 Authorized by Trail Bureau

The Forest Service trail bu- reau has authorized eXpendi- lures of $200 for repairing the Fish Creek Titan trail during the current season, according to a telegram received by Jack Fitzgerald from Forest Ranger M. J.. Wyckoff, supervisor of forest service trail projects in this district.
 The message authorized MT. Fitzgerald to make within the limits of the appropriation such repairs as may be re- quired, employing necessary labor at the rate of $6 per day and board. The trail is report ed in bad shape, with many deadfalls and other obstruct- ions.

The saw mill of the Hyder Lumber Company resumed its lumber cutting operations Fri day and is expected to remain active throughout the remain der of the season. The com pany has been awarded the contract for supplying the nec- essary lumber for the project ed mill and camp on the Big Missouri property, which will comprise many thousands of feet. and will keep the mill busy for a considerable period.
 In anticipation of increasing lumber demands, the company recently ordered another large raft of logs from the Ketchikan district and anticipates order ing at least one more before the fall storms render rafting precarious. The company re- gently received big raft of saw logs containing upward of a quarter million feet of tim Der.

 The commissioners named by the president were Herbert H. Rice, of Detroit, an official of the General Motors Corpor- ation; Ernest Walker Sawyer, acting assistant secretary of the interior and an interchangeable worker in the interest of Alas ka, and Major Malcolm Elliott, United States Engineer Corps, and president of the Alaska Road Commission.

FLOOD CONTROL
 SITUATION GOOD

Inspection of the Salmon River flood control works by a delegation of citizens this week disclosed that the project is working out in excellent man. ner under the direction of MT. T. H. Evans, local superintend- ent of the Bureau of Public Roads. Piloted by MT. Evans, the party found the turbulent stream rushing in a swelling torrent along the western side of the high, wooded bar ex- tending down the river basin west of town. Here a wide and deep channel has been formed by stream action since the river was diverted last fall rom its former course along the camps western border.
 Aside from two large trees which were undermined and fell across the stream in recent days, impeding but not block ading its flow, the river was free of obstructions and appar- ently in shape to handle a vast ly larger flow of water. It was also apparent that the stream is steadily working further to the westward and farther away from town. MT. Evans is of the opinion that this will continue as long as the channel is kept free of Instructions and will ultimately force h e stream we'll over toward the far side of the valley. Constant vigilance and watchfulness are necessary to keep the channel clear, however, and, as indicat- ed by Highway Engineer R. J. Sommers during his recent vis- t, additional funds must be provided for keeping the new course free of stumps and logs pending an appropriation for future maintenance by the Alaska legislature. The remov- al of the fallen trees referred
 o above, consumed the last of he maintenance funds on hand and further money re- quirements must be raised by local contributions. No effort will be made in that direction, however, until it becomes nec- essary to do so, as it is thought the channel may remain fairly clear during the remainder of the low water period. How ever, it is impossible to tell when a new bunch of debris will be washed into the chan nel from the timber-filled bars higher up the stream. When this occurs there will be imme- diate need for funds and citi- zens will then be asked to con- tribute the amount necessary 70 meet the emergency.

 and expressed the view that after completing the Texas Creek highway and the pro- jected Salmon River road i'm provements will have done all that can reasonably be ex- pected of it in opening up the district for mineral develop ment.
 "We feel" he said, " that we have done our share in helping you to open up your mines and it is now up to you to make use of the facilities provided in de- veloping a mineral production that will justify the Bureaus expenditures"
 MT. Williams said he real ized that lowered silver and other metal prices had serious ly retarded the development anticipated at the time the Tex as Creek highway project was authorized. Indications at that time appeared to assure a sub- stantial mineral production from the Texas Creek section if improved means of transpor- tation were provided. Mir. Will Hams expressed regret that the expected development had so far failed to materialiZe and pointed out that the results ob- tained from the government's S effort to assist mine develop. ment here will have an import ant effect in determining it's at titude toward road develop ment in other promising min eral areas in the Territory. Tt is now up to you people" he said in conclusion, 'to show by the development of mines that the confidence of the Bu- reau in the mineral possibili- ties of your district was justi- fled"
 MT. Sommers discussed the road situation from much the same standpoint as MT. Will jams, stating that he had con cured in recommending the Texas Creek project on behalf of the Territory in the belief that the mineral deposits of that section promised ample ! justification for the large ex- l penditures involved. Although mine development had not 1 progressed to the extent antic- 1 ipated up to this time, better results may be anticipated in the future, as it was probable that owners of mining proper ties were more or less inclined to delay their activities until the completion of the road pro- Evided cheaper means of trans portation.
 1 Mir. Sommers next turned his attention to the Salmon River flood control project devised by him last year and said il was working out in an entirely satisfactory manner. The pres ent outlook is that the diver, sion of the stream to the west
