Mr. Garfield's wire to the Asso-
ton said:
Naval Radio Commandant advises
that reduction of personnel recently
voted by Congress makes reduction
CT scope of radio communication ne
cessary. The primary stations at
Ke.chikan, Sitka, and st. Paul will
operate continuously with efficiency
thus reducing the personnel at Jul

Mr.. Garfield also said that the
Alaska Bureau had filed objections

lar service and all local communica-
ton through the station would be
stopped The only duty would be
clearing of incoming ships at GER

done by the local station will be
handled by Sitka. II don't know

the Commercial Association had not
given up hope of being able to have

RUTH HARAMY UPON
REACHING JERUSALEM

Mildred E. White, graduate Of Earl

Straughn, having arrived safely at the
Friends Palestine mission at Ram Al
lah, Jerusalem. Palestine. has written
to the local Friends office describing
her trip. The letter follows.
II thoroughly enjoyed my trip and
made many interesting friendships.
Mr.. and Mrs. George Williams, of
Huntington Park, Calf, were my
travelling companions.
"Mr. and Mrs. Kelsey and Ruth
Haramy met me in Jerusalem, and
when l arrived at the Girls school the
American. flag was waving SO / had
quite homecoming. The wind was
strong and Miss Jones could not raise
the flag to the top of the staff That
evening our neighbors the Church Mis-
sionary society missionaries, inquired
why the flag was at half-mast and
whether it was in mourning for the
pope.
"The first village we visited was
Abu Shkhadini, Moslem village,
where the teacher herself could read
no further than her Arabic second
reader. Strange to say, however, she
showed real teaching ability, and her
little pupils were progressing finely
"The schools varied a good deal,
found. Some were clean, light rooms,
made attractive with calendars, pic
lures, cards, ETC., from America and
with bouquets of wild flowers The
boys come to the Christian teacher
every day for one period of English,
and we heard them recite. Their
teacher was learning with them from
the child's reader. The sewing class
/ is proving a great drawing card The
Moslem mothers are being convinced

even for girl.

the news spread like magic, and lit

ragged orphans, people with family
quarrels to be settled, and mother
with sick babies collected about to
ask for help. l was much impressed
by the way the little group crowded
about"
