted by farmers of Mclean, Taze-
well, Woodford and Livingston Conn-
ties fiye years ago, has been reorganized
for three-year term.
Its purpose is to show its members
wherein they are losing or making
money by comparing their work with
that of their neighbors, and by the
same comparison to indicate wherein a
change of methods or crops win In
crease farm profits.
The project Is an outgrowth of
Illinois widely adopted practice of
farm accountancy wherein individual
records are analysed each year and
compared to averages for the most
profitable and least profitable groups
of farms.

it has been impossible to show ample
room for improvement by referring to

AS result, members Of the -four

ficiency at a tremendous rate, fields
are being enlarged, rotations changed,
soils improved and live stock plans re-
vamped.. Mosher finds 1t far more con-
vincing for a farmer to compare his
results with those of other farmers than

an agreement for reduction Of arma-

an agreement for reduction Of arma-
ments.
AS the hour for the session OF the
preparatory disarmament commission
approaches there are echoes of hopes
and fears from almost all powerful
nations.
Great Britain and France are said
to be dreaming of an early convoca-
ton of special naval conference which
would achieve what the three-power
naval conference at Geneva failed to
achieve.
From Japan come indications that
the government, pinched financially,
would welcome treaty providing for
further naval reductions.
Germany Demands Reduction.
From Germany. which claims she is
totally disarmed, come demands for
those reductions of ornaments which
the covenant of the League of Nations
regards as imperative to the conSolida-
ton of world peace.
But experts at Geneva remark that
simultaneously with this and other pres
sure for leSsening of armament bur-
denS, great nations are proceeding stead
lily with their program of naval re-
placement-the United States voting to
build is cruisers of 10000 tons and
both Great Britain and France voting
to lay down the keels of new warships.
Germany believes that unless the big
naval powers reach an accord, general
disarmament may suffer a serious blow
from which it would not recover easily.
Subcommittee to Be Asked.
Count Won Bernstorff, former Ger
man Ambassador to Washington. is ex-
pected to introduce a resolution in
April for the appointment of sub
committee to tackle the special prob
lem of naval limitation.
With the naval problem a harassing
specter, interest centerS also on how
the preparatory disarmament commits
sion will deal with the project of Soviet
Russia for partial disarmament.

ever has placed az the top in all d.

says, has proven to be so efficient that
