ALASKA AND THE NEW BILL
The attitude of the Juneau Com
mercial Association on the question
of consolidation of control of
Alaskan affairs, as provided in the
New bill, now under consideration
before th senate committee on ter
ritories. is made plain in the follow
ing committee report, adopted by
the association during the past
month:
Comes now your committee here
tofore appointed to make a report
on the proposed Congressional bill
commonly known as the New Bill,
and respectfully reports:
That your committee firmly be
lieves in the denationalization of
the resources of Alaska and in the
placing of said resources in the
hands of the people of Alaska for|
administration through its own pro
perly selected executive and legis
lative officials and, pending that ac
tion. in the co-ordination of the
various Federal departments and
bureaus now functioning in the in
ternal affairs of the Territory, with
a responsible head thereto, consist
preferablv of a board, sitting in
Alaska, with bona fide Alaskans
constituting the personnel of such
board, and with a right of appeal
direct to the secretary of the re
spective Federal department in which
•the specific original subject-matter
may lie;
But your committee does not con
sider that, without such co-ordina
tion and local Alaskan head, ;t
would be advisable to transfer the
Forest Service and the Water Power
Commission from the departments
of which they are now a part to
some other department which has
no particular machinery for the op
eration of the functions of those
particular bureaus, and particularly
for the reason, that the Alaska Dis
trict of each of those bureaus now
forms an integral part of the re
spective bureau operating as a whole
throughout the United States, and
is in a position to benefit by the ex
perience. investigations and assist
ance of the whole of said bureau,
whereas a transfer to another de
partment would deprive it of those
benefits, and the same could then
only be obtained indirectly, from
which the Territory, in our judgment ‘
would suffer pending the time the
department to which such bureau
is assigned has built up an organ
ization and machinery and gained
an experience equal to that now at
the command of the Alaska district
of these respective bureaus as at
present constituted.
Your committee further believes
it would be inadvisable to transfer
the Alaska Road Commission to an
other department or to interfere
with it a.- it is at present organized,
for the reason tha* said Commission
is a* present so constituted as to
obtain the s-’rvnes of highly skilled
and experienced road builder-, who
',re iii a position to pron. not only
by ’heir own experience, but also
by the experien-e of their prede
cessors on the Commission during
the past twenty years, of which ad
vantages the territory would be de
prived, in our judgment, by trans
ferring the Commission and its work
to a department which has had no
experience in road building in the
territory, and that such transfer
would undoubtedly militate against
the carrying on of the present high
ly satisfactory work of the Commis
sion.
Your committee further is of the
opinion that no detriment would re
sult to the territory by the provis
ions of the bill authorizing the leas
ing of the Government railroad as
well as of the U. S. Shipping Board
vessels to private individuals or
corporations for operating in the
Territory, its adjacent waters, and
to and from noncontiguous ports
of the United States, provided, of
course, that such leases were made
under regulations so conditioned a
to insure proper operation, reason
able rates, and service sufficien to
meet present and future needs of
the territory and its people; further,
that the jurisdiction of the United
States Interstate Commerce Com
miisson should be extended to the
operation of such railroad and ves
sels; but your committee, while de
ploring the service which is now
and has been in the past rendered
by the privately operated steamship
lines, and which service your com- ,
mitree believes can and should be j
remedied by the operators of those ‘
lines so as to more satisfactorily I
meet the requirements of the ter

ritory as well as to more materially
assist in th development of the ter
ritory, does not consider that the
experience of the U. S. Shipping
Board in the operation of Govern
ment-owned steamship lines is such
as to warrant the experiment of
such a line in or to and from the
territory with the perhaps conse
quent diminution of the present
service, unsatisfactory as it is, of
privately operated vessels.
The report was signed by R. E.
Robertson, W. S. Pullen and Henry
Roden.
LOCAL MOOSE ARE URGED
TO ATTEND MEET MONDAY
The regular bi-monthly meeting
of Fairbanks Lodge. No. 1193.
Loyal Order of Moose, will be held
at Moose hall on Monday night, at
the usual hour.
All members of the local organ
ization are particularly urged to be
present, in view of the fact that
this will be the last meeting before
Thanksgiving, when the big J. -L
Davis class will be initiated into the
mysteries of the order. Visiting
Moose are also cordially invited to
be present at the meeting.
With the initiation of big classes
on Thanksgiving Day in all estab
lished Moose lodges throughout the
world, the total membership of the
order will be increased by at least
half a million. The great internation
al drive for new members was be
gun September 1 as a compliment
to and in honor of James J. Davis,
director general of the order and
Secretary of Labor in President
Harding’s cabinet. It is expected
that the number of candidates the
Moose are out to capture will great
ly exceed the number sought, in
which event the Loyal Order of
Moose, after Thanksgiving Day, will
be the strongest and most influential
fraternal order in the world.

for you. Leave orders at the Ter
