NATIONAL PARK NOT NEEDED.

Suggestions for national park in Southeast Alaska seem to have found favor in some quarters. Stewart Edward Whites proposal that an island in this part of the Territory be set aside peoples playground has been ndorsed by the Ketchkan Chamber of Commerce. While his specific sslec- ton of Chchagof of the most promising min ing sections in the country was not ratified by the business organization of the neighboring city still his general idea for the reservation of some one of the larger islands was approved. In common sense, why?
 Making a national park of area entirely closes it to agricultural and industrial development and establishes it as a sanctuary for wild life. In such places the government grants concessions for ho- tel and transportation facilities and extends camp ing privileges but it provides none of these ad- vantages itself At most, it constructs and main- tains needed roads and trails.
 With respect to Southeast Alaska, additional official action is necessary to preserve natural con- ditions More than 99 per cent of this northern area is included in the Tongass National Forest and Glacier Bay National Monument. Only tracts of a few square miles each around Metlakatla Ket- chikan Wrangel Petersburg, Juneau Douglas, skag- way sitka and Gustavus on Icy Strait not contained in the forest reservation which presses them closely on every side. Chichagof Island, for instance, is in the forest zone.
 Throughout all of Alaska, hunting regulations are sufficiently strict to insure the preservation of wild life but f change in them be, deemed advisable further to protect game animals it be effected without recourse to national park proclamation.
 In the reserved forest area, hotel and transporta tion concessions undoubtedly be obtained by re- sponsible person or company wanting them Loca- ton of dude ranches with accompanying pack and saddle horse diversions probably would be encour- aged by forest authorities Shelter cabins with food supplies are maintained and pack trains operated now by guide associations for big game hunters in various parts of the Territory.
 Roads and trails. serving both utility and pleas ure purposes penetrate sections of reserved areas Such work unquestionably would be extended to any places chosen for tourist resorts
 Except for comparatively few small areas all Southeast Alaska is embraced in some sort of federal reservation. No national park is needed to tighten the governments hold. Rather means should be taken to loosen it.

|FA NOUS CHIEF.
 ARMY ORDNANCE VISITS ALASKA
Maj. Gen. William Crozier, Retired, Pays Visit
 Here This AM.

Maj. Gen. William Crozier, U. s A.. Retired, veterans of two major wars and as many campaigns, ac- companied by Mrs. Crozier, is mak- ing his first Alaska visitation and was caller on Gov George A Parks today. He and Mrs. Croziei are travelling to Cordova on the Aleutian.
 They will go over the Copper River & Northwestern Railroad to Chitina and by automobile from there to Fairbanks. They will re- turn to the coast over the Alaska Railroad
 Gen. Crozier is recognized as one of the artillery experts of the world. For Is years. from 1901 to 1917 he was Chief of Ordnance of the United States Army A graduate of the national military academy in 1876. he was com missioned second lieutenant in that year and sent to the West where he saw service in the same year and the succeeding one in the Power River campaign against the Sioux Indians. He took part in the campaign against the Bannocks in 1878.
 Routine duty, including term as instructor in the military acad- emy claimed him for many years. He was in active service in the Spanish American War and served as a staff officer in the Philippine Insurrection in 1900
 Later in the same year he was chief ordnance officer in the Peking Relief Expedition. In 1901 he was called to Washington to serve as Chief of Ordnance and until De- cember 1917 held that position. Sometime in that period with Gen. Burlington he invented the diSap- bearing gun carriage that played large part in modernizing the country's artillery.
 From December, 1917 to June 1918 he was a member of the War Council, his duties taking him to France and Italy He was Com mander of the Northeastern De partment of the Army until De- cember, 1918, when he retired.
 Although 76 years old, Gen. Croz- fer is as erect as when he donned his single barred uniform as g "shavetail" With a military bear ing that is unmistakable he moves briskly. He and Mrs. Crozier are really enjoying their Alaska voyage They make their home in Wash ington, D. c.

You see, a couple of years before that, some bears started the trouble in New York Or maybe it was the bulls Or both GOT neitherD Anyhow, a few people lost money. And lot of people lost their They started spending less and less money-and more and people started spending long days looking for work. The depres- sion began to look like a permanent boarder.
 What happened? Well, the big, big majority Of people still had jobs. (You could tell that by the way you had to stand on street and got caught in traffic jams every morning and eyeningD Plenty of people still had money to spend. And, finally they started to spend it.

 That made it necessary for the factories to start running at full steam again. And the indus tries found it necessary to put employees on full time again. And these men got their plump pay envelopes every Saturday again. And everyone was too busy to talk about the depression.

GETTING ALONG WITH THE
 OPPOSITION.

Gov Joseph P. Ely of Massachusetts is one Democrat who is having easy going with a Repub- hcan Legislature e-much easier than Gov Wilbur L. Cross, the Democratic Executive of Connecticut, Gov Ely had difficulty in getting his program through the Massachusetts Legislature or his ap- pointments confirmed by the State Senate. A Con- nectcut Legislator who has been particularly active in obstructing the Democratic Governor of that State, scornfully declares that the Senators and Representatives of the old Bay State eating out of the Governors hands. He continued
 No wonder Massachusetts has two Demo-
 cratic Senators Democratic Governor and

 The New York Times thinks, however that the Massachusetts Republican Legislators are trying to prevent the State from becoming Democratic that they might follow the State leaders of their party into retirement The Times continues:

The barrier of the Gulf of Alaska is gradually being swept away by the inevitable tide of motive less humanity, and the old days when man could feel in the presence of every stranger when his property safe without lock as it would be in vault we must admit, though with reluct- anee gone.
 The time of Alaskan hospitality has gone, at least as far as Alaskans and the outsiders con- cerned. With the departure of those days, when civilization had come, but the parasites had not had time to grow from the riffraff of its seepage has gone a grand and notable past.
 The time has come when Alaskans, when Cor dovans, must be hard boiled" It would be well for city to gain reputation of being "in- hosptable" to an exent where its protection was concerned
 Vagabondage has passed the stage of happy harmlessness. We are seeing and more maraud- prowling into port. Petty thieves. rollers, and those who by strange misapprehension think that they pioneers, and that pioneers are Iruffians

SEATTLE RECALLS MAYOR EDWARDS

Probably there is no City in the United States that has a greater aptitude of making herself look silly to sane people than Seattle. She now has recalled Mayor Edwards because he removed an em- ployee of the Government of which he is the head and because he reappointed a Superintendent of the Municipal Railway who cutting down ex- penses so as to produce net income that would enable the bond holders to get interest that is due them. Once upon a time she recalled Hi Gill be- cause she did not like his conduct, and he came back and served two terms Then she elected a clown for Mayor, and then a woman. It would not be surprising at all if Mayor Edwards should come back within year two and be elected again by an overwhelming majority.
 By waiting eight months she could have changed Mayors without a costly special election.
 We'll if Seattle enjoys making holy show of herself we do not know that is any business of those who do not live there.

With the possible exception of unemployment and baseball the most expressing issue in this country today is taxation" comments Tacoma Ledger, Frank S. Baker, editor and publisher. The editorial continues
 everybody is having a terrible time paying them Every village, city County and State is having terrible time collecting them The Fed eral Government itself has it's tax troubles Every where new plans of taxation are discussed ln prl- vate and public new ways to raise revenue and new ways to distribute the burden
 Everybody wants tax reform Everybody wants fairer tax system.
