Fakptna, Alaska. November Fl, 1881
JUNEAU REQUEST FOR SEAL
 FUNDS WITHOUT RESULT

There are no net profits derived . from the Alaska seal industry, and if there were the Territory would have no legitimate claim for any part of them. That is the assertion of the administration as voiced by k. F. Morgan Acting Secretary of the De- partment ef Commerce, in response to the Juneau Chamebr's resolution asking for 50 per cent of the annual net income from the sealing industry to be turned over to the Territory for the benefi of its schools.
 The Chambers letter. to President Hoover upon the subject was turned over to the Department. of Commerce for answer, and Mir. Morgan replied in part as follows
 "As bearing upon this matter you are advised that the net amount paid into the Treasury of the United States from this source in the last two. fiscal years was considerably less than, the. :. total of expenditures through the Bureas of Fisheries in the work of administering the ,Pribi- Iof Islands and thea. resources.
 ''In the fiscal year 1880, expendi-.
The Kusko times., 1931-11-21

lures for fur seal work were $349,- 268.4l, while the total of receipts covered into the treasury of the United States was S237,991. Thus, the excess, of expenditures over re- ceipts was 75,277.41. In the fiscal year 1881 expenditures were S266,- O19.25, and the net receipts for the treasury only s96,24S.65, which made the excess Of expenditures over re ceipts ia that fiscal year $169, ,770.60 ,
 However If the reverse were the case, and the Pribilof's seal resources were returning large dividends to the Federal treasury, Alaska would have no equity in it, Acting ?. Secretary Morgan contends, saying:
 After careful consideration of the foregoing and regardless of any other factors that may be involved, the con- ciusion has been reached that, as all expenses of administration of the Pribilof Islands and of the protection of their resources are borne by the Federal Government, no sound req sons appear to exist as to why any funds derived fro mthis source should be made available to the Territorial Government of Alaska"
 However, in a letter received by the Chamber, Delegate Wickersham said he had received the seal resolu- tion, which he approved heartily and assured the Chamber that he would use every effort to bring about the desired allocation of funds.

\ An experiment. with wireless teIe-- phony which, if successful, is expect ed to solve most of Alaska's com- municatiens problems. has heenl launched with the installation at. Marshall of the first radio telephone in the Territory. This station has. just been put into operation, and is communicating successfully with the Signal Corps regular radio station at Bethel, twas recently announced by Major Malcolm Elliott, president of the Alaska Road Commission, which. in cooperation with. the Signal Corps,. has installed the Marshall station. The Bethel connection is planned to, be used only until the Signal Corps completes the insulation of a second radio telephone set at St. Michael. and after that the Bethel link will be auxiliary for. use in emergencies,
 such as Interruption in the St. Mi chael circuit. The wireless telephone experiment. was authorized by the Territorial Legislature last spring. It made funds available for installing stations at Marshall and St. Michael, for expenditure by the, Road Com mission, which turned. the technical work over to the Signal Corps. The initial. success was pronounced very gratifying by both Governor Parks and Major Elliott. Owing to- tine comparatively. small expense. of inr stallation and, operation, it, is believed. that, shoul dhe system continue to function satisfactorily, other plants will be. installed in the future in iso-. loted communities until the entire Territory is linke. dinto a single com- smunication system having connec tions with the Signal Corps service.

HENRY FORD LOSES MUFFI, FER
 (Stroller's Weekly.).

And now comes Henry Ford, with i his throttle wide open and his muf- fer gone peluk. In common with all other self-made men, Henry is prolix with advice but short on action. He has carefully studied the present eco- homie crisis and issued an edict that no man can work for Henry Ford who does not own, maintain, control and otherwise conduct a garden. He believes that any man smart enough to swing the peeduckle onto the main shaft should Besable to work ih a garden after his relaxation in the factory
 Too many city men believe that a garden is the salvation of mankind; the ultima, thule af making q Iiveli- hood. With turnip greens selling at 10 cents a peck and spuds fairly Jumping out of the ground at the low price of 80 cents a sack, the man who attempted to follow Henry Ford's long, long trail would find himself swamped before he got to the first radish. It would take county larger than Wayne, in which county Detroit is located, to accom- modate the thousands of workers Henry employs, even if allotted a playboy plot, say 50x1O0 feet.
 Farmers in Michigan can find no sale for their produce, allowing it to rot in the ground, yet Henry Ford lifts Up his elongated radiator hood straightway places his finger upon the economic trouble, just like that. Raise q garden; raise your own liy- Ing; raise hell; raise anything. just so one can put in his rest period in cutivating garden and watching it grow.
