Action Is Pledged

"Our legislature in 1929 very wise
ly changed the statute of limitations
on banking law violations from two
years to five years, so that means
the state can indict any time within
five years." Wilson said.
Evidence upon which indict-
ments rest in bank case largely is
documentary. Receivers appointed
by courts have full custody of all
the banks documents and records.
Receivers have been asked to
watch for and make note of any
facts that seem to be violations of
criminals laws, so that these can
be brought to the attention of the
prosecutor.
when the audits finally are COM
pleted and receivers and assistants
have learned all that is possible re-
garding each institution, they will
be summoned before the grand jury.
Evidence of criminal offenses
will bring every effort by the prose-
cutor's Office to obtain indictments
and convictions"

JURY TO SIFT
OPERATION OF
CLOSED BANKS
Prosecutor Pledges Action
to Determine If Acts
Were Criminal.
WILL CALL RECEIVERS
Wilson Condemns Law That
Fails to Give Protection
to DepOSitOrS.

Investigation by the Marion coun-
ty grand jury, to determine if there
were criminal acts in operation of
banks now closed. was promised to-
day by Prosecutor Herbert E. Will
son.
Receivers Of the defunct banks
and their assistants will be called
before the grand jury, to give any
testimony they may have obtained
concerning illegal transactions
which may have aided in bringing
about failure of the institutions,
Wilson said.
The prosecutor condemned as
''woefully inadequate and weak" the
statutes covering operations Of
banks known by their officers to be
insolvent.
Although bankers of the state
constantly are seeking enactment
of stronger laws against robbery and
burglary" he declared, they neglect
looting from within.
Deposition Is Unprotected
THE ordinary depositor practi-
cally is without protection under
the present statutes"
Wilson cited as a sad commen-
tary" on present banking laws the
fact that bank president and di-
rectors can not be indicted for re-
ceiving deposits in an institution
known to be insolvent.
Instead" he pointed out, 1--WE
must take criminal action against
the teller, or person actually receiv-
ing the deposit. y
Wilson's statement comes on the
heels of a visit to his Office by men,
bers of a committee elected by de-
positors of the State Savings and
Trust Company. This committee
laid before the prosecutor informa-
ton which it has received.
Against Rush Action
MANY persons have been to see
me regarding the indictment of Off
GERS of closed banks" said Wilson.
THE prosecutors Office is waiting
to review all facts concerning the
bank failures before taking decisive
action"
The prosecutor stated that it is
of no advantage to the state to try
to hurry indictments, unless it has
full evidence necessary to bring
about convictions.
Most of the successful federal
Investigations of bank failures have
proved that real criminal facts upon
which successful indictments have
been based have not been brought
to light until two or three years
after the criminal acts occurred, -
asserted Wilson.
He expressed his opinion that the
Indiana Bankers Association and
nonassociated banks should devote
more attention to lobbying in the
state legislature for laws that would
make it possible to indict bank Of
ficials for Encouragement and bad
banking practices.

GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF
 FISHERIES.

Intermittently there is broadcast criticisms of the Bureau of Fisheries for alleged favoritism or other abuse" of public trust in connection with it's administration of the Alaska fisheries At times we have had the administration of the salmon fish cries by the Province of British Columbia held up an example of how own should be handled.
 commonplace of the Provincial system is presented in a late issue of the Prince Rupert News which shows strikingly the difference in the Canadian and American methods. The Northern British Columbia Salmon Fshermens Association, 2 cooperative organization composed mainly of fisher men applied to the Commissioner of Fisheries for a provincial license to process samon-hat is to can, mild cure or otherwise manufacture the raw fish into finished product.
 The response of the Commissioner is enlightening. It said in part: You are aware the policy of this Government is not to increase the number of can nery licenses until the conditions of the industry warrant it. Would not be possible for you and your associates to make arrangements with one of these (already lcensed) plants in the northern district whereby you would be entitled to obtain license that plant already in existence is en- titled to?"
 In other words the British Columbia Government is empowered to and does restrict the operation Of canneries It requires each canning or process ing plant first procure license before it begins operations. It limits the number of plants that may operate in any district and regardless of who may apply after that maximum has been reached, the Government will not issue additional licenses nor permit additional operations
 How long would Alaska fishermen remain silent under such a system? The cry of monopoly so often hurled under the present system in vogue here, would multiply many times and our fishing population rise almost en masse against the Bureau of Fisheries.

More Private Flying.
(New York Times)

(New York Times)
 There are indications that 1881 will see stimuli applied to private flying from several directions. In dividual use Of airplanes is style of aviation in which we in the United States have been passed by citizens of other countries notably Great Britain France and Canada Despite remarkable example of long g-distance flights like that of the Vicomte de Sibour and his wife in a light plane and that of Baron Koeng Warthausen in still smaller machine travel with ones individual wings has not been common in this country. The manufacturing section of the aircraft industry feels that this has been due in large part to the lack of airworthy and dependable light planes at reasonable prices It has set about the task of altering this situation. Several light arpanes and powered glid- available in the $500 price class. I'm portant manufacturing interests are reported to be at work on other models One flying boat using an ordinary outboard motor has been test-fown with success. light plane builder has sold to dealers two hundred of his little craft in month and expects to make at least five hundred this year Small aircraft motors, on which light plane progress depends, show marked improvement. There is as yet indication in this country, however, of an interesting expedient to spread the growth of private flying which has developed in connection with the flying movement in England. This is the leasing of planes to flying clubs, that more people have opportunity to learn the art of flight than if the capital outlay required for the purchase of plane two were necessary.
 It is perhaps good thing that private flying has not developed too rapidly in America A mush- growth might easily have brought so many crashes that the whole movement would have been retarded But that the autogro is available and inexpensive powered giders and light planes have given hatisfactory performances coupled with very low landing and stalling speeds the 15,000 licensed pilots may well be expanded to a much larger number. An interesting indication of the public state of mind was the showing in a Broad way motion picture theatre the other day ol the first of a series of short releases which will give a complete course in flying through the medium of the screen

A FINE RECORD.

The record of progress made by the public schools of this city in the and one-haf years they were under the control of w. K Keller as Superintendent, which was summarized recently by Director M. L. Merritt of the local School Board. is a notable one Tn that period the value of the physical plant has more than doubled The enrol ment has increased 100 per cent The teaching staff has been augmented by one-third. The scholastic standards have been raised. It was not without justifiable pride that Mir. Merritt charac- terized the local schools as the best in the Ter ritory.
 Of course others beside Superintendent Keller had part in this development. He had the support of the town generally, and of the several School Boards under which he served. But his was the particular responsibility for the manner in which the school organization functioned and the results it obtained. The unusual progress experienced is the best proof that can be offered that he fully lived up to that responsibility Shortly he will take his place at the head of the Territorial school system Tn that wider field he will find oppor- tunities to exercise the talents which he displayed in upbuilding the Juneau schools. And like the School Board we wish for him even greater measure of success than that which attended his loco administration, signal as that was.

the screen.


 As reported by our Vienna correspondent, at- tempt will be made the end of this month to fire rocket from the top of of the Italian Alps in the hope that it will bear barometers and other recording instruments to a greater heighth than has ever been reached before and thereby increase our information about the temperature and pres- sure in the regions far above heads But this seems a relatively unromantic for rockets; in recent years the usual story has been that the inventor was about to set off for the moon in one at least to show that his projectile could reach that orb without the added burden of a passenger Someone in the neighborhood of Berlin has been preparing to shoot the moon for year or two now, and one of the rocketeers has gone so far as to invite prospective passengers to put their names down for trial trip The mere collection of sta tstics relating to air pressure at ten or fifteen miles high seems very modest ambition in comparison with personally conducted lunar tours. The point that has always seemed obscure about the larger adventure is how the voyagers were to get over the difficulty of the return journey; supposng they managed to shoot the moon how would they ar range to shoot back to earth again? According to French expert who has just been addressing an American Inter- planetary Society" in New York, this difficulty will be surmounted by making the whole journey a nonstop Within the next twenty five years he thinks rocket will be invented that will go right round the moon and return like a boomerang, taking two days to get there and two to come back At that rate it will presumably take about ten minutes to rush round the moon itself-and whether it is worth while going so far in order to see so little is a point which might well receive careful consideration before the ad- venturers set forth. In any event the experiment. CTS would do well to ascertain what happens to the rocket which is about to be launched dis creetly from the Italian Alps. If that makes any sort of a hole when it returns to earth it can only be assumed that the reappearance of the lunar express will make a much larger one

HIGHWAY PROJECT NOW A REALITY.

The Pacific-Yukon Highway project has passed the movement stage and has emerged into thu realm of reality, Ernest Walker Sawyer American member of the International Commission, recent, told the United States Daily. In article appear ing in that Washington newspaper short tim ago, he summarized the progress already made a follows:
 Three major steps have been taken: The Pacific Yukon Highway idea crystallized; law passed by the United States Government, thereby giving the project in- ternational recognition; and the preliminary survey of 800 miles of a proposed location is an accomplished fact
 The road is both practicable and econ- omically feasible The important points in the foreground that the route is deinonstraby possible, and the deter imitation to find a method of financing the project.
 It is too early to predict what plans will be suggested or ultimately agreed upon, How ever the construction is warranted by the country it passes through The rich Cas- siar and Stikine are alone sufficient to justify the construction since these sections are undoubtedly the most heavily mineral ized of any sections of British Columbia while the beauties of the Atln known throughout the world.
