SCHOOL SOLICITING
 MAINTENANCE FUNDS

The Laurinburg Normal and h. dustrial Institute at Laurinburg, North Carolina, where colored young men and women are trained, has been hit by a calamity and requests are being sent out for financial aid. One such request has been received in Juneau by Alfred J. Buckingham from E. M. McDuffie, Principal of the Institute.
 Tn the request for funds, Me- Duffie said the schools money was in two banks which closed their doors. The school went down in the crash.
 "The tragic situation is to see and hear 600 boys and girls cry- ing because they must be put out this school term. Only $7,000 is wanted to complete the years work" writes McDuffie.
 Prof. McDuffie says he has been connected with the school for c6 years, since the late Booker T.. Washington asked him to go to Laurinburg. He says the school has never had any scandal and has never been closed for debt.

DEFEAT TURNS
 INTO RIOT AS
 PLAY PROCEEDS
L o cal Elks Make 1t l2 Straight Games Over
 Ketchikan Bowlers

Juneau's defeat of Ketchikan in the Elks Inter- City bowling tour ney developed into a riot yester- day when the local Bills again swept the alleys for six straight games and increased it's lead for the series to 1,346 pins. The final match is slated to be bowled at 8 o'clock this evening.
 The local victory is the most one-sided in the history of the in- terlodge contests. In the four matches rolled to date, the First City pin busters have failed to win a single game.
 Kibitzers are Disgruntled
 The "Kibitzer Club" of the Ket- chikan lodge, disgruntled with the showing of their representatives here, today wired the local Elks as follows:
 Cancel all further games of con- test with present team and take up their return tickets. Ladies team coming by air route to finish. We still have some pride and hope to maintain it. If they have any mon- ey left also take that from them and enjoy yourselves.
 Undismayed by this unexpected demand, and hopeful that their lost form" will be rediscovered be- fore tonight's match, the First City squad was prepared to fight with it's collective back against the wall. The boys simply have been unable to hit their stride. But they hope to comeback tonight in sufficient force to prevent the riot from growing into debacle.
 Barragar led the scoring yester- day afternoon, rolling 243 for sim gle game and 597 for match hon. ors. Henning was second with a score of 591. Metcalf's 563 was third in the afternoon, but an identical score in the evening games gave him high match score. He rolled 2l5 for high game in the second match.
 Zurich, 544, Thibodeau, 525, and Kubley 516, were the only First City Bills to mark up 500 or bet ter in the first match. Zurich, 555, and Thibodeau, 533, were again the only ones ot make the charmed circle in the evening play.

BUSINESS IN STATES BETTER,
 MULLEN SAYS
Depression Not Felt in Al aska Like in Other
 Parts of Nation

Business conditions in the States are improving; the low point of the depression was reached late last year, and the curve is upward now. according to my observations and to the information I received before returning home said J. F. Mullen, vice-president of the B. M. Behrends Bank, who with Mrs. Mullen and their three children, came back Sunday from a soiourn since last July in Pacific Coast cities.
 T visited only on the Pacific Coast" continued MT. Mullen. Conditions there, I understand, are and have been better than ill the East and in the Middle West. The East, because of it's large and numerous ind u trial enterprises feels keenly the curtailment of their activities, resulting in extensive un- employment. Many parts of the Middle West suffered from the drought.
 Fare Better on Coast
 Industry and agriculture are faring better on the Coast than elsewhere. Business men in the Coast cities seem to be meeting the situation with no feelings of dis couragement. They look forward to continued improvement this year.
 "As a rule financial interests are sound. Banks have plenty of funds, and are able and willing to extend accommodations on safe security.
 At the worst of the depression, there was nothing in the nature of financial or a business panic.
 "Unquestionably, Alaska has ex- perienced less i'll effects from the general economic recession than any ether part of the United States.
 Conditions Better Here
 Conditions here and through cut the Territory are better than on the Pacific Coast which is the favored part of the States"
 MT. and Mrs. Mullen and their children left Juneau last July, in tending then to stay away few months. In September, Mrs. Mullen became ill She had to remain in a hospital in San Francisco two months. She is completely recovered now. The family during the sojourn in the States spent most of the time in California, but also visited in Seattle a brief while.

. FINISHES HEARING
Economists on Committee
Probing Charges to Make
Separate Reports.

After taking testimony from a score
or more financial experts and statisti-
clans, the committee of economists
appointed by the American Economic
Association, late yesterday concluded its
two-day investigation into charges
made against the Commerce Depart
ment by Dr. Ray o. Hall that vital
truths in his report on the balance of
international payments of the United
States for 1880 were censored.
Four of the five members of the COM
mittee planned last night to leave for
their homes at once. They are ProfS.

w. 1. King, New York University; w.
NJ. Patterson, University of Pennsyl-

turned over to Secretary OF Commerce

complainant commended that he placed
in the report that prohibition in this
country was stimulating a desire by
Americans to travel in Canada. 1t was
also reported interested in the deletion
of quotations from certain economic
writer's criticizing the American foreign
investment policy, and DR.. Halls own
opinion implying criticism of the Fed
eral Reserve policy.
With respect to the general deletion,
it is understood department officials
appearing before the committee took
the position that it is unreasonable for
any specialist to seek incorporation in
official publications of expressions of
personal opinion on such unrelated
matters as private banking and foreign
investment policy and criticism of other
