TENTATIVE HYDROPLANE
 COMPANY ORGANIZED

Last Saturday evening a meeting was held to consider the feasibility of organizing hydroplane company for commercial purposes. Mir. Full lerton appeared before the assembly and submitted data which set forth the cost of purchasing two machines, their cost of operation and the rev enuss to be derived from such . commercial venture.
 According to MT. Fullerton this Alaska country is the most logical country for hydfoplan operations. in as much as the entire peninsula abounds in lakes, lagoons and streams, all of which afford an ideal landing and take of place. The government is now offering suitable hydroplanes for this purpose and the intention is to buy two machines for the new company. It was de- termined that with the mail con- tracts as a working basis the planes. which carry . pilot and 800 pounds surplus weight, can operate success sfully and profitably. As result of the enthusiasm engendered . temporary organization was effected consisting of E. J. Mathews of Seat tie. President, Ralph Lomen. Vice President and Harry c. Gabrielson treasurer and secretary.

Cliff Wood, representative of the United States Veterans Bureau, ar rived in Nome on the Sea Wolf this week. having come down the Yukon to St. Michael. MT. Wood has been in the Territory since January wis., iting the various towns in Alaska His purpose in coming to Alaska is to acquaint the ex-soldiers and ser vice men with the plans devised by the government for their relief and benefit.
 The principal feature of the remedial methods presented is that of insurance, which can be obtained from the government at a cost with in the means of all. ex-service men. Not alone is insurance featured, but any claim arising from participation in the war has it's department for adjudication. Mir. Wood is willing to hear any and all men who feel that something is due them from
 
 the government. The American Legion has established MT. Wood in the Coast Guard Station. where he has regular hours for discussion and explanation of the services to be rendered.
 In setting forth the functions oi the Veterans Bureau MT. Wood states that "The United States Vet erans' Bureau was created upon the endeavor of the service mems organ. ization to eliminate the necessity oi dealing with numerous bureaus by letter in settling established rights The Director of the Veterans Bur eau, Colonel Forbes, complying even more fully with the real desire oi the men, that of dealing directly with an individual, created what were called "Cleanup Sauads' fol every State. These Squads went from town to town in every State in the Union last Fall and Winter
 
 Their primary business, that of the Bureau in getting in touch with all men having disabilities arising 1T or aggravated by service, of course came first. but they also were in structed to be of any possible ser vice in assisting their fellow ex-ser vice men in any matter arising out of service. AS we were all ex-ser vice men. this was eagerly ant gladly done.
 The Veterans Bureau desire the r.L:ation of sitrs colapei ,a service, freely and willingly. Col onel Forbes instructions are ''iI case of doubt the veteran is to gel all the benefit of the doubt" =. s..s haze hean raised and trained

 Ex-service men were astonished to find money, medical treatment and other attention due them from sources and causes of which they knew nothing. Woods talk was continually punctuated by the inter lection of some fellow that's me" |" then would follow signing of papers on the dotted line, the rata tat-tat of an eager typewriter. after which the talk would proceed until some one else "got hit"
