.FLORY RETURNS
 FROM INTERIOR
Delivers College Com mencement Address and
 Anchorage Memorial Talk

After six-weeks trip to South Central and Interior Alaska, Charles H. Flory, ex-officio Commissioner for Alaska for the United States Department of Agriculture, return ed to his home here yesterday on the steamer Aleutian. His trip was confined to the Alaska Railroad belt, with stop of few hours at Chugach National Forest head quarters at Cordova.
 While absent, MT. Flory deliv- cred the Memorial Day Address at Anchorage, and the Commencement Address at the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines on June 2. He stopped over at the Matanuska Agricultural Experiment Station to look over the work be- ing conducted there.
 About 12 new settlers have en- tered homesteads on agricultural lands in the Matanuska Valley and one in the Panama Valley as a re- suit of the colonization program of the Alaska Railroad in which the Department of Agriculture is cooperating, MT. Flory said. The plan, which has been somewhat misunderstood in the railroad belt. does not contemplate any wholesale settlement of agricultural lands along the route However, there is an opening for a limited number of bona fide farmers in that dis trict and it is hoped to colonize them to that extent.
 At present, the Territory is now purchasing annually from Wash ington and other Pacific Coast States about $5,0O0O0O worth of farm products. These could be largely grown at home. It is the hope of the railroad management to promote farms that will grow this produce.

 Secretary Davis came to this country from Wales in 1880-at the age of seven. With his par ents and five other children, the family settled in Sharon, Pa.

 The discovery was made through an effort to replenish the States diminishing supply of wild turkeys Several hundred domestic birds were driven far from civilization in the game preserves, but a large per centage of them promptly came back to the comforts of modern life.
 Officials are now experimenting with the eggs of wild fowls, from which they hope to raise a crop of turkeys that will return to their native haunts and provide game for sportsmen.

Revision of the antitrust laws to
permit collective curtailment in the
mining industry so as to adjust the
supply of minerals to the demand is
advocated by Robert E. Tally, presi-
dent of the American Mining Congress.

The major trouble with the mining
industry, with the exception of gold,
was held by the official to be under
consumption, with the ideal solution
being the adjustment of supply to de-

were held to exist for finding additional
uses for metals through metallurgical
research, as well as through an adver-
