SPEEDY AND GOOD

Unless one has seen the progress which has been made by Con- tractor Wood and his road build ing crew, it would be impossible, almost, to impress how speedily work on the radio road is going forward and the length already completed. And traffic has not halted for a moment. Work ceases for an hour at noon and at 5 o'clock the final whistle blows. Local experts figure that the pro- ject will be completely finished within three weeks.

INEXTINGUISHABLE ENERGY

Mark Twain remarked that it was the duty of every to agitate; true he voted down as fool but someday would hit the right spot and emerge a hero.
 Evidently John E. Balaine has followed the Twain ian philosophy. Mr. Baaine has been agitating for greater and better Alaska since the days when the Alaska Northern and the Alaska Central railroad pro ject launched The present frltlOn Of that ag1ta tion is the Alaska Railroad ceavng the western portion of the Territory from Resurrection Bay to Fairbanks True the things Mr. Balaine anticipated did not fruc fy In fullness For which he was in no ways to blame Rather it the misguided air-hght conservation policy that put sprag in the development era that should have followed the building of the railroad
 Yet undaunted MT. Ballaine has never fatered in weaving his dream stuff He has dreamed of big in- dustries and big city where little Seward nestles amidst her picturesque and scenic attractions It appears that of these dreams is destined to true It is the big lumber corporation, capitalized for $1O000y000 which representatives are in Alaska to make preliminary examination of tremendous of birch, spruce and cottonwood timber cenering about Susitna station, 19 miles west of Nancy Station on the railroad
 1t MT. Baaine who cruised the area and whose energies enlisted the interest of this big group capitalists If he succeeds in launching the project he will exercise tremendous influence upon the economic life in the railroad belt and open up vast field of tvlty for a large number of workers.
 It is the men who never defeated mentally and who dream big things that contribute the most to the world. With respect to Western Alaska none have exercised more tireless energy more deserving of success than John Ballaine.
 Well it's good thing that they are building road up to the government fish hatchery at Ltnk Afog nak Island so they can propagate salmon. Kodiak bear may have lean if the cattle and sheep don't hold out.

ment at the Park View School In ac-
cordance with its establishment there
before his Inauguration as superintend-
ent and the subsequent recommenda.
ton of the United States Bureau OF
Efficiency. In his efforts to improve
the platoon type of school organization
at the PARK View Building, DR.. Ballou
told the board that he transferred that
school from the third division to the
fifth division so that 1t might be under
a supervising principal who appeared
70 be most sympathetic toward the
system: that. although 1t was an un-
usual procedure. he appointed as prin-
cipal of the school. following the death
of its original head, teacher who. was
recommended solely by the supervising
principal as the person in the entire
system most suited for the assignment;
that he adopted the recommeE dation
of the Bureau of Efficiency In 1928 Tor
the establishment of two platoon ex-
detrimental schools here and agreed to
continue the platoon school for white
children in the Park View Building, and
that he supported q budget estimate
for this proposal before the lDstrlcG
Commissioners. the Bureau OF the
Budget, and the appropriations COM
mittees of Congress.
Says All Moves Misconssrued.
"I am now concerned with the proper
discharge of my off1cial responsibilities
in connection with the efficient organt-
cation of the Park View school as
platoon type school," DR.. Ballou con-
tinued, and 1t would appear from past
experiences that any move on my part
or on the part of the school officials at
Headquarters or of the Board OF Edu-
cation is likely to be construed as an
tagonistic to the success of the Park
View School.

est desire to create at the Park View
School and in the proposed school in
divisions 1913 for colored pupils
schools which shall represent the best
ideals and the most ef1cient and APP
proved organization of a platoon type
school and in the hope that this rec
concentration will remove this organi-
zation of these schools from the field

/ propose that the Board of Education
ask an outside agency. either compe-
tent in itself or in a position to secure
competent advice, to study the Park
View situation and report to the Board
of Education on the organization of
that schoolI Since it is contemplated
that the additions to the Park View
building will be completed by Septem-
Der. 1880, it is my thought that this
agency would study this situation and
report to the Board Of Education by
the end of this school year. I am conf
dent that the school officials and the
Board of Education sympathetically
and sincerely will put into operation
the organization that this outside
agency may propose. II this procedure
is followed I believe that 1t should re-
suit in such an organization as will
make 1t possible. with a minimum of
friction and misunderstanding, to carry

In his letter Dr. Ballou cited the re-
cent rebellion Of the parents of the 81
children who were ordered transferred
from the Park View School to the Mon

was made in conformity with a city
wide policy. and the protest of the par

fronting the school ofncials and the

board In his letter. whenever any
such move In the interests of more
efficient organization and the proper
utilization of building facilities Is made
at Park View, the assertion is irnmedi-
