ilcrc are some of the high spots
of the remarkable address of thu-
lnir- l‘rcsideni. at Seattle, all about
Alaska:
"There can be none to dispute
Alaska's ore-eminence as the em-
pin- of scenic wonders.
"There is no sea trip in the world
to equal it.
“There is no litre of mountain.
sircnttr. unity and plain to surpass
it anywhere.
"’l‘horcuis no liner citizenship in
the United States.
“We have enormously strength-

ka as the home of a great state in
the, American commonwealth.
"Alaska. is once more gaining in

ity. _
“Alaska needs no panacea.
"Alaska will come in for a. better
share than ever before has fallen to
its lot.
"Regulation of the fisheries shall
be enforced.

program of moderation. of control,

nitnt.
"None. having seen it. will ever
again question its place among the
won-lerlands of earth."
concerning the unsavory and po-
litical reports of Alaska. the late
President said: “There has been
much misunderstanding. no little
misapprehension and some dispOsi-
tion to hysteria. at times about Alas-
ks."
As to its value to the United
States President Harding said: 'Vi'e
have been paid back many times
for every dollar spent on Alaska and
the dividends have only begun."
He concluded: “Mine is pride and
faith in Alaska. Her people will
work out the destiny of an enchant-
ing empire. and turn a wonderland
of. riches and incomparable fascina-
tion to added power and new glory
to our Republic." .
No longer let,scandal or suspicion
attach to Alaska. The story for the
first time has been truthfully told
by the late leader of this admin“.
tratlon. who made a fatal pilgrim-
age to America's northern poo-ea-
sion to tell the people the facts and
the future of a glorious part of the
Republic.

authorized the corporation "in or-

eign nations through the extension
of credits." to make .advancus to
(1) any portion. iirni. corporaiicn or
association exporting domestic
products to foreign countries; (2)
any bank. banker or trust company
making advances for the exporta-
tion of domestic products. Such ad-
vances cannot exceed 81.00ii,0tlti,ooo
at. any time: and may be made un‘
til the expiration of one year after
the termination of the war.
Fearing that the cessation of ex-
crs
products.
ports for military purposes follow-
ing the armistice might result in
the decline of exports of domestic
products. Congress empowered the
corporation to make these advances.
The corporation borrowed of the
Treasury and the Treasury in turn
borrowed of the people. _
In 1920 Secretary of the Treasury
Glass. in advocating a cessation of
the export operations of the cor-
poration. said: “Individuals or
firms have not been unable to ob~
taln funds with which to finance ex-
ports. Exports this year (1920) are
going forward at the rate of over
2 billion dollars. approximately 50.
per cent agricultural product. Bor-
rowing countries of Europe lack
satisfactory securities. This is the
sufficient satisfactory: securities.
This is the chief obstacle. and this
obstacle the government of this
country can not remove."
In March. 1919. the corporation
advanced to the Director General of
the railroads $50,000,000, and to the
railroads themselves “5.994.830.
.When Congress assembled these
loans were repaid by an appropria.
tion._
,The corporation invested heavily
in government securities. When the
armtstice was signed. the War FI-
nance Corporation owned more than
“90,000,000 worth of government
securities. bonds and Treasury oer.
tiilcates. It showed a. book profit of
"2.500.000.
The corporation did not begin to
advance funds for the export of do-
mestic products until December,
191’.
l‘YOfl'l that date to November 15,
1’20. the corporation had made
leans for this purpose amounting to
"6.147.064. of which 32,855.14. had
I

of 843.492.508.
These adumces wt re made rot (.\-

Thus the corporation “as a gov-

loans and credits that the govern-
ment could not advance “illiout
bonowinl more money. and possibly
exceeding the powers of Hic- 'l'rcus-
ury.
Over the President's veto Con.
gress January 1. 1921. directed the
Secretary of the Treasury to revive
the activities of the corporation
With a view to assisting in the fi-
nancing of the exportation of agri-
cultural and other products.
In July. 1921. the corporation fi-
nanced for a cotton associatian the
sale of 100.000 bales of cotton for
export. the cotton to be held in
American warehouses until a proper
time for export. Later 1.000.000
bales were financed in a similar
manner. This opened up a newplan
which was followed by many con-
cerns. '
In August. 1921,
Congress gave
the corporation
power to extend
this sort of credit. It empovvcred it
to advance credits to dealers in.
handlers of agricultural products,
including co-operative associations.
thus financing the carrying of‘such
products until they could be ex-
ported. Advances were made for
one year. with discretion by the
corporation to extend for three
years. Such advanCes were made to
banks. trust companies and live
stock associations. .
The corporation appointed com-
mittees in the principal agricultur-
al and live stock sections to con-
sider application Companies were
formed in the est to make live
stock loans in co-operation with the
War Finance Corporation.
November 15. 1921, the corpor-
tion had made advances amounting
to $119,082.788—350.118.076 to ag-
riculture alone. and 863.700.000 to
co-operatlve annotations.
November 30. 1922. a year and
eleven months after the corporation
was revived. the approved ad-
vances amounted, .to 803,447,000.

8 The Greater New York.
There is such a community on the
map and it is revealing itself in
princely Shape under the tail for
funds for the distressed [and of
Nippon. Says the New Haven Jour-
anl-Currier. No' other city in the
country is equalling the generosity .
and kindly sympathy of this greater
New York The only conclusion one
can reach is that she is revealing
herself in this superb manner be—
cause it is the sort of revelation that
pleases her to make. When her heart
is touched. it spins and toils w‘Ith an
extravagance and joy that lets III
see her as she is in reality. In the
routine life of the day she shows a
patience. where it is not an indif-
ferencc, that baffles the outside ob-
server. She oxhibits all the vices of
a great congested community m her
politics and social life. As a com-
munity she endures evils which in
a. smaller city or town would leaf
to a serious upheaval of thought.
Police corruption and the spread; of
crime find her undisturbed and un-
perturbed. Thlngs that do not in-
terest her do not move her. as if
the gaspei of fataiism had seized
her by the throat and made her in.
articulate. Art and other forms of
culture appeal to her and receive
a. mighty support. She has a heart
for the truly great things of life and.
is content to endure silently and
patiently the scanty things of life.
Japan needs her money and it pours
out in a choking stream of plenty.
The hard crust of cynicism and
selfishness is ripped off and the real
New York stands naked in the map
ket place. To add to one's knowl-
edge of the Bible and the work! of
