OUTDOOR JOBS
SHOW GAIN

Employment increased in con
nection with practically all out
door activities during April, &C
cording to the monthly review OF
the Department of Labor yester,
day.
The situation existing through
out the country, however, could
not be described as satisfactory,
the review stated.
At the same time, it was said,
indications are that there will
be an improvement in operations
and industrial plants during May,
and a further expansion in all
outdoor work.
OF the industrial situation dur
Ing April, the review said:
"While the major industries
were in operation, curtailed
schedules continued In many,
necessarily affecting a large
number of workers. There
was considerable idleneSs in
some localities.
There was no real improve
1nent in the iron and steel in.

ward trend in operation and
employment in these mills did

Prohibition.
Boston News Bureau)

Whenever the Boston News Bureau makes any reference to Prohibition it is usually castigated through the mails by indignant though frequently anonymous readers. The burden of the letters re- ceived is always that a financial newspaper has no business to have or express opinion on the Prohibition question.
 Recently the Government of the United States through it's Department of Justice, in a formal com municaton, requested the Boston News Bureau to inform aforesaid Government fin confidence" wheth- CT not the paper was in favor of Prohibition, and it's for it's position.
 As the Boston News Bureau has at least as much confidence in it's subscribers and readers as it has in the Bureau of Prohibition, which was the particular subdivision of the Department Of Justice of the Government of the United States which expressed such interest in the Boston News Bureaus opinion here the questions asked by the Government of the United States, and the re- plies thereto:
 Question l. Is your paper in favor of Prohibition?
 Answer: No.
 Question g. Is your paper against Pro- hibition?
 Answer: Yes
 Question 3. Is your paper neutral on the subject of Prohibition?
 Answer: No.
 Question 4 Will you state briefly your reasons for adopting the policy you are ad- vocating?
 Answer Prohibition" inevitably promotes intemperance and has already undone a generations progress towards temperance
 Prohibition" is based on misconception of the nature of constitution, on the mis- taken assumption that law and legislation are identical, and misunderstanding of human nature.
 The continuing presence in the Consti- tuition of the United States of the police regulations known the 18th Amendment, and in the Federal and State statutes of the legislative lie known the Volstead Act constitutes a demoralizng menace to constitutional and representative govern ment.

GOV. ROOSEVELT AND THE
 PRESIDENCY.

The decision of Gov Roosevelt to devote all Of his ability and time to being Governor of New York instead of dividing interest between his office and campaign for the Presidency is creditable to him. That he made in good faith the statement that he will not approve any movement to launch a Presidential boom for himself there is no doubt. The Governorshp of State with 12,000,00o inhabi- tants is a big job and that requires all Of ones best efforts and time.
 The Presidency is position that ought to go to the man who deserves it most and not to one who wins it through campaigning for it. The man who deserves it most is the that is best doing his duty wherever he has been called to work. Gov Roosevelt can earn Presidential nomination better by making the very best possible Governor of New York than in any other way.
 However whatever may be Gov Roosevelts at tude in the premises, he cannot prevent people from considering him the most available timber for the Presidency in 1882. Several people have earned Presidential nominations through services as Governor of New York and two New York Governors have become President within the last half century That Gov Roosevelt is about to carry on the pre- cedents of Grover Cleveland and Theodore Roose- velt there are many reasons to believe

The Primary Need.
Seward Gateway)

There would seem to be little argument about the proposition that the search and finding oi minerals the quickest and surest means of open ing up a new country. There was the Mormon trek to the Great Salt Lake in 1847 but that was to escape persecution in Illinois There was some land seeking in Oregon before 1850 but the big thing that started the development of the West was the discovery of gold in California. Agricul- ture didn't get it's start until some time later In California after the mad gold fever had abated and few far-sighted pilgrims realized the im portance of raising the food immediately at hand instead of bringing it around the Horn
 In Canada the fur traders were the first to penetrate the far places as indeed, they were Tn the Northwest United States, and in Canada agrl- culture and mining seemed to run neck and neck for many years.
 Now, however, minerals are the exciting motive that send men into the bush and behind them will come the railroads which are paying in Canada TOT the search that is going today. It must be ad- lmted however, it the desire to find an eastern water outlet for wheat that built the Hudson Bay Railroad. We, in Alaska, now contemplate with mixed emotions the spectacle of paid men of the Canadian Pacific flying hither and yon in the search for mineral that will justify the 0. F. R. lin penetrating the far North.
 Agriculturists have a long hard struggle in a country without population enough to furnish them la market Where mining precedes them, their prob lems are solved if the soil is there.
 How do these things concern Alaska? Obviously, lit would seem, that if the Alaska Railroad can spend money to induce settlers and homesteaders Ito come in for agricultural purposes it should spend money to induce prospectorS to go into the nils and search for mineral deposits that may become mines If the mines are found the farmers will lcome of their own accord because the market will await them If money only be spent for one purpose we believe it should be for the pros pector because minerals are the chief potential wealth of the Territory. The discovery and open ing of these deposits will bring the quickest and surest development of the country.

PERsHING's WAR STORY COMING.

An announcement of more than passing interest was made recently to the effect that Gen Pershing story of the World War would appear in the New York Times beginning sometime next January. This should be one of the finest of all of the many war histories written by Americans for American con- sumption As Commander in Chief of the American Armies in France from the beginning of the par tcipation of the United States until the close Of the conflict, he in position to know the inside history as well as that which all observers know. Others have told interestingly how Pershing made war perhaps his story will enlghten the nation on the official background which enabled him to be the competent and efficient military leader Of Americas fighting machine far away from home.
