is arrived at by taking the pre-war

Average Income Small.
This sum. which neglects the rise

STUDIOS BEING BUILT
 IN ALASKA

Work has been started at Anchor age on the first unit to be occupied by the Alaska Moving Picture Cor poration, and later permanent headquarters will also be erected in Cordova. The building at Anchorage will be 50 by 140 feet when com pleted. The plans are so drawn as to allow additions both east and west to the first unit, which is now practically under construction. The first unit will have 36-foot cell ing with an oval roof. The construc- tion is under the supervision of Lewis and Bliss. contractors. About 30 men have been put to work and it Is the intention to rush the work as rapidly as possible.
 The corporation is in splendid f. nacial condition, the entire stock of $75,000 having been subscribed or promised, according to Captain A. B.. Lathrop, president and general man ager. Captain Lathrop. who has had large experience in construction and financial matters, has assumed charge of the details and will be in charge of all work, both connected with the construction and other i'm portant matters connected with the corporation.
 Recently returned from Portland, Captain Lathrop states that the final arrangements for shipping the equip ment and moving picture parapherna- lia have been attended to and reser- vations made for the cast, consisting of about twenty people.
 The choice of stars and subordi- nate actors will be left to the dis erection of L. H. Moomaw and G. E.. Lewis, who are vitally interested in the corporation
 MT. Moomaw and MT. Lewis are experienced moving picture men and are credited with being high up in the profession. The electricians and stage and scene builders will leave Seattle for Anchorage about the first of the year, at which time Captain Lathrop advises, the build ing will be practically completed. Owing to the persistent demand Captain Lathrop states that the books will be closed before the first of the year.
