SULZER WORKING
WASHINGTON, June 10.—To obtain
more than $100,000 for road building
in Alaska is the work that is re
ceving as much, if not more, attention
from Hon. Ghas. A. Sulzer, delegate
from Alaska, than any of the matters
In which he is interested. The army
bill, which is now being considered
by the military affairs committee,
provides for an appropriation of $100,
000 for maintenance of roads in Alas
ka, and indications are that the bill
will soon be reported to the House.
At this time, there appears little
chance of having the appropriation
increased in the House, as the bill
was drawn by the administration lead
ers, in accordance with the estimates
of the department. The delegate,
however, has high hopes of having
the amount increased materially when
the matter comes up in the senate.
In 1017, when the war appropria
tion. including the estimate for road
work in Alaska, was up for consider
ation. the section relative to road con
struction, was stricken by the house,
on a point of order. After a great
deal of work, in an uphill fight, Mr.
Sulzer finally had it restored by the
senate and it went through, the money
became available, and the greater part
of It has already been spent in the
building and maintenance of roads. in
the territory. o
This year, owing to conditions
friends of Alaska believe that bettei
results may he obtained by not at
tempting to change the $100,000 item
in the house. Tt might, as last year,
he thrown out on a point of order
And by letting it get to the senate
there will be a fair chance of having
the appropriation increased. There
seems little doubt that the $100,000
appropriation will go through the
house without serious opposition, and
if the amount is increased in the sen
ate its chances of final passage are
considered good.
Delegate Sulzer knows that $100,
000 is not nearly sufficient for the
road work that should be done, and
in this view he is indorsed by the
war department. Letters received by
Mr. Sulzer almost daily show the need
of a vastly greater amount, and the
delegate proposes to present the ar
guments put forth in these communi
cations, together with bis own, with
all the force possible, in the hope of
proving to congress the positive need
of more money.
The road appropriation, in amount,
is insignificant in comparison with
“the great sums saked in other portions
of the bill for carrying on the war,
so that it is impossible for Delegate
Sulzer to hurry action on the meas
ure. He must bide his time and work
industriously for the best results ob
tainable when the opportune moment
arrives. In the meantime ho is mus
tering his forces for the drive whereby
he hopes to obtain his objective—
an increase. And notwithstanding
what appears to be an insurmount
able barrier, he is optimistic as to
the final outcome.
MftLONEY WILL RESIGN
AFTER REACHING NOME
William Maloney, territorial mining
inspector, left Juneau on May 29 en
route to Nome, via Seattle, and will
forward his resignation to Governor
Riggs from that place, according to a
statement made by Maloney to the
Empire.
"I have papers of considerable value
in the Nome office, together with a
great many records which belong to
the territory,” he said. ‘‘I will have
to send these into Governor Riggs be
fore I quit. I shall forward my resig
nation from Nome, together with the
records now there.”
Mr. Maloney did not make a state
ment as to his future plans, but it
is understood that he will engage in
mining at Nome during the present
summer, at least.
