 Members of the Committee have agreed that the charges made by the Attorney General are sufficiently se- rious to justify an Investigation said Chairman Foster. "Mr. knick- erbocker has asked that he be al lowed to present the ocean lines side of the case In fairness not only to these companies but also to the people of Alaska, the Committee be- lieves this should be done.

INTEREST IS
 STIMULATED IN COPPER MINES
Mayflower Property Is Among Prospective
 Big Producers

One of the owners of the May flower copper property, Gus Johnson a pioneer of the Copper River valley, is in Seattle on a business trip, and gave the Alaska Weekly some infor- nation about the big discovery, which development work may prove to be a second Bonanza.
 The Mayflower mine is located on the east side of Kuskulina glacier, and is seventeen miles from Strelna, a point on the Copper River & Northwestern railroad. The mine was located by James Mcconnell and Gus Johnson at about the same time the now famous Mother Lode mine was discovered. The general geological features of these two properties are identical, as the ore deposits occur in Assures and fault planes cutting the Nicolai greensboro and the overlying Cbitistone limestone. The copper min erals occur as high-grade bornite and glance, or chalcocite, in numerous veinlets of from a few inches to one and a half feet in width, the whole in a major vein about thirty feet in width. It can be traced along the fault plane for a distance of about 1000.
 Mining engineers and experts who have examined the property say that by the expenditure of very modest sum of money, properly applied in de velopment work, this fine prospect can be made into a rich copper producer. exceeded by few in the Copper River valley.
 In view of the high grade of the ore and the accessibility of the mine, it can readily be turned into good pro- ducer, and placed on a shipping basis.
 The mounting price of copper, now quoted in New York at F cents per pound, and indications that it will reach 20 cents, has naturally fixed at tention on copper mining, hence pros poets of the MayfloWer type will soon be taken up and financed.

MALCOLM BROCK NOW
 MANAGER OF BUSINESS BEGAN CAREER WITH

The Bakersfield Californian con tains a lengthy account of the reOr- ganization of the firm of Hochheim- CT & Co.,, whose history extends back to the days of Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Senator White and other mo- tables were making California fam nous the world over. The Hochheim- CT business found it's inception in Willows, Calif., in 1876, the broth CTS, Nose and Amiel Hochheimer, being it's founders. This parent busi- ness grew and prospered to an amaz- ing extent, and many years ago the firm began operations in several other California cities. The paper also published a picture of Malcolm Brock, formerly of Cor dova who was recently appointed general manager, and makes the fol- lowing complimentary mention of him:
 "In the latter part of 1921, the management, realizing the need of installing many metropolitan meth ods, decided to place the business under the general management of Malcolm Brock, who began his bus mess career with the Hochheimers at their Willows establishment, man. aging that enterprise from 1902 to 1907. Later Brock engaged in eXten- i've financial and mercantile enter prises in the northwest, where he gained a vast fund of knowledge, which equipped him to successfully handle the position which he is now filling"

How to Keep From Flunking"
was the sermon which Kramer de-

spring messagorof success and one
that took hold of the more youthful
members of the audience with tre-
mendous gripping power. His text
was from Isaaih-1:17, Learn to

The speaker defined man as "a
being who learns" God made a
mistake and an .omnipotent one at
that IL your life is not of tremen-
dous Importance. A half covenant
with life means failure. Demos

take you at your own valuation"
TN order to make good three
things are necessary. The first OF
these Is expressed in the command
