INTERNATIONAL
NEWS REVIEW
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

On Monday next, October 16, the in
ternational conference for the limita-
tion and reduction of ornaments is
scheduled to meet at Geneva again,
ending recess of about four months
1t is necessary to say, lis sched-
uled to meet" for there is at the
moment of writing no certainty that
the conference work will be resumed
on the day mentioned; in fact, some
pretty strong hints have been put out
to the effect that it would be far
better for everybody concerned to
postpone the gathering until more
favorable time.
Events of the last few weeks have
made the prospects of actual disarm-
ament pretty dismal; Paris dispatch
bluntly says that disarmament is
dead" and a cable from London eX-
claims that "the disarmament con-
ference is nearly stalled again-even
before it starts"
Leagues Work.
Disarmament is the central topic
of the discussions of the League OF
Nations fourteenth annual general as
sembly; it is the all-absorbing subject
of European talk, and still no progress
is made.
To the contrary in spite of long
series of socalled preparatory dis
armament conferences extending over
a period of years; in spite of the
general Geneva conference summoned
in February, 1882, to promote dis
armament, there is today more talk OF
increased ornaments than at any
other time since the end of the World
war.

SERVES TWO PURPOSES.

The present regulation of the United States Bureau of Fisheries that limits to 50 feet in length seine boats in Alaska waters engaged in commercial fishing for salmon serves two important purposes. The first and the one that was largely in mind when the regulation was made effective several years ago, is it's effect upon conservation By that order, the Bureau Topped off large amount oI lnoveable gear that was difficult to regulate The large seine boats from the Southern Pacific ports that annually came to these waters took a great quantity of salmon. When the 5o-foot limitation put on, all of them automatically excluded from fishing in local areas
 The second desirable end achieved was the benefit it brought to local fishermen. These freed from the competition of the larger craft found a more ready market for their fares The Indians of Southeast Alaska have benefited from this more than any other class Inasmuch they are fish ermen by tradition as well by training and environment, and must earn their living from these waters they ought to have whatever advantage that be legally given them.
 In informing Delegate Dimond it wanted to have this regulation retained for 1884 the Cham Der of Commerce represented the feeling of the entire community, business men well as fishermen. We are confident Commissioner Frank T. Bell, in formulating next years regulations, will leave this one unchanged On his visit here last Summer, asked regarding it. he declared at that time he had no intention of dropping the limitation. As there has been nothing developed since then to change the need for it. there is reason to believe that one is contemplated

PUBLICITY FOR ALASKA.

In the current months issue of the Elks' Maga- zine are two articles which will serve to bring Alaska and Aaskans much closer to the member ship of the B. P. O. Elks. One is an interesting account of the official visitation paid to Alaska lodges of that great organization by Grand Exalted Ruler Walter P Meier during the month of August and the other from the gifted pen of Alaska's former Governor, Scott c. Bone. While the former article is mainly account of the Grand Exalted Rulers visits, reading it cannot but have a better knowledge of such communities as Ketchikan, Juneau, Cordova Anchorage and Fairbanks, and of the methods of travel the scenic marveS of the Territory and something about it's people.
 Gov Bones article is entitled: "Alaska-Life and Lure of the Northland." It is written in his usual graceful and charming style and depicts intimately from the knowledge acquired by him during his tenure of office here something of the communities community and individual life and characteristics oi both Juneau and Sitka come in for major notice with Fairbanks and Anchorage almost as prominently featured
 Writes Gov. Bone:
 Life in Alaska is an open book. It em-
 braces widely scatterey groups into big
 Alaskan family, with none too humble to
 escape attention It embodies a democracy

Migrant Workers
 Boosted
League of Nations Comes to Assistance with Good-
 Will Approach

GENEVA, Oct 20. Borrowing an idea from the international exchange of college professors, a conference convoked by the labor bureau of the League of Nations has gone on record as advocating a similar plan for young workers.
 It was argued that this system would lead to more goodwill among naJions because it would reach the masses
 The discussion emphasized the importance of bilateral agreements, of which much has been said in Latin America in regard to the recruiting and placing of migrant workers.
 It asked the labor bureau to prepare periodically a survey of the regulations in various coun- tries governing the admission of foreign workers to the benefits of labor legislation and particularly of social insurance.
 Representatives of 3l countries took part in the deliberations. Will liam H. Stead, an American. exc cutive secretary of the Tri-City Employment Stabilization commit- tee. was one of the vice-presidents.

 That Professor Datsky should find evidence of a rise in temperature during the last half-century in Northern Siberia will not astonish geologists. The story told by rocks, the ten thousand lakes of Northern America and Europe, the gorge of Niagara, the clay banks that were river beds, is plain to him who has the skill to read it. We are living in the melting period of Ice Age which began about 5000 years ago-one of several Ice Ages which be traced back million years. To con- vince ourselves that despite the precipitation of Summer and the waving palms of Florida we are still in the grip of cold have but to cast eye over the thawing earth. Five million square miles of ice in the Antarctic, million esewhere-the total is still but half what it when glacial sheets last swept down into the United States and buried Northern Europe. If the immense deposit that stll remains were to melt in few decades, civilization would be destroyed. For the would rise nearly 200 feet and inundate the capitals of the world.

Or, as some be- lieve will the blanket of and ice thcken and bury culture which began 35000 years ago, when Neanderthalers roamed from Palestine to Spain? The questions of importance to the human race If predict the future guard against it's perils. Thirty-five thousand years is long

MINERS PLEASED. OVER PROSPECTS. OF SQUAW CREEK
District Said to Be One of Most Promising in
 This Vicinity

Believing Squaw Creek, in Brit
 ish Columbia, to be one of the most interesting mineral districts in this vicinity, L. Larson, H. Fald- ing and Tom Harper, who have
 been placer mining on claims staked there by them bordering the creek, since August l9, are passengers aboard the Yukon on their way to Vancouver, B. C., to spend the winter, and will re- turn to their claims with the op- ening of the season in the spring.
 Tt is unquestionably one of the most promising districts in this vicinity and I am sure will even tually be worked by hydraulic equipment though during the last season only hand work was done by the 42 men who were working on the British Columbia side of the creek. There is coarse gold in considerable quantity in the district. It is from four to six feet to bedrock in most places, with little overburden and good color on both Squaw and Gold

not altogether harmonious, that makes for communion of fellowship and a general con- cern in the welfare of one and all alike
 Indifference is not chargeable to the typical Alaskan. He would never permit one of his deserving fellows to be in distress. His generosity is proverbial and his innate kindness characteristic. If typical short coming could be truthfully assigned to typical Alaskan it would be that Of over concern in things not actually concerning him; yet even this trait is transformed into positive virtue by the bigness of the im- pulses underlying it.
 And again, in like strain, he said:
 Paternalism is likewise practiced by the Territory which more zealouSly looks after it's own probably, than any commonwealth in the Union It appropriates money for the rescue and relief of lost persons, for the care of indigent children, for the re- lief of destitution; maintains a Pioneers Home at Sitka, and pensions aged residents Considering Alaskas limited revenues ana small taxable population the outlay for all this is markedly generous.
 Gov. Bone defends Alaskans from charg sometimes made of being destructive of wild life Tn this connection he said:
 Instances of Wanton destruction of game are rare. Alaskans generally respect the law and are mindful of the necessity of preserving and protecting wild life. A friend ly people recognizes its neighbours rights The article bespeaks in almost every paragraph he deep love the former Chief Executive Of flask las for the Territory. It is that will interes Ill Eks and one that every Alaskan might prof oy reading.

 S12,0OO Taken Out This Year
 Approximately $12,000 was ta- ken out this summer from the g. GOO cubic yards which were work ed over, with IS nuggets weighing five ounces or over. Out of our two claims We took out about 60 ounces during the time we were in the district. Everyone working in the district is enthusiastic and will without doubt return early in the spring, as soon as the sea- son opens.

While they were on their way into Silver Bow Basin the snow started to slide without warning and they were caught and buried in the moving mass. By exercise of great energy they managed to dig their way out and were astonished to find that they had been carried some dis tance to the verge of a precipi- tous cliff, 200 feet high. They lost their guns and alpine stocks.
