lie is cordially invited to in
spect the well-appointed class
rooms and gain additional in
formation concerning the school.
Miss Lewis would like to en-
phasizez the fact that specialized
lessons in any particular art
form are not available to chill
dren under six. Educators, eye
specialists, and pediatricians all
advise against printed notes,
strenuous physical exertion on
undeveloped muscles or concen-
trated effort to the point where
the child loses interest. For
children four and FIVE years old
this school offers a very good
course introducing children to
many art forms. This class will
prepare little people for an
easier, more enjoyable relation
ship with the arts a little later.
This department is headed by
Ruth M. Batson whose natural
ease with children encourages
them to express themselves In
beginning rhythmics, dramatic
play, and general art work. This
course is especially recommended
for finding the natural inclina-
lions Of the child and for fos-
tering love of the arts.
The dance and drama depart
ments have added courses for
teen-agers in ballroom dancing
and play-wrfting and acting.

Persons Lynched in 1919

colored landowner near Balm
bridge, Decatur County, Ga.
found dead with a number Of
bullet holes in his body after
an argument with a group OF
white men, who had been fishing
in his pond without permission.
It was reported that sometime
previously Riles' home had been
riddled with buckshots fired from
an automobile.
The states in which lynchings
occurred and the number in each
state are: Georgia, o. Missis-
sippiy |.
The two men jailed in connec-
ton with the lynching of Caleb
Hill, Jr., were later freed for
lack of sufficient evidence to
bring them to trial.
In at least IA instances, lynch
ings were prevented-four in the
North and 10 in the South. One
person escaped from group of
men bent on lynching him by
jumping into a river; in the 10
other instances, officers of the
law gave protection. A total of
at least II persons were thus
saved from mob violence. Of
these, six were white persons
and II were Negroes, Presidnt

statutes, that the proposed state might be able to get title to couple of hundred thousand acres of Alaskan lands. And it seems en- tirely probable, Alaskan lands being what they are, that at least hail of that acreage would not be wortr the taking.
 Despite the fact that it could ac- quire no lands in the National For ests, the new state, under the pre- sent statehood bill, would perhaps come off best, so far as land reve- nues are concerned, in the National Forest areas.
 The state would receive propor- tionate share of the revenues from these forests, amounting to One- ninth of the total. This would be in addition to the revenues presently received by the Territory of Alaska from the National Forests.
 This is very large potential rev. enue, especially if pulp mills arc built in Southeast Alaska. Again however, under present laws. these revenues would be received by the state in theory rather than in dol lars.
 Some three years ago when Indian claims to large portions of Tongass National Forest appeared to be s serious barrier to pulp development Congress passed what is known as the Tongass Timber Sales Act.
 Indian Claims Again
 This act provides that all rev. enues from timber sales in Ton gass National Forest are to be placed in escrow, and to be held in : tact until the Indian claims are disposed of.
 At this writing we do not have pulp mills, but we do have oul forest revenues tied up so that they cannot be touched by the Territory or by the proposed state. The Indian claims could, of course, be settled in the near future, but it appears doubtful that they will be. And Con- gress could repeal the Tongass Tim Der Sales Act. If that were done with the Indian claims unsettled, il is doubtful that we will get pulp development. And if we do not get pulp development, major portion of the potential forest revenues will never materialize.
 Summing up the whole picture Of land revenues for the State oi Alaska proposed by H.R. 331, it is apparent that they would be very small drop in the bucket of financ- ing required to maintain and op- crate that state.
 For many years Alaska's fisheries have provided large portion of the revenues for the operation of the Territory. It has been suggested that under statehood we would receive additional revenues from the Alas kan fur seal herd The status ot these resources under the provisions of H.R. 331 will be discussed in the next of these articles.

ALASKA STATEHOOD
 The Land Granis Provided in H. R. 331
By BOB DeARMOND

A press release from the United States Department of the Interior few months ago stated that the proposed new State of Alaska would receive fifty million acres of land under the enabling bill presently being considered by the US. Sem ate-H.R. 331.~
 The inference was that Alaska would receive this fifty million acres slightly less than fourteen per- cent of the total area-immediately upon admission as state.
 In actual fact, as the bill is writ ten, that fifty million acres, or the greater part of it, is no more than a rosy glow on far distant horizon. It amounts to about halt of the total acreage tied up by Fed eral reservations of one kind ana another, and good part of the fifty million acres might as well be il reservation so far as present title is concerned.
 H.R. 331 grants the new state four sections of land in each township for the support of it's common schools. Since there are 36 sections in each township, this would amount to one-ninth of the total area, o, slightly more than forty million acres. There are some additional sections in the Panama Valley for the support of the University oi Alaska and special grants totaling 2 million acres.
 JOkcr(?) in Land Grants
 Forty million acres of school lands is a great deal of land when ex- pressed in acres but it is, for the present, very small in terms of put ting dollars into Alaska's coffers or, to be exact, into the permanent school fund. An act of Congress approved March 4, 1915, set aside and reserved from sale or settle ment sections 16 and 36 of each township in Alaska, or half of the sections granted to the proposed state by the present bill. For the past 35 years the income from these lands has been covered into a fund known as the permanent school fund for the support of the common schools.
 The income from these lands dur ing a period of 32 years, up until June 30, 1947, amounted to approxi- mately S6.00O according to state ment made to Congressional com mittee by the Territorial Commis- sioner of Education. The average would be something under S200 a year.
 The joker in the land grants pro- 'vided by HR. 331 is that they arc subject to the provisions of certain United States statutes. When strip ped of lengthy and involved legal language, these statutes provide that the new state could not actually acquire the lands until it has been surveyed and laid out into town- ships
 This surveying would not be done by the new state, which is in one
