WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Critics
of what is sometimes called the
research racket center much of
their fire on the Implications and
countless investigations in the de-
partment of agriculture which run
| into millions of dollars year.
Mere listing of all items would be
impossible in limited space. Even
items on which more than 100000
was spent last year cannot all be
listed. In an organization spending
81. 4.000. 900 900 a year a 100000 item
is small change though it would
take man working at $50 week
almost 40 years to earn that much.
1t is more than the average man
earns in a whole lifetime.
Here is a skeleton outline of eX-
penses last year within just one
government department, revealing
the number of Investigations and
the duplication of work that goes
on among several bureaus all oper-
ating under the secretary of agri-
culture and supposedly consolidated
into one unified working unit OF
the executive branch.
These particular figures show to
what an extent federal funds are
expended on investigating insects.
The insects are investigated by first
one branch of the agriculture de-
partment and then another.
First, important expenditures in
the entomology bureau:
Fruit and shade tree insects,
100000.
Truck and garden crop insects,

Forest insects, $4,000.

mails, $4,000.
animals, $4,000.

BEER BATTLE STILL -- WAGES AT JUNEAU:
 END REPORTED NEAR

JUNEAU, April 28,-After an eX- tended debate Thursday afternoon the House rejected the Lingo and Green industrial insurance con- mission plan by vote of 9-7 and kept it's batting average high when it defeated in rapid succession, Campbell's bill for $5 road tax and Bragaw's for tax of $2.50 on radio sets in use; the latter meas ure was declared by Kehoe to be unconstitutional, who quoted a United States District Court cpin- ion in a South Carolina case to support that contention.
 Nerland sprang surprise when his bill creating non-partlsan private system was passed by a < 9-7 vote; five Democrats, Judson, Green. Holman, Patterson and Nordale joined with four Republi- cans to put the measure over.
 Hofman's bill regulating the practice of pharmacy was passed after an amendment adopted per mitting drug sundrieS to be sold by general stores.

GOVERNOR ]. TROY
 HEARTILY IN FAVOR IF
 TRANSFERRING CONTROL

JUNEAU, April 29,-CoYernor J. Troy expressed complete agree ment with Delegate \. J. Dlmond's proposal to transfer the control of fish and game to the Territory.
 I agree with all that Delegate Dlmond said; as Mir Dimond stat ed these transfers would be the first step toward fulfilling the Democratic party's pledge to try and obtain home rule for the Ter ritory.
 ''The objection to present condi-~ tionS are that laws affecting fish and game in Alaska are admins tered by people who are not di-- rectly concerned with their admin istration. When Alaskans control their own resources they will con slider the best interest of the peo- pie and the Territory at all times.
 ''The control from Washington has been more or less of a benefi- cient theory. I will concede the Bureau of Fisheries also the RIo-. logical Survey has been endeavor- ing ln measure to do some good work but it cannot be said it would be as good as If our own people were handling our own affairs. Passage of Delegate Dimond's two bills will go far toward establish ing home rule in Alaska.
 "The next important step is to work out system of local govern merit to give various communities and sections of Alaska greater au- thority in the management of To- cal affairs;l also for solution of To- cal problems The people of Alas ka can be congratulated in having man of DlnUrrd,s ability, colr- age, industry and personality at Washington as their representa- tive. In two III in jhs he has achieved a standing regard which Congressmen of 10 years service might we'll envy"

PRESS REPRESENTATIVE a' AND CAMERAMAN ID
 FLY AUGUsTlN ISLAND

To ascertain the truth of the Seward report that Augustin Is land, at the head of Cook Inlet, vanished beneath the waves dur in Wednesdays and Thursdays earthquakes or eruptions, Ray Nc Donald, of KFQD, Anchorage, rep resentative of the United Press, has been authorized from the States to make special airplane flight over the area.
 MT. Mcdonald, in a telephone conversation yesterday with The Gateway, told of his plans and that he was taking Denny Hewitt, expert cameftman, with him to procure both still and moving pic lures and it was planned to fly to Seward today with the films in order to send south on the SS. AL aSka.
 Additional reports and contrary to that of yesterday was that two trappers lived on the large volcan- ic island of approximately 5000 feet elevation at the highest point, and which beaches and waters were more or less warm at all times.
 LATERAL a late hour today word was received that the flight had been cancelled pending furth- CT information from the Seldovia- Iliamna area. However, MT. Mo Donald said it was hoped an An chorage plane would fly over that region today with the view of finding out if everything is al- right.
 Mel Horner, proprietor of the Overland Hotel, is somewhat wor- ried about MT. and Mrs. Mamie Senft of Seward, who have a trap ping cabin at the mouth of Kam- ishak river, about 20 miles or less from Augustin Island. Should an Anchorage plane fly down to the area, they will investigate the Senft's as well as two or three other trappers along the mainland in that vicinity.
 The Gateway has also received numerous inquiries from the Stat es as to the veracity of the report that Augustin Island vanished during the quakes of the last two days. If such a thing had hap pened, a tidal wave would have followed and undoubtedly been re- ported from some source. The SS. Otsego was discharging cannery supplies at Seldovia today and it was hoped to establish contact with the ships radio today for further information. Augustin Is- land, on clear days, can be seen from Seldovia.
