rently rumored on Maui that the army

Chamber Goes After
Island Electric Co.
Committee Named To Garry CON-
munity Complaints To Utilities
Commission. - Will Find What
Commission Can Do.

If the Island Electric Company is
to continue to serve the Wailuku com
munity it will have to give better
service than it has ever given before
and that mighty soon, or fight for its
corporate life. This was indicated at
the meeting of the trustees of the
chamber of commerce held on Tues
day afternoon when a committee was
appointed to do what it can to see
if the public utilities commission can
be made to see a little light in con-
nection with the rotten service which
the electric company is furnishing"
The committee is composed OF f..
r. Bevins, H. X. Duncan and Will. j.
Cooper 1t has already addressed a
letter to the commission calling at
tention to the fact that that body has
eXhaustively Investigated the physical
what it can and will do to afford re-
lief. II the body wishes further testi-
mony as to how the community feels
on the subject, the committee volun-
teers to supply a statement frol4
every patron, if need be to get the de-
sired relief.
The matter was discussed at some
length at Tuesdays meeting and it
was apparently the unanimous opinion
that the community has stood for
rotten" service and excessive rates
until patience has ceased to be a
virtue.
PROMISES NF RELIEF
1t is leported that Robert e. Bond,
president of the company, who now
lives in Berkeley, has bought new
engine and generator which is now on
the way to supplement the old plant.
Also Mr.. Bond has started a campaign
to sell more preferred stock of the
company to local investors for the
purpose, presumably of financing the
improvements needed. The represen-

There are again rumors of the or

EFFORT LOCATE
 DIANA FUTILE;
 SEARCH WIDENS
Dixon and Chichagof Boat Report Failure Lynn
 Canal to Be Searched.

Efforts to find some trace of the gasboat Diana which have been in progress since last Wednesday have all been fruitless, according to statement made this morning by Charles Goldstein, owner of the boat. The search is being widened today to include possible shelter ports on Lynn Canal, south of Haines, it being considered possible that the Diana, becoming disabled, was blown out of her, course of the Canal.
 Capt. Tom Smith aboard the Dixon reported yesterday by wire less from Port Althorpe to MT. Coldstein saying that he had cov- cred the shores between Juneau and that place and had found no trace of the missing boat. D. J. Williams, mining engineer at the Hirst-Chi- chagof mine, also advised Mr. Gold stein that he had covered from the mine to Port Althorpe on the in side and found no sign of the Diana. Nothing has been heard from the Tillicum.
 Following the receipt of these telegrams, MT. Goldstein this morn ing requested Gov. Riggs to secure the assistance of the Harbor Boat Peterson from Fort William H. Seward to make a search down Lynn Canal from Haines. The Gov crnor wired the Commanding Officer at the post this morning asking that the search be made.
 The Diana left Juneau on the evening of November 30, Capt. Ed Jones and a deckhand and John Olsen, cook for the Hirst-Chichagoff mine, carrying a load of supplies. So far the name of the deckbGnd is not known, Mir Goldstein telling Capt. Jones to secure man ro help him out, but was not informed who was employed No definite trace of the boat has been uncovered since she departed from this port. The F. Nelson, fishing boat, left Ju- neau on December 1, on a trip off Icy Straits, taking approximately the same route as the Diana, re- turned to town last week and re- ported it had not sighted the latter craft Alfred Michaelson, who was cast ashore near Swanson Harboy

Alaska is declared to be the most nations pulp and paper supply n the annual report of E. T. Meredith Secretary of Agriculture, just issued The Tongass Forest alone he states can produce forever 100000 tons of newsprint yearly, along with ample quantities of timber for local pur- poses.
 "The Department of Agriculture, in common with number of other departments says the report, has very definite responsibilities in con nection win Alaskan development. l. is endeavoring. for example, 10 in crease the production of crops and livestock; it has experts in the field Investigating the possibility of build ing up the reindeer herds into an important source of meat supply; 1t is giving attention to the perpetua- ion of the fur industry.

 "The location of pulp mills in these forests will aid greatly in solving he problem of ous future supplies Of newsprint Under regulated use, the Tongass National Forest alone 1an probably produce forever, 1,500.- 900 tons of newsprint yearly, along with ample quantities of timber for local purposes. By far the lnO5t yaluab ble timber in Alaska is that which fringes it's western seaboard, he northward extension of the coast forests of Washington and British Columbia Practically all this coast tal area is owned by the Government It is under national forest adminis- ration and timber from it is already playing an important part in the in 1ustrial development of the Terri tory.

Service in Alaska To fulfill it eff fectively under system of long range administration is impossible. Tho public resources in Alaska can be properly managed only by lodging authority in men on the ground to act without waiting to consult dis tant superiors and the Forest Ser vice has consistently followed this policy. There is close cooperation between the Forest Service and the Territorial Government, and the an'- mating purpose of the Forest officers is to make the forests serve Alaska.
 "The greatest need of Alaska Is for the investment of capital in enter prises for the development of re- sources which can be developed in no other way The pulp supplies of the coast forests offer the best i'm mediate opening for capital To the task of securing this utilization on large scale, the energies of the Forest Service are now being direct ed, with every promise of success. One large sale has already been closed and others are in prospect.
