CONSTRUCT L. S. GOVERN
MENT Y-PRODUCT PLANT

Cordova, Alaska, Dec 21.-(By
Mail, Nov. 20)-Work is being pushed
in the construction of United States
government by product plant on the
Pribiloff Islands for the manufacture
of oil and fertilizer from the car
casses of seals killed for their skins.
Reports received here last summer
said it was hoped operations could be-
gin this year All the men at the gov
ernment sealing station on the islands
were working on the plant.
Carcasses of approximately 27,000
seals killed this year on st. Paul
island, and the Pribiloffs, will furnish
ample material for the preliminary
operations of the plant.
In all, 33,sS1 skins were taken this
year during the regular killing season
on the two islands, st. Paul and St.
George. The season ended August 10.
During the remainder of the year a
few seals will be killed to furnish
fresh meat for the natives.
The United States Treasury has al
ready been enriched this year by pro-
ducts of the Pribiloffs. Nearly a
thousand bags of unground and 321
bags of ground bone from st. Paul
island were sent to Seattle and sold.
Eighty-four sheep hides from the
islands also were sent to the States
and disposed of. From the proceeds
of the bone sales the natives were
paid one-half cent per pound for
gathering the bones.

With regard to the wood ship pro-
gram, the report says the board has
recognized that more careful atten-
ticn should be given to ships of large
size, and after investigation has de-
cided to recommend that efforts be
concentrated upon the construction of
a 5.000-ton flush-dec( wood ship,
which would be as strong as the $500
ton types now being built, and which
could be produced at saving Of ap-
proximately $50 per ton. At the
present tima. ten types Of wood ships
of $500, 4,o00 and 5000 deadweight
tons are being turned cut.
Since August /, wood ship produc-
tion has averaged at least one COM
plete readv-for-service WOOD steam

declares that this average will in
crease.
Concrete ship construction has been
limited, the report states, because this

Wireless Phone
For Aviation Is
Invention of War

The wireless telephone used on the
western front by allied aviators dur
ing the last six months OF the war is
proclaimed by the war department.
1.-The greatest invention OF the war"
/ Colonel Clarence C. Culver, OF
Washington. is the inventor. 1t has
been in working order nearly a year,
but the first official announcement
and the first photographs are just
made public.
During the war 1t was carefully
guarded from German knowledge, for
the aviator's wireless did much toward
beating the Germans in that it made
more easily possible the supremacy
in the air Of the allied aviation forces.
By this new invention it was poSSi-
Bile to communicate with aviatorS al
ter they had scared thousands of feet
aloft and to direct their movements
Thus beginners were sent up without
instructors and directed by the flight
commanders.
The invention followed eight years
Of experiment engaged in by Colonel
Culver, and other wireless wizards,
military and civilian, and was COM
pleted at San Diego, Cal, last Febru-
airy. These sets were first used by
American aviators at Chateau Thierry
and were in part responsible for the
tremendous success of American arms
there.
Col Culver spent the greater part OF
the year instructing French and Brit
ish air fighters IN the use of the new
invention.
The invention will be of wonderful
assistance in the development of sir
traffic in peace, it is pointed out by
nigh Officers OF the signal corps.
