HIGH MORMON CHURCHMAN'S
 VISITOR HERE
Bishop Sloan Tn Juneau to Familiarize Himself
 with Alaska

To check up on Mormon Church work in Alaska and to confer with missionaries of the church in the field, Bishop w R. Sloan, President of the Northwestern States Mis- 1sisn of the Mormon Church, is in Juneau. He arrived here on the Alaska, coming from Portland which is the Headquarters Of the Northwestern States Mission.
 The Northwest Mission of the Mormon Church consists of the west half of Montana, the Idaho Panhandle, oregon, Washington British Columbia and Alaska. It contains, according to Bishop Sloan. 10000 members of the Norm n Church, and there are 1f9 mission aries laboring in the field in behalf of the church, each giving from two to three years gratuitiously for the church, caid Bishop Sloan, who continued:
 Among these missionaries are students, bank clerks, farmers, doc- tors and men in all walks of life.
 ''The work of the mission is growing rapidly. During the last year s232 GOO were spent for chapels the larger part of which, $l40Oot was for a magnificent chapel al Portland.
 "In addition to checking up or the work in Alaska I am making my initial trip to this Territory to familiarize myself with the condi- tions here and qualify myself to aid in making way for more mis- sionary work in the Territory.
 The first work of the Mormon Church in Alaska was in 1913 when two missionaries were sent to Ju- neau. They were here for a few weeks, and did lot of investigat- ing. No systematic work was done here. however, unti May. 1928, when four missionaries were sent into the Territory. They and others have labored continuously since that time with gratifying results. I have had weekly reports from then and it has been, indeed pleasant to note the candid reception that has been rendered them by Gov. George A. Parks, Territorial Secre- tary Karl Theile, the various Cham bers Of Commerce, leading citizens, etc. I.feel that you must have a splendid citizenry in Alaska, judg- ing from the reports which have been forthcoming.
 T have received detailed reports from these missionaries of your in dustries, and other development, your splendid school system I have learned that you have world of undeyeloped resources that must someday attract young Americans from the States. am convinced that your leading men may look

Memorial Day! The very sound brings poignant memories to most of us, for who that has lived through the last war can forget the noble sacrifices made by those who staked all that Am erica might live in happiness and pros perity.. .. Today the cannon have been stilled, fading fast are even the mem ories of carnage; and the world is unit ing in efforts to effect universal peace forever. :. As we grow nearer to this beautiful ideal, we must not forget he brave soldiers whose dauntless courage and love of country paved the way to future progress. Setting out on battles fer right causes, giving their lives for their fellows, they have brought us nearer the good time when men shall truly live as brother and swords shall be beaten into ploughshares.

gresham Garner led the fight to
increase this rate 10 3 cents. and
the ways and means committee,
owe the opposition Of New England
and New York representatives, sub
mitted an amendment to increase
the rate 70 2 cents.
The Fordney-McC umber bill-the
present tariff-carried a l-cent rate
on onions. Upon recommendation
Of the tariff commission the presi-
dent increased this to ! ID cents,
the maximum under the flexible
tariff provision. While this in
crease has proved Of some benefit
1t fails TO cover the difference IN
the cost of production and trans
portation between domestic and for
eign-grown onions. Egyptian and
Spanish onions. produced by cheap
labor and securing low water rates
to the American consuming centers
on the Atlantic seaboard, are COM
ing in large quantities. u Is the
claim Of Congressman Garner and
the various associations of onion
growers that a rate of 3 cents is
required to fully cover the differ
ence in the cost Of production and
transportation.
Battle Promised
The battle which will be inaugu-
rated to transfer long staple cot

of the tariff bill. The various ag-

that this is one of the few aCri-
cultural products listed among the
staples upon which n tariff will
prove OF material benefit. Produc-

consumption and as a result large
quantities are imported. principally
from Egypt.
Advocates of a duty on long staple
cotton assert that an ample supply
for domestic needs could be grown
in South Texas and Arizona if the
growers were granted protection.
Practically all of South Texas IS
well adapted TO the growing Of long
staple. and its production in that
area would eliminate a large acre

rest Of the cotton belt.
