watching Ell Edlovitch, youthful

touch with the administrative de- partments, and thereby furnish ing the features of government which are most necessary and vii al to the development and pro- gress of those territories, and the people who reside there"
 Of particular note was the statement of Dr. Greuning pertain ing to his visit to Palmer, Mata- nuska Valley, upon the anniver- sary of its founding: While in Matanuska, where the govern ment has actually established a settlement of about 1000 honest, industrious and conscientious Am erican citizens, engaged in the pursuit of agriculture, I was eX- tremely pleased 10 see the man. her in which the work there Is being carried on to such a suc- cesSful extent. It is my honest conviction that this project is one which I am decidedly confident, will be entirely successful and demonstrate beyond all doubt or conjecture, that its motive and fruition are logical and practical to the fullest extent"
 Dr. Greuning had been but two days in office when the fire of September l7th, 1884 occurred in Nome, and in voicing humorous ly that historical parlance: They decided not to fiddle while Nome burned" and promptly came to her assistance with an appropria- tion of S50,000 for relief.
 Both Dr. Greuning and Mir. Wat son were much surprised to see the manner in which Nome has been rehabilitated since that cat astrophy, being pleasureably i'm pressed with the evident progress and activity which has increased steadily in this section since that time.
 They were returning passeng- CTS aboard the Pacific Alaska Air ways plane for Fairbanks this af- tenoon, and expect to fly to Jun eau with Governor Troy, from Fairbanks, tomorrow. Dr. Greun ing stated he expected to spend several days in southeastern AL aska before taking steamer pass age to Seattle and thence to Wash ington, D. C., his headquarters, where pressing matters of import ance await him.

Continued From Page One) Divis ion and our entire time is spen. in checking continually with the several territories. what their requirements and conditions are. I believe we are giving a more careful scrutiny and ener- eetic attention to these matters, attempting to determine to an intelligent degree, as possible, what the federal government should reasonably and dutifully carry out in their conduct of af- fairs to promote and develop these natural resources and assist the populations thereof" he de clared.
 Drawing attention to the man. ner in which his department, or for that matter, any department, manages to obtain information as to the necessities of the countries, Dr. Greuning declared:
 Tt is only through constant touch with the people themselves, their complaints, demands, sug- gestions, and entreaties, that the federal government can hope to furnish the help required in the proper government of these af- fairs"
 Relative to the means em- 5 ployed in Washington, D. C., while Congress is in session, in the securing of the proper legis- lation requested, we must over come countless obstacles which lack of knowledge of the country has placed in our way. As this is my first trip to Alaska am in no position to make at this time, any constructive observa- tions as to what it requires or what are it's demands, except, that in the travelling of the vast distances by airplane, I can hon. estly say that without this great industry, the progress of the Ter ritory would be slow indeed. l readily recognize the necessity of roads, having flown over hund reds of miles, where l can see it would be practically impossible to penetrate the country without either the airplane or some oth- CT means of up-to-date tranSpor- tation. The necessity of roads, and also of landing fields, furth- ernce of development work in the large industries of Alaska which are such a vital factor in the trade and commerce of the Pacific Coast in particular, are being more and more, recognized and made conscious of in Washington D. C.
 q believe, and I am sure that it is the policy of the present ad- ninistration, although I speak not from any political viewpoint or partisan standpoint, that goV- ernment, and the aims of govern ment, are being more directly ap- piled to the people themselves, who make up our great nation, than of any other administration. We are attempting to get to the vital point of carrying on govern ment and its activities for the benefit of the people who compose that government, and for that reason my Bureau is constantly working at the problem of bring ing the territories into closer
