DOrt Tells Of Big Powersite
 Locations

That there are only four water power sites in southeastern Alaska with from 1000 to lO,0OO horsepower and that most of the other quite numerous water power sites could only supply from two to five thou sand horsepower, an amount insuf- Gcient for their economic develop ment in the paper and pulp industry, was the information given ont 0y J. c. Dort. water power engineer for the United States f1resU service who came north May 23 and has Teen making an extensive investigation of the water power site& Tn southeastern Alaska all summer.
 These water power sites are To- cated at Punch bowl in rtudyard hay; Mink bay, an arm of Boca-de-Qua. dra; Takatz bay on the east coast of Baranoff island and Blue lake near Sitka. These last two sites would furnish 10000 horsepower.
 They also have in their vicinity timber areas containing spruce and Eemlock, which are the principal Alaskan woods used in the manufac- ture of pulp. It is estimated that southeastern Alaska has from 10 to ! 20 per cent spruce and from 50 t' i5 per cent hemloCk. The cost, Er. Dort thinks, would run from go 10 $l3O per mechanical horsepower fer the larger projects. There are suf- fcient of these kinE Ur sites to pro- vide power for the development of all commercial timber ill the IUn- gass national forest.
 MT. Dort made a trip to Anchor age the last of October to jnyesti- gate a site in the Anchorage district. ] He is now at work compiling data on his summers work wLica will be D. hlished as a bulletin next summer together with a COmion bulletin on timber resources. MT. DOrts re- port will include information regard ing power sites, storage reservoirs, costs of dam CORst -uction, and will ]. be illustrated with numerous photo graphs taken by him this summer of natural storage lakes back in the mountains, dam sites, timber areas ! and harbOrs.
 MT. Dort expects to be in this vicinity for the next two weeks be- fore leaving for his headquarters in San Francisco. He will make field trip to Baily bay, Shelockum and Swan lake at the head of Carol in- let to the guage stations there to check up on the ratings. The re- mainder of the time he will spend compiling data for his report which will be published " the forest ser vice to promote the development of paper and pulp manufacture in the territory so as to bring about the utilization of forest and water pow or resources in Alaska.

MOk Moon Is On Trial For
 Gong Murier

Ketchikan, Dec. 2-Charged with murder in the first degree for the death of Louie Gong, who was shot on Mission street on March 2G. of this year, Mok Moon, Chinese, was placed on trial in the United States district court this morning at 10 O. clock, before Judge T. M. Reed and a jury.
 The selection of a jury was made in record time, the twelve men who are to hear the evidence and decide the fate of the acuzed taking only one hour and ten minutes. Several of those drawn as jurors in the case were excused because of their belief that capital punishment should not be inflicted in any case. One juror was excused because of an opinion on the merits of the case.
 The jury as finally accepted and sworn at 1l:2O o'clock was as fol- lows. O. F. McCombs, J. K. Doyle, W. Walther, Elmer Capp, Leonard Campbell, Peter Amundsen, Elmer Hall, Earl p. Baker, G. s. Talbot W. L. Buuard and C. c. MuRdy.
 Opening Statements.
 Prosecuting the case are United States Attorney Arthur G. Shoup and two assistants, L. o. Gore and A. E.. Maltby. The latter made the open ing statement of the prosecution to the jury. He sad that the govern meut would prove hat the accused and Louie Gong were in a restaurant in Indiantown on Sunday, March 26;
 that they had some heated words over money matters, that Moon went out and to his room where he got his
 revolver. that later the men met on
 the street and Moon shot him, the bullet entering the left side just be- low the heart and going down thru the spinal column with the result that the lower portion of the body was paralyzed and that later from
 the results of the wound that Gong died in China.
 Judge W. A. Holzheimer, appear ing as counsel for the defense, said that he would undertake to prove that the men, Moon and Gong, were members of the same tong, that the latter had at numerous times taken money from the defendant and had claimed at repeated times that Moon owed him money, regardless of the 1 fact that he had paid several times what had been claimed to be due. He said the evidence would further show that the men had quarreled that Gong had said he would kill Moon, and that both left the restau- l rant and went to get revolyers. Further. the defendant expected 10 show to the satisfaction of the jury that when Moon came back from his room he again went to the restau- rant but was called by Gong; that
 the men approached each other and
 as they got within few feet of each other that Gong made a motion as though to pull a gun and that Moon had beat him to it.
 Counsel also intimated that he would show in the Course of the trial 1 that the tong was anxious to secure i a conviction of the accused and was bending it's efforts to rnat end. As it was nearly noon when coun- sel completed their opening state
 meuts a recess was taken until 2 o'clock this afternoon at which time the first witness was to be called.
