300 AMATEURS; RADIO
 MEN, 800; COM. STATIONS

The old mukluk telegraph had its day-and it was good in its Way-but Alaska of 1888, rapidly modernizing, uses more radio telegraph and radiophones than any other region under the Am erican flag.
 Spanning vast distances and linking lonely outposts with pop ulation centers, radio helps make one big family of Alaskans.
 There are more than 500 com mercial stations, radiophone and photograph, and 300 amateur stations in Alaska, Stacy w. Nor man, inspector for the Federal Communications CommiS i O n, said in Fairbanks. These totals include the aeronautical stations but do not include the stations of the Alaska Communications Sy- stem of the Signal Corps.
 On his first trip in the Interior. MT. Norman came to Fairbanks recently, then went to the &c., ward Peninsula, Kotzebue Sound and Norton Sound to inspect ra dio stations. He called on radio operators at Nome, Kotzebue, Deering, Candle, Koyuk, Unala- kleet, and Ungalik before re- turning to Fairbanks.
 Besides the routine inspection, he helps the radio operators with information on EGG regulations and in strengthening out difficult ies of schedule arrangement and service. He has spent 10 years in the service of the Commission. and his present headquarters are at Juneau.
 In addition to the Signal Corps commercial, aeronautical n d amateur stations in Alaska, there are three other radio broadcast ing establishments: KFQD, An chorage; KINY, Juneau; and KGBU, Ketchikan.
 A fourth may be added to this list in 1889, Fairbanksans hope. A construction permit has been granted by the Federal Commun ications to the Midnight Sun Broadcasting Go. for the estab- lishment of a station in Fair banks, call letters KFAR. Tenta- tive plans call for a transmitter station three miles out of town, and studios on the fourth floor of the Lathrop Building, above the News-Miner and Alaska Miner offices. Fairbanks News-Miner

 Reports prepared by the sever al committees are preliminary in nature and will be made the basis of future studies. From them will be prepared the Coun- cirs report to the Legislature.

Interests not Irreconcilable


 AS 1t IS now construed, the Al aska Planning Council is quali- fled from that angle to assume the task, and is, in fact, pursu- ing the studies begun year ago by the Alaska Resources Com mittee. It would be glad to have the active cooperation of the Ma tional Resources Committee in all of its projects.
 The Council set forth the view that the territorial and national interests are not and should not be, regarded as either antagonis- tic or irreconcilable. Whatever differences exist should not be serious, and could be harmoniz- ed through sincere and friendly cooperation.

ALASKA PLANNING COUNCIL
Juneau, Nov. I. 1888.

Juneau, Nov. !, 1888.
 Orderly development of Al aska's natural resources in ac- cord with tried and accepted methods of true conservation was emphasized as imperative for the future of the Territory by the Alaska Planning Council at its November meeting here.
 It declared that conservation should be aggressively cham pioned, and reservation vigorous ly opposed" In a four-day meet ing, the Council analysed reports from seven Advisory Commit tees and the Executive Staff's Graphical Survey of Territor- ial Administration and of Basic Industries. "
 Discussed Alaska Report
 One of the highights of the meeting was the consideration and discussion of the Report of the Report of the Alaska Re- sources Committee, written last December and made public by the President early this year.
 While the Council realizes the value of this report, and express ed it's appreciation by resolution, it has pointed out its incomplete ness, and is now urging the Ma tional Resources Committee to re open the Alaska study.
 The Council has informed the National Resources Committee, which sponsored the Report, that it agrees that data on which to

base a broad plan for Alaska's development is too incomplete and that a continuing long-term study is needed. This, too, was the view expressed by the Al aska Resources Committee which among other things said:
 The development of Alaska is longtime problem, and plans will have to change to suit chang ing social conditions. This task, as we have explained, ought to be entrusted to a permanent Al aska planning agency the mem bership of which reflects territor- ial and national interests.

CRITICS APPRA|SE
j. s. TRADE GAINS
Manufacturers Tariff Unit
Says Concession Goods
Kept General Pace.
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. Oct 22.-The National
Association of Manufacturers informed
its members today the optimistic hopes
Of proponents of the administration S
reciprocal trade agreement program
and the pessimistic fears Of its OPP
ponents alike have been unfulfilled.
Its Tariff Committee. headed by
H. l., Derby. president Of the Ameri-
can Cyanamid & Chemical Corp, New
York, outlined three major conclu-
sions from a study Of the country's
foreign trade under the program
launched four years ago. They were:
l. The dollar volume Of all imports
on which concessions were made did
not increase any faster than the dol
lar volume Of all dutiable imports.
2. While quantity of all imports in
creased So per cent between 1884 and
1897. the quantity Of items on which
tariff rates were reduced increased
1913 per cent.
3. The value Of all dutiable imports
increased 934 per cent from 1884 to
1887 compared with an increase Of
$50 per cent in value of all exports.
Others Control Volumes.
Foreign countries" said the COM
mittee's report, may have made
tariff concessions equal to ours, but
their quota and exchange control
policies still made it possible to con-
troll volume of trade.
They may have had need for and
wanted our goods and had dollars to
buy; but our cotton loan policy lost
us much foreign market. the drought
reduced volume of products available
for export and our drive to advance
wages and price levels put many of
our products beyond foreign purchas-
ing levels. Even foreign demands for
military materials did not equalize our
greater demand for imports
Discussing objections to the trade
agreements, the report commented:
Methods Of negotiation were dis
turbing. The secrecy was banning.
Refusal to permit final review by
either branch Of Congress indicated
fear that the changes would not
stand the light OF public scrutiny and
discussion"
Tariff Cuts Unjustified.
The committee held the big excess
in merchandise exports accumulated
by the United States the past year in
trade with Europe was not an argu-
ment for more tariff cuts or other ac-
ton to expand imports.
Imports of European origin, it was
suggested. "are, in fact. probably less
than half as large as the volume Of
exports from the United States to
European countries"
European countries" the report ex-
planned purchase large quantities
of foodstuffs and industrial raw ma
terials from the United States and
pay the United States in terms of
foodstuffs and raw materials shipped
to the United States from outlying
colonies and other possessions"

S|T-DOWN CASE
PRESSED BY j. S.
Government Takes Chicago
Strike to Supreme Court
for Decision.
By the Associated Press.

6y INC ASSOCldUCu IIcSS.
The Government carried to the
Supreme Court yesterday its conten-
ton that sit-down strikers discharged
by the Fansteel Metallurgical Corp
were dismissed because of their union
sympathy. not because Of the strike,
and therefore should be reinstated.
Solicitor General Robert H. jack
son and Charles Fahy. general coun-
sci Of the National Labor Relations
Board appealed from a lower court
decision against the boards ruling
that the North Chicago Arm should
reinstate 90 dismissed employees.
In Its decision, the Labor Board
stated that some Of the company's
employees seized two Of its key build
ings on February II, 1887, after the
corporation had refused to bargain
collectively with representatives Of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers Of America.
Contend Court Erred.
The board ordered Fansteel to bar
gain with Amalgamated and to REIN
state the 90 employees. The latter
order was based, board officials said,
on an examiners finding that, since
all employees who participated in the
sit-down were not discharged. the real
reason for the dismissals was CON
tinuing sympathy with the union and
Its activities"
The Government counsel contended
that the Federal Circuit Court at
Chicago, which overruled the boards
decision. erred "in not holding that
all persons who went on strike. be-
cause of Fansteels unfair labor prac-
tices, continued at all times thereafter
to be employees within the meaning
and for the purposes Of the National
Labor Relations Act
This legislation guarantees employees
the right of collective bargaining with
their employers.
The Government also argued that
the board had the power to order
reinstatement of the striking employees
because OF Fansteels unfair labor
practices" and despite any acts OF
violence
Question Of Basic Importance.
The question is of basic impor-
tsnce In the proper administration
Of the National Labor Relations Act"
the petition said
If employe misconduct terminates
their status as employees under the
act, exempts employers from their
duties imposed by the act to refrain
from interfering with, restraining or
coercing their employees and to bar
gain collectively with their representa-
tives, and prevents the board from
issuing remedial orders to correct I'M
fair labor practices, large field in
which the boards activities are of
the most vital Importance are put
beyond the powers intended to be
conferred upon the board by Con-
gress"
The 2-to-1 Circuit Court decision
said 1T cannot be denied that an
employer is warranted in discharging
his employees, and severing that rela-
tionship. when they take and retain
exclusive possession of his property
against his will"
A dissenting opinion contended that
possible illegal acts of the employees
did not excuse unlawful defiance"
of the Labor Board by the corpora
ton.
Whether q review will be granted
by the Supreme Court will be an
nounced in few weeks.
