 anced, Says Chairman

LAUSANNE, Switzerland, Ju n e 16.-British Premier Ramsay Mac Donald today told the delegates of thirteen nations in a conference on separations and war debts that Europe cannot act alone but must have the help of the United States in solving the worlds economic troubles.

 No German Population
 Premier MacD expressed himself clearly in opposition to repudiation by Germany of war separations.
 The Premier further said:
 We are under the shadow of the most ominous economic crisis that ever afflicted the world in time of peace The whole world looks to us as it never looked to a conference before in these times. There is no Italy, no Germany, no Britain apart from the rest of the nations.
 All Nations in Misery

Fete Set for Next Sunday Has Been Postponed
 Until June 26

Postponement of the Elks An nual picnic until Sunday, June 26. was announced today by E. M. Goddard, Chairman of the Com mittee on Arrangements. It was originally scheduled to have been held next Sunday.
 Current weather conditions, 1t was said, led to the postpone ment. It has been found impos- sible to make any preparations on the grounds and it is hoped more favorable weather will be encountered later this month.
 Larsen Creek, just north of Douglas, has been considered for the picnic grounds. It was said today, however, that no final de- cision had been made on the site.

 T am advised by the Secretary of War that normally six Army of ficers are employed on the work of the Alaska Road Commission but that at present there are five actually on duty. He also states that there are 99 civilian employees. all listed as temporary.
 Expenditures ItemIzed
 "The actual expenditures for permanent employees in 1891, ac- cording to the Budget report, was $109, ,29o with an estimate of $110,- 700 and $111,540 for 1892 and 1883, respectively. The salaries and wages for temporary employees carried by the Budget report for 1881 was $817 ,463 with estimates for $762,- 270 and $600,505 for 1882 and 1853 respectively. Civilian employees oc- cupy positions of senior engineers, superintendents, assistant associate engineers, disbursing clerks, me- chanics, etc.
 If this activity is transferred to the Interior Department it is my intention to assign the admins tration to the Governor of Alaska who is at Juneau where the head quarters office of the Road Com mission is located. We would ex- pect to operate through so much of the present civilian organization as could be maintained under the prospective reduced appropriations relieving the Army officers now assigned.
 No New Positions
 This plan does not contemplate establishing new positions and it 
 would be expected that the total present outlay for salaries, includ ing the pay and allowances of the commissioned officers, would not be exceeded. No curtailment of the road, trail and bridge construc- ton program is contemplated, ex- cept such as may be necessitated by reduced appropriations. This transfer has not been urged as a matter of economy in road build ing but to make possible smaller deficit on the Alaska Railroad and in the interest of effective CO., ordination of related activities now handled by two departments. Nevertheless. there is no funda- ltion whatever for the assumption by citizens and organizations in Alaska, either that a change in the road-building program would result to the detriment of the Ter ritory, or that administration under this department would be more
