Department of the Interior:
Officials of the Alaskan engineering
commission state that, now that steel

is 1t wonderfully scenic ride. but
the Mount Mckinley National park,

However, tourist travel within the
park will be possible this year for only

there absolutely no accommodations
within the park, but there are no

Old Naval Officers Face Hard Times

EIFTY- NINE old sea dogs of the
American navy are in trouble. This
is n group of naval officers who in
some cases have served as far back as
1898 and were formerly officers of the
naval auxiliary service. II appears
that in the days in which they took an
active part in the navy, they received
some sort of an indefinite promise that
duty as long as they were alive and
also that in later years their families
would receive pensions. The branch
of the service in which they served
was organized I'm 1893 to command
naval supply vessels But in the emer-
gency of 1917 congress arbitrarily
forced these old-time auxiliary officers
into the newly organized naval reserve.
Under their auxiliary organization
they were accorded the same amount
Of pay and other benefits as the regu-
lars. But since their enforced entry
into the naval reserve of 1917 they
have become part of the organized
reserve, which under the present naval
bill will be greatly reduced

was the first officer of the supply ship
Zafiro. which went with Admiral
Dewey's fleet into Manila bay in 1898,

Creek, is about fifteen miles north of
Broad Pass, through which the rail
road crosses the main Alaska range.
Here is being constructed by Maurice
MorinO, a local homesteader, q large
log roadhouse to accommodate local
travel. Mr.. MOrinO has also made ap-
plicatiOn 10 erect this coming sum-
mer six shelter tents within the park,
which will contain stoves and bedding
for travellers who. however. must
bring their own food supplies.
Another local homesteader, z. J..
Lynch. will also conduct a r0adhOuse
at Mckinley Park station These ac-
cOmmodations are principally for
miners and prOspectOrs going into the
Kantishna mining district. The few
tourists who may desire to get into the
park 10 view the wild herds of carl
bou and mountain sheep to which the
park offers sanctuary will be able TO
outfit with pack animals and secure
guides at Mckinley Park station.
Travel conditions and hotel accom-
modations along established lines of

and river steamer will be about as in
the rural districts of the United
States, but travel away from the es-
tablished lines is practically impos-
Sible at present.

Mr.. Swing said the unified project

thOrized under the bill 10 use the

ileges at the dam will be sold or
leased under governmental regulations
which will guarantee an equitable dis

The proceeds from the sales and

uniform and is commanding officer
of the training ship RappahannOck at
San Diego, Cal, in a letter to Presi-
dent Harding has appealed to him to
ask for the setting aside of the small
amount of pay that will keep those 80
old sea heroes from starvation, If the
reduction should go through. He says
that there are two simple means
whereby the unfortunate condition
could now be remedied.
The first is to transfer those of
ficers TO the regular service as an
extra number in the grade out of the
line of regular promotions and retain
them for service on auxiliary ships.
The second is that retirement pay
privileges equal To those accorded reg
ular officers should at least be pro-
vided. The latter would cost the gov
eminent only 100000 a year.
