the state banking department, and
no complaint was made concerning
its affairs, he declared.
Statement of Miller regarding the
condition of his bank is as follows:
Protected Depositors
THE city Trust Company closed
its doors to afford the greatest pos
sible protection to depositors and
existing creditors. Our board of di-
rectors decided that owing to our
inability to secure the necessary
credit to absolutely insure. an
orderly liquidation of frozen assets,
we should not go further into
temporary credit accommodations.
1T was the purpose of the board
to keep our unpledged assets free,
to be ultimately liquidated for the
benefit of the depositors rather than
tie up additional assets by pledge,
thus making the holder of such
pledged assets preferred creditors.
Credit Refused
1T is my opinion if we had Sc
cured the credit we believed we were

CnNCE childhood Akhamouk had been taught
to hate the Arabs, the last Of the great
invaders and to look upon them rs an inferior
race. The Tuareg has always defeated the
Arab in battle. On any fair field one Tuareg
thinks he is worth half dozen Arabs.
The present enemy Of the Tuareg are the
French. but the old King hid his feelings from
me regarding his opinion of their domination.
The high position held by women is one Of
the features Of Tuareg life. This custom Of
holding the woman supreme must go as far
back as the time Of Queen Tin Hinan and
In some measure accounts for the endurance
Of the legends concerning her.
From the Tuareg have learned that Queen
Tin Hinan lived at the time when the Tuareg
Empire reached from the Atlantic to the Nile.
It would seem that the Tuareg, or Berber, came
from the north and may have been driven
south by the Carthaginians and Romans. BY
q strange discovery made several weeks after
our return from the expedition to Queen Tin
Hinans tomb, we definitely placed the date
Of her reign. While cleaning up the many
articles Of the treasure we found In a sculp.
tured wooden bowl four gold coins bearing the
efhgy of the Emperor Constantine. These
coins had been buried with her

less than the accuracy Of dates with which
we are so familiar In our everyday Life. After
all. our purpose was not to discover the birth
day of Queen Tin Hinan, but to separate her
from the maze of past centuries and in 50
doing find her influence upon the develop

Of her people.

Included in the duties Of the rev position of Auditor, created hy the Legislature during the closing hours of the last session of the Legislature, is the follow ing function:
 "The Auditor shall audit and allow ALL CLAIMS or demands which are just and true and a legal charge against the Terri tory and for the payment of which appropriation has been made by the Legislature"
 In compliance with the above requirement., Auditor Cash Cole is carrying out strictly the pro- viso referred to, with one not able exception. Attorney Gen. eral Rustgard has advised him that the duty prescribed by the Legislature does not apply to the Territorial appropriation for the Alaska College and School of Mines. The sum involved by the last appropriation is $105,000.
 The Attorney General has de- cided that this sum can be ex- pended by the Board of Trustees of the College without any refer cnce to the Auditor, and that the appropriation must be paid over by the Territorial Treasur- <r to the Treasurer of the Col- iege, on demand.
 As a result of this opinion, the College is not required to make an accounting to any Territorial official for the funds or the pur- poses for which they were ap- propriated. And it seems that when Dr. Charles E. Bunnell, president of the College asks for rayment of any account, it is promptly paid, and no questions asked.

THE ALASKA FISHERMAN

DOIClO1l O1 HIS C11llC CO 1OUUy111 before the Territorial Legisla- ture and Congress at Washing ton, the question is being raised whether the payment for this service can legitimately be talk en from the Territorial appro- rriation.
 Various members of the Leg iclature maintain that the ap- propriation was made for edu- c2tional purposes-and not for lobbying. The Territory has Delegate to Congress who is sup posed to look after appropria- tions and grants at Washington. And of the $5O,O0O annually re- ccived from the Federal govern ment, there is no report requir- ed. It is part of the original grant. But whenever there is a bill to get additional land, Pres ident Bunnell makes this the oc- casion to enjoy a vacation OUT- SIDE for two or three months. And it is becoming an annual affair, with a biennium visit to Juneau, to attend sessions of the Legislature.
 And for all of this, the Terri tory pays Dr. Bunnell was ab- sent at Washington from Mo- vember IS, 1927 to February IA, 1928, at a cost of $712 for travel and subsistence expense. He again started East later in 1928 and was absent from December II, 1928 to February 21, 1929, at a cost of $901. And for the five months absent he was receiving from the Territory a salary of $500 per month, or $2,5O0. With the $1 500 for expenses his trips cost the Territory $4,100.
 Again in December 1929, the Doctor started on his annual pilgrimage, returning the early part of March. The cost will presumably be we'll nigh to $2,- 900. And the report is that af- ter Dr.. Bunnell gives the Col-
