RIVER TRANSFORMATION
 AGREEMENT IS SETTLED

Negotiations between the Alaskan Engineering Commission and the
 White Pass relative to the operation of Government and White Pass
 boats on the Yukon and Panama riv-
 CTS during the coming summer, have been concluded, acording to inform ation obtained by Walter F. Scott, we'll known former resident of Ne mana, who arrived from the States several days ago. NIT. Scott was in formed that an agreement had been reached between the commission and the transportation company under the terms of which the Canadian t. ats will operate between Dawson and Nenana and the Government boats will operate between Nenana and St. Michael. The Canadian boats will bring all of the ore from Mayo to Nenana for shipment to the coast by way of the Government railroad and handle all the passenger traffic between the upper Yukon and Nena- na. The Government boats will SUD- ply the frieght requirements along the lower Yukon and St. Michael, including possibly large shipments of coal for the Nome district. l. is understood Ernie Barteau will have charge of the White Pass offices at Nenana, and that the White Pass boats operating on the river will be the steamers Alaska and Yukon, formerly in service between Nenana and Dawson.
 Mir. Scott also heard, on good au- thority that a definite decision had been reached at Washington to turn the Alaska Railroad over to the Alaska Road Commission, with Col. J c. Steese in charge. The news reaching Nenana previously was to the effect that such step was con- templated but not definitely decided upon. The transfer of authority, Mir. Scott was told, would take place on the first of May.
 Conditions along the Pacific coast Mir. Ccott says, are fairly good but no: yet normal Steady demands for lumber are keeping the lumber districts busy. but the agricultural districts are far from prospering. As result of the depression in the farming industry the city of Spo- kane has lost 12,0O0 of it's popula- tiQn during the last year.
 The busiest place along the coast is Los Angeles, with the population that is rapidly approaching the mil lion mark and an area that is ex- banding steadily in all directions. Lumber shipments coming in through the port Of San Pedro for building operations in Los Angeles , and suburbs have reached such pro-

the channels often get lore and irri.
tated. obiiging you to seek relief
two or three times during the night.
To help ~neutralize these irritating
acids, to help cleanse the kidneys
and flush off the body's urinous
waste, get four ounces of Jad Salts
from any pharmacy here; take a
tablespoonful in n glass of water
before breakfast for a few days. and
your kidneys may then act fine.
This famous salts Is made from the
acid OF grapes and lemon juice, com.
