AT a lime liUo this, when Ku- rope is closed lo normal trade, every sign of Increasing trade elsew here Is welcome. The Cull ed States Is sparing no effort lo build up trade In the New World and elsewhere. Now who do you suppose Is the United Hlnlea' best New World customer? Canada, of course. But to llto south? Well, Argunllna, Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela But next? Why, our own Alaska! During the past year Alaska bought $14,262,710 worth of good from the United States, almost two million dollars more than lit any year in the territory's history. The amount of Increase is insignl fit-ant. But the upward trend is hopeful. ; If the United Slates could really Represented by 'settle Alaska, a great and thriv ing market for United States goods might well be created. Ja pan fought a war for the bleak plains of Manchuria, and now tries to develop and' settle them at great expense and pains. But the United States, which bought Alas ka for a song, hesitates at an ag gressive development that might make it a mighty commonwealth and give an expansive outlet which is badly needed.
