the United States Public Health Service has now been provided fol at Morningside is said to be de cided improvement and should be of advantage to the in- stitution and to the patients"
 Fur Regulations Beneficial
 In 1928, furs valued at S4,277,- 34713 were shipped out of Alaska an increase of s617,406 over 1927 While the increase is largely &C., counted for by the higher market prices, the conservative measures adopted by the Alaska Game Com mission in recent years have been most beneficial" the report said. Excellent results have been achiev- ed in the prevention of destruction of wild life and in the encourage ment of conservation of fur-bear- ing animals.
 War on predatory animals. espec- lally wolves and coyotes, has been waged constantly by the Terri tory, but the means at it's disposal are not adequate for the task in vclved. "The problem is one that requires Federal cooperation.
 Three thousand dollars have been contributed by the Biological Survey, but because of the nature of the work and since the Federal government contributes to similar work elsewhere, an additional ap- propriation of S1O,0OO should be made available"
 Mining Law Changes
 Land laws, generally, are satisfac- tory, said the report. "But the restrictions on placer mining loca- tions imposed by the present law are ecessary and initiate against the development of low grade placer deposits. The present law was intended to prevent the monopolization of high grade de- posits by an individual locater. The richer deposits have been exhausted and we must look to the low grade gravels for our future gold produc- tion."
 This requires expensive prepara- tion and machinery. and unless a large area can be acquired, the cost is too heavy tp permit profitable development. "The law as ap- piled elsewhere permits unrestrict- ed location of claims and this should be true in Alaska. During the past year practically all the commercial bodies in Alaska re- commend return to the original law and stated they believe the present law is retarding mining de- velopment."
 Other Subjects Cove-e=
 The report covers many other subjects. The Alaska school sys- tenn, including the Alaska College, public schools and the Federal sys- tenn for educating the Indians and Eskimos, is reviewed.
 Surveys by the Coast and Geo.

gram to develop the National For estS in Alaska through their utiliza- tion for the manufacture of pulp and paper. These forests contain about 85 85,000,000,000 board feet of timber, understood to be about 13 per cent of the total forest reserves of the United States. An annual cut of 1,0o0,000,Oo0 board feet could be sustained without endangering the life of the reserves. Forest Service engineers estimate that l. 100000 tons of newsprint may be manufactured each year without in jury to the forests" and there is an overabundance of" waterpower available for this development.
 Accurate maps are a necessity for efficient utilization and administra- tion of the public lands, especially the forests The lands and re- sources are owned by the United States and are disposed of through Federal agencies, hence the sur veys should be made by the Gov ernment" Typographical surveys are particularly needed and an ap- propriation of $7,500 for this work was urged for next year.
 Aerial Mapping Valuable
 The Governor stressed the value

detic Survey along the Alaska Pen. insula and Aleutian Islands art recommended as being necessary.
 Commercial aviation has been 2 great boon to Alaska. In it's policy of encouraging it's development, the Territory has financed the con- struction of 67 landing fields, anc is expending 30 per cent of it's an- nual road appropriation in adding to them. "The feasibility and practicability of flying at all sea sons of the year has been demon strated beyond question" the Gov ernor said.
 Occupies Strategic Position
 Continuing the report said:
 The Territory occupies a strate- gic position on the proposed air routes from Europe and Asia and the Federal government should pro- vide an airport for the use of the Army and Navy. The Bureau of Fisheries, United States Forest Service, Geological Survey, Alaska Game Commission and other Fed eral organizations have much work that could be performed by an aeroplane and one should be pro- vided"
 Two Institutions Needed
 The Governor emphasized the need of an Industrial and Training School for the natives in Southeast Alaska and for a detention home for the native minors. Concern ing the first, he said:
 The children should be given industrial training adapted to the vacations they must follow and in an environment with which they are familiar"
 Urging an institution for delin- quent children of native blood he said:
 Tt is inevitable that some cf them will become a burden on so- ciety unless they are placed in an institution where they can be prop erly trained It is unwise to send them out of the Territory to be disciplined because they do not un- derstand the reason for the pro- cedure and sometimes urge others to do something wrong so they, too, may be taken on a long trip.

LOCAL MILL IS
 BUYER OF BIG {. TIMBER TRACT
Buys 10,000,000 Board Feet Tn Tract on Hecate
 Island, Announced

The sale of 10,000,000 board feet of timber to the Juneau Lum- Der Mills by the United States For est Service was consummated to- day, according to an announcement made by Asst. District Forester B. F. Heintzleman It will be logged off next season and cut in the mills plant here.
 The timber is located on the north end of Hecate Island and is known as the Sea Otter" tract. It is mixed spruce and hemlock but spruce predominates. It will be used for saw timber for next years operations, MT. Heintzleman said.
 Owing to the preponderance of spruce, the cut will run heavily to clears which find a ready market in the States, and much of it will be shipped there. It is expected it will require virtually the entire season to log the tract.

some of the larger mines and of laborers at some of the canneries is accounted for by the increased &C., tivity in prospecting in other dis tricts.
 "On a basis of 300 working days per man per year, the fishing and mining industries absorb about 96 per cent of the labor employed in the Territory and of this amount the fisheries account for 84 per cent"
 Alaska Insane Problem
 For 25i2 years Alaskas insane have been cared for at Morning side Sanitarium at Portland Ore. Recently a contract was awarded this institution for another five year period.

home in Alaska would not be much greater than the cost of sending them out of the Territory and the results would be far more benefi- cial"
 Other Betterments Sought
 The Governor urged immediate completion of the Mt. Mckinley National Park Road System, de- claring it would bring material in- crease to the revenues of the Alas ka Railroad
 From a commercial standpoint, he said, it would be advisable to merge all of the Navy radio sta- tions with the similar plants oper-

ated by the Army and put the en- tire system in the hands of the Sig- nal Corps.
 Federal buildings at Ketchikan and Fairbanks are too small, old, and in poor condition. They should be replaced by new and larger structures.
 Consolidation of law enforcement agencies, at least those having to do with prohibition and other criminal laws under the Department of Jus tice is again urged. A revenue cutter for western Alaska waters is recommended.
 The projected international high way would be of great benefit to Alaska and Canada and a joint investigation by the United States and Canada is recommended.

 In this event it probably could cover the remaining 500 miles from Bordeaux to its home port here by niEhtfall and land in the early eve ming, completing the voyage from l.akehurst, N. J., in about 55 hours, slightly less than was needed for the last Atlantic voyage few weeks ago.
 The Ieppelin's position as radio ed here at a. m. G1 D. m. E. S. T. Sunday) was given at 36.1b north and 21.15 west position about D. 96o miles from Lakehurst. The elapsed time of the voyage indicated speed of just less than 75 miles an hour.
 From the q, m. position (mid- European ttme) to the mainland al Cape Finisterre was about ITO miles and to Fricdrchshafen, about 1,SO( miles the least hazardous part of her | flight from America.
