 The sum required for initiating many hardrock or placer proposition of merit need not be large |Oftentmes modest equipment will get a property producing in such way it will yield enough to expand operations until ten or hundreds of thou sands of dollars worth of equipment-and some times millions be negotiated through customary financial or business channels.
 The big thing after locating likely proposition is to get started The Government has wisely recog- nized this fact. Therefore sums up to twenty thou sand dollars per property will be made available.
 Many fine properties in Alaska have been re- tarded in their development because Of lack of means for the initial work
 Certain Anchorage people known to already te planning to wire to Washington to ask for loans under the new plan. Many others in Alaska should catch the spirit and send in their requests
 Precaution must be taken not to request aid Tor nere wildcat propositions. Anyone dolng so WILL waste his time. The Government will have com ,etent engineers or geoogists make examinations operator will only get himself into hot water and expose himself false.

THE FIRST GREAT AMERICAN.

Throughout the nation today homage is beinl given justly to George Washington the first Presi dent of the United States
 In describing the American Revolutionary period James Truslow Adams, in his book "The Epic o America records that the first great step ant legacy of the period when secession becam a fact He continues:
 Another was the character of Washington In the travail of and revolution, Am erica had brought forth man to be ranked with the greatest and noblest of any age in the world. There have been greater generals in the field and statesmen in the cabinet in and other nations. There has been no greater character. When we think of Washington it is not as military leader executive diplomat We think of the man who by sheer force of character held divided and disorganized country to- gether until victory was achieved and who after peace was won still held his dis united countrymen by their love and respect and admiration for himself until nation welded into enduring strength and unity It is a mistake to think of the America of 1776-83 as a nation of patriots pressing their services to gain their free dom.

To Bond Or Not To Bond

Right now the spectacle of a Connecti- cut county bonding itself for highway construction looms If that is the case, the authority of the State Highway De- partment seems to be in dispute As could be expected the case in question is that of the Merritt Highway, bugaboo, if ever there was one Why is it that Fairfield county has to be plunged into the most lOng-drawn out controversies? First 1t was Sherwood Island State Park. Now it is the Merritt Highway. And both overlap, because both are still open to dis cussion.
 The Merritt Highway issue is more or less over the type of road to be built and the means by which it will be financed. To date the State Highway Department exclusively has spent money on the prof. ect. We believe that rights of way for the entire route are now in the possession of the department. And actual construc- tion has started, too But this construc- tion has been rather piece-meal and that has irked Fairfield county, especially so when it has perfectly good Merritt High way Commission which apparently isn't being given much consideration in the matter of deciding on the outlines of the roadway.
 Now county bond issue to defray the entire cost of building the parkway imme- diately is proposed. It has won some legislative support at Hartford, notably that of Senator John F. Lynch, republican leader in New Haven county But Sena- tor Lynch is unalterably opposed to ex- tending the powers of the Merritt High way Commission on the theory that no state deparment should be superseded by county group He is perfectly right ill this attitude, but we can't quite reconcile the two If the county issues bonds to build the road, it will be natural to confer extraordinary powers on some agency. And in this case the Merritt Highway Commission would seem the natural one to be favored.
 We still, stick to our personal opinion on this subject. If the road is to be built in the magnificent style that Fairfield county demands, it is to be built as one unit and not in separate sections; if it is to be built in a short space of time instead of over long stretch of years, then a great many millions must be put right on the line inn mediately. And that calls for special fi- nancing. In this case bonds or short term notes, distasteful as they may seem for the added interest burden they impose. are in order. But coupled with bond issue we stand alone for toll road, the tolls retiring the bonds as rapidly as pos sible. Archaic, perhaps! But at least Fairfield county will get what it wants in beautiful parkway and pay for it at the same time.
