 IN ALASKA SOON

Negotiations with the Interior De- partment, Reindeer Service, have been nearly completed by the Bio- logical Survey to place Harlan Cub ser, expert won man and formerly of Alaska, in the Territory to again resume predatory animal control, according to word received here.
 Arrangements have been made whereby the Bureau will transport MT Gubser to the reindeer coun- try. after which his expenses will be paid by the reindeer service. It is proposed that he will spend the coming winter in northwestern AL aska working with the local rein deer people in giving demonstration to private trappers and encouraging the natives in adopting improved trapping technic. The Reindeer Service and the Bureau of Indian Affairs plan to furnish traps and snares which will be shipped to northwestern Alaska for distribution to the native trappers, to encour- age them in more modern methods.
 According to present plans, Mir. Gubser will leave the States some time in August and will spend q short time at Juneau contacting of ficials here. He will spend next win ter somewhere in the Kotzebue area, after which it is possible he will be stationed at Juneau and move his family here

 Objected Use
 Use Wills Name
(By The Associated Press)

(By The Associated Press)
 BEVERLEY HILLS Calf, Oct. 30, - Bill Rogers, son of the late Will Rogers made public an edi- torial to be published in his semi weekly newspaper, condemning "the use of Will Rogers name or photograph on any campaign literature, whether for Governor Landon or for any other presi- iential candidate"
 The editorial added that no one could associate Will Rogers name with any party, but that he was as neutral in political af- fairs as it was possible for a man to be.
 Bill Rogers said that his news paper, which had always been Republican, was now endorsing the election of Governor Landon.
 The editorial didn't say what party, if any, was using his fath- CTS name for campaign purposes.

estimate the cost would be close
to $4,000,000 annually with what
they describe as an adequate

This is the first. OF a series OF

BY A STAFF CORRESPONDENT
HMOND, Va, Jan. IA.
County government in Virginia is
doomed to be swallowed up by
State Capitalization unless local
functions are combined and the
areas of local government are ex-
tended to include sufficient area
of taxable wealth to support the
services essential to modern COM
munity life.
Such is the considered opinion
Of the Virginia Commission on
County Government, headed by
DR.. George w. Spicer, associate
professor Of political economy at
the University of Virginia. Other
members are Fred T. Prufer, sec
rotary; and E. Emery Elmore,
Ashton Dovell, Speaker of the
House Of Delegates, and Charles
c. Reed.
Facts Discovered
The Commission, studying the
cost of county governments. dis
covered some interesting facts.
It was found the smaller and
poorer counties spend more per
capita for contributory func-
tons.
These are county administra-
ton, assessment of taxable prop
erty, collection and disbursement
Of taxes, recording of documents,
elections, maintenance of build
ings and grounds, and miscella-
neous operating functions.
This means there is less Of the
taxpayers money to be spent
for direct, positive governmental
functions.
These are: Administration Of
justice, crime prevention. and de-
lection, fire prevention and ex-
tinction, public welfare. public
health, advancement of agricul-
ture, protection Of livestock and
fowls, highway, road and street
lighting, roads and schools.
It was found that Elizabeth
City county, the smallest in the
State, with an area Of SO square
miles, spent 1918 per cent Of its
total operating costs for con-
tributory functions and but S6.82
per cent for service functions.
Halifax County
Halifax county, with an area
of s14 square milestone of the
states largest, spent but 7.86
per cent for contributory func-
tions and 92.14 per cent for di-
rect services.
A difference Of eight square
miles in the area of the two small
est counties, Elizabeth City and
Warwick, showed little improve
ment, the commission discovered.
Warwick spent 1899 per cent for
contributory functions and 87.11
per cent for service functions.

BRIEF IN MD.

BALTIMORE, Jan. 14.-Con-
trary to popular historical belief
Maryland has been ruled by its
landed ariStocracy during only 20
years of its existence-and that
was before the Revolutionary War.
Such was the assertion made
last night by DR.. Paul H. Giddens,
of the history department Of Al
legheny College, Meadville, Pa, at
a meeting Of the Maryland Histori-
cal Society here.
For two decades preceding the
Revolution, DR.. GiddenS declared,
the State was controlled by the
hard-drinking fast-riding scionS of
the Dulany, Carroll, Tasker, Dor
Sey and other wealthy families.
Since that time, control has been
in the hands of democratic Bal
timore," according to DR.. Giddens.

OWNERS URGE
MAYOR TO
!. ACCEPT

ALEXANDRIA, Va, Jan. IA.
Potential possibilities Of the Deco
guam hydroelectric power site as
q basic unit for a municipal power
and water plant for the city OF
Alexandria loomed brighter today
Is 1t was learned that firm OF
consulting engineers had offered
the city Of Alexandria a prelimi-
nary survey without cost or obi
CATION.
Having already examined the
water dam site, the engineers, WI
ley and Wilson, of Lynchburg, Va,
offered Mayor E. c. Dawson, OF
Alexandria, in behalf of the city,
preliminary information and q
partial survey which would bring
the city to q point where 1t could
intelligently decide as to whether
the cost Of a complete survey and
report would be justified"
Possibilities Seen
Admitting that little detailed in
formation was in h a n d at this
time, the engineers letter to
Mayor Dawson further stated:
ut appears to US there are
possibilities which would justify
our going over the entire matter
with you and working up some
preliminary information without
cost, in case you would like us
to do So"
Submission Of the proposal to
the city council has been withheld
by Mayor Dawson pending receipt
of additional information concern.
ing the site. The greater part OF
this information requested by
Mayor Dawson is that being OF.
fered by the engineering firm OF
Lynchburg.
While Mr.. Dawson had not
planned to submit the proposition
to council tonight, it is considered
highly probable that, since attor-
neyS for the owners of the site
have requested him to accept the
offer made by Wiley and Wilson,
Mr.. Dawson may ask the council
tonight if it favors acceptance OF
the engineers plan to submit a
preliminary report without cost to
the city.
Despite the fact that Mayor
Dawson has been outspoken in his
contention that the city should
either get lower rates or turn to
municipal ownership Of water and
power, he said today that he would
not request the preliminary report
without the vote of the council,
even though it was offered with
out cost.
View Of Attorneys
In suggesting that the city allow
the engineers to submit a pre-
liminary report, attorneys for the
owner of the site said, in a letter
to Mr.. Dawson:
1--WE have undertaken to
gather together all the infOr-
nation within our ability in
order to present the same in an
orderly way. In order for such
. plan to be presented in a
complete way and to be Of real
value, 1t will be necessary to
have qualified engineers give
the necessary detailed and
technical information relative
to the practical and feasible
undertaking Of the complete
system.
I'VE would be glad If the
council could have the initial
advantage of such information
as offered by the Lynchburg
firm, or any other firm of quail
fled engineers. We believe that
any information furnished by a
qualified and diSinterested engi-
neer will SubStantiate and eStab-
fish the many advantages Of
the municipal ownership"
