SILVER IN CHINA

SHANGHAI, China, Aug. s. N) The need for an international sll- yer conference, which he believed would be held after the present debt negotiations in Paris are coa- cluded, was stressed by Senator Key Pittman at the end of his visit to China.
 Pullman told gathering of Chinese financiers, industrlahsts, educators, journalists and officials that both China and India would benefit by a silver conference as the Hoover moratorium would en- able England to extend a morator- ium to India on the latter's debt to England, thus relieving India or the necessity of selling silver.

TIMBER IN CENTRAL ALASKA

The Department of Agriculture tells more about the timber around Seward and in central A. aska tributary to the Alaska Railroad with out let as Seward than the most optimistic of us had dared to believe.
 The information is contained in Technical Bulletin ..o 226 by L. J. Markwardt, engineer or the Forest Products Laboratory of the Forest Service which IS just recently off the press.
 The total amount of timber in the Chugach Forest Reserve, of which Seward is the geographic center, is given in the publication as 260000000 board feet suit able for the best grades of newsprnt pulp z
 But the biggest surprise Is the great amount or timber in the Interior of Alaska, in the valleys along the rvers lining the bases of mountains and covering ridges The total in those combined localities estimated by the Agriculture Department after care full surveys to be approximately 5OOOOOOOO cords 1t gives 600 board feet to the cord That makes the stu pendous grand total of 3000000O000O board feet in the valleys and along the mountain sides of Interior Alaska of quality suitable for lumber and newsprnt pulp
 The total of pulp timber in Southeastern Alaska in the TOngass Forest Reserve, is estimated by this bull letn at 73000000000 board feet of all varieties The timber resources of the valleys in central Alaska are therefore than four times larger than the timber resources of the great Tongass Reserve.
 Few in Alaska realize that vast forests cover the valleys of central Alaska far north as the Chandlar and the Porcupne north of the Yukon Rlver and north of the Arctic circle
 All the timber in those valleys can be 1afted down streams to the Susna the Panama and the Yukon rv- ers and brought out to Seward the Alaska rail road for manufacture into pulp and newsprnt paper at this ocean shipping port.
 Those resources are sufficient in the aggregate to manufacture 100000 tons of newsprnt every year for time indefinite, or more than 4000 tons per day.
 The different kinds of timber in the Interior of Alaska treated technically and scientifically by the bulletin including the spruce hemock, birch, balsam, cottonwood and aspen All of it is equal to the best of its kind anywhere, the authority of the experts of the Agriculture Department who tested the tmbers and gave the results of their abors in this valuable Bulletin No. 226. :"
 Some day, when the high officials of the govern men decide to develop the tributary to the Alaska Railroad to put policies into effect which will result in the development of those resources the Alaska Railroad will be the busiest and most profitable little system of transportation in the United States.
