has been making an extensive tour
through Alaska has been brought
vividly before the Eastern reading
! public through published photos of
■ incidents connected with the trip.
; A Washington newspaper the other
day published a large picture of

Now that Chairman Scott Lea
vitt, of Montana, and other mem
bers of the House commitee on In
dian Affairs, visited Alaska during
the present summer, Delegate Wick
ersham has sought to induce Chair
man Lynn J. Frazier. and other
members of the Senate committee
of Indian Affairs to extend their
proposed visit to some of the west
ern states as far as Idaho, the lat
ter part of September, so as to con
fer with the Natives of Southeast
ern Alaska as far north as Juneau.
There is still hope that this may
be accomplished altho there is some
doubt about it, as a recent letter
received from Senator Frazier, now
in North Dakota, says: •
“I appreciate your interest in
the Indians of Alaska and assure
you that I will be glad to do any
thing I can to help. I doubt whether
it will be possible for the sub-com
mittee to make the trip as far
north as Juneau this Fall. I trust,
however, that some legislation will
be enacted by the next session to
help your Indians."

Fur farmers along the Alaska
Railroad are protesting against
Freight Circular No. 45. issued in
1926, which prohibits the shipment
by freight of live valuable fur bear
ig animals. If shipped they must be
sent by express, at an enormous
cost which makes shipment prohi
bitive. It is claimed that no other
railroad in the country makes such
a rule and one trader writes: “When
a rancher is prevented from sell
ing his heeding stock and exchang
ing his breeding stock and exchang
is deprived of considerable part of
just revenues and a means of build
ing up his herd of foxes. Already 18
fur farmers have closed up their
pens and moved, starting again
elsewhere, and this winter more
will move."
Representative Ernest Willard
Gibson, chairman of the House com
mittee on Territories, returned the
1 other day from a four month’s trip
abroad. He was not able to get to
Alaska but did visit Hawaii, Guam,
Phillipines, Hong Kong, China and
Japan. He was particularly interest
ed in the work done in those
countries over which the United
States has jurisdiction, and says:
“Hawaii has made more progress
in material prosperity in the devel
opment of governmental activities
and facilities during the past 30
years than any other part of the
Nation. It has an efficient govern
ment. It is the melting pot of the
Pacific. Here too, the native Hawai
ian and the citizen of alien ex
I traction are thoroughly loyal. The

Legislature has passed a concurrent
resolution asking for statehood. The
committee on Territories of the
House will give the proponents an
opportunity to be heard if a bill
providing for admission as a State
is introduced. I am convinced that
' supervision of the administration
of all territorial and insular pos
sessor should be consolidated in
one executive department. At the
i present time, the supervision is
scattered through various offices,
the administration hindered by
beauracracy, red tape multiplied. A
consolidated bill will be introduced
at the next session.”
