TRACTOR AND DOG TEAM RIVALS FOR HONORS
 BUCKLNG SNOW DRIFTS;

For the first time in the history of mail transportation in the far north a caterpillar tractor will augment dog teams in transportation of mail. The plans to use the big Holt tractor to break trail next winter for the dog teams conveying mail from the end of steel, over a distance of some ninety miles to connect with the Fairbanks end of the government railroad and for distribution throughout the inter- for of Alaska.
 The matter of handling the mail via Anchorage instead of via Cordova as was the case last winter, is causing much speculation among veterans of the trail Experienced dog team men maintain that it will require ap- proximately 100 dogs working in teams of fifteen dogs each to convey the 2,4OO pounds of mail over the trail tri- weekly, and many are of the opinion that even with this number there will pc plenty or WOTk TOT the muSHeIS to keep the trail open and delivering the mail as per schedule.
 It was announced by William Gerig, assistant chief engineer of the com mission, that in addition to the dogs the commission will put the big Holt caterpillar on the trail to keep it open and thus insure the mail getting through when the trail conditions make going heavy for the dogs. The tractor climbs the snowdrifts and smashes a way through where horse and dog would be elpless.-Anchor-

NEW GOVERNOR
 KERRASSO(JN[)E; IS MUCH HFElALRED|I ElA

KERRASSOUNDE, Anatolia, Turk ey, Sept. IT (by Associated Press).- Osman Agha, the newly designated governor of Kerrassounde, is probably the most feared man on the north coast of Anatolia.
 When the nationalists selected Os- man Agha to impress Greeks, Armen- ians, Jews and Turks alike into IIus- tapha Kemars army, they took into their camp man who would have been a terrible menace in opposition ranks and who is merciless in execut- ing the orders of the Angora govern ment.
 Osman Agha has been for years the self-constitued boss of Kerrassounde. Tn office or out of office he is master of the local situation. Until recently he was the only mayor of the little city. But no provincial governor could give the old bandit chief orders. In fact he always managed to .unseat all provincial officials. He transceuded valis, metropolitans and bishops. All Turks, Greeks, Armenians, Jews and others fear him alike, but had to obey his orders. He took over property which he wanted without legal right and threw anyone into prison who questioned his authority.
 Osman Agha was even self-consti- tuted regulator of Women's fashions. He hated the high-hee1ed shoes and short skirts which Moslem women copied from their French sisters. Con- sequently he issued and edict that no Mohammedan woman should wear a heel more than one inch high and that their dresses come to the ankle. Then he immediately sent word to all the shoemakers and dressmakers that they would be jailed if they executed orders in violation of the edict.
 He dried up Kerrassounde by met hods as direct as those of the late Carrie Nation. Without warning he went to all the liquor shops and poured all the spirits into the streets. It was being sold in violation of Moham- medan teachings. Being a Turk of the old school and a total abstainer himself, he offered no explanation whatever to the wine merchants, who 6
 Immoral women became too conspic- uous in Kerrassounde. Consequently he ordered that the heads of all such women be shaved. Many of the women left the town. Those who remained disappeared from time to time and many of their bodies were washed up by the sea.
 Osman Agha embodies all the tyran- ies which Turkish officials exercised over the Christians in Pontus, the Black sea coast of Anatolia, where Greeks predominated in the chief cit ies for many centuries.
 The Greeks of Pontus are buoyed up by the hope that they may soon be protected aganst Turkish oppression but they dare not show their joy at the prospect of deliveranoe. Until many of the Turkish officials respon- sible for massacres and deportations shall have been punished there will be no peace and security for the Christians in POntus.
