 ARE ENDORSED BY JUNEAU C. c.
Measures Propose Naval Station in Alaska and
 Further Pulp Industry

Endorsement of the Dimond bills, one to establish a naval station in Alaska and the other to put up further barriers against importation of pulp products, was voted by the Juneau Chamber of Commerce at its luncheon this noon in the Ter minal Cafe. A bill new in the Leg islature proposing the establishment of assay offices in Alaska under the Department of Mines, was touched upon briefly by Allen Shattuck of the legislative committee and that committee was instructed to bring in a report at next weeks meeting.
 Guests of the Chamber were Ar chic w. Shiels, President of Pa cific American Fisheries, F. G. Han- ford of Wrangell and Capt. Allen Fulmer of the Evelyn Berg of the Alaska Transportation Company.
 MT. Hanford told the Chamber of the dredging work which had been done in Wrangell harbor, but declared that billings and floats had been taken out during the dredg- ing and now the city was suffer ing for lack of facilities to berth the boats. He said that $500 had been expended by the city in this connection but that now funds were exhausted. Wrangell, MT Hanford said, appreciates the dredging work but also must do something about the needed facilities.
 The speaker complimented the Canadian Pacific for the boat ser vice given Wrangell during the re- cent maritime strike.
 Capt. Fulmer stated that his company was not daunted by the recent loss of the zapora but that it was determined to carry on with service for Alaska. The results ot the past year have been hopeful he explained, and shortly the com pany would have an announcemnt outlining it's future program. S. A Perkins, of Tacoma, head of the firm, Capt Fulmer explained, had expressed the determination to con-

Some of these herbs have been

their medical, aromatic, and culinary
qualities.
"Most of our herbs found their way

UTILITIES DEMANDS
UNION BUS STATION
N.c-T-- 3 - ~
r. o. Self Says State Board Will In
SiSt on COnvenienceS
For the Public.
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
I'm the Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, july 28-There has been no
change in the policy of the State 'Uti-
lities Commission with regard to it's
insistance that motor bus transror-
tation companies maintain union bus
stations wherever more than one line
operates through city or town, r. o.
Self, in charge of bus transportation
for the commission, said today. AS
result no bus lines operating in North
carolina will be permitted to build
separate bus stations unless they will
become union bus stations, Self said.
During recent months, largely as
the result of agitation for new bus
stations in Charlotte, here in Raleigh
and some other places, the idea has
gotten out that the Utilities Commits
sion is going to recede from the posi-
ton it has held from the first, requir-
ing bus companies to maintain union
bus stations" Self said. But the COM
mission is more convinced than ever
that both the travelling public, and the
bus companies as well, are much bet
ter off with union stations than with
separate stations, although one or
two bus companies do not think so.
AS result, we don OF intend to per-
nit the building of any new bus sta
tons unless they are union stations
that can be used by all of the bus
lines coming into the city in which it
is located. In fact, one reason North
Carolina is conceded to have as good
if not better bus service than any
State in the country is due to the fact
that from the very first the Utilities
Commission has insised upon union
bus stations, the maintenance of reg
ular schedules, the publication of
rates and interchangeable tickets"
BY insisting upon union bus stations
the travelling public is saved the both
err and expense of having to take taxis
or buses from one bus station to an
other, while these stations also re-
duce the overhead of the bus COM
panies, Self pointed out. Some of the
bus companies which at first bitterly.
fought the union station policy now
are enthusiastic for it and admit that
it has been the salvation of a good
many bus lines. Self said

BETTER GINNING is.
SAVING ON COTTON

College Station Raleigh, July 28.-
Improved methods of ginning have
increased the value of the lint cotton
as much as $3.50 bale in tests con-
Quoted by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture.
These better practices include the
artificial drying of green, damp, or
wet cotton before ginning; keeping
gin saws and brushes in good con-
dition; cleaning trashy cotton; and
"loose seed roll ginning" said ]. C.
Ferguson, extension cotton gin spe-
cialist at State College.
In the tests, he continued, the av-
erage value of green and damp short
staple cotton was increased 70 cents
a bale by artificial drying, while the
value of long staple lint was increas-
ed $3.50 bale.
The cleaning Of trashy cotton made
a difference of 81 a bale in the sale
value in many instances, Ferguson
added.

like all similar projects in the West,
is subject to repayment to the Federal
Government for every cent Of money
invested by the Government in it. We
of the West make no complaint over
the fact that in our great conservation

repayment. We do not ask that the
Government should make the same
demands upon the people OF the East
and the Middle West in their projects
of flood control and water conserva-
ton. We do, however, most urgently
present our view that all of the prob

give toward the conservation problems
of the East and the South and the
Middle West.
There is not and there cannot be
successful solution of these problems
so long as We insist In remaining
provincial. Our people acquired one
Of the richest areas in the world.
That acquisition placed upon US the
responsibility which it places upon
every civilized people to so use, de-
velop and preserve the areas natural
resources that as result OF their use,
development and preservation civili-
zation's permanent progress may best
be served. The responsibility for the

upon the Federal Government. The
problem is q national one and the

Is to keep faith with civilization, it's
Government must fulfill that obliga-
ton in order that these resources may
be handed down from one generation
to another not merely undiminished,
but strengthened and preserved.
Remembering the quotation from
the National Resources Board, which
read at the outset, and realizing
that our very institution Of Govern
ment itself depends for its existence
and permsnence upon the fulfillment
of this obligation, there comes to my
mind the concluding words Of Story
in his commentaries, which quote:
The future is that which may we'll
awaken the most earnest solicitude,
both for the virtue and the perma-
nence OF our Republic. The fate OF
other republics-their rise, their prog
ress, their decline and their fall-are
written but too legibly on the pages
of history, il indeed they we're not
continually before us in the startling
fragments OF their ruins. They have
perished, and perished by their own
hands. Prosperity has enervated
them, corruption has debased them
and venal populace has consum-
mated their destruction. Such
are the melancholy lessons OF the
past history Of republics down to our
own"
We have paused today to pay CRATE
ful tribute to the Nations military
heroes. May I ask you to remember
that no military force has ever
wreaked more destructive or devastat-
ing ruin than that which NAV be

Reason for Market.
All of this market has been made
possible because we in the West have
pushed on in our determination that
at least to the extent of our reclama-
ton and irrigation work we would
make proper use and development of
the natural resources with which We
were endowed.
There is another reason why the
people of the East should be interested
in the development of these projects;
that is the fact that on the projects
themselves a very large percentage of
the money at once returns to the East
for the purchase of materials and
supplies. We are building in the State
of Washington great dam at the
Grand Coulee, which will develop
electrical power which can be sold to
our people cheaply. When, in the
course of years. it is completed, it will
make possible the cultivation of many
thousands of acres of land which will
be available for use by our Nations
increased population. Those who COM
plain because of the money being ex-
pended upon it should realize that
over SO per cent of the money being
spent upon the Grand Coulee dam
never reaches the State of Washington.
It is expended in the East, the Mid
west and the South for the materials
and machinery and equipment which
go. into that structure. OF the re-
mainder, which is paid to local labor,
% per cent is expended for foodstuffs
and clothing which come from east
OF the Mississippi River. I only wish
that those people in the State Of
Michigan who might feel inclined to
criticize the expenditure upon this
and similar projects could visit the
