ALASKA IS LUCKY TO BE FAR
 AWAY. SAYS CAPT. LATHROP
(Anchorage Times.)

Alaska is fortunate just now in being far removed from the States, ini the opinion of Captain A. E. Latin rop, who returned to Fairbanks few days ago fro ma visit tiethes States. he, says, are in rather bad way at present, with no. promise of imnedi- ate, improvements, and while Alaska must eventually feel the, effects of the general depression to some ex- tent, the Territory. is too far away and the resources too varied, in his opinionss to permit of any serious slowing down in business here.
 Many explanations of the depres- sion are being offered in the States, says Captain Lathrop. Too much speculation, overpruduction, decreas- ing foreign trade. in some lines, too fast pacethese and others are being given as contributing causes of the condition in which the country finds itself. And no wthere. are, some who are ready to hold the new tariff law responsible for inailibty of prospper- ity to stage an immediate comeback. Opinion on the. new schedules, as was indicated by the vote in Congress, is fairly evenly divided throughout the country, many believing the new rates will be helpful, while others de- clare they will make conditions worse.
 Conditions are much worse in the East than they are on the Pacific coast, the Captain says, but the de- pression is gradually growing West, the Northwestern section heinz; the last to feel the slowing down of busi- ness. In addition to causing mach unemployment, the depression also is Bringing about q downward revision bringing about a downward revision bringing about q downward revision of wages as well as lowered prices generally.
 The railroads of the country are feeling the depression very keenly, says Captain Lathrop. Not only has there been a general slowing up of their business due to general condi- tions, but they also are being hard hit by diversion of freight and pas senger traffic to water carriers ply ing the canal route, and by the in- creasing popularity of auto stages and airpianes. Thirty-two passenger planes are nos wbeing operated on regular schedules along the coast, and the low fares charged are proving very attractive tb travellers, with the result that the planes are carrying full loads in all directions.

School Salaries Show Increase


The average salary for white ele-
mentary school teachers and princi-
pals in Maryland was $29 higher in
1929 than in 1928, according to the
State Board of Education. Last
years average salary was 81, 1874.
This amount represents the result
of a series of gradual yearly increas-
es In salaries the last ten years, from
$521 in 1919. Accompanying this
increase in recompense, it was said,
has been an increased proportion of
teachers.
Average salaries in the counties in
1929 ranged from 1891 in St. Mary's
J. to $1,518 in Baltimore county. One
lof the reasons advanced for 1.-The
higher salaries in Baltimore county
was the fact that the classes in that
county are larger than in any other
county, of the State.
The average paid in Baltimore city
81, 1922, brings the average for the
State to 81, 1853. The average paid
Tin Cecil county is 81, 10.
In one-teacher schools the average
salary was $1.1O2; in two-teacher
schools, 81, 161, and in larger county
schools, 81, 222. The increase of $53
for one-teacher schools since last
year led in amount the increases of
$40 and SIG respectively for the two
teacher and larger institutions.
Most of the teachers with training
less than that received from two
year normal school course or
its equivalent were in one-teacher
schools. AS teachers with made
quate training have left the service.
their places have been taken by nor
mal-school graduates, thus increasing
the proportion paid higher salaries,
it was said.
Since it is difficult to attract or
hold normal-school graduates. in
the one and two-teacher schools, the
law requires that they be paid 500
more than they would receive teach
ing as an assistant in larger school.
The minimum State salary for a
normal school graduate is $3.50 for
the first three years OF experience.
1,050 for the next three years.
81. 100 for the following three years.
bringing the maximum OF $1, 15O|
after eight years of experience.

Gold Star Mothers To Visit

Thirty six Gold Star Mothers from
Maryland will visit the graves of
their sons who were killed in action
in France. The group will sail in
May and the expense will be borne
by the Federal Government.
Twenty-three of the women are
Baltimoreans, the remainder being
from the counties. The Maryland
group will be the twenty-first State
unit of mothers or widows of soldiers
killed during the World War.
Under law passed by Congress
the money covering the travel expen-
ses of the units will be available
until December 81, 1888.
The precedence in which the units
are to go was determined by Mrs.
Herbert Hoover, who drew the
names of the States from a silver
bowl. Nebraska was first.

The Marylander thinks the propos-

Bay, has become short circuited
political wire, for the time being at
least. The political current, instead
Of running in cycles, has been cross
ing.
In the. beginning there was great
rush on the part of certain statesmen
to propose action, but since the shore
counties have registered opposition,
it is generally thought at this time
that in event the bridge is built it will
be more likely, SO, from private

A conference with the object OF
bringing about tariff truce is being
held in Geneva. The affair is almost
entirely European, though Japan is
represented. Those optimistic over
such conference hope the partici-
pating powers will agree not to raise
duties over a certain period of years.
The scandinavian countries, Ger.
many, Holland and Switzerland favor
such a truce. France is strongly
opposed.
