Secretary Believes Terri tory's Population Will

 This is the opinion of E. w Griffin, Secretary of Alaska, who returned to his office here yester- day on the Mount Mckinley after Ia several weeks trip to the Vest ward and Interior points.
 "All towns are showing a big in- crease in population, the Secretary said, "and 80,00O is just not enough when you start figuring the popu- lation of Alaska right now.
 The mining industry is just get ting started. Two years from now it will show 30 per cent increase if not 100 per cent, and that goes for lodes as well as placers. Not withstanding that we are not get ting the Federal aid for roads trails and airfield that we need, we are making progress, but not rap idly enough However, every one is enthused about the outlook every where I visited.
 Mining properties throughout the Interior region are showing up well in ore bodies as well as values and now the geologists find that the veins show depth with the outlook promising for years to come"
 It was the first trip Secretary Griffin has made into the Interior in 2l years and he reported finding astounding changes and the pleas ure of meeting countless old friends and acquaintances. For years, MT Griffin headed the North American Trading and Transportation Com pany in the Territory and was in- terested in many other enterprises Few men are as well known from Bristol Bay to the Canadian bound ary and from Barrow to Dixon l Entrance Asked about some of his friends, the Secretary quietly smil- ed, T just didn't know I knew SC many people,
