DELINQUENT TAX
ESTIMATE HIGH
Will Reach 100000 in
State, Irwin Predicts.

Estimate that the total of delin-
ouent taxes in the state will be
$40 100000 by the end of this year
was made today by Will G.. Irwin,
Columbus, president Of the Indiana
Association for Tax Justice. Earlier
this year, he said, officials had es-
timated the total would be
1000, 000
There will be other losses in reve-
nue., Irwin declares, such as re-
duced sums from levies on gasoline
and from automobile license fees.
Decrease of Is per cent from auto
mobile licenses has been estimated
by state officials.
Twins figures are based on re-

DITTSBURGH, April 10. - The
Il question of the next great
invention somewhat suggests the
statement of the 1rishman that
he wished he knew where he was
going to die, because if he did he
would not go there. This is the
way it is with us. If we knew
what the next great invention was
going to be, We would start on it
right now.
Most anybody that you would
ask this question would say, "tele-
vision,' air conditioning" or some
other development that now of
fers immediate hope of such &C
complishment.
However, in addition to those,
one might look forward to bio
physical accomplishments in the
study of the human body and bet
ter control of diseases relating
thereto; control of insects by ra-
diations, or they might even think
of power transmission by radio
means, along with other possible
great inventions that will follow
the discovery of means for pro-
ducing and detecting ether waves
in the now unknown regions of
wave lengths.
In thinking over past inven-
tions, I can not escape the feel
ing that has so frequently come
to me, of how little we appreciated
the need for many of them until
after they were here, that is, the
world to us appeared just as COM
plete before as after these inven-
tions were made.

 was in Fairbanks during the
 years up to 1908 that Judge
 Wickersham was called upon Jc make important decisions in min
 ing cases; difficult decisions they
 some times were, too. Unques-

 disputes than any federal judge who has sat in the Territory. 1 Becomes Delegate
 The judgeship was succeeded

 The last contest was decided in MT. WickerSham's favor in 1920, only a few days before the two year term was to expire. George Grigsby, who lost to MT. Wick ersham in the 1920 election by 290 votes, had served the great CT part of the term but he was |unseated and Delegate Wicker sham was paid salary for the period. Then Dan Sutherland went to Congress, remaining there until his voluntary retire |nlent with the term starting last year.
 MT. Wickersham's terms i'll congress, his practice of law and his compilation of the Alaska hibliography have not prevented him from research in law. He has compiled and had published the Alaska Territory Law Reports, |" a work of seven volumes for which he received absolutely no remuneration. 1T did it." he eX- plained, because it was neces- sary that reports of Alaskan ter ritorial court decisions be made readily accessible for the guid- |ance of attorneys and judges alike.

DRIVING SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE

The new Secretary of Com |merce, Roy D. Chapin, has a particular interest to the people of Alaska because of his super vision of the fisheries of the Territory and of the States, and of which he says: Our BureaU U of Fisheries fosters and protects a natural resource which SUD- ports an industry that is the means of livelihood for half a
 million of our people," Over the radio the other evening, Secre- tary Chapin gave a very cheer tul epitome of improved tarde sentiment and predicted that With a distinct change in spirit i,l recent weeks, America is on it's way to win the fight for econ, onic revival" He added "There is no doubt that a new and ag- gressive mood is gripping the country; a mood more typical of American bouyancy and fighting spirit. The parrage of economic forces against us appears to be weakening" Secretary Chapin sees a basis for recovery in the driving spirit of the people,
 plus measures being invoked by the Reconstruction Finance Cor poratiOn. The Federal Reserve
 Board in credit expansion, and

 Predicting that the next six
 months will be momentous in the history of the United States, MT Chapin, pointed out that the

FUR SEAL CATCH

The Bureau of Fisheries in- Horned that on August 19 a shipment of 49,334 seal skins, taken from the Pribilof Islands this season, arrived in Seattle |aboard the U. s. s. Sirius, and were later shipped to St. Louis.
 There the skins will be tanned land dyed before they are sold at lauction for the account of the United States Government. This shipment is about 190 skins smaller than last seasons kill.
 The decrease was caused it is said, by unfavorable weather at
 the Pribilof Islands which pre- vented as many young males coming ashore as anticipated.
 The seal skins from the Pribilof
 Island herd represents about 80 per cent of the worlds supply,
 and the demand for these skins
 determines the price of seal skin
 coats and wraps which will be
 worn next season. The Pribilof
 Island seal herd is considered
 the most valuable in the world,
 and has been under the manage
 ment of the Bureau of Fisheries
 since 1910. When the Govern
 rlent first took charge of this herd it numbered about 125,000 animals and since that time it
 has been rebuilt to approximate ly 100000 animals, an increase
 of over a million in g years. In the same period, the Bureaus
 workers have taken about 500,-
 900 skins from surplus Swear old males.

A HOAX ON ALASKA

IA HOAX ON ALASKA
 A Washington Sunday News paper recently gave considerable space to an illustrated article entitled Where Bootleggers are hanged, shot or burned to death" The incidents set forth were from a book recently pub lished by Jen Welzl, entitled, Thirty Years in the Golden North" and aims to depict some stirring chapters on Arctic jus tlce as administered in Siberia principally, and northern Alas ka. The Newspaper states that the book seems destined to start a good deal of controversy Vil- halmur Stefansson, famous Arc tic explorer, has declared that it contains many false statements and asserts he believes it to be a hoax; other Arctic experts, however, have warmly defended it, and the publishers have stood by it's authenticity. The book will no doubt prove quite illuminat- ing to Judge Lester O. Gore, Dis trict Attorney LeRoy M. Sulli- van, U. s. Marshall Charles D. Jones, and other minions of the law in the Second Division.
 At one time, Welzl says, he served on a jury which tried an American blind tiger. It happen ed that two of the jurors voted against the death penalty, al though the mans guilt was ob- vious. When the head juryman announced the decision, he add led, "The two bad jurymen will immediately be burned alive, This was done, and the blind tiger was then shot to death. Brief though these trails are, they are usually dispensed with, Welzl says, when the prisoner las fired at his pursuers during the fight. In such cases the man i is simply lashed to his sledge, drenched with benzine and set : af1re as soon as he is overpow- cred, with no formality at all Now and then the Polar settlers will be warned, by friends in some such Northern city a.: 1 Nome, Alaska, that blind tiger :, or bandit is coming into thelr neighborhood. They will be un- able to proceed at once against the man because he has, as yet committed no crime; but they dc not care to wait until some , one has been robbed, poisoned or murdered before acting. Sc they send some one to the mar and warn him to leave the dis trict at once; and at the same time word is sent to trappers and EskimoS that any one who finds the man in the neighborhood "A hours after he has been warn Cd to leave may shoot him on sight. That" remarks Welzl practically amounts to a sen- Itence of death, because there are often terrific blizzards o. spells of frost which prevent the man from getting away any dis tance.
 Once Welzl says, he himself lad an unpleasant experience because he tried to do a kind ness to another Northern trad CT. This man passed by Welzl's place on his way to a distant trading post, and asked if he might leave a number of boxes Of merchandise with him until he returned. Welzl got curious
