ing rates may be lowered by this means. The answer to your pro- posal is this
 1. To ignore inefficiencies would be ridiculous as subsidies for a sloppy operation cannot last for ever
 ?. For Territorial officials to have to fight with Congress every year for appropriations to support ship operators on a cost-plus ba- sis would be ludicrous.
 3. Ii shipping were thrown open to Canadian vessels, we could get along without a subsidy. There fore, if a greater subsidy is nec- essary for the Seattle carriers to lower rates and still stay in busi- ness, it would be subsidy for said merchant marine as an in- strument of Federal policy and would not be subsidy properly chargeable to the development of Alaska
 4. If your paper would adopt an Alaska viewpoint for change instead of constantly trying to discredit Alaskas "eaAsr-beaver" officials, it would be a big help.
 Very truly yours,
 RALPH J. RIVERS,
 Attorney General.
