GOVERNOR PARKS
 SEES BLUE RUIN
 LOWERING, ALASKA
REFUSES TO JOIN THE PROCES- SION FORMED BY PRESI-
 DENT ROOSEVELT

JUNEAU, March g, Sounding a pessimistic note wholly out of harmony with that of the national administration, Gov. George A. Parks in his message to the open ing session of the Legislature stressed the statement that the Territory was entering the most critical period in it's history, point ing to developments within the past few days as unusual and un- forseen changing of the economic situation as possibly having far reaching effect upon our indus tries and revenues. No one can an ticipate what may develop within the next few days
 In advocating retrenchment III the cost of Territorial government the Governor recommended the suspension of all bounties covering wolves, eagles, coyotes, hair seals trout destruction, aid to fairs, and subsidies.
 He advocated reduction Of road appropriations to S100,000, in or der to provide funds for schools, pensions, unemployment relief and destitution, and other social vel fare activities"
 He said it was impossible to cor- struct the new Pioneers Home as had been provided for. He acvlsed consolidation of relief and welfare work under the sole authority Cf the Governor. He advocated a change in the educational system to permit of the creation of in corporated school districts with limited school tax levy, and the reduction of teachers salaries eight and a third per cent and It per cent change in refunds; the change of the position of CommlS- sioner of Education from an cleo tive to an appointive office.
 Governor Parks declared that Territorial unemployment relief was dangerously near the dole, and recommended delegating authority to the Governor to CO., operate with municipalities in the work of relief, and furnishing not more than 50 per cent of the funds needed

FRANCE |S ALARMED
 THAT GERMANY MAY BE

PARIS, March g, Apprehension on the part of France that Adolph Hitler may announce a program for armament on a par with other nations will possibly be one of the principal topics for discussion be- tween Premier Ramsay MacDon- aid of England, English Foreign Secretary Sir John Simon and Pre- mier Deladier of France.
 It is understood France will see to prevent such a pronouncement by Hitler through concert action on the part of the big powers dir ected in the form of a pronounce ment against Germany.
 The suggestion of a dictatorship for Austria is gaining force in the increased sentiment for Hitler, pre- Saging early cementing of an Austrian German union, which is believed to be close at hand.

SCRIPT PLANS ARE ABANDONED. REGULAR
 CURRENCY ENLkRGED

WASHINGTON, D. C., March g. The Roosevelt administration has abandoned it's script plans. Instead it has decided to rely for addi- tional currency chiefly on regular elastic privileges of the Federal reserve system.
 These are far from being stretched to the limit and there is room for expansion to meet the current shortage Of cash.
 Behind the sudden decision to abandon script lie three major considerations:
 Local script would be of such a variety as to cause vast confusion in actual business transactions. It would amount to a form of print ing press money.
 Banks are still hoarding huge sums of cash or assets which may be converted into cash through the Federal reserve system. This apparently can be considered a rigid form of currency expansion.
 The best information is that the government now contemplates ad- ditional currency chiefly of the same kind hiterto issued by Fed eral reserve banks but without the words, redeemable in gold.

Natural gas storage in the

gas was transported from Turner
Valley field through a line buiIt
to supply the town OF Calgary

expected that the Represented
Bow Island field win supply
Calgary ana intermediate towns
with gas for many years after
the Turner Valley field is ex-
hausted. Rapid decline Of pres

the belief that Calgary win have
to look elsewhere for It's gas
