SEWARD LEATHER WORKS , The House committee on appro priations will, in a few days, start the consideration of the budget es timates for the various supply bills of the government. The Interior Department bill, in which Alaskans have particular interest, will be { considered stalling November 16. In view of the general demand for evonomy it is understood that the allowance made for this depart ment is fairly satisfactory. However just what the various sums are will not be made known to the public until the budget is presented to Congress by the President. Until that time the various committee hearings will be of a secret nature. The Interior Department has sum moned to Washington Governor George A. Parks, head of the Alas ka road activities; Ike P. Taylor, chief engineer of the road commis sion, and Burton H. Barndollar, ex aminer of accounts of the Alaska Railroad; Charles E. Naghel, dis bursing officer of the road commis sion and other activities in Alaska of the Interior Department; Geo. C. Dickens, general agent of the railroad at Chicago; Paul W. Gor don, director for Education for Alaska; Dr. Fellows, medical direc tor for Alaska. The Governor will likely be the first to appear before the committee, and he is expected to stress the importance of a more liberal appropriation than the $494,000 allowed for the present year to the Alaska Road Commis sion. The new Democratic admin istration, through the Interior De partment, will have control of the Alska Road Commission after March 4, and it is expected that their Democratic appropriations committee will deal more generous ly with Alaska’s needs than did the House committee last spring when but $354,000 was allowed for the commission, that was raised $140, 000 by the Senate committee.
