SECRKTARY CAUL'S
VISIT TO SKVTT1.V
"I'nshackle Alaska from bureau
cratic control and speed up reclam
ation of arid lands." These are the
major objects of President Harding
and his administration, said Secre
tary of the Interior Albert K Tall
The distinguished visitor, in Seat
tle on his first visit, deplored the
limited time alloted to him here, and
declared that he wanted to come
here again in two months "to sit
down and talk with Seattle about
Alaska and other matters before
making a trip to the Northern terri
tory next summer." President Hard
1 ing will undoubtedly accompany him
on his 1922 Alaska trip, he announc
ed.
I "There are three measures now
under consideration to relieve Alas
ka of the burden of bureaucratic
jcontrol. one of these is to give the
president power to allocate control,
and another provides for a commis
sion form of territorial government
Fifty-seven varieties of bureaus can
not function in the best interests of
the territory." was Secretary Fall's
summary of the situation as it ex
ists at present. The laws pertain
ing to the national domain do noi
fit Alaska. The problems in that
section of the country are peculiar
jto that section alone Capital is
what is needed. If it is available to
open tip the country to the miner he
will see to it that he gets transpor
tation for his ores. Moreover the
laws relating to the territory must
be liberalized if Alaska is to be de
veloped. Capital must be assisted
, by legislation. If the speculative
element is too strong it will be dif
ficult to get capital to go in. It is
I my present plan to have a practical
railroad man make a survey of the
Alaskan railroad situation and ren
' der a full report on It."
"I am interested in the territrov's
development." was the secretary's
word to Alaskans, "and shall do all
in my power to help it forward."

open mind.—Binghamton Sun.
