MANY PURCHASERS OF
 TREASURY CERTIFICATES
 REPORTS GOVERNMENT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27. - "Treas- ury Savings Certificates are finding favor in foreign lands as well as in every section of the country and our outlying possessions" said Lew Wal lace, Jr., Director of the U. s. Govern ment Savings System. Every state in the Union has purchasers, and the Treasury receives orders from Alas ka, Hawaii, the Philippines, the Canal Zone, the Virgin Islands and Porto Rico. But it is not alone in the Unit ed States and it's possessions that this savings security is in demand. Orders also come from Canada, Cuba, Mexico, San Domingo and Peru, while just re- gently there was a request for infor- mation about the certificates from Rome, Italy. Some of the purchasers of the certificates in these distant lands take the limit, $5,O00, while others buy the smallest denomination, a S25 certificate. This widespread sale shows that the savings spirit is becoming an American trait, for usu- ally these purchasers of certificates are American citizens"

The outlook was never better around Talkeetna and on Iron creek, accord ing to reports brought back by wis itors to that district The prospec- tors are finding larger bodies of base ores. as we'll as several important dis coveries of free-milling ores. The district suffers for want of transporta- tion. but this will soon come. Among the most recent finds is one of free milling ore on Clear creek. It is tn } general opinion that the region is des- tined to have a marked effect upon tonnage for the railroad and that the next year will see much development prosecuted.

SAYS JIM HILL SAW FUTURE
 OF ALASKA

'When I am in Fairbanks, and hear the people talk as though the whole interior of Alaska is worthless, I won der if my point of view is wrong," wrote Mrs. wv. Clarke, to Fairbanks friends, on her recent departure for California. For when I go out to the
 head of Cleary for the week and climb to the top of Pedro Dome and take good long look, can see, as far as the eye can reach, creeks and divides that are hardly scratched, which are our treasure houses, beautiful Mount Me KinIey and the hills and valleys GOV cred with changing light and shadows.
 And then my mind reverts back to almost twenty-five years ago when James J. Hill (the great Empire build er) said to me that he wished he were a young man and could build the railroads that Alaska was sure to have. He said the country will be dotted with farms, that there will be network of railroads, just as we have in the states, colleges, schools, homes, I pondered, while thinking Of this-of Jas. Hills marvellous vision seeing more then than the people who are seeing the starting of these things right here-and I said to myself that the way I see things from Pear Dome is the correct view. l met some people on Cleary recently anu while talking about the country told them that I owned from Chata- nika to Pedro Dome (not the ground but everything above the ground) as the view. the birds, the bracing alr' trees, flowers, had become a part oi myself.

MINER MAKES
 FIRST TRIP OUT . IN MANY YEARS

On his first trip Outside since 1858 s. Hogan arrived in Juneau recently from Skagway enroute to Tenakee for a short visit to California, says the Juneau Empire. MT. Hogan went in to the gold country with the big rush and has lived along the Yukon since that time. For a number of years he has been at Dawson and is interested in property in the Mayo region.
 "Juneau seems like a city to me- said MT. Hogan. 'I saw it only few hours while the boat was here in '9S, on my way North, and then it was a rough mining camp, but with much more hustle and life than is shown now. Twenty-four years is some time to be away from the Outside, but the Outside comes to us every summer and we see quite as many people as we would making trip to the states
 To meet MT. Hogan and talk with him one would think he had recently arrived here from the States rather than the North, where he has lived continuously so many years.
 FUTURE OF YUKON
 MT. Hogan is optimistic for the flu, ture of the Yukon country and says the people in that district have much confidenceJ in the Mayo and Keno Hill mining regions. About 5000 tons of ore will be shipped out from that district in the spring, he said.
 The tractor which has recently been imported by the Treadwell Mining company has proved a big improve ment over the old method of hauling by horse teams and is a big factor v the solving of the transportation problem, MT. Hogan said. The use of the tractor has allowed greates speed in transporting the ore and has reduced the expense of transportation
 "All of us old prospectors live on hopes, you know, and that makes life worth the living" said MT. Hogan but while we have lived on hopes for the future of Dawson for some time we are now confident that the town will come back somewhat because of the recent development of claims in that vicinity.

GERMANY SEEKS
TRADE Squirt
IN RUSSIA
British Watch Teuton
Moves for Reviving
of Stricken
Land.
BY DAVID N CHURCH

fsTAFF CORRESPONDENT l. N sERVlcEl
LONDON, april. - Germany IS
making most strenuous efforts to
bring about E revival of trade with
Russia according to authoritative
reports received here
Numerous German organizations
have been formed for tho purpose
of reviving Russian trade, n the
operations of these organizations
are being anxiously watched in the
British trade circles
One OF the organizations created
In Germany TO bring about a Rus
sian rade revival is the German
Trust for the Exploitation of Rus
STA. headed by K Muller. which is
understood to be seeking American
support This trust Is understood
to be opposed to British or French
participation. but IS anxious to
create a. German-American fund for
the reconstruction OF Russian rail
ways, through the house of J. p,
Morgan &c Co. Tt is understood that
the trust is negotiating with Chich-
erin and Krassin for concessions.
One of the most important devel-
opments reported here is the con-
clusion OF an agreement between
the German Aero Union. the Zeppe-
lin interests and representatives of
Soviet Russia for the exploitation
OF aerial lines between the two
countries An aerial line is shortly
TO be i~nauzureted between Konigs-
berg. in East Prussia. and Moscow.
SEEK CONTROL OF PORTS
The Gerrnan-Rtess.an Navigation
Company q been created in Berlin
by the Soviet delegation with the
Hamburg-Anneriea line to control
the Baltic ports. The Hamburg
America interests. the SHINES
group. and the British Arm Of Arm
strong have foaaned a syndicate for
tho exploitathon of Petrograd port,
a concession for which has been
promised by the Soviet govern
ment. 1t IS proposed to transform
Petrograd into a free port.
German banks are In closest ne
~gotiations with the Soviet state
banks relative TO the extensions Of
credits, and 1T Is reported that there
are dealings now in progress which
may result IN huge mining conces-
sions on the part of Russia TO Ger
many.
British trade representatives are
becoming apprehensive of the steps
which have been taken b ythe Ger
mans and fear that when Russia
comes back into the world as a
trader h a Germany will be in a
position TO control the cream of the
Russian tTads. There is apparently
TO disposition on the part of the
Germans 10 seek aid in these pro-
jects from Groat Britain, but on the
other hand the German fnanciers
are displaying a desire to secure CO.
operation from financial interests in
the United States.
