of the ever-drifting polar ice. Nan sen, one of the first advocates of the theory, pointed to the fact that wreckage from the exploring craft, the Jeanette, destroyed near the New Siberian islands. was found two years after the wreck along the Greenland coast. A throwing stick" used by Alaskan Eskimos was found, it has been claimed, in drift wood on a Greenland beach. The wreckage and the stick, it was ar gued, lodged on an ice foe which carried them across the polar wastes to Greenland.
 Nansen found the drift not as strong as he expected, mainly be- cause the polar basin was much deeper than he had believed. He also discovered that the wind de- termined, to great extent, the route of the ice drifts. The Tram was carried to within $50 miles of the pole. and later cleared the ice near Greenland. When the drifting Tram arrived at the s2nd parallel, Nansen attempted to reach the pole over the ice. With one companion he left the ship and, in what has been described as the most daring sledge journey ever undertaken, pro- ceeded to the S6th degree. at that time the farthest north ever reached by man. There he turned back.

GETTING RESULTS.

Agitation for the creation of a development board to supplant the many federal bureaus which have jurisdiction over Alaska affairs is beginning to get results. The fear that their authority will be wrested from them has spurred bureau chiefs to unusual activity in an ef- fort to make a favorable showing before it is too late. Federal seat warmers at Washington have come to Alaska in droves during the pres ent season. many of them for their first glimpse of the Territory. And press reports from the national. cap ital contain frequent mention now adays of reforms set in motion for the betterment of conditions in Alaska.
 The development board may be long in coming, but its advocacy by prominent Republican members of Congress has had the effect of great ly stimulating interest at Washing ton in our much-neglected country; and bureau chiefs are proving that their power to improve conditions is almost as great as their power to hinder development. Lack of au- thority there is still, to be sure, and in abundance, but it is our opinion that the chief trouble in the past has been lack of interest at Wash ington, rather than red tape restric- tions.
 Alaskans are not yet fully in ac- cord regarding the development board plan, but they are unit in welcoming the increased bureau ac tivities which appear to be the di- rect result of development board agitation. More interest at Wash ington in Alaska affairs is what is needed just now to hold the Terri tory together, and it is beginning to look as if the heads of Alaskan bu- reaus have been aroused to the ne- necessity of doing something worth while, and doing it promptly.

BOOSTS ALASKA SCENERY.

After touring Alaska this summer, Ralph Hamlin. one of Southern Cali fornia's leading business men, on his return to the States, declared that there is no country in the whole world to compare with the North for beautiful scenery. Alaska, he says. is bound to outshine the Swiss Alps, the battlefields of Europe and every other tourist attraction. ..@-
 "As I travelled with my family through these frozen wonderlands, over glaciers and into the great h. terior of the great country, I could not help but think that there was a secret which the world would want to know" said Mir. Hamlin. "I could visualize some day in the future when a road, even though not a we'll paved road, would wind it's way into the Northland, passing through won- ders that have been held from the world. And I could visualize thou sands of motorcars, carrying the worlds tourist trade, travcrsing that road.
 "Of course, I appreciate the diff culties of constructing and n1aiptain- ing such a road through Alaska. But man will find way, and when he does, that road will do as much to open up Alaska as any other in- f1uence.
 Probably every person in Ameri- ca would like to visit Alaska because of the wonderful stories that have been told about it. The only draw back at present is the absence of transportation A trip to the In- terior means hardships. When these things are eliminated and a man can ship his own car to Alaska and then drive inland, or-looking even far ther ahead-when he can drive the entire distance, Alaska is bound to outshine the Swiss Alps, the battle fields of Europe and every other tourist attraction"

COLD STORAGE PLANT
 WORKING AT TAVERN

Nenana has the distinction of pos sessing the only restaurant in h. terior Alaska which operates its own cold storage plant. The Tavern cafe, owned by William Rodigkeit, and up to date in every other re- spect, now has this added attraction, which insures wholesome meats for restaurant use at all seasons of the year hereafter. And there is ample space in the plant for the storage of meat and other perishables for the Nenana public.
 The plant is of 50 tons capacity and thoroughly modern in every re- spect, strictly sanitary and economi- cal of operation. It was made by the York Construction company, of Seattle.
 SHoull tHc NSeu diASS, iuc pidhl can be made to turn out 1,5O0 pounds of ice every 24 hours. but at present it is not the intention of MT. Rodigkeit to make use of that feature of the plant.
 The plant consists of chill room. a freezing room and a special room for the storage of fish. And later on a compartment will be added for special kitchen use.
 MT. Rodigkeit is highly pleased with the manner in which the plant is performing, and he extends 8 cordial invitation to the people of Nenana to inspect it. He also has modern bakeshop in connection with the cafe. which he will be pleased to show to those interested. He is justly proud of his establish ment. which is without doubt one of the most completely equipped res taurants north of Seattle.

ARCTIC TRAILS.

Trails blazed across the Arctic ice pack a quarter of a century ago by Fritjof Nansen, Norwegian explor- CT, were expected to be followed, for a distance, by Nansen's fellow countryman, Captain Roald Amund- sen, discoverer of the south pole, when he left Nome recently on an attempt to drift across or near the north pole.
 Nansen, in 1895, attempting the same drift, sailed around Russia and Siberia and locked his boat. the Tram, in the ice off the New Siberi- an islands, which lie in the Arctic north of Siberia. Amundsen, on leaving Nome, said he planned to sail to the same New Siberian is lands, let his boat, the Maude, iIeeZe III ehe iCe, anu sneh oho" the winds and currents to carry him where they would.
 Explorers theories that an Arctic current starts near the New Siberi- an islands, runs through the Polar sea, across or near the pole, and finally ends at Greenland, in the Att lantic, were used by both Nansen and Amundsen as base upon which they made their plans.
 Existence of the current has been disputed by many Arctic authori- ties, who claimed the wind and not the current determined the route
