Referring: to the opposition to the
development board plan, »ry recent
ly expressed by the head of the
forestry bureau. the Anchorage
Times makes the following criticism
of his activities, editorially:
“Chief Forester W. C. Greeley,
through the medium of the Forestry
Magazine, which is apparently the
propoganda medium of the forestry
bureaucrats. suggests that Alaska be
allowed to continue as she is until
ready for statehood. However, Mr.
Greeley fails to designate a time
when such a condition might be
looked for. If Alaska is to await
the time when she can develop state
hood under the present bureaucratic
system, then there is little likeli
hood that the present generation
will live to see the day when her
senators and representatives will sit
in Washington.
"It is quite natural that Mr.
Greeley, in consonance with the
propoganda bureau at Jur.eau. whose
functions appear to be to mould
public opinion against irhe only
measure ever evolved to aid Alaska
should be cut off from financial aid.
The old slogan of centralization of
power under the secretary of the
interior has become threadbare and
something new must take :ts place.
"Like the platitudinous chorus
that has assailed the ears of Alas
kans for the last dozen years, Mr.
Greeley’s pronouncement upon the
agricultural and other resources be
comes racous in consAc&nee of the
reams o£ this sort of bosh that has
emanated from those who would
'do something for Alaska.'
“The public may expect this sort
of propoganda from now until the
consolidation bill is disposed of. and
should not take Mr. Greeley too
seriously. The bureaucrats have a
right to fight for their meal ticket
the same as anyone else, and they
have a coterie of disappointed office
seekers scattered throughout the ter
ritory working to defeat all effort
at improvement."
In this connection, it is of interest
to note that Mr Greeley never
visited the territory until there had
arisen a demand for release from
questionable control, nor was there
serious effort made by bureau chiefs
to aid Alaska until the *hrcat of
reform in government loomed om;
nously.
R. S. Donaldson, manager of the
I Healy River Coal Corporation, ar
rived in town on Sundav on a brief
business visit.
Jim Dzukoff returned to Nenrma
on Sunday from a holiday trip to
Anchorage. He expresses a prefer
ence for the Interior.
Harry Abercrombie, who went to
Anchorage recently with a railroad
patient in his care, returned to
i town on the Sunday train.
Miss Alta Russel! was a returning
passenger on the Sunday train from
the coast. She spent the holidays
with relatives in Anchorage.
Dr. J. R. Bowen returned to
Nenana on Sunday from a b:ief
business trip to Fairbanks.
A1 Pauli, freight clerk at McKin

COLO SUPPLY SHRINKS
BUENOS AIRES. Jan. 10—Not
' withstanding the legal prohibition
against the exportation of gold from
Argentina, the visible supply has
diminished since the first of last
year by approximately eight millior
dollars. The conclusion among bank
ers is that it has been smuggled out
! of the country and that the destina
, tion of most of it was the United
States. Reports concerning this clan
; destine exportation have been made
to Finance Minister Salaberry, who
is understood to have ordered an in-1
vestigation although nothing has,
been made public as to the report, i
Joe O’Conner, of the Terminal,'
is paying a visit to Fairbanks, hav-I
: ing left for the upper town on the i
