AERIAL STRIKE
 ENDED QUICKLY; STRIKERS LOSE

WASHINGTON, D. c, July 26.- The strike of American aerial mail carriers, which has the distinction of being the nrst of the kind re- corded in any part of the world, will go down in history with the further distinguishing mark of hav- ing been one of the shortest strikes in Americal labor annals.

CLUB WILL TRY
 ID DIVERT MAIL
 10 BROAD PASS

An effort is to be made by the Nenana Commercial club to induce the postofice department to route Interior Alaska mail during the com ing winter by way of the new Broad Pass trail, which is now approach ing the Interior rapidly from the end of steel in the Anchorage divi- sion of the government railroad.
 The advantage of using the new trail as a mail route was brought to the attention of the club at meeting held last night, and while it is recognized that considerable difficulty may be experienced in persuading a slow-moving depart ment to consent to such a change on short notice, the advantages, both to the government and to h. terior Alaska, are such as to make the effort worth while.
 4 committee consisting of Robert Joseph Diven, Freak D. Browne, and R. G. Southworth was appoint cd to investigate the proposition and to take such action as might be deemed advisable to bring about the desired result.
 The Secrest party, sent out from Anchorage by the Alaskan Engi- reering commission to locate the government railroad from Indian river to Nenana canyon, has con- structed a good road from the end of the grade at Indian river to a point about twenty miles north, and it is the intention of the party 70 complete the road to the end of steel south of Nenana before the freezeup That will insure a rapid means of communication between ends of steel during the coming winter, over a splendid winter trail. The distance between railheads, by the time the wagon road is com pleted, probably will not be more than one hundred miles.
 The use of the Nenana-Anchnr- age highway in the manner sug- gested by the club will insure in creased tonnage for the government railroad, lessen the time required for hauling mails to Interior Alas ka, and facilitate the delivery of mails in districts adjacent to the railroad which are now without service The Broad Pass trail also has the advantage of being free from difficult summits and deep drifts.
 The department necessarily must route the Interior mail via Broad Pass eventually, and, in the opinion of the club, the change can be made profitable for the government by taking advantage of the short haul immediately.
