CODE FOR GOLD MINING.

Last Saturday as guest of the local Bar Asso citation, Hugh Wade, Deputy NRA Adminstrato for Alaska, emphasized his purpose to bring gol mining as well as the fisheries industries, under code He was hopeful of cooperation from tn mining industry. He is already working on a salmon canning code and is getting fine cooperation Iron both the canners and their employees.
 In his attitude toward the gold mining ndustr he is in complete accord with Delegate Anthony : Dimond The latter, in radio address recent made over two Alaska broadcasting stations, b electrical transcription, the Delegate expressed hi own views follows:
 It should be borne in mind by the gold producers that all of the domestic economic policies of the Administration have one prin- cipal object in view, and that is increase in the purchasing power of the people. be- cause. this increase in purchasing power can only result in an improved economic condi-
 tion Therefore, under the principles of natural justice the gold producers ought to take prompt and adequate measures to fairly distribute a substantial portion of the benefits which they are receiving from the increased price of gold This can be done in one direction very readily by increase in the wages of those employed in gold mining It can also be done by an increase in the number of men employed. If the wages of the workmen are not raised, if no additional people are given work, it is plain that the increased wealth which is derived from the advance in price of gold will go to the operators only and there will be little increase in the purchasing power of the rank and file of the people. I there fore sincerely trust that the gold mine op
 orators will without hesitation see to it that wages are approximately advanced or that additional men employed that all engaged in the industry may share in the benefits derived from the gold policy of the
 df,airi ictr rotin plicabe where wages have been reduced during the depression. Anything less than this will counter to the plans of the President and moreover I view it, denial of this relief to the workers is denial to them of what they entitled to under the principles of justice.
 We do not believe that any such dispositio will be found in the Alaska gold mining industr Last November, during visit here P R.

 and abide by them cordially. However, it must come in an orderly manner and from

noticeable effect upon deposits largely accounted for by the fact that New York institutions had not suffered as had many others through loss of public confidence. Bankers generally attributed the in creases in deposits to the laws operations
 Chicago banks reported people taking money out of safety deposit boxes and deposting it, and one bank of that city reported increase of $7000,000 in the first 10 days. Another showed a gain of 100 per cent in the total amount in savings ac- counts. Detroit Kansas City San Francisco, Los Angeles and other cities gained and in the State of Oklahoma an increase of % per cent was noted. The present system of insurance, which covers de- posits up to $2500 will run only to July l, when the permanent system which covers up to $10000 will go into effect. It is reasonable to believe that there will be similar gains in deposits at that time

BANK INSURANCE BOOSTS DEPOSITS

Those who criticised the Federal bank deposits insurance law having little practical value, and an unsound financial scheme, should be pleasantly disappointed by the deposit statistics from banking houses throughout the country since the law became effective the first of this year They have shown increases ranging upward much as 50 per cent. In places there have been withdrawals from postal savings institutions and commercial banks to transfer accounts to insured banks.

 China Joe, one of Juneau's old est inhabitants held open house in honor of the beginning of the New Year in China at his little place on Third and Main Streets, where he lived quietly and unob- strusively cultivating the little plot of ground that had surrounded his place since 1881. For more than thirty years Joe had held open house on this occasion and had welcomed old and young with rich candies and fruits from his home land for the women and children and something more cheering for the male adults. Always friendly with the whites, and kind to the needy, China Joe had endeared himself to the pioneers and resi- dents in many ways. On one occa- sion, when he had a monopoly on flour during winter when boats were months apart, he kept the price of bread the same, instead of realizing handsome profit as many merchants had been known to do in the northland. He was the only Chinese alIowE'N - remain in town when the great Chinese exodus from the Pacific Coast set in in 1885. He was said to have first come north in 1874

said that the sense of responsibility
for the safety of others had de-
veloped in the United States as in
no other country. The president
and manager of the Council, Mr..
Walter Dent Smith, in his annual
address gave twelve recommends
tions for increased safety, accident
prevention and efficient service all
of which were unanimously adopt
ed. President Smith said in part:
Delaware is one Of seven states
which was able to reduce the toll
of life lost through automobile &C
cidents last year. This record has
been continued into 1884 to date
showing a 13 per cent improvement
over our previous record. in spite
of the fact that nationally auto
cides have increased 18 per cent.
Last year the City of Wilmington
won honorable mention in the Ma
tional Traffic Safety Contest and
our commercial vehicles took first
place in the National Inter-Coun-
Gil Commercial Vehicle Contest. In
10 years we have almost doubled
our roadway safety as measured in
millions of miles travelled per traf-
fic death-from two and one-half
to four and one-half. Delaware's S
accident victims last year approx
mated the number of casualties on
the recent MORO Castle disaster.
To attack this unnecessary loss of
life is the challenge whicn we have

even more effective. With the full

ing advanced more than 3 points
and others of the group were bid
up fractions to a point.
Aviation issues were given a bit
of whirl when Colonel Lindbergh
told senate committee army planes
could not be equipped as fully as

lines need temporary subsidy. Doug
las advanced more than a point
and United Aircraft a point.
