ALASKA INTERESTS AT
 THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
r.tlnaed from Page 1.)

t.rinQaO rom rage 1.}
 there nas been great disappoint- s...nt m Alaska over the fact that the budget did not contain an appropria- tion for the continuance of the agri- cultural experiment stations in Alas La. When the agriculture bill was before a subcommittee of the appro- priations committee, Delegate Wick ersham made plea to the small com- mittee to include $35,O00 for the maintenance of the Matanuska ex- perimental station, and this was rather looked upon with favor by the members of the committee. But the effort went for naught when the chairman of the appropriations com mittee made a request of the sub- committee that no item be included in the general bill that was not rec commended by the budget, and that no increase be made in the bill over it's budget figures. As consequence the bill was reported to the House with out any mention of the $35,OO0 for Alaska. When it was under consid- eration in the House Delegate Wick ersham offered an amendment to in- clude the sum of $35,000 for the Mat anuska station, but it wa sdefetead. In making his plea for the amend ment the Delegate ended with these words: q beg the House not to waste this station. Do not destroy it. It IS the last thing that we have in the Territory of Alaska in the way of an agricultural experiment station. It IS not a saving to strike out the S35,OO0 appropriation, but it san economy to insert it. If you take it out youl will have to go back there in five or ten years and re-establish it, and thus lose your present investment and the sums necessary to rebuild it. To de- stroy it is waste and not economy" The amendment was urged in vigor- ous terms by Representatives La Guardia, Colton, Williamson. Sim mons, Burtness, Leavitt and Carter. It was opposed by Representative Stafford, of Wisconsin, and by Repre- sentative Buchanan, of the subcom- mittee, who, however, fairly set forth both sides of the controversy.
 Since the new winter mai contracts have gone into effect complaints have come to Delegate Wickersham from various sections of Alaska that the service is not so good as formerly and that the residents of small communi- ties are not being satisfactorily served. These various complaints are being investigated by the postoffice officials, and with reference to the Nenana, Panama and Ruby service Assistant Postmaster General Glover states: Our representative who in- vestigated the complaint states that local service to the intermediate points along the routes was provided by dog or. horse teams, which, with the through trips made by aircraft,

This action was in compliance with the requests of a large number of commercial organ nations and individuals for this pro- gressive method of transportation. However, it is apparent there is a small element residing along the routes opposed to service by aircraft and desire continuance of dog teams in order to keep the trails open.

COTTON REACTS
To WEATHER
REPORT

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 IN.S0.
After registering gains Of about
so cents a bale in early dealings,
cotton futures turned lower on
the weekly Government weather
report.
The report pointed out that
there was very little rain in the
Western cotton belt and picking
and ginning made rapid ad-
vanceS. In the East, fair weather
during the first half Of the week
was favorable.
Trading in the cotton ring was
moderately active. The trade
was a good buyer during the
morning as were Liverpool and
commission houses. Wall Street
made small purchases.
Brokers with japanese connec.
tlonS were the chief sellers. Wire
firms and local professionals also
sold.
Noon quotations were up / to
3 points, with December UP 3 at
$3.50, January up at $6.35,
March up at $6.41, May up /
at $6.53, and July up 2 at $6.62.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 GNS0.
Continued demand for United

again the feature of a generally
1lrm bond market session today.

nevertheless, there was a strong

Strength, Says Expert

of stock and has been trying TO
cover without much success for
several days. 1t was they, the
story goes, who sold down the
tobaccoS in the hope this would
bring general selling into the
market.
Decline in sales recently, &C.
cording to reports, was behind
the selling OF the tobacco stocks,
but the rumor that prices would
be cut is an old story now.
Further reports are around Ct
a big crowd in central and Lack
awanna. They were planning to
do things yesterday when the
market went against them.
+ So far September rail reports
are fulfilling predictions they
would make good reading.
Nickel to Tilt Output
The word from Canada is that
International Nickel is planning
to step up operations about the
first of November. The Company
is understood to have a lot Of
metal ahead, aided by the British
copper tariff. Interests close to
the copperS, however, are far from
enthusiastic about the near term
prospects.
Those in the know are confident
Drug will pay the regular dividend
at the meeting early in November.
Some short selling has been noted
in the stock recen:cy following
widespread rumors the rate would
be cut.
General Motors, too, it is said,
is quite likely to maintain the 81
rate at the forthcoming meeting.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10 Q.N.SJ.
The market showed itself in
herently strong when the to-
baccoS were sold down yesterday.
Normally this would induce
considerable liquidation through
out the list. The best evidence
that none of this occurred was
the way stocks came back at the
close.
This further confirms the
belief that there is little if any
overhanging stock for sale unless
some unexpected piece of bad
news breaks.
TiP Hits Westinghouse
There was a big tip around to
sell Westinghouse, with rumorS
that the third quarter loss would
be enormous. There is enough
in the earnings statement, how
ever, to offset the fact that
Westinghouse lost money in the
last three months.
One leading floor trader who
is partial to the short side is
understood to have dropped
about $4,000 in 20 minutes
yesterday.
This said he sold blocks of
steel. telephone. and United Air
craft when the market began
slipping. 1t wsS his covering at
a loss that accounted for a good
deal of the strength at the close.
