President and Hopkin!
Discuss Likely Size
OF Relief Budget
Roosevelt Will Confer
Again With BuIIitt
On Foreign Affairs

~ the Associated Press.
WARM SPRINGS, Ga, Dec. a.
President Roosevelt, rounding out
his program for the new Congress,
today continued exploration of re-
lief needs with w. P. A. Admins
traitor Harry l.. Hopkins on the
opposite side of the conference table.
Mr.. Hopkins conferred briefly with
the President at the Little White
House late yesterday but was in
vited back today for further talk.
One of the questions confronting
the President and the w. P. A. Is the
effect reported increased employ
ment in private industry will have
on bulging Federal relief rolls once
unemployment catches up with in
dustrial production gains.
Basis for Future Needs.
When this can be determined
along with normal winter hikes in
relief costs, the Chief Executive and
his relief director will be enabled
to estimate appropriation require
ments for the last four months OF
the current fiscal year and the next
full fiscal period.
The appropriation for the first
eight months of this fiscal year was
SLABS 100000. The President has
said this must last until March J.,
1899.
Mr. Roosevelt had opportunity to-
day also for another talk with his
Ambassador to France, William C..
Bullitt, who interrupted Bahamas
vacation to come here late yester-
day.
He also saved part of today for a
conference on Georgia State affairs
with Gov. E. D. Rivers, Lawrence S.
Camp, Federal district attorney at
Atlanta, and James L. Gillis, Geor-
gia Democratic State chairman.
To Confer on Georgia Goals.
Mr.. Camp was defeated in the
September Democratic senatorial
primary by Senator Walter F.
George, who was opposed by the
President.
Aside from political phases, Gov.
Rivers was expected to advise the
President of State legislative plans
to set up machinery whereby Geor-
gia may participate legally with
other States in Federal public works
funds.
At a press conference last week
the President said Georgia was the
only State not cooperating with
P. w. A. and that it would not receive
another cent of public works money
until it had qualified legally to bor-
row.

nesday provoked the international
situation and led Foreign Minister
Bonnet last night to request 'ex-
plations' of Italian intentions to-
ward Tunisia, Djibouti and Corsica.
The Fascist press continued the
matter, and French official quarters
believed it marked the beginning of
a German and Italian campaign to
compensate Italy in the Mediter-
ranean for Fascist support when the
Nazis got Austria and part of
Czechoslovakia.

Britain agreed to the partition of

manding the same right for Italians

Sir Kingsley Wood, British air
minister, on a visit to Paris this
morning to discuss military aviation
was expected also to talk with Pre-
mier Daladier about the Italian
African situation.
The Tunisian protectorate long
has been a stumbling block in
French-Itallan relations.
It was recalled that Gen. Marie
Gustave Gamelin, chief of the ma
tional defense staff. made an Arm
istice Day inspection of Tunisian
Notifications at the Italian Libya
border although by custom he
should have reviewed the army
parade in Paris.
And just year ago M. Daladier.
defense minister but not then Pre-
mier, told Parliament that Tunisia
was endangered by Italy.
Despite his easy victory over Ia
bor's general strike and although
industrialists held the new SYM
pathy strike movement lacked gen.
eral momentum, it seemed apparent
that the Premier's troubles at home
were just beginning.
His discharge of the leaders and
many of their followers sent wave
of anger over labor, which had
hoped for a gesture of "appease-
ment."

and revenge seemed to have carried

$4,000 IN 1910

In estimates the present population OF the Unit
ed States and its possessions the Bureau OF the Cen
sus places Aaskas population at 627O0 only 1892
more than the actual Of 1880 which gave the
Territory 59278.
AS matter of record Aaskas increase in popu-
laton from 1920 to 1880 4242 or ~ percent, and
there is no reason to believe that the increase during
the 1O-year period which ends in 1910 will be any
less In fact there are many indications that it will
be substantially more.
When the census is taken next year Tor the Of
fetal 1910 count Alaska likely to show popu-
aton of around 10000 than it is 62700 1t safe to
predict every in the Territory of any size
will show marked increase. Juneau in the census
of 1890 had a total of 4,043 persons.
Juneau today is around $500 and the actual tally
taken next year may well show that amount.
Ketchikan which had 3796 in 1880, has made sub
stantal gains Fairbanks with 2l0l in the last
census has made a big gain and may double that
mark Anchorage with its total of 2277 in 1880 is
another city which has made great strides. In add-
ton 10 these places, many other communities have
multiplied in population. 1t cannot be overlooked
that there are around 600 new people in the Mata-
nilska Valley.
The official count which starts next October,
and in the Arctic region early in the spring very likely
will give Alaska its largest permanent population
figure in its history. and the person who predicts
10000 isn't going to be very far off.

Stories from Rio suggest that the

Brazil has a fairly stable navy. 1t

Back in the days of Presidents
Harding and Coolidge, when we were
preaching international disarmament,
we had a naval Emission" at Rio
teaching the Brazilians how to i'm

For instance they equipped Brazil
Britains.
1t is mei-obsolete now of course
and yet a ponderable influence in
Latin American waters.
Good Business?
To be sure, the Brazilian navy build
ing program did do one good turn to
the u. S.
It provided lot of work for North
American armament constructors.
That is why we sent that naval
mission to Rio. Our argument was
that Britain would get that business
if we did not grab it.
