Pueblo, Colo.-The waters in the low
lying sections of Pueblo receded below
the five-foot mark today and still is
going down. The flood is at it's lowest
stage since it's sudden onslaught last
| Friday night. Today the work of re
moving the bodies from the Grove dis
trict began. The military have the
situation well in hand and order is
rapidly being brought out of chaos.
Only one or two cases of actual loot
ing have been brought to light since
the military assumed control of the
situation, according to officers. Today
there will arrive from Denver, accord
ing to Colonel Hammock, enough tents,
bedding and medical supplies to care
! for 1000 of Pueblo's homeless. Work
of establishing a refugee camp at Min
eral Palace Park also is under way and
all the floor sufferers now being cared
for in churches, schoolhouses and 9TH
er public buildings, will be removed to
the camp. On all roads leading into
Pueblo mounted guards have been
posted to stop and turn back all those
except persons having official business
in the city.
Survey Ruins and Loss Today.
Flood stricken central Colorado to-
day surveyed the havoc wrought of the
most disastrous flood in the history of
the west. An accurate estimate of the
loss of life and property damage is inn
possible at this time. With morgues
crowded to overlooking hospitals turn
ing patients to improvised relief sta
tions, and thousands homeless or suf-
fering from exposure, every effort was
being directed today toward alienation
of the suffering. The work of check
ing up the destruction and plans for
rehabilitation was left to the attention
Of outside forces now enroute to the
| almost PROSTATE community.
A report originating on the south
side of Pueblo last night that the Ar
kansas river was 4 feet higher at
| Swallows and a new flood might be
expected at Pueblo, was proved ground
less early today. At $3.50 o'clock the
river had fallen considerably from its
high point of last night. Danger of
repetition of the flood seemed to have

TRANSFORMATION

From all parts of the territory of Ahskn comes the very general com plahnt of the transportation service both as to the rates charged and the amount of service furnished by tn schedulse of the various lines of boats.
 A remedy for this is well within he hands of the citizeus Of Alaska if there is but made action that is gen. eral and concerted. \ suggestion that is timely and 70 the point was made recently by one of the largest ship pers of this city. It is that all those interested n this matter join in a move that will guarantee to some dndepend- ent boat a certain amount of tonnage each month. Trlis particular mercha mt advises that he would be in Il position extent of one hundred tons per month.
 There is no doubt many others who would join with him and d sufficient amount be obtained to make it at tractive to sone one who would be glad to put a boa1 on the run bctwsen AL aska and Puget Sound ports. The work of this should be made continuity activity, and be carried out through the civic and commercial or ganizltion of the various aties of AL aska. In this way two results are | bound to be made manifest. the first and most important of whict would be the fostering of that spirit of CO operation among all the people of the territory and from this would naturally follow the second and desired result that Of batter service and lower rates of transportation.
 Alaska is to be one of the grea states of the union and it will become such through the work and effort of Ala skans. The slogan should then be "Alastsa for Alas and all good people he welcome to come and be- come Alaskans. .--Alaeka Daily Capi- tall

 The committe req ffirmed the reso-

OF THE TOURIST
 TRADE

The statement that the tourist trade has been worth seO.OOO. 900 to British col,pnfta this year conveys lesson that Alaskans and American .rnns- portat;on companies should learn British Columbia is T wonderful country, and possesses appealing at fractions for tourists. Yet Alaska's scenic grandeur and beauty is even greater. If Alaska had transportat ion facilities and accomodations that were equal to those of British Columbia the tourist trade would b. worth as much to :his territory as it is to tlV CanTd- ian province.
 There is no line O. business thSt produces better profits than that of Catering to tourists. II was through the tourist business more than any thing else that Southern California was developed. anl if contributed lar sely to the -ap'6 growth and de- velopsnent of Florida. It has done even more for large sections of Eu- rop-. 2 nd the summer tourist trade us- ually is greater than thn: of winter.
 Twenty million dollars is a large sum of money. There has been but one or two years in the history of Alaska when the gold output reached this aEnpurt.

AERO CLUB FOR JUNEAU URGED

Speaking before .he Alfred John Bratlford Post No. ! American Legion. Burt M. Mcconnell. Associate Editor of the Literary Digest, advocated the formation of an Aero Club in this city ns a means of opening up aerial cons mun;cation between Juneau and the States and also to the Interior sections Of the Territory. In connection with this Mir. Mcconnell req, . telegram he received since his arrival here from Capt. Street, comnan nder of the Alas ka Flyers Squadron endorsing the idea.
 In t'l.s message Capt. Street said: Understand you are visiting Juneau and your interest in aviation may help tEe cause in that locality, Juneau should have a landing field and the idea of an aero club there is heartily endorsed by us. Juneau should lead the cities cf Alaska with the advance n'ses1t of av:ation."
 MT. Mcconnell. who is member of q New York post of the American Legion. is also a member of the Aero Club of America. He discussed the subject at length. especially in rela- ton Of the establishment of landing fields here to commercial development of aviation in the Terudrory.
 After the discussion. .he Executive Committee was instructed to appoint special committee to cooperate with the Junaau Cogntnercial Association to see whh: could be accomplished to- ward securing landing field. No ac- tion vas taken as to forming an aero club.

 LEGION
(Contiinued from last issue)
The American Legion in Convention Assembled at Cleveland, Ohio, Sep-
 tenber P, 2e and 29th 1920

The conventions reaffirmation of it's determination to make it's work f'r the sick anI wounded T Irimary aim was contained in comprehensive program of recommended improve ments for .he Bureau of War Risk In surance, the United States Public Health Service, the Rehabilitation sec- ton of the Federal Board for Voca- tional Education, and Government Hospi.alizltfon agencies which was adopted by the convention.
 The mos. important feature of this was the recommendation that q new cabinet officer be appointed to have direct control over all these Gov- ernment functions. Duplication of work by the various Bureaus under the present system was cited in the recommendation that the Legion could have no greater accomplishment than securing the passage of a law which would coordinate all the Government agencies dealing with the wounded and disabled men, including the Bu- reau of War Risk Insurance.
 The convention declared with de- termination that the Legion should press ahead in its fight for justice to all veterans by continuing to cham pion before Congress the fourfold plan of beneficial legisation. embodying adjusted compensation, which already has passed the House of Representa- uives and now awaits action by the Senate. By a vote practically unan- imous the convention recorded itself in favor of all four of the provisions which the bill conta.ns-for aid in buying houses and farms, for voca- tional tIairfng, fn land settlement and for adjusted cash compensation based on length of service.
 In so far as the convention was T of Legion sentiment, it's ac- tfon on the last day at Cleveland with reference to politics made it plain. th1t there is an overwhelming feeling thru out t;le rank and file of the organ niza- tion that the fundamentaIs of ts-S Legion Constitution. and especially that part of it declaring the Lsgfon to he non-political and non partisan, should not be tampered With. even by interpretat!ve or clarifying resolu- tions.
