No Power to Prohibit
The committee points out that un-

Because Of the elimination Of the
local option possibilities, the com.

vendors excessively. Cities can levy
a tax which IS sufficient to cover
administrative and supervisory costs
only.
The lawyers recommend that the
right to sell beer be restricted to per.
sons who are citizens and residents Of
the city. and that stores which are
foreign corporations with ownership
outside the state be denied licenses
The committee would deny licenses tx

RECOVERY MOVE IS
R0OSEVELT'S GOAL
Credit Expansion and Higher
Farm Prices Are Given as
Immediate Aims

Washington, Sept. 26.-(P)-Presi-
dent Roosevelt turned holneward
Tuesday to develop in the quiet of his
fiyde Park residence new invigoratior
for. the governments manifold recov-
cry efforts.
Ways to expand credit and lift farm
prices topped the chores scheduled fol-
even more intensive study by Roose-
welt after three crowded weeks spent
canvassing every phase Of the federal
push toward economic betterment.
These tasks have received the presi-
dents earnest attention from the hour
Of his return to the white house after
Labor Day from brief yachting holi-
day. New orders seeking to boost
farm incomes and aid MIRA industries
have been issued rapidly. and demands
for currency initiation apparently re-
jected for the present.
Newest developments In an inten-
sive credit-expansion program was a
promise given the president by steel
executives to submit competitives bids
on q 100000 tonnage order for steel
rails. Roosevelt planned to advance
the $25.c00,000 or more needed by the
carriers to buy the rails-provided the
prices are low enough.
The steel purchase was the subject
Of one white house conference Mon
day. A cheaper dollar was the sub
iect Of another in q plea for 1926
money and price levels presented by
a farm group headed by Edward A.
O'Neal, president Of the farm bureau
federation.
Already the president has initiated
numerous federal moves aimed at
higher farm prices and easier credit.
Prominent In the new steps Of re-
cent weeks were:
Would Buy Staples
A program for spending $751;
100000 or more on surplus farm
and staple products for distribu-
ton to the needy.
A concerted effort to expand
credit. joined in by the federal
reserve board, the Reconstruction
corporation, the farm credit adj
ministration, the Home Owners
Loan corporation, and the public
works administration. The drive
included offers to advance mil
lions to banks for industrial loans.
to relieve banks Of slow farm and
city mortgages, to open and
SHr0HNNfhAv% 81 At~&A
banks. to spend faster the ST.
600,000.0 900 Of allocated public
WORKS money.
Organization Of the Deposit
Guaranty corporation to guaran-
tee new deposits.
An offer to lend 10 cents 4
pound on cotton held on farms.
Mondays offer to use public
works money to buy steel rails.
These new stimulants to recovery
were In operation. though some were
not yet beyond organization stages.
While the president was reported to
be considering adding coal to the
farm commodities for relief distribu-
tion, the agricultural adjustment ad-
ministration was studying the rela-
ton between farm surpluses and
prices, seeking to determine the most
effective method Of expending RIG

Five Percent Decrease

The decrease in the value of the
total mineral production of Alaska
in 1882 as compared with 1881, as
shown above, was about per cent.
To persons familiar with the gen
eral business situation throughout
the world so small a decrease den
onstrates the fundamentally sound
condition of the mining industry
in the Territory. To those less ia
miliar with general conditions 1t
may be stated that a comparison of
the average selling price of three
of the common metals that contrib
ute to the mineral output of the
Territory-copper, lead and silver
showed that the prices received in
1892 were, respectively, 10, S3 and
81 percent of the prices for the
same metals in 1881, or only about
SO, As, and 40 percent of the prices
received in 1929.
1t was not the direct effects of
decrease in selling price of those
metals, however, that has caused
the drop in mineral production, so
much as their indirect and less OBJ
vious effect in lettering operators

TOWN OFFERS CHOICE OF TRACTS TO

must be given by the town in which
it was located. The committee had
secured options running for one
year or until such time as decision
is reached by the board as to the
location of the home, stated Mr..
Mccormack, on all the unoccupied
land on Shustack point. The Mathe-
son tract, comprising five and one
third acres had given an option at
$500. The ball park, also contain
ing a little over five acres, being
city property would not require an
expenditure of money by the city.
The council voted the resolution
such action being necessary to make
the offer binding and one on which
the Territory might rely without
question.
Personal Contributions
1t is understood, however, that
the greater part, if not all, of the
amount will be raised by private
contribution, a number of reliable
men having offered definite sums
for that purpose, should the Ter
ritorial Board decide upon Wran-
CELL as the location for the Home.
and upon Shustak Point as its pref
erence for the building site.
Fire Hose Discussion
The meeting closed with spirit
ed discussion on the subject of pur-
chasing additional fire hose, in re-
spouse to repeated warnings by the
fire department that the hose now
in use is inadequate for big fire.
The dc rartment claims that if a
serious fire should break out some
distance from fire hydrant that
it would be difficult with the hose
available to bring it under control
and that serious fire might easily
ensue.
Councilmen Sorset and Stump
ton stood out the most strongly
that the city should not allow a
fire hazard to exist by refusing to
purchase $500 or $500 worth of
new hose. They also pointed out
that as the price of four-inch hose
has advanced five cents a foot in
recent weeks, the hose should be
ordered before it advances still fur
