JUNEAU, QUEEN
 CITY OF NORTH
BY H. H. SNOW

Juneau is not dead and if you even so much as think so you are trying to convince yourself and are bound to convince others to thc detriment of the city's advancement. To oe sure, Juneau has had setback as have many other cities and towns in Alaska and the States but Juneau is recuperating and getting stronger every day.
 If conditions at present seem a little dull they are due to the re construction period and reaction after great world war Similar condi- tions are being experienced iE every corner of the globe. Everywhere merchants are stabliz,ng their busi- nesses and cleaning house. Stagna- tion is being overcome and unhealthy business conditions avoided by util.- zation of material resources, reopen ing of old industries and building up new ones.
 The only way to increase our pop ulation and encourage new industries here is to concentrate our minds on q big city and make Juneau jus; that. Large in population, strong in industry and above all else large in our own ideals.
 Keep before you always that Juneau is the Queen City of Alaska. It is the natural and logical distribut- ing point for freight destined to the Westward, for warehouses for the fishing industry, for pulp mill, ana particularly for a cold storage plank which we are going to have. We will start the ball rolling with the latter plant and in it's momentum it will gather other businesses around it. Other new industries will follow We are looking forward now to a successful business reconstruction period in which everybody must help Everybody must concentrate on the wonderful future of Juneau, not on its demise.
 We must all be boosters. Write and tell your friends about what we have. Tell the Shriners when they arrive on June 30. Make a special effort to instill in the minds of this body of men our enthusiasm and our belief in the growth of our
