DIAMONDS IN ALASKA,
 BELIEF OF YAKIMA MAN

Frank w. Cameron of Yakima, Wash, in a letter to a Cordova friend asks for reliable data concerning AL aska's known oil fields, for the use of himself and a number of other oil men with~whom he has been as- sociated and he also asks this ques- tion:
 "Please state whether the vicin- ity of Katmai volcano on the AL aska Peninsula yet has been pros pected by experienced miners, and whether they saw any indications of bluec lay and pot holes. I have. an idea that diamonds in great quanti- ties will be found in that neighbor- hood"
 MT. Cameron was an oil develop ment pioneer in South Texas when the Beaumont gushers came in. He is now associated with Barney Folk and others in experimental opera tions in the Rattlesnake Hill re- zion of Eastern Washington They own leases covering many thousands of acres and gas wells have been de- veloped; but no oil in commercial quantities.
 MT. Cameron's inquiry was in re- sponse to message from Cordova friend, who told of the oil seepage in the Katalla district. He said he was coming to Cordova this summer.

Who Flew First?
Now Work pOct


 In 1903 the Wright brothers and s. P. Langley, after years of independent work approached at the same time the final tests of their flying machines. Langley made two trials the Potomac which completely failed One week after the second trial the Wrights succeeded at Kitty Hawk. Was Lang ley's failure attributable merely to bad launching apparatus has been said, or did it spring from fundamental mechanical defects? This question has repeatedly been before the courts, for patent rights involved and it is still subject of heated dis cussion among experts In the December issue of the Journal of the Aeronautical Society, British publication views of Mr Griffith Brewer that the Langley machine incapable of sustained flight, and the rebuttng views of pr. Walcot secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, Dr. Zahm, MT. Glenn Curtiss and others presented at length
 The controversy centers around the trials made of the Langley machine at Hammondsport, N. Y., in June 1914 The Curtss Aeroplane Company had been made defendant in actions for infringement to make full test of the Langley craft an offer which Dr. Walcott accepted. Dr. Zahm reported the test for the Smithsonian Institution declaring it marked success. It is charged by MT. Brewer that essential changes made in the machine before successfully flew, and it is admitted the other side that changes made, though it is contended they unimportant Dr. Zahm writes that it is not claimed that Langley invented the aeropane, but he certainly claimed in 1914 that Langley built "the first man-carryng aeropane capable of sustained free flight" He does claim that the Langley machine actually made sustained flights He only holds that from the short flights of overloaded and less efficient plane may infer the feasibility of longer flight with lighter and more efficient plane of the type' inference which others might deny. The essential question, however, is the of the extent of the changes made in the Langley machine at Hammondsport.
 The controversy has double interest. It affects the measure of credit be divided between the Wrights and Langley, though would under any circumstances deny the latter endur- ing fame inventor, and it affects patent rights. The only certain way to terminate the controversy hold another test under auspices the impar- tiay of which can in no wise be questioned.

APPOINTMENT IS DESERVED.

The selection of Charles D. Garfield by the Ter 1..orial Fish Commission for Superintendent of Hatch cries. as announced last Saturday. is that should receive endorsement of the great body of Aaskans who have heart the best interests of the Alaskan

 MT. Garfelds interest in the fisheries is of long standing. He of the leaders in the organ- zaton of the Alaska Fish and Game Club which under took foster the initial movement in the Territory to stock streams with game fish and to study ques- tons relative to the preservation of Aaska's salmon supply. He made Secretary of the first Terri torial Fish Commission which position he still holds. energies researches connected with the fisheries n dustry and his knowledge the subject is probably equal to, if indeed not greater than, that of any other Alaskan. He has represented the Territory hearings both at home and abroad fisheries ques tons and in doing rendered valuable service. He possessed in remarkable degree the confidence of former Gov. Thomas Riggs who worked with him in hearty accord on fisheries problems. It appar- ent that Governor Bone also has placed that same confidence in him. In combining the position Sec retary of the Commission with that of Superintendent of Hatcheres, the members of the Commission did the logical thing and it's selection of MT. Garfield the combined office is ideal.
