When Delegate Wickersham in
troduced his bill for the creation
of a Supreme Court for the Terri
tory of Alaska it provided for a
membership OF the four district
judges and presiding judge to
be appointed by the Attorney Cen
eral. Because of the expense of an
additional judge the Judiciary
Committee did not favor the bin.
As a consequence the Delegate has
prepared and introduced new
bill that provides for a membership
OF only the four district judges,
three of whom shall constitute
quorum for transacting the bust
ness of the Supreme Court. The
judge in the First division shall
be the presiding judge for the
first year, the other judges in the
order of their number of division
shall serve year as presiding
judge. None of the judges shall
receive extra compensation for
their services on the Supreme
Court. AS this bill carries no ex-
ira cost or appropriation it is ex-
pected to meet with favor by the
Department of Justice and the
Judiciary Committee. and thus
pass Congress.

William Macdonald, a building
contractor from st. Louis, is now
in Washington trying to get some
concession in freight rates on the
Alaska Railroad, through the Sec
rotary of the Interior. He secured
the contract for erecting the Fair
banks Federal Building, his bid
being $4,000, but now he is in
doubt as to whether he wants the
contract. In making his estimate
1t seems he was misinformed by
outside persons as to the freight
schedule on reinforcing steel ship
ments, which is much higher than
he figured on. The Delegate is as
sisting him in trying to have the
matter adjusted with the Railroad,
for if Macdonald does not go
ahead with the contract delay will
result because bids would have to

the distant future, which he ex-
pans would require only a low

other parts of the world, there

been expected, Tor unless the earth's
poles have wandered much farther
than has been determined, the
high latitude of Alaska would al

lands. Furthermore, for much of
Geologic time there have probably
been high mountain areas in Al
aska, and in these areas local
glaciers might have been fostered
even when glaciers could not exist
in the lowlands."

French descriptions were strong, in

in foreign bonds say that large part
of the current trading represents
switches from one issue to another
where there is an opportunity to i'm
prove both the character of the in

market is extremely thin, responding
abnormally to small bids or offers.
There is a steady absorption OF these
bonds for foreign account.
The strength in the United States
Government list which appeared on
wednesday was continued today, with
nearly all the active trading issues
higher. The best gain was in the 3ls
per cent Treasury loan. All the Treas
ury notes up to the May, 1888, ma
turity are selling at premiums ranging
from Ia to 3. point. Therefore they
give no net income to the purchaser
at current prices. The municipal mar

view to limiting wheat acreage for
two years reviewed considerable atten-

that cargo of Argentine wheat was

f1rming assertions that instead of ex-
porting wheat this year some Balkan
countries would have to import.
1t was pointed out that during the

CURB SHARES GAIN

Trading Volume Expands as

Special Dispatch to The Star.

opeclai Dlspatcn 10 Inc Stdr.
NEW YORK, October 27.-Strong
from the start. todays curb market
steadily pointed higher as the session
progressed. Trading was only slightly
more active than yesterday, but the
number OF issues appearing on the tape
increased.
The standard leaders, like Electric
Bond & Share, American Gas g. Elec-
trio, Standard Oil of Indiana, United
/ Light g. Power A, American Superpower
and Pennroad Corporation, led the up
swing. Cities Service was trifie lower.
Scattered reports of increased employ
ment, quickened movement of goods
and better sales helped offset such de-
pressing influences as crumbling grain
quotations and f1uctuating prices OF the
principal foreign exchanges. There
were numerous specific corporate re-
ports and dividend actions that were
favorable
Federated metals responded to the
announcement of terms by which 1t
will be acquired by American Smelling
&, Refining. Lehigh Coal g. Navigation
| declared the regular quarterly dividend,
as did Southern Pipe Line. Lehigh
Coal reported for the IL months enoed
September 80 earnings of SLIT share.
! Axton- Fisher Tobacco A again was firm
as further details came out about the
company's increased sales.
Gold stocks again were steady, with
| traders talking of giving this group a
whirl in view of their recent earning
reports. In sharp contrast were the
coppers. all of which were dull. as the
red metal was quite generally quoted at
5as cents. Between the actual small
world demand and preferential tariffs
there appears to be little prospect OF
putting copper metal to cents pound
before the year end for the purpose OF
bolstering inventory positions
Food shares firmed, notably Great
Atlantic & Pacific Tea common and
preferred. Meat packing shares and
restaurant chains inclined to heaviness
In the store group Walgreen was one OF
the more active issues on the upside.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, october 27.-Viewing
recent reports business men largely hold
that the worst of the depression has
passed, and number of business prog
nosticators are trying to determine
what industries will be first to show the
way to recovery.
The statistical staff of the Guaranty
Trust Co., in a special study of the Sc
quence of economic recovery, noted that
in 1924 foreign trade and construction
were the two basic industries first to
recover, while in 1921 the leadership
was taken by the cotton and automobile
industries.
A few basic conclusions were reached:
First, that the automobile industry,
at least in postwar recoveries. has been
consistently among the leaders, and,
second. that the steel ingot and pig iron
barometers have been among the last
to join the forward procession.
