WILL BUILD BANDED
 MT,TRA|L THIS YEAR

Construction of a trail from
 the west fork of Texas Creek to the Banded Mountain sect lion along the southerly rim of Chickamin Glacier is included among three new trail con- struction projects authorized for the present year in the Ton
 gass National Forest district by the U. S. Forest Service, ac- cording to a recent announce ment by Robt. A. Zeller, For- est Supervisor.
 The local project will be about three and one-half miles in length and will extend southerly and westerly from the head of the west fork, of Texas Creek and across the Through Glacier to the north erly slopes of Banded Mount ain. The trail will probably be located to connect up with the projected government high way to the head of the west fork, now under construction by the Bureau of Public Roads, and will provide easy access to the Banded Mountain district, where important mineral dis coveries have been made dur ing the past two years.

MUST HAVE LICENSE
 TO KILL BLACK BEARS

With the reappearance of the numerous black bears in this To- cality, it appears desirable to call attention to the provisions of the Alaska Game Commiss- ion regulations providing that no resident of Alaska, except ing native Indians or Eskimos who have not severed their tribal relations or exercised the light of franchise, may legally kill black bears without first obtaining a trapping license.
 Among changes in the Game Commission regulations which will become effective July l, next, is the removal of the close season on black bears throughout Alaska. This means that after that date persons holding the necessary license may kill black bears at any time of the year throughout the Territory.
 The new regulations also pro- hibit the trapping of wolves and coyotes during the close season on fur bearers, except by qualified persons holding permits authorizing such trap ping.

HIGHWAY BILL NOW
 UP 10 PRESIDENT

The House Bill authorizing the president to appoint com- mission to cooperate with Can ada in the construction of a highway from the Pacific northwest to Fairbanks, Alas ka, has'been passed by the Sen ate and sent to president Hoov- CT, according to Washington, D. C., press reports.
 The measure provides for the appointment of three commis- Jioners to act with a similar Canadian commission in invest igating the feasibility of the proposed International High way and appropriates funds for their expenses. With the final ratification of the bill by president Hoover, further de- velopment of the plan will probably await action by the Canadians, although an aerial survey of the proposed route by U. s, Navy planes is sched- uled in June.

Tenn Dcdd Loses Foot

M. T. Dodd, former local resi- dent, suffered the loss of one foot as a result of diabetic gangrene of the toes shortly af- ter his arrival in San Francisco early this month, according to letter from MT. Dodd re- ceived by James F. Mcdonald, proprietor of the Silver Grill.
 MT. Dodd said the limb was amputated between the foot and knee, the operation being necessary to preserve his life.
 Although coming in the ad- vanced years of his life, the re- grettable misfortune apparent ly has not quenched his char acteristic optimism, as the let ter is distinctly cheerful in tone and refers to his unfor- tunate condition in the words: "guess I will have to bear it and grin, and get over it as soon as I can"

As a cit izen he has at all times taken a prominent part,in civic affairs and has been one of the lead CTS in all matters pertaining to the communal welfare and progress. A cultured gentle man, a fine citizen, a splendid official, his departure from our midst is deeply regretted by a host of friends on both sides of the international boundary line. It need scarcely be re- marked that the good wishes of the entire community will go with him in his new sphere of service.

FIGHT FOR SILVER
 TARIFF ID CONTINUE

Although the tariff amend ment calling for a 30-cent duty on silver was rejected by the house, it still has a chance, ac- cording to Senator Key Pitt mann, author of the bill, who is urging continued support from mining men.
 Press reports say the proposal was defeated in the house by a vote of 200 to 72 while the lower house was driving to- ward a vote on the controver- sial sugar tariff.
 The most determined fight against the amendment in the house came from New Eng land states, based on the pro- test of the silver manufactur- CTS that the bill provided no compensatory duty on manu- factured silver products. Many who spoke against the amend ment said they would not ob- ject to it if the bill is further amended to include a raise in the duty on silver manufacture.
 In a communication to north west mining men, Senator Pitt man declared that the house action does not settle the quest ion at all. The senate passed the amendment by a greater majority than the house de- feated it, he said, and the mat ter is still in conference unless the senate weakens.

RECOMMENDS MILL
 FOR B, |. SILVER

That developed ore bodies in the E. c. Silver property could reasonably be expected to pro- due between 6 million and 10 million dollars worth of around $15 ore and that the property has now reached a stage of de- velopment where the construct ion of a mill to treat 100 tons a day to begin with is warrant ed, were the outstanding dec larations in the report of c. A. Banks, consulting engineer of the Selukwe Gold Mining and Finance Company, at the annu- al meeting of the company in London last month, according to the Financial Times, noted British financial journal.
 MT. Banks, as reported by the Times, said that while they had not found any of the rich ore which the Premier found in it's early history they had neV- ertheless found seven or C shoots to date, and, no doubt, others would be located as time went on.
 Four of these shoots had been exposed on the No. 6 level by tunnelling during the past year, MT. Banks said. The best ore body to date showed 120 feet long and 10 feet wide ill the drift, and an average value of S22 per ton. This shoot would probably be found on mining to contain several million dollars. While they could not talk in terms of pos tive blocked out tonnage, Ii was reasonable to expect that the various ore bodies found would produce between six and ten million dollars of around S15 ore. Also other re bodies would no doubt be found.
 Development, he said, had n3w reached the stage when the property was warranted in Icing equipped with mill to treat 100 tons a day to begin with, and this to be increased to 250 tons as the ore bodie, were put into shape fer min ing.
 The alternative to equipping the property with a mill would be some satisfactory arrange ment with the Premier Comp any.
 The Times states that the re- port was adopted without dis cussion.
