TOLOVANA WILL
HAVE TELEPHONE
WITH NEW ROAD

According 10 information received
from the Tolovana district, it is the
intention of the residents of that
camp to install a telephone system,
with long distance connections. dur
ing the winter or early spring. They
feel keenly the loss of the wireless
istation which was maintained at
Brooks for a number of wears, and
will replace it with a phone line
connecting with the Government
telephone line at Dunbar's. where
, the logiam trail connects with the
railroad The wire will be strung
; from Brooks to the logjam, and
thence along the winter trail TO
the railroad
The work of putting the Brooks
trail in shape for winter travel is
now in progress, under the direc-
tion of John Josiin. who has a con-
siderable force of men engaged on
the project. The work was started
early this month and will include
the cutting of approaches where the
trail crosses the Chatanika river and
other streams, the tagging of the
trail where it crosses open stretches
of country, and perhaps the build
ing of a new trail around one or
more of the lakes traversed by the
old route. The sum of $4,000 or
more will be expended on the work.
The improvement of the trail, it
is believed. will be followed by its
general use by the people of Tolo-
vana, as it will shorten the dis
lance considerably. And its use will
make business for the Government
railroad.
The improvement was suggested
by the Nenana Commercial club
many months ago, soon after the
commencement of railroad construc-
ton north of Nenana, and direct
appeal was finally made to the Alas
ka Roa1 commission for relief, with
the resi-. hat the project was un-
dertaken without further delay.

CLUB TO ELECT
At MEETING ON
FRIDAY NIGHT

A very important meeting of the
Nenana Commercial club will be
held at the quarters of the organ
ization in the Union building to-
morrow night, that being the date
of the annual gathering of members
for the election of officers. The
members are manifesting much in
tereSt in the election and there prob
ably will be large turnout in con-
sequence, and a lively contest for
places.
The past year has been an event
full one in Commercial club annals,
the organization having taken up
many matters of Importance to Ne
mana and the Nenana district and
carried numerous of the campaigns
to successful conclusion. The
most recent accomplishment of the
club was the Brooks trail improve
ment, which is now under way I'M
der the direction of the Alaska Road
commission. and which will result
in a material lowering of transporta-
ton costs to the people of the Tolo-
vana district, the creation of new
business for the Government rail-
road, and the diversion of sub
stantial portion of that business to
Nenana, which is the nearest town
to Brooks and the Tolovana dig
gings.
The coming year will be produc-
tive of much more work for the
club, of greater importance, per-
haps, than any yet undertaken, and
the members realize the necessity
OF having men at the mead OF the
organization who will give as good
an account of their administration
as have the officers who have been
in charge of affairs during the past
year
There are several matters. other
than the election, which will receive
the attention of the members at
tomorrow nights meeting. One Of
these matters is the freight rate
established by the Alaskan Engi-
neering commission ON the complet-
ed portion of the Government rail
road.

GREEKS MAY SEE
PRESIDENT TODAY
Delegation Will Present King
dom'S Claim to Province
of ThraCe.

Delegates to the convention here Of
the Friends OF Greece, representing
more than 100000 Creeks and Ameri-
cans of Greek descent in America, will
see the President and Secretary OF
State Lansing either today or later
this week and put before them
Greece's claim for the province of
Thrace, with the exception Of Con-
stsntinople. The delegation which
calls on the President probably will be
headed by Senator ,, alsh Of Massa-
chusetts.
Senator Walsh last night spoke TO
the delegates and told them Thrace
and Epirus Fightfully belonged to
Greece; that If the province were not
given to the kingdom there would in
evitably result another war He said
the allied powers should establish new
boundary lines and then organize all
the governments Of the world, with
the purpose Of preventing further war,
suffering, and misery.
Must BE Careful
I've must be careful" he said,
that we do not lead to more wars
rather than to future peace and hap
piness.
this world IL these surveys have not
been made solely on the principle Of
doing justice and on the principle Of
self-determination. 1 want you to
know that so far is I have a voice I
shall see to il that no injustice is done
TO any good friend Of the United
States"
You came here to America" said
the Senator, and have become num-
bered among the best citizens of the
( country. You have erected beautiful
temples and have won world fame
for your architecture and sculpture
You didn't hesitate to send SIS, 900
young men of your blood TO fight un-
der the Sars and Stripes to make the
world a decent place to live in. So
you have right to speak, you have a
right to be heard, you have a right
to let America know your wants.
Your own people have shown to
America in this war just what you
think and just how much you ap-
preciated American liberty. II there
is any question in America about
your loyalty and devotion, no one
can dispute the fact that you are
heart and soul with the principles of
Americans and Americanism."
Hopes For Aid.
Senator Walsh stated he intended to
see the President on behalf Of the
Greeks, and believed the President
would do what he thought was right,
because he is "a just, fair, and honor
able man, who means to do the just
and fair thing"
The delegates yesterday visited va
riOus members OF Congress and OBJ
tained their sentiments on the Tracian
question. They reported that all their
interviews were favorable.
Senator George II. Moses. OF New
Hampshire, will speak before the
convention tonight at o'clock.
