It is estimated thepe are 594, GOO reindeer in Alaska today. according to J. Sidney Rood, acting general superintendent, of which number 204,000 animals were counted on the West Coast between Alaska Pen insula and Point Barrow. During the last year the natives used more than 6.O0o,000 pounds of reindeer meat and by-pr0ducts, and also 32,- 900 skins. 4 total Of So, ,S36 unm2El1. ed fawns and mavericks were mark ed to ownership last year, which equals the total number Of reindeer in Alaska iu 1917
 There are more than 30 reindeer associations in which are 3,6S9 share holders. It is estimated that 1000 natives get direct benefit from rsjn- desrs. There is a total of 57 herds.

Recalls AIaska's Purchase

Friday, April 2 was Alaska's 10th birthday as Q possession of the Uni ted States. IL was on March 30, 1867 at four o'clock in the morning that Secretary Of State William Il. Sew ard and Baron de Stoeckl of Mos COW signed the treaty to purchase Alaska from the Russians for two cents an acre. Even then It was not certain that Alaska would come un- der the protection of the United States as considerable opposition was met in getting the S7,200,000 item in the appropriations bill and 1t was largely due 10 Q masserful address before the senate by Sen. Charles Sumner. that the money was finally obtained which bound the terms of the treaty The unpOpulsrity of the purchase was illustrated in many ways, one Of the most amusing being the dispute that arose between Rus sis and the United States that sum ner over which country should pay cable tolls between the two. The bill only amounted 10 few hundred dol lars but the United States thought 1t had been "stung" hard enough ny putting out the STOOD 900. Further persuasion by proponents of the plan finally decided the United States government to foot the bill. The formal transfer of Alaska to the United States took place on October 18, the same year, and that day is now known as Alaska Day." Alas ka's exports to the United Skates from its natural resources since the treaty was signed 70 years ago have amounted to S1, 250, ,0o0 900.

STATE HOUR LAW
IS SPED TO TEST
Attorney General Margiotti
Seeks Pennsylvania High
.-.. Court Ruling.
Hy the Associated Press.

BIZ the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. l0.-The
vigorous battle over Pennsylvania s
sidetracked 44-hour law was carried
today to the State Supreme Court by
Attorney General Charles ]. Mar
giotti.
Mr.. Marglotti, in a statement, said
he questioned the validity of the bill
before it was introduced in the 1887
Legislature. Ralph M Bashore, sec
retary of labor and industry, con-
tends, however, the act is sound.
The controversy, stirred by protests
from industries and municipalities
over the shorter work week and a
suit to restrain the State from en-
forcing the law, came to a head yes
terday
Margiotti filed an answer in the
Dauphin County Court to the action
brought by Holgate Bros Manufac-
turing Co. of Kane, seeking an in
junction.
He contended, as attorney general
that the act is a lawful exercise of
the States police power, and that it
does not delegate unlawful powers. as
charged by the Kane wood interests
Then he moved for immediate re-
moval of the case from the lower
court to the Supreme Court. He ex-
planned:
In this way We hope to have q
= final decision before January 3, the
date Bashore has set for enforcement
of the act"
Mr.. Margiotti said if the decision
has not been, handed down by Jan.
uary 3 the State can postpone en-.
forcement further.
Mr.. Margiotti explained that be
fore the bill was introduced in ths
Legislature l expressed the opinion
Evening star., 1937-12-10

that such legislation was of question:
able constitutionality
II still doubt it's constitutionality.
However, now that suit to test its
validity has been instituted in the
courts, it is my duty as attorney gen.
eraly to defend the constitutionality
of the act. regardless of my personal
legal opinion"
