SENATE TO ASK FOR SURVEY OF
 LIVING COSTS s
President A $ k ed to De- termine Them Before
 Making Wage Cuts

The President of the Init e States is asked to make a study of living costs in Alaska before au- thorizing any material reduction in wages or salaries of officials or employees of the Federal Govern ment here, in memorial intro duced today by Senator Camp bell, Anchorage.
 It claims that the cost of living in the Territory is much greater than in any of the States, by req son of isolation and transportation, and that no reductions should be made until a survey of conditions is made.
 Two bills and a joint resolution were introduced in the Senate to- day in addition to MT. Campbell's s memorial One of the bills is a committee substitute for a meas ure introduced early in the session by Senator Bragaw repeating Chap ter A, Session Laws of 1919, rela- tive to organization of municipal governments in townsites along the Alaska Railroad. As these com munities can now organize under the regular municipal code, the old law is no longer needed.
 Another Committee su bs i ute, Senate Bill No. 82, was introduced by the Committee on Judiciary to replace House Bills No. 13 and IA, fixing the time of holding general elections and the date of conven- ing of the Alaska Legislature The Senate bill retains the same dates as the Blake measures-the second Tuesday in September for elections, and the second Monday in January for the Legislature to meet. Like the House bills, the act will not be- come effective until validated by Congress.
 MT. Lomen is author of Senate Joint Resolution No 4. which in- structs the Board of Trustees of the Pioneers Home to make an al- lowance of $20 per month to Carl

Elfendahl F a V ors Putting Alaskans to Work
 at Canneries

The Alaska Pacific Salmon Cor poration cannery at Ketchikan will be manned entirely by Ketchikan labor, and in other places all local help possible will be employed as- cording to Victor H. Elfendahl President of the corporation, who arrived in Juneau on his annual preseason business trip on the Yukon this morning
 Last year before the season started, MT. Elfendahl said his company considered the plan oi using local labor at Ketchikan and some members of the firm doubted the feasibility. However, they de- cided to try it and the plan worked out wonderfully well, and proved success far beyond their expec- tations.
 Consequently throughout their operations in Alaska the company MT. Elfendahl represents will use maximum amount of local labor and do all possible to cooperate with the plan of putting as many Alaskans to work as possible.

TROY PRAISES
 CRAFTSMANSHIP OF ROOSEVELT
Editor of Empire Finds President in Sympathy
 with Alaskan Desires

"The United States has for Presi- dent the greatest living statesman in the world" declared John w Troy, Governer-Designate of Alaska, who returned home early today from an extended stay in Wash ington, D. C., and ready to assume his official duties without delay.
 He has furnished the nation with leadership unmatched in vision courage and frankness that has won for him the confidence and support of the entire country Democrat and Republican alike from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, and from the Canadian boundary to Mexico. No statesman of our day has ever so completely won the confidence of the whole people, none 50 justly merited it. MT. Troy declared.
 Home Rule Sympathizer
 President Roosevelt is deeply
  sympathetic with Alaska's long-ex- pressed desire for home rule and will be receptive to a legislative program that will achieve it, he added And such program will be worked out and presented to the Administration by Delegate Di- mond.
 Up to this time the Administra- tion has been occupied in working out 8 program of legislation to meet the emergencies that confront the nation Until this has been completed and enacted into law, neither the President nor Congress will have the time to consider a special Alaska program. This. ne cessarily, will delay the Delegated plans for obtaining amendments to the Territory's enabling act which are essential to extend greater powers of self-government to AL askans
 Makes Fine Impression
 The Delegate is making won derful impression in Congress and in the National Capital generally, MT. Troy said He has made as many friends as any new member of Congress. And there are mem bers who have not yet met him who are friendly to him and im- pressed with him just from the way he has gone about represent ing Alaska in Congress.
 He is living up to the reputa- tion he made in the Alaska Leg islature for public service. He is working as hard in Washington as he ever did in Juneau. and mak- ing just as good in every way.
 Met by Friends
 Although MT. Troy's steamer did not arrive until o'clock this morning, this, however, did not

FIRST FIGHT LOST

WASHINGTON, April 18. = The cry for monetary imitation was heard in the Senate once again as defeated inflationists formed lines for second vote in as many days.
 The first effort yesterday ended in a 43 to 33 defeat for the free coinage of silver at a Is to 1 ratio.
 With gold showing gain for proposals, the final vote on the farm program, to which imitation measures have been added as amendments, is expected by tomor- row night.
 Word from the White House, through Senator Robinson, just be- fore the vote was taken yesterday, was that President Roosevelt was opposed to making currency infla- ton part of the farm program. This is held by many as decisive factor in defeating the silver amendment.
 The proposal that is up today was offered by Senator Thomas, of Oklahoma, which would give the President authority to use any of several methods aimed at inflat- ing currency by remonetizing silver or reducing the gold content in the dollar
 Defeat is predicted for this meas use.
