THee-YeaT High in Home Building
 Reached in 1885

NEW YORK, Jan. l.--America dug away the depression debris and be- gan again, in respectable quantities, to build homes in 1885.
 As a con s eque n ce, residential building in 1885 exceeded 1884 by 85 percent in the first eleven months, with December expected to make lit- ,le difference in the full years gain. Home construction far outstripped lther forms of building in the rate # it's climb. The Associated Press easonally adjusted index for this classification had improved by late .935 to the best levels since early .932.
 More In 1886
 The expenditure of public funds, mostly WPA projects of the federal government with some minor aid on the part of states and municipalities, helped swell totals, but its major fleet was not expected to be felt intil well into 1886.
 
 All classes of construction, total contracts awarded in the 37 states 'ast of the Rocky mountains, as com piled by the F. w. Dodge Corp, were ! percent higher in the first II months of 1895 than in the same period of 1884.
 Such factors as higher rents, a ,ent-up demand for homes partially undammed by better employment md business conditions, and some elaxation of the mortgage money market operated to boost home con- itruction to an estimated 70,0O0 units n 1935.
 Yet housing experts estimate that 'ased on the normal year-to-year lew and replacement need for homes he nation is some seven to ten mill ion dwellings behind in it's house building.
 Unit Homes
 In this situation they see the hope ,f better things ahead for the in- iustry in l936 Such unpredictable actors as costs, which showed little ,hange in 1885 from the previous lear, and further thawing of mort gage funds, were admittedly uncer- ain factors, but did not appear to iampen the optimism of most build ing trade men. ,a
 Efforts went forward in 1885, hough still on relatively small scale, to tap. the, mass consumption" housing field, through e-fabricated units of very low cost To some housing authorities the most promis- ing long-range goal of the industry appears to- be the development of homes costing s2,0O0 to s$5,OO0.

fN v " rAY E Fr MINE WORKERS k ACCUSE N. A. M.
 OF CLASS WAR
Union Journal De clares Labor Will Accept
 the Challenge

, ! WASHINGTON, Jan. |. = The United Mine Workers, in san edi- uorial appearing in their union journal. accused the National Asso- ciation of Manufacturers of ''braz- enly fomenting class war" and declared, Labor and the common people accept the challenge"
 The editorial in the unions jour- nal recalled criticism of the Pres ident's labor relief policies by the manufacturers convention recently in New York, and added: "All right, gentlemen you have de- clared war on the President and all those who approve his policies. You have declared war against labor and the entire mass of common people of this nation
 Chasing the associations atti- tude as gross blunder, the editor ial said the time had passed when it's members could compel people to vote as they, the manufacturers, saw fit. The common people" de- alared the union journal, can out vote you ten to one at the polls"
 The editorial also classified the National Association of Manufac- turers as the most notorious anti union association in the United States"

 Congress to appropriate s4o,000 for vocational work here.
 Hospitals Needed
 The building of native hospitals at Bethel, Ketchikan, Seward, Kan akanak and Kotzebue are urged in the report of the Medical Service of the Indian Bureau. The service reported that the only expansion of it's service during 1885 was the addition of two travelling nurses. Hope was expressed in the report that sufficient funds would be raised by means of the Christmas Seal Sale of the Alaska Tubercu- losis Association to fight the white plague" among the natives of the Territory, who are 10 to 12 times more susceptible to it than those of many other regions.
 Division Reports
 The Division of Territories and Island Possessions cooperated with the EZRA in the establishment of the Matanuska colony, aided in the restoration of Nome after its fire, and organized the interdepartment- al committee on Alaska affairs to further the coordination of Federal activities here.
 A long-range program for colon ization and development of Alaska's mineral resources is expected to result from the series of meetings held on various phases of the divi- sion's work here.
 Rail Outlook Good
 The Alaska Railroad reports that early in this year an examination of the Eska coal leases, which is the railways emergency coal re- serve, was completed. A tunnel 1900 feet underground was driven into the beds.
 Tourist traffic increased over the previous year, according to the re- port, while cooperation continued to be given to the fields of agri- culture and mining. Total revenue of the Alaska Railroad for the year was $1,476,5 6,567.76, or an increase of IA per cent over 1884 Freight hauled gained by 15,7O2 tons, while the number of passengers carried increased by 7,486.
 A good outlook for next year is suggested in the report, due to stimulated mining conditions and the larger traffic caused by the Matanuska colony.
 ARC Kept Busy
 The road work at Matanuska, in addition to it's extensive regular duties, provided a busy year for the Alaska Road Commission. Sev- eral hundred extra men were tenn porarily employed by means of PWA funds for the new projects, and approval of the proposed air. port program will also greatly en- large the usual work of the con- mission.

enabling the Geological Survey to carry out special mapping work in Alaska. During the year four re- ports and two maps have been published, while eight manuscript reports and four more maps are now partly completed.
 In addition to routine duties, nine principal projects, seven of which involved new field work, were start ed durng the 1894 season. Six field projects were authorized for the 1885 season, and their completion is expected sometime next spring.
 Four Projects Begun
 Four geological projects include studies of that part of the Alaska Range east of the Richardson Highway and north of Slana, the central and soutehrn part of Ko- diak Island, the Tikchik Lake dis trict of Southwest Alaska, and a general study of the permanently frozen ground as affecting mining developments in the Fairbanks and Nome districts. ...4....,
 Two topographic field projects include the continuation of survey ing and mapping in the Admiralty Island area, and in the Alaska Range region, in the Tok Valley and sections south of Panama Cross ing.
 The Geological Survey also re- ported that it supervised one power project, two leases, one license and nine prospecting permits for coal and 100 prospecting permits for oil and gas. A total of 56,993 acres ol land in the Territory are now clas- sified as coal land.
 Surveying Under Way i The Cadastral Engineering Serv- ice of the General Land Office To- cated new surveying projects in tho Territory, and new map of Al aska is now being printed.
 The General Land Office reports total of 61 homestead entries here during 1885, totalling 706t acres.
 School Needs Told
 An immediate need for replace ment of worn out shacks which in many instances are serving as teachers quarters and school houses is reported by the Office of Indian Affairs for Alaska, which adds that there are at least 25 villages which have not been provided witf schools
 Ninety-nine schools and two boarding schools for Indians anC Eskimos are now operating in the Territory, with a total enrolment of 4,30O pupils.
 Vocational Work
 By an act approved March IA 1885. the Territory accepted the Vocational Education Act and ap- propriated $3O,0OO for 1935-37, anc biennially thereafter, for matching Federal funds, $15,000 of which was allotted this year. Glasses of thi. l type have been established in many communities, and bill is now pending before the next session O.

ments are located.
 There should be greater coopera- tion by the office of Indian Affairs and Federal and Territorial agen- cies in aiding destitute, aged, and afflicted Indians, and Congress should make larger appropriations for this purpose.
 There should be greater activity on the part of the Federal govern ment toward the extermination of predatory animals and other enc mics of the fish, game animals, and game birds of the Territory.
 Transportation Need
 T urge liberal appropriations for the improvement of national parks and monuments and the encourage ment of tourist travel in Alaska.
 Efficient management of the AL aska Railroad has practically elim mated the deficit in connection witt it's operation. The railroad. as wei as highways. air fields, etc. shoul be treated liberally and their utili- ration to the fullest extent encour- aged.
 Tn the development of Alaska perhaps the greatest need whicl Government can supply is adequat' transportation. have especially ir mind, roads, trails, bridges, and al service. In order to develop the re- sources of the Territory the Fed eral Government should be liberal in contributing to all these things. Right now, perhaps, the matter ot paramount importance is the devel- opment of air service and of first consequence in air service is air mail routes. A mail route through the territory from the States tc Nome with airports in Ketchikan Juneau Fairbanks, Nome, and ohter ports. A route from Anchorage or Fairbanks, or both. to the Kusko- kwim country at Bethel is also great ly needed This would require not only funds for carrying the mail bu. the building and improving of air fields and other aids for aerial in yestigations where necessary Not only is quick distribution of mails es- sential, the operation of planes on scheduled routes would be impossible without mail contracts. I earnestly recommend appropriations for all
 hases of this transportation scheme.
 T urge the extension of com prehensive program of survey for the public domain in Alaska as a means of increasing populate
 The construction of an interna- tional highway connecting the high ways of the United States, through British Columbia and Yukon Terri tory. with the highways of Alaska would contribute immeasurably to the growth of Alaska and it ought to be built at the earliest possible time.
 T believe the general reindeer supervisor should be given all of the authority that is necessary to carry on his recommendations in the field.
 Improvement to harbors and waterways should be continued and speeded up.
 The establishment of Naval and Army bases in Alaska is urged. Alas ka's position on the shortest route to the Orient would give submarines and airplanes command over the sea and make impossible a hostile move ment of fleets of warships or trans ports against the American Pacific coast. To cooperate with the Navy there should be Army airplanes and other Army forces"

may be advanced further by encour- agement to particularly gold mining-than in any other way.
 Increased Population
 The advancement for mining ac- tiyities always means an increase in population, and people is what Alas ka needs more than any other one thing. Increased population means greater consumption of foodstuffs and other things produced in the Territory.
 This suggests the need for more and better roads and more airplanes end better aids to navigation; lib- eral appropriations for roads, bridges, trails, and airways are those indi- cated.'
 Full Territorial Government
 In this report, the Governor touch- ed in detail on all the activities of the Territory. pointing to advance ments that have been made and those contemplated and needed. and recommended in conclusion as fol- lows:
 T recommend the establishment Of full Territorial form of govern ment in Alaska. No people are so interested in their state as those who live in it and there are none so qualified to determine the problems and policies of the government The Territory should have authority to create county or other organizations to control local matters, bringing the government closer to the people. That is impossible under the pres ent system.
 Depends On Mining
 Continued growth of Alaska de- pends largely upon vigorous devel- opment of mining-narticularly gold mining. Such development would cause expansion of population and increase in all phases of human ac- tivity. Title to nearly all the mineral lands in Alaska is in the Federal government. The Federal govern ment should assist in the develop ment of this land, and to that end urge sufficient appropriations for the United States Geological Survey and Bureau of Mines to do this worl; and to permit their cooperation with the Territory and the office of the Territorial mining organization. The increase in gold valuation will fos- ter gold mining development, but a system of quick examinations of new and old discoveries would stimulate prospecting and contribute to min ing development. The area and re- sources of Alaska would provide. if developed, relief for the over popu- lation of congested centers through out the country. People brought to Alaska to prospect for gold and find ing employment in public works would furnish population that would make markets for agricultural pro- ducts. timber. and other resources of the Territory.
