BONDS HOLD FIRM
IN QUIET MARKET
Prime Investment Issues Re.
tain Striking Gains Made
During Week.
BY JOHN L. COOLEY.
Associated Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, March 22.-The bond
market fluctuated narrowly today in a
quiet Saturday session. Gains of tho
present week were easily maintained by
the pivotal investment issues, which
held very firm, especially in the railroad
group.
bonds in this week of soaring prices
totaled approximately 100000, a
new high for more than two years. The
Curb,S list has also been extremely
active, while dealings in unlisted securi-
ties. which account for a heavy ma
jority of the bond trading, reached al
most phenomenal proportions.
With a period of easy money generally
expected despite the week end advance
from the per cent level, there was no
disposition to unload recent purchases
today. and prices were virtually I'M
changed. Pennsylvania gold SIS, North
ern Pacific prior lien As, New York Cen
tral IS, Frisco prior lien As. Santa Fe
General As, Canadian Pacific As and
Rock Island and Chesapeake & Ohio
AIS displayed marked f1rmness. Ros-
ton g. Maine 5s took squirt of about a
point. A $4,000 900 issue of first mort
gage SIS by this road is expected early
next week. Seaboard As scared nearly
4 points, and Seaboard all Florida IS
advanced 3lk.
The trend toward speculative and
senai-speculative industrials brought fair
gains to numerous issues. Investment
utilities were quiet and steady. Con-
vertibles made small changes.
Active foreign bonds included the
listings of Belgium and Australia, but
price movements were not spectacular
Liberty bonds and Treasures were dull

LIKE THE SWALLOWS IN SPRING

Like the swallows in spring the return of General Manager Col Otto F Ohlson, of the Alaska Railroad marks the usherng in of spring activities. Colonel Ohl- son returns like victorious general from War-loaded with the aues of victory in that ne has secured ample funds with which to carry on the operation of the rail- road and secured the endorsement of his program for similating the entire Railroad Zone
 Each year has seen Colonel OhlsOn approaching nearer and nearer to his goathat of pairing down the red ink column and developing larger industrial vo tune for this portion of Alaska It has taken time and patience but may be said that the foundation has been laid for continued steady progress based upon the de- veopment of practical ideas.
 One item that promises to prove strong factor in the future of this district is the transference of the reindeer industry from the Seward pennsuar to prox imity to the railroad In this item alone revenue to the railroad running into hundreds of thousands of dol lars annually looms Rehabilitation of roadbed and mod ern rolling equipment further reduce operating costs
 On top of all this will be an organized campaign to attract capital and settlers Instead of haphazard generaes with respect to opportunities Colonel Oh- son Is creating them permanent lines in the encour agement of activities that will be lasting.
 Colonel Ohlson returns to find his big railroad fam fly enthusiastic and working like snlooth-oed mach inc with no serious contentious questions Thus the coming spring and summer should be one of the best for many years

Validity Of Trol[ers Tax
 Is Attacked

JUNEAU, Feb, 28, fP)-To ex- pediate the hearing on suit filed attacking the validity of the Ter ritorial non-residents trollers tax, Attorney General Rustgard left for ketchikan where the district court is now in session to get the matter settled without delay so as not to interfere with the collection of tax for the current year.
 Complaint in the case was filed here Tuesday by Lund & Lund Of Seattle, representing Wood Free man of Tacoma, a power boat trol- Ter. He alleges the tax is unjust and in an excessive amount; that 1t violates the constitutional rights of American citizens. Also, to at tempt to regulate the fishing in oustry is not a revenue measure.
 The tax is S25O for non-residents and S1 for Alaskans. A general demurrer will be made by Rustgard that the facts are insufficient to constitute cause for action.

 We would be highly pleased if our thankfulness could be proper " expressed in sending to him something which may become a souvenir, which, however, whimsi- cally it may sound, might be the means to make us known to each other, and further our effort to bring about the realization of the dream of the earthly paradise which our university has only tra- ditionally cherished in religious nope.

ciples, thus modified, was announced by
the executive committee of the citizens
Joint committee october 81, 1923, as
follows:
We contend, first, that the United
States should contribute largely to the
maintenance and upbuilding of the Ma
tional Capital; second, that this con-
tribution should be a fixed and definite
proportion; third, that this proportion
should be y-forty-sixty by the Dis
trict taxpayers and forty by the United
States.
While Congress has refused all prop
ositions to amend the definite proper
tionate contribution provision of the
law of 1922, and while the SiXty-forty
provision is the existing substantive
law, Congress in 1924 provided as a
temporary provision on the annual ap-
preparation act for the fiscal year 1925
lump-sum payment contribution, in
lieu Of the forty per cent contribution
provided by substantive law, and has
renewed this exception to the provisions
of substantive law in each annual ap-
preparation act since that date.
The citizens joint committee urges
q return in appropriation practice to
the sixty forty definite proportion ap-
preparation plan, as provided by exist
ing substantive law, for the reasons set
forth in the argument appended to and
made a part of this petition.
Your petitioners further respectfully
represent that as long as lump-sum
payment is the appropriation practice
temporarily on annual appropriation
acts immediate correction should be
made of some of its grosser and more
obvious injustices.
To prevent glaring inequity, your
petitioners therefore urge, for reasons
stated in the argument hereto attached
as part of this petition, that Congress
should ~ increase substantially, both
on general and specific grounds, the
basic lump sum payment; (2) exclude
