WHAT IS THE MATTER?
When one reads of tne many oil
permits that have been granted to
Alaskans, of the pians that are be
ing made for the establishment of
*arge pulp and paper mills on the
edge of Alaska forests, of the act
ivity in coal mining wherever coal
is available conveniently and in
quantity, of the revival of the fish
ing industry along the Alaska coast,
of the promise of early development
of ore bodies located within the
last year and of increased activity
among the owners of placer deposits
in various sections of the Territory
—when one reads of these things.1
one is inclined to wonder if it is
really true, as has been proclaimed
by self-appointed -pokesmen for Al
aska. that the Northern country is;
sroing to the dogs because of the
adoption of a policy of conservation
by the federal government during
the Roosevelt administration. ‘'There
will be no development”, they shout,
‘until the resources of the Terri-^
tory are unlocked”. And even as
they shout, new development is tak
ing form, along solid permanent'
lines.
“Too much red tape and too many
federal bureaus”, is another cry,
and Alaskans are ready to admit (
that there is and there are. It is
Inconvenient and very often exas
perating trying to do business with
bureau upstarts thousands of miles
away, and overlapping authority is
a constant source of annoyance to
Northerners. But The News has not
yet heard of any one quitting Alaska
on that account, and it is not a
matter of record that the bureau
crats are interfering to any great
extent with migration to Alaska.
If people and capital have been
frightened away, it is the pen
picturing of conditions that has done
it rather than the conditions them
selves.
The restraints complained of have
not interfered in the least with the
copper operations of the Guggen
rseims in Alaska; with the gold
quartz operations of the Treadwells;
with the exploitation of the shallow
placers of Seward Peninsula and
the deeper diggings of the Ii.teriwr
camps; and not even wrrh the ruth
less attacks on the Alaska fisheries,
which are being rapidly depleted be
cause of too little conservation
rather that; too much.
The News does not believe the
federal government can speed the
development of Alaska by fooling
with existing methods of administra
tion. Centralized and simplified ad
ministration will help, no doubt,
but first of all Alaska must have
lowered transportation costs. That,
in the opinion of The News, is the
key to the whole Alaska situatioi
JANUARY SCHOOL REPORT
FORWARDED TO JUNEAU
The report of Franklin K Lane
School for the school month of Jan
uary, which has just been forwarded
t the Commissioner of Education
at Juneau, is no better than :he one
sent in for December, according to
Superintendent A. B Phillips. It
, will be noticed, he points out. that
there were eight tardy cases this
month, most of which are unex
cused. The superintendent express
. es the hope that the month of Feb
ruary will show much improvement
, over the month just closed.
This can only be accomplished,
he says, by co-operation of the
parents and teachers. The teachers
1 are willing at any time to explain
to parents the need for regular at
tendance.
