PIONEER SCOUT INCREASES
 PUBLICATIONS

The Pioneer Scout has started a weekly publication. Heretofore the Scout has maintained bi-monthlv edition, but the Publisher, Walter J. Marx. states that Tn order to keep up with the present era of prosper ity in Teller, and in order to give Teller a little more distinction, he has decided to make the Pioneer Scout a weekly edition until further notice. This goes to prove that the newspaper Is generally among the first to anticipate the needs of a community and 1t Is very seldom that the newspaper is not directly responsible for the many improve ments that will take place in the live communities from time to time. Publisher Marx Is to be commended in anticipating the needs of his com- munity in a way that Is a credit to the newspaper profession.

ID case or accident. Al tho weather Is usially clear and no darkness comes at night. an air patrol will make forced landings . different matter from such accidents In trans- oceanic flights.
 It is logical to suppose that the northern air fleet will be divided in- to two squadrons, Asiatic and Euro pean. The first will fly from Chin csc, Japanese and Siberian centers to Alaska. The other will, make the other transverse across the Pole to Northern Europe. Alaska must not only become the central service sta- tion. but provide immense ware houe facilities as well.
 The schedule will provide one day for each plane for each trip. One day at each end will be further re- quired for loading and repairs. Thus the entire fleet will spend at leas, one third of it's time In Alaska. There will be ample demands on AL askan resources for fuel. building material and supplies.
 Easing estimates on the new Army plane as unit, and upon the known European aircraft, 1t is clear that even during the curtailed flying sea son of the Arctic, a freight tonnage could be carried fully equal both In weight and in value to that by water borne shipping of today. Taking into consideration the element of time as well as the reduced cost of aircraft made In quantity. we find that freight rates must then come down to an average of 10 to 25 per cent.
 What course of action we should pursue is an exceedingly complicated question. For many reasons 1t ap- pears that we shall have to be satis- fled with making a virtue of neces- { sity. If Europe and Asia are going to trade substantially over the top of the globe. something no well-in- formed person now can doubt. the United States must largely be short circuited. That we have Alaska Is a piece of gorgeous luck. We are in , the position of fruit vendor who chanced to buy piece of land that in later years became gold mine because 1t turns ont to be situated | on a busy corner of metropolis. The vendor can sell his corner. We can't. that Is. we never would. But { we at least can realize the possibili- ties of the corner itself, and we should make the service station pay for all 1t is worth.

ALASKA IS SEEN AS GREAT
 BASE FOR NEW WORLD AIR
 TRAFFIC BY ONE WHO KNOWS

of hunters and trappers. Now. Ed monton has 60.000 inha abitants. The ether day a coal deposit estimated at 32,000.000 tons was discovered in Saskatchewan. oil Is flowing with in stone's throw of the Arctic Circle. The Hudson Bay Reindeer Company. one of the great future meat industries of the hemisphere. leased 11s.oO0 square miles for its pasture.
 Tn our own Alaska Presiden; Harding has driven the last spike of our new 415-mile railroad, tapping that half-milliou wonderful square miles of land. The Navy has put $1.oO0,O00 into it's coal mine there. The original thousand rein deer imported as an experiment. have increased to the enormous number of 3O0.O00. From this herd 1t Is estimated that the annual out put of carcasses in twenty years will be well above | million. Unnues- tionably we shall live to see the rein deer as one of the worlds chice sources of meat supply. Already in Norway and Sweden tons of reindeer steaks are eaten every year. This spring fifteen hundred reindeer car. casses were shipped to New York by way of San Francisco and the Panama Canal. The meat sold on carcass basis at thirty five cents a pound.
 Great Progress Abroad
 In America we are surprisingly ig- norant of the leaping progress com mercial aviation has made abroad. True. we have our postal service of the air and our military aviators make a few stunt flights each sea- son. But as to the way European alrways have developed since the war not one American in 6 hundred .S property iukOI Heu.
 Who knows. for instance. that an air service within the Arctic Circle has been In full commission for more than three years. It is the project of the Royal Swedish Waterfalls or ganization, and carries passengers. freight and mail. This line should make a serious bid in years to come for the transpolar business. Then there Is the Newfoundland Squadron operated by the Aerial Survey Com pany. which works up the Labrador coast to the Eskimo settlements In the North.
 France is the worlds air leader. In 1922 French planes (commerc'aD flew 2,79s,44s kilometers, carrying 6.S41 passengers and about 1,00o,- 900 pounds of freight. Accidents have become so infrequent that the risk of travel in the air is today lit- tie more than by train; certainly not to be compared with the pedestrian's peril at almost any city crossing.
 Our army has announced the de- velopment of a new type of plane that will lift 10000 pounds, and travel more than 100 miles per hour. With such plane as uni: let us visualize polar air fleet.
 The flying season in the North may be limited to between May and September 90. During that period daylight and fair weather are a reasonably continuous assurance. The average temperature will be around the forties and Afties above zero. although In Alaska as high as 110 degrees Fahrenheit has been re- corded in the summer. Since there are no great land masses known to exist In the Polar Sea. air currents unquestionably will be more gentle ard undisturbed than over the land. The unbroken ice-fields provide practically unlimited landing space
The Nome nugget., 1923-12-15

So the plan produced by the two ex- plorers was geographical rather than commercial. We entered the war and the flight was never made. Peary died. But the results are liv- ing lust the same.
 This year Amundsen planned to fly from Alaska to his native Nor way He had to postpone his plan another year. He or some other man lucky enough to be on the ground will succeed. The feat Is TO longer a particularly spectacular or heroic one. Using twenty four hours of sunlight. planes that hop 2,000 miles with scarcely an effort and smooth landing areas on the sea-ice al, the way. the average modern aviator would put the task far be- low the perilous crossing of our peak-rihbed Cont'net.
 Now let ue get down to first prin- ciples for a moment. Suppos" two great reservoirs are connected with a pipe. Once the pipe Is open, gray ity does the rest. Flow beg'rs at once and continues in flood so long as the other reservoir will well come It.
The Nome nugget., 1923-12-15
Whore Gravity Comes In

Specific gravity applies to trade as we'll as to liquids. Europe and Asia are two stupendors reservoirs for the reception of every kind of raw product. The chart of the top of the globe will show that Europe and Asia lie at the ends of roughly rectangular pipelike area formed by tho Polar Sea. The walls of this ripe are American on the one hand. Russian on the other. Like sentin- els a. the p,pe-ends stand two fam ous capes-North Cape and Point Barrow. The one shall be the land mark for the departure and arrival; the other the signpost for our store house in the North.
 From Aslatic capitals to Point Barrow Is about 2.soo miles. From Point Barrow to North Cape. the European step-oft for the flight. Is m equal distance. Alaska, then. in addition to being on the course i'self besides having all the natural re- sources such as traffic would re- ouire, is miraculously almost exactly at the midpoint of the route.
 The active parties to this northern commerce of the air probably will be Japan and Britain. Those two great inland empires are, and always will be restless. Such is the penalty of their geographical predicament. It Is reasonable, then, to suppose that they will organize and direct the early success 0. the polar fligh's.
 But 1t must not be forgotten that simple trade statistics are our surest gulde to what will happen. In 1922 our export to Japan and other Asi- a'ic countries tota'ed s4S0.S55, ,46s. To Scandinavia and Northern Eu- rope we exported about 5O0.0o0,00 worth of goods. We were thus In q central position. exporting apnroxi- mately equal amounts in opposite d. rections.
 Assume that the United States does not exist Interpose an area of oren water in our place. The two great buyers of our goods would then face one another. Northern Europe and Asia would then ex- change their products and their raw materials where once they bought from us. Nothing would please them better.
 Have 6 look at Canada and the dreaded "barren lands" of but a few years ago. When we fought tie Spanish-American war, towns like Edmonton were picturesque outposts

sons will enter the University Of
Washington. Ralph completed his
first year at the University of North
Dakota last year while Paul gradual
ed from the Wilton high school, and
will enter the university this fall.
