SOVIET CAN MOBILIZE ARMY
OK FIVE M1I.IJON MEN, SAYS
ANONYMOUS RUSSIAN WRITER
Paris, July.—Tho present regular
Soviet army number's 1,370.000 men.
In time of war this number can be in
creased to 5,000.000 men with a com
plementary force of 300,000 women,
declares a major, writing anonymous
ly in the Excelsior.
"The present Russian conscript
army consists of three classes—1S99.
1900 aud 1901"—ho savs. "The 1.
370.000 men are divided into thir
ty-seven divsions, twenty autonom
ous brigades of Ufantry, thirteen
aud one-half divisions and two auto
nomous brigades of cavalry. This
makes a total of ninety-live brigades
of infantry and forty-nine brigades
of cavalry.
"The princpal handicap of the Rus
sian army." the military critic con
tinues. "is its lack cf trained officers.
Of the officers 6S jer cent, are of
peasant origin. Twelve per cent, are
workmen from the titles aud 20 per
cent, are of other classes. Only 5 per
cent, of the army officers were of
ficers in the peace-time army of the
czar.
".Military training In Russia is be
ing pushed rapidly, however, and
there are l^-iS schools tuning out of
ficers. T:.ere are twelve higher
schools for the various arms or ser
vices. Seven staff colleges are at
tempting to turn out officers who car.
till requirements cf generul staff
work in case of wrr. One college is
limited to officers of general's rank.

SHERMAN ROGERS IS HERE
TO STl'DV II.I S OF ALASKA
Realizing that there Is something
radically wrong with Alaska as the
result of mismanagement, misunder
standing. misinformation or mistak
en t' eorles, or all of tliem, the Out
look Magazine, wh.ch \ltself had a
hand in locking up the resources of
the Northland to the extent of giv
ing support to the conservation pol
icy of Oifford Pinchot, has set about
learning the real facts concerning
Alaska, and Sherman Rogers Is here
to get the desired 'nformatlon first
hand. After he b-i.i made a thor
ough investigation of conditions In
tho principal sections of the terri
tory. he will give his views public
ity through the pages of the Outlook
Magazine And he's making the in
vestigation with t) e understanding
that his views will be printed Just as
he writes them. T!.e editors of Out
look are anxious to tell the truth
ilioiu \laska and th?y have put It up
to Sherman Rogers to do the telling,
in his own forceful language.
Mr. Rogers. whos.e rise to fame as
writer and orator has been phenotn
inal, arrived from the coast on Sat
urday aboard the business cur of the
Alaska Railroad, after a leisurely
trip from Seattle. He made frequent
stops along the way to make a close
up study of conditions and he has
found that the viewj of Aluskans and
his own are in accord on the ques
tion of conservation—that there is
too much of it for the country's
good.
.Mr. Rogers does not believe Uiut
it will he possible to throw tlie ter
ritory wide open, as it was betore
the resources were withdrawn by
executive order and congressional
restriction; 'out he believes that
conservation, like prohibition can be
made over in.u a workable safeguard
that will continue to conserve but
without preventing development.
Mr. Rogers says that his observa
tions thus far have convinced hint
that the territory is rich in natural
resources, so fich and so vast that
there is nothing to fear from an in
vasion of capital. But he says the
people of the Slates, including some
in !igh authority, have an exagger
ated notion about Alaska's riches
and are inclined to diacuss the op
portunities rather lsosely. Too many
Outsiders have the Idea that gold
nuggets can he fcand clinging to
every grass root.
There is plenty of capital avail
able in the Stales Mr. RogerB says,
for the development of Alaska pro
jects .Hut it will require educational
campaigning to ge: it and the re
moval or modification of restrc
lions. Mr. Rogers suggests that one
way to interest capital in Alaska
is to persuade wealthy Easterners
to visit the territory during the
hunting season. They would enjoy
bagging moose and other big game
' ind thiir visits might naturally re
sult in the acquisition of mlnng and
other interests. Mr. Rogers hopes to
be able to induce rorae of his East
ern friends to visit the territory be
foie the end of tl"e present year,
and he Is sure they will enjoy the
outing more than they do their an
nual hunts iu the Maine and other
northern woods.
Mr. Rogers Is known as the "Lum
berjack oraotr." He lived in the
West until a very short time ago
and worked in the lumber woods,
where lie gathered original ideas
regarding the all-important labor
problem which has since brought
him prominently before the nation
as a writer and lecturer.
COMTEK'S ATTACKS UNFOUNDED
"Sure ho belongs to the union. I j
guess I ought to know 'cause 1 want
ed to llnd out how to Join myself
some ot these days," wan Jack's com
ment an Uncle Ted entered the gar
age where Ruth anfl Jack were talk
ing.
"I didn't think he did," answered
Ruth.
"Freddie's futhei does belong to
the union. That's iJl right. There's
no harm In that. The unions are
line things 'cause Uncle Ted says so,
but they've got some men In tUem
who are NOT so fine."
"Guess you're rlfht, Jack," spoke
up Uncle Ted from the other Bide of
the car where he had not been seen
by the children.
"When did you come out here?"
asked Ruth.
"Just a minute ago," answered Un
cle Ted, "to see what you were upto.
It's getting dark und bed-time, so
come along. You'v« made me think
of a story I've wsjted to tell and
how I'm going to tell It.
"Apparently, Jack, you were talk
ing about the attitude taken recent
ly by the American Federation of
Labor and Its President, Samuel
Gompers, when that body met In Cin
cinnati. There Is no doubt that the
Federation is controlled by Demo
cratic officials led by Mr. Gompers.
They have Indulged In the greatest
misrepresentation <.f the efforts of
the present Republican administra
tion. They have pro fed that the-Am
erican Federation ot Labor is not led
by men devoted to the problems of
the nun est uua industrious mnjuniy i
of laboring meu. I. Is controlled by
a few officials who are using It to'
spread malicious charges against the
Republican party. It doesn't tako
much effort to remember how Sam
ual Gompers used to camp on the
doorstep or the White House and at
tend officials functions at the right
hand of Woodrow Wilson. He was
practically an official of the adminis
tration when the Democrats were In
control. Now HE >B ON THE OUT
SIDE LOOKING IN. If he and tbe
other officials of the organization
looked after the interests of the men
who belong to it they would have no
time to indulge in unfounded attacks
upon the work of the administration
"Their aitack against the manner
In which the budget system has been
handled at Washington is without
foundation. The appropriation bills
passed by the Cout/ess now In ses
sion provide more funds for the de
partment of Labor for the year be
ginning July 1 than for the present
year. Tiie total atnount of money
spent by the Department of Labor
for 1922 stands at $3,454,8.10. The
amount voted by the present Con
gress and agreed to by President
Harding under the budget system for
the Department of Labor for ;)2J Is
1 <(,(>-<>! This shows that the
amount of money provided by the
budget system for the Department
stands at $1,462,085 more than the
amount provided without the bi'rtget

in omer wuruo, me ui>|n u,»i :n

er than they were Jor the preceding
year. The fact la that tho Federa
tion had no reason (or m.ikln,: such
charges as were Indulged In :it Cin
clnnutl. The Republican party Is
strong enough to weather thorn. But
the t art of it that makes me and any
other real citizen mad Is that the at
tacks are really at the govjrn i>en;.
>'r. Gompers and his ass, elates have
also attacked the Supreme court of
tV United States. He wants Hs ln>

At the last meeting of the council,
the clerk was instructed to address
a letter to officials cI the road build
ing organization, sitting forth the
needs of the district in this regard.
And the matter was taken up ver
bally with Chairman Steese during
his brief stay in town on Sunday,
with the result that the members of
the council were assured that the de
Bired aid would be given if funds
would permit. The matter already
has been taken up by the commission
to the extent of gathering data rel
ative thereto, and the council will
confer with Major Gotwals shortly,
with a view to ge.ting definite ac
tion. Major GotwaJs, who is engin
eer officer of the commission, will be
in Nenana within a week or two.
The council also will endeavor to
interest the Alaska Road Commis
sion In a winter road project which
will shorten the distance considera
bly between Nenana and lower Tan
ana river points. The plan is to
have a winter road cut between Ne
nana and Minto or some other point
on the Hot Springs trail. The build
ing of such a road was suggested
several years ago, and it seems to
be generally agreed that it would
prove a great mprovement over the
present trail by way of Dunbar.—Ne
