HIGHLIGHTS ON THE

After a twO-day discussion with
representatives from 81 wheat
states meeting in Washington, con-
corning the wheat situation in rela-
tion to the proposed 1888 Agricul-
tural Conservation Program, the
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tratiOn announced recently that as
far as wheat is concerned, present
plans are to continue the soil con-
servatiOn program in 1898 as this
year with wheat included in a gen.
eral soil-depleting base.
The conference was called to con-
slider whether special provisions as
to wheat acreage should be incor-
pOrated in the 1888 program. How
ever. after the meeting considered
possible alternative methods for
1888 under existing legislation, the
general soil-depleting base. provis-
ions of the 1897 program seemed to
be preferred. The meeting was at

three possibilities is apparently pre-
ferred, so far as the problem of
bases is concerned, proposals for
notifications in the 1888 program in
other respects are to be discussed
in meetings with farmers in the
wheat states this summer.
Wheat is classed as a soil-deplet-
ing crop under the conservation pro-
gram. However, farmers coOperat-

diverting from any one or more of

crops. Wheat acre

with normal yields such an acreage
would probably result in excessive
supplies.
Possibilities discussed for wheat
In 1888 included: first, the continu-

base; second, the establishment of
normal wheat acreages for farms

WELFARE OF sEAMEN

For the past week the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries has had under consid- eration proposed amendment to the Act approved June 25, 1886, to promote the welfare of American searnen and to further insure the safety of life and property at sea. Last year it was discovered at the Committee that certificates of dis charge issued to seamen under the former law were. altered and forged by the tens if not hundreds of thousands and that, as conse- quence, as in the case of the S.S. Moro Castle, men presented cer- tificates and were employed on ships as seamen who had never been to sea.
 In order to prevent such occur rences in the future, the Act of 1886 contained provision requir- ing continuous discharge books which give the rame, age and iden- tification data of the seamcn and in which the shipping commission CTS and collectors and deputy col lectprs of customs are required to enter at the end of each voyage the record of the seaman's service on

PICTURE OF ALASKA

At a lecture gwen in Constitution Hall in Washington this week, the Rev. Bernard Hubbard gave an ac- curate picture of Alaska as it is. The Glacier Priest, as he is gener- ally known, did much to dispel the idea so many people have that the Territory is an icy barren land and told of the modern cities, the pro- ducing farms, the industries and the natural resources that are really representative. In speaking of the colony at Palmer. he said that many unfounded rumors have drifted back to the States about the project, but that "the land is good enough for the people if the people are good enough for the land" The lecture was illustrated with sound pictures.
 The Rev. Hubbard is planning to spend a winter on King Island, in the Boring Strait, to record on film the customs and language. of the native people He intends to take a 75-foot boat that is now under con- struction. The boat is being made of stainless steel and will have. sheer welded seams so that instead of being crushed in the ice it will be forced up on top The diesel engines to power the boat are designed tc run on seal or other animal oils should the supply of diesel fuel be exhausted

wise strike on the West coast. There was. some testimony to the effect that some of the seamen who had accepted the books were severely beaten up by those opposed to ac- ceptance. An endeavor is being made to find some solution that will be satisfactory to all seamen and it seems likely that some such result may be reached. At the present time the Committee is still consid- ering the matter but expects to ar rive at a decision soon.

the ship. At the time of the pas sage of the Act the continuous dis charge books were recommended strongly by the representatives of the Seamens Unions and the Con- mittees and Congress acted in ac- cordance with the advice thus re- ceived.
 Discharge Books
 The continuous discharge books have been generally accepted by the seamen on the Atlantic coast, with the exception of some of those en- gagged in the recent outlaw strike, and more than 55 ,000 have been is- sued and voluntarily received. On the Pacific coast, however, the Sea- mems Union refused to accept the books, claiming they could be used for blacklist purposes for the rea- son that if a seaman was ashore during strike no entry whatever could be made in the book. The authorized representatives of the Atlantic coast seamen ridiculed this claim and said that if the owners wished to maintain a blacklist there were much more effective ways of doing it than by anything that could be shown on continuous discharge book. However, the Pacific coast seamen insisted they would not ac- cept the books and in several cases secured preliminary injunctions for bidding the enforcing of that part of the Act relating to the books. Threats were made that they would not accept the books under any cir- cumstances which would, under the provisions of the law, result in ty- ing up ships and in another coast

HOME OWNERS LOAN ACT

Delegate Dimond on March 6 in- troduced in the House a bill to amend the Federal Home Owners Loan Act with respect to the Ter ritory of Alaska.
 The Act makes provision for the organization of Federal savings and loan associations and recently one such association, the Alaska Fed eral Savings and Loan Association of Juneau, was organized in the Territory of Alaska. its home office being located at Juneau. The Act provides that any such organization may lend it's funds only upon the security of its shares or on the se- curity of first liens upon homes or combination of homes and business property within fifty miles of its home office. This limitation is en- tirely satisfactory in thickly set tied communities but is deemed un- suitable for Alaska since, after care ful canvass, it has not been found possible to organize more than one such association in the Territory Accordingly, the amendment now proposed by the Delegates bill will permit such an association, within the discretion of the Home Loan Bank Board, to loan money upon the security of homes and business anywhere in Alaska.
