gates to the London conference were
inclined to the opposite view.
Norman FL. Davis, the American dele
gate, said that the foremost accom-
plishments of the new treaty were 1.-THE
provisions which for the first time in
troduce the principle Of advance notifi-
cation Of building programs combined
with a rigid and detailed system of ex-
change of information"
In his speech at the signing cere-
mony, Davis said:
We haze undertaken to keep each 9th.

srucd0n in navies, but also OF our pro-
jecte1 construction. We undertake to mott.

relations.
1.-The fear of what your neighbor is
about to do causes distrust and suS-
picion which may in turn lead to a
competitive increase in ornaments. We
hope to eliminate this fear in respect
of naval ornaments by telling each
other frankly and honestly in advance
of our intentions. We believe that
such an act will tend so to regulate the
rapidly and development of the con-
struction of one nation that it cannot
be regarded as a menace to Others"
Hope Japan Will Sign.
The treaty was signed by Great Brit
ain, France and the United States.
Japan is going to sign the submarine
protocol agreed to during the negotia-
tons. Italy, 1t is believed, will sign the
entire treaty before the year is out. II
is hoped that Japan will also sign 1t.

Disobedient Boy Of Is Hangs
Self After Being Sent to Bed

Glenn Halberg, thirteen-year-old
farm boy, of South Bend Ind, be-

A MOST COMMENDABLE PROJECT

Responding to the communication from M. s. Whittier Executive Secretary of the Territorial Chamber of Commerce relative to the establishment of full time, paid Executive Secretary to carry the work of publicizing the Territory, the Juneau Chamber of Commerces start towards the establishment of what it terms an Alaska Pub icity Bureau is not only highly commendable actuality it be outstanding accomplishment of that group and that will reflect to it's ever lasting credit
 The action is definitely timely.
 At no time in Alaskas history has comparable widespread interest in the Territory throughout the states been evinced.
 True in the gold rush days hordes poured in; but most of them merely to quickly exploit make a stake and leave
 The revived interest in gold mining is attracting capital that anticipates much longer pull resulting in operations which will extend over many years and sustain population protracted period.
 The Matanuska project has and is demonstrating to millions of uninformed that Alaska is not ice snow and gold, but agricultural country as well.
 Our huge fisheries and the excellent advertising they are getting through cooperative packers nation wide campaign graphically making hundreds of thousands of people aware of Alaska's importance as source of food supply.

 engers have come to Alaska from the United States and British Columbia according to the Collector o Customs report, large proportion of which were ourists
 Alaska is definitely on it's way, but bureau along he lines which the Chamber of Commerce is con dering be of inestimable value The steamship and railroad companies have
 arried excellent advertising campaign, the
 uccessful results of which obvious.
 Properly set-up, bureau such as the Chamber ls contemplating could assist the transportation companies in the continuance of their efforts.
 Equally if not important the personnel of such Bureau could te-n the further development and increase the prosperity of the Territory by being
 clearing house for facual information ranging from hiking, camping cruising and all outdoor sports that tourists seek and which Alaska can offer in abun- dance.
 Such Bureau could work with and encourag, AL askans in various sections build-up tourist lions, to make it easy for the biggame hunter to arrange his hunts the touristfisherman his fishing expeditions or provide accommodations for those who would vacation for week or more in Alaska if suit able arrangements were assured.
 The direct, profitable benefits of co-ordinated effort in selling a state community, district are on record literally from Maine to California
 Alaska can do likewise. The start of Tne project is in most capable hands, the committee consisting cf Allen Shattuck, H. L. Faulkner and A. B. Phillips. From Juneaus start it is hoped that all the Chambers of Commerce throughout the Territory will cooperate and through the Territorial Chamber of Commerce which M S. Whittier has served well as executive secretary the establishment of the Bureau will be consummated.

SAFETY Laos,
SURVEY SHOWS
Auto Fatality Reduction in
Cities Is Offset by Coun-
try Accidents.
APRIL 10, 1886.

Indiana's war on its unsavory rec
ord for auto fatalities apparently Is
bearing some fruit in the cities and
towns of the state, but not in the
rural areas.
A three-months survey, completed
by the State Department of Safety
revealed today that the auto fatal
ity total for December, 1885, and
January and February of this year
decreased as much as 2l.9 per cent
in some cities, but the rural area
decrease was less than l per cent.
The auto death total for the state
during the three-month period was
$50 and was only one more than
during the like three-month period
of year ago.
City, Town Tolls Cut
However, cities and towns reduced
their total fatalities from 100 to 93.

sponsible for the improved record.
The rural area total for the three
month period in 1886 was IT'S.
Figures for the five largest cities
of the state-Indianapo Fort
Wayne, South Bend, Evansville and
Gary-showed that 40 persons were
killed by automobiles during the
1935-36 period as against SO the pre-
ceding year.
Fort Wayne's low death rate of
only one fatality for the period gave
1t the lead in the State Safety De-
partment's accldent-prevention con-
test which is 10 end Nov. 30.
indianapolis List Drops
Indianapolis cut it's toll from 38
to % during the three month Pc
Rod.
Fatalities by counties, which also
included those occurring in cities
and towns, showed more than 70
per cent of the total number of
deaths in the state were in rural
areas. A total of 1876 lives were lost
in rural areas, on this classification,
du,ing the 1935-1936 period as
against 1877 a year before.
The safety contest is directed by
Donald F. Silver, state safety di-
rector, in an effort to decrease
lndia1a's high auto fatality rating
among the states and to determine
the states safest city and county.
