the Government and the Post ONCE
Department.
We call it by the less Objectionable
name Of subvention.
The point is this-it Is merchant
marine act and not Post once De-
partment act.
Powers are given the Postmaster
General, with the expectation that
that official and that department would
cooperate with the Shipping Board
and the Merchant Fleet Corporation
to advance the purpose and spirit of
the act. The classification OF vessels
and the compensation under the con-
tracts are all set forth in the act.
The pay is not to exceed from $3.50
to $l2 per nautical mile-depending
on the class of vessel.
Recurring to section 407-the source
of trouble-it will be observed, the term
Lowest bidder" is somewhat qualified.
It would seem that q reasonable in
depreciation of all of the law bearing
on the subject would leave the Post
master General with ample authority
to award the contract to the best in
tereStS of the merchant marine, without
necessarily choosing the bidder who Of

least compensation.

runs annually one-third of the COM
merce of the United States, much more
than the Pacific Coast furnishes, and
yet the mail pay allotted to the Pacific
Coast amounts to $5,788,5l2. To give
New York company q contract on a
route out of the Gulf cannot be con-
sidered as carrying out the mandate
that these aids shall be equitably dis
tributed
1t is estimated that the receipts Of
the Post Office Department on ocean
mails amount to some $l3,500,000 per
annum.
There has been proposed an increase
in pay to railroads for carrying the
mails Of approximately $18,O0O,O00 per
annum. 1t Is estimated the Govern
ment loses nearly $4,000, 900 by reason
or postal rates on periodicals.
Considering the returns. the benefits
to commerce. the advancement of our
merchant marine, the requirements
with respect 10 the demands of national
defense, it Is believed the act of 1923
Is needed and ought to be carried out
in its purpose and spirit. "
In awarding additional mall contracts
the Post ONCE Department and the
Shipping Board should first take care
Of the established Government lines
Wnlcn can De sold TO the operators OF
those lines with this mail aid. No
steamship company which operates
foreign flag ships In competition with
American flag ships should be given
this mail aid. This aid is intended
solely for private American companies
which operate American flag ships and
whose sole interest is the building up of
the American merchant marine.
Industrial lines, engaged in serving
only their own particular business con-
Germs wishing means of transporting
their own products, almost exclusively,
should not be considered eligible bidders.
Varying circumstances in each case must
be taken into consideration in awarding
contracts with the view always in mind,
as of first Importance, the achievement
Of the object to secure the establish
ment and maintenance on q permanent
basis OF an adequate American mer-
chant marine.

OF Congress and to aid the lines es-
tablished and developed by the Gov
eminent at great expense when they
are transferred to the local private
companies who are best qualified to
own and operate them.
Urges Amendment Of Act.
1t would be we'll to relieve the sub
ject OF all question for Congress to
amend the act by directing the con-
tract In each case shall be let to the
responsible bidder who complies with
the requirements set forth In section
OF the act of 1920 and meets the
conditions respecting the purpose to
establish and maintain an American
merchant marine.

OF an established line which he has
acquired from the Shipping Board, on
the expectation of obtaining the mail

In excess Of the requirements imposed
by the Shipping Board when the con-
tract OF purchase was made, would be
manifestly unfair and would defeat the
very purpose of the act.
Specifications and conditions as to
requirements, or in other respects. as
TO which the Postmaster General has
wide power, may be set up in such
fashion as to preclude the possibilities
Of compliance.
In that case no contract follows, the
aid is prevented, the opportunity to
build up q desirable service Is not
availed of. the disposal Of Government
ships is made impossible, resulting in
sacrifices.
The Government still has many lines
to dispose Of. worth and for which it
can obtain many millions of dollars,
and it is in the public interest to so
administer these laws as to not only
lished services but to return to the
Government many of the millions spent
in the development of the lines.
1t would be most difficult to provide
in detail requirements adapted to every
case that might arise. The admins
tradition Of the law, therefore, becomes
Of prime Importance. The manner of
putting a law into execution and the
process of administration at times re-
suits in making the purpose Of Congress
miscarry. Much depends on the adj
ministration of the law In good faith
and effectively.
One provision Of the 1928 act Is,
repeat, that these mail contracts shall
be made for service equitably distrib-
uted. Under the contracts thus far let
mail pay will amount to approximately
$l2,600.0 900. OF this amount only $751;

 Not very much has been done i'll a genuinely constructive way to make real fur farming in dustry possible. The Legisla- ture once required us to brand our foxes, furnished us brand st $10 but no one has ever dis covered how to use it. And the Congress of the United States in a misguided attempt to es- tablish fur farming in Alaska passed a measure providing for fur farms of thirty square miles areal What a D ity someone could not have suggested at the time that it is not bigger fur

Then they hold farmers insti- tutes" and give the common Clodhoppers the benefit of their scientific investigations and re- searches. Fox raising means to the Territory of Alaska just what any other kind of stock raising would mean. It can be brought to mean a great deal more to the Territory than it does now. I can suggest many points on which we are very much in need of accurate in
 formation. Many individuals have carried out experiments in a haphazard sort of way and re- nlained in doubt of their find-

erwise. Anywhere he wishes to settle.
 Let him start his clearing and clear such lands as he wants to use for his buildings, gardens and what not, whatever he needs. Tn most cases it will not be much. But let it be under stood that any timber land which he holds and is not ac- tually using for other purposes shall be under the jurisdiction of the Forest Department inso- far as the cutting of timber is concerned Let him have the revenue from this timoer to SuS- tain him while he gets his start.
 If you are afraid that a bunch of people will come here to take up land merely for the sake of selling it to pulp companies, eX- tend the period of residence be- fore patent.
 But even so I cannot see any great evil in the pulp companies owning the land if the timber cutting is supervised. Under the present policy of the Forest De- partment, they will have all of the privileges of owners without any of the responsibilities and the immense parcels of land al- lotted to them will be definite ly withdrawn from settlement, al least until the timber is cut.
 The people the pulp companies bring here to harvest the timber crop will never be more than a transient labor, like our present cannery help.
 On the other hand, if the land is in the hands of small land owners, these people will make headquarters Of the Alas ka towns, trade there, live there ard center their activities there.
 What if a portion of the land does eventually pass to the ownership of the large compan- ies? They won't be able to car ry it away They might even be willing, after the crop is cut, to sell some of it to settlers again.
 Personally, I am heart and soul for forestry. I have lived in Southeastern Alaska for twenty ?ears. There can be no question
The Alaskan., 1930-02-07

that timbering and timbergrow- ing is the destiny of 90 per cent of the land here. It would be, admit, detrimental to the best interests of the country to allow unrestricted cutting with no pro- vision for reforestation.
 But I can not see why that should mean that the only way that forestry could be practiced would be to allow large corpora tionS to hog our timber resourc- es without the people of Alaska benef1tting as it should.
 No, don't allow the door to be slammed in the face of the man or woman who wants to come here and build a home. Help them rather from our immense store of riches.
 Last but not least, remember that in the eyes of God, a land is not fulfilling it's destiny un- lesss His people are living con- tentedly upon it and I would venture to say that a settler and hls family toiling for his living from the land would carry more weight before His Tribunal than 3 20 million dollar pulp company

 Tn the second place, I fail to fsee why it is necessary to hold the timber land of Alaska in immense, tax exempt reserves.

Editor The Alaskan, Petersburg Alaska

Editor The Alaskan,
 Petersburg Alaska Dear Sir:
 I have a lot to say on very vital subject but can not seem tC get started.
 AS near as I can come to a real start is by quoting from an old and nearly forgotten document I do net doubt that most of you have read it. But have you studied?
 It says in part: we hold these truths to be self-evide11t, that ell men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Great or with certain inalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit ot Happiness.
 I could quote other extracts from the same source, all ot which would have a bearing on the subject, but read it yourself IL won't hurt you. There is one place where it speaks of land and another place where it speaks of a swarm of new off1c- CTS. But read it, study it. The comparison between the. con CitiOns which bred that docu- ment and the conditions under which we are trying to develop Alaska arc startling. Read it and realize the responsibility that you as American citizens carry on your shoulders.
 Living in a country under a form of government established by the authors of that docu- r,ent, designed to secure you your rights, it is up to you whether you continue to enjoy those rights or not.
 You as citizens of Alaska are living in a raw, unsettled and undeveloped country, the same as the authors of the document quoted. You are here on the grounds and are better qualified to know the needs of your hone country than any bureau head in Washington.

 Dear Sir:
 In the last issue of your papel under the heading Open For um,' MT. F. s. Hungerford sug. gastS that it is a shame that th'
 OX ranchers of this territor7 cannot be made to feel at home in their own houses. May I agre. with him and add my bit to thf discussion?
 Fur farming is an infant in. dustry that bids fair to becomt 9f enormous benefit to the Terri. tory of Alaska. The fox ranch. CT settles on the land, develop, Ii, improves it, makes it a home lie clears ground, plants gardens and fruit. He makes trails landings, docks, floats. He build. houses and outbuildings- al permanent improvements tC make that land productive which otherwise would be of nc value whatever, in fact many o1 the islands are not much more than rocks in the way of naviga- tion. His place becomes an emergency life saving and supply station for every wandering gas boat Wayfarer in his locality. He does not exploit any natural re- of the country even as the LOggers, miners or fishermen do; ne produces that wealth as a farmer produces beef and pota- toes, and every dollar of it is a foreign dollar brought to his nome town. He patronizes the Ocal merchants and machine shops and all that he makes 5oeS to build up the Territory. He spends for such purposes rom two to fifteen thousand dollars per easily five imes as much as the average lomesteader.
 In view of the number of peo- )le engaged and the amount of money invested it would seem hat such an industry should lave in fuller measure, the sup 'ort and encouragement of the ederal government and of the territory. The last Legislature made an appropriation for the mployment of a veterinary ex- 'ert to study fox diseases and and to advise the That plan has a very ] -ef1nite fault. In all respect to )r.

Ambos Nogoles' Population

Nogales, Arizona, has population OF 6OOl,ac-
cording to the new census figures.
That news has gone out to the world and the av-
erage outsider, not knowing that Nogales Arizona
and Nogales, Sonora, are in realty one community
with combined population of close to 25,OOO, i'm,
medately feels that this community has rather small
population.
For the information of our readers in many states
who have never been in Nogales we print the follow
ing -
Nogales Arizona including the census fl
cures estimated population of OUR suburbs and about
200 persons missed by the enumerators, has 6,|O1
people.
Nogales, Sonora-separated by only wire fence
from Nogaes Arizona has population OF l8,OOO ac'
cording to recent census.
Nogales, Arizona, and Nogales Sonora, are usu-
ally referred to as "Anlbos Nogales, which means
"Both Nogales". The two towns comprise one Of the
most prosperous districts in the West, each depend
ent upon the other.
Nogales, Arizona, is the shopping center for No
gales, Sonora, folks.
If Nogales, Arizona, ony depended upon 6,OO1
persons to do their trading here there would not be
today in this city, beautiful shops gaore-shops that
would be credit to city many times larger than No
gales Arizona Our business district would be about
one fifth it's present size.
Business establishments occupy total OF more
than 80 blocks in Nogales Arizona the business
of this city being almost as large that of Tucson
And Nogales Sonora too, has quite large business
district.
The trading area of Nogales, Arizona is not con-
fined solely to Nogales, Sonora Our trading ex
tends far down the great West Coast of Mexico, No
gales being the shopping center for thousands and
thousands of persons from the states OF Sonora and

When anyone brings up the subject that Nogales
only has COOL inhabitants, remember that this is mis-
leading in way, and that population in reality
