• This is the mooted subject of a mill
controversy now raging throughou
tbO territvy. The issue was precipited
last week when Charles' W. Hawkes
worth, superintendent .of the U. S
•bureau of education for. Southeastern
-/Llaska, announced in Wrangell that
the bureau eventually hppes to elimi
nate federal schools in places when
territorial and Nelson schools were 1
operation, with the natives attendlr;
he schools on an even footing wit
/hite children.
In the face of this controversy i'
3 interesting to note that on many o:
aslons Alaskan natives, on gradual
ng from federal or territorial schoo l
have come to Seattle to attend hig!
school. And there has been no protes
on the presence of Alaska natives ir.
Seattle schools. Three Indian youths
graduates of ^the bureau schools ir.
Metil$at2a and Hydaberg, are now
.students of the Ballard High )3choo\
while a pathre girl recently attended
the Vtot Seattle High School and
;BellinjiiAam;Honnal, and is now teach
;ing a school in Alaska.
A correspondent at Juneau said:
11 Almost immediately aftftr the an
nouncement of Supt. Hawkesworth ev
'Oty white father and mother loaded
'the §hotgun and figuratively started
out :f«rthe haunts of Mr. Hawkes
[Worth.” however, it soon appeared
from a statement published here by
Supt- Hawkesworth that the real mar
afrthjbqttomof tU the disturbance is
an Indian lawyer named Paul, who re
at WiWngell and who consider
the self-appointed guardian oi
the Alaska untives.

ial U- S. Coranussiohcr Bruce Mobeiy
has spent seme months in taking testi
mony "at Juneau. Vancouver and other
points. One of the points involved is
the question of the authority exercised
by Agent Lowle, the Juneau agent of

Lowle was the directing head of comp
any affairs in Alaska, and he directed
Captain Locke to keep the passengers
aboard the Sophia until arrival Of the
Canadian relief vessel Princess. Alice.

reindeer industry. Abqut the,time he
was to appear before the senate ap
propriations committee, he/ said, copies
of an Alaska newspaper were received
at Washington containing an editorial
charging the Alaska bureau with enh.

and an increase of $3,000 to the tqin

ed at $90,000, the same as last year.
Gold dredging has declined relat
ively less than other forms of piac
2r mining, partly because some of the
dredgers are working very rich ground
partly because the investments in this
form of industry are so large that
nany companies continue operations
3ven with very small profits. In 1919
here were 28 dredges ^operating in Al
ska, which produced gold worth $1,
000,000; in 1920 there were 22.dredges
>peratedj which prouced gold worth
$1,020,000. The relative efficiency of
gold dredging compared , with other

by the fact that in 1920 about 300 men
