A LESSON FOR FRANCE.
France has made large loans to the Turkish government. Now
the Kemaliats announce that all contracts made by the Sultan since March,
1920 are null and void. The Turks are doing a lititle cancelling on their
own account. “French financial circles are painfully surprised,” ac
cording to reports from abroad. The French are finding that it makes
a lot of difference whose ox is gored. Leading Frenchmen publicly de
clare that the three and a half billion dollars owed the United States
can never be paid unless through the receipt of German reparations; in
other words they repudiate the French debt to this country so tar as they
are individually able to do so. But let a nation that owes France money
suggest such a thing and the cry of indignation goes up.
WHAT AILN ALASKA?
Under the above caption warn written t.o the editor of the Bngi
neering and Mining Journal-Press, by Maurice D. Leehey. prominent
Beattie Alaska attorney. In response to an article appearing In rfbe
publication under date, of August 12. 1922: ^
Sir:—While in Alaska T read In your issue of August l 2, the item
on page 295 about the decreased population of that territory. You tuote
"Officials, and recite the explanation now being made everywhere by
these government bureaucrats, and the extreme conservationists, that
(the exhaustion of the bonanza, placers is solely responsible for the 30 per
cent decrease in the white population of Alaska as shown by the latest
census.
Then how do they explain the decrease in population in those yurts
of Alaska where there never was any placer mining? How do they
explain the empty buildings in the abandoned towns which were once
prosperous settlements of ah energetic ppople attracted by the deposits
of coal and metals? Why the desolation of comw»unitiee rifjht Hong
(the coast with ocean transportation and abundant timber and wonderful
resources other than placer gold? The people who left there were not
attracted there by placer mining.
I presume those "Officials in Washington familiar wilii Alaska"
are some of the horde who travel to Alaska at government expense each
spring with the geese, only later, and return even before the bir^a start
south in the Fall. Of course, these men would lose their jobs, cr at
least their junketing trips, if the government of Alaska were placed in
the hands of men oompelled to live in the territory the year round.
However, if the thirty-eight bureaus now governing Alaska from Wash
ington, several thousand miles away, could be merged into some effective
federal organization resident in Alaska, with authority to adunicister
the natural resources of the territory, and a few million miles of govern
ment red tape abolished, the pioneer life in Alaska would be more at
tractive. Then, instead of the splendid type of energetic people leaving
the Territory more of that kind would be attracted there, and the popu
lation would increase.
ANOTHKR KXAMPIjK OF ALASKA FHTTION WRITKRK.
The Texas Christian Advocate, in a recent article on the Alaska
Agricultural Collage and School of Mines, says in part: “Jnrtt look at
Alaska and reflect that the natives build house* out of snow and call
them Igloos, and crawl into them and sleep in their clothes through
nights six months long, saying their prayers only when they g» to bed
•a the first of July and forgetting their devotions until they aay grace
at breakflaat on the first of January.” R is possible that the Texas
Christian Advocate may be an excellent guide in matters theological, but
1b others, particularly those relating to Alaska doesn’t cat a whole lot
of ice. If the editor of the Advocate believes the nights are six months
long in Alaska, he might at lapst have continued hie investigations to
the extent of finding odt during what part of the year such nltfWs might
aecur. Perhaps the Alaska Native is not as well educated as he might
he, but be ia not fool enough to go to bed on the first of July when the
days are 24 hours long of continual daylight. Our advioe to the editor
of the Advocate is that he stick to theology. In other matters he is
somewhat lacking.
The difference is that a statesman thinks he belongs to the State,
and a politician thinks the State belongs to brim.—Duluth Herald.
The Turks are living up to their reputation for cruelty. One
of the first thdnsB they did after occupying towns in the neutral zone
WM to close all the saloons.—Brooklyn Eagle.
