ALASKA DAY ONE OF
 BEST CELEBRATED

SEATTLE, Oct. 2O.-Seattle this year held one of the best Alaska Day programs since she began the observ- ance of the anniversary uf the pur- chase of the Territory. w. T. Perkins in a speech at Seward monument, in Volunteer Park, spoke in the highest terms of the statesmanship of the former secretary.
 B. c. Forbes frankly confessed that he knew but little about Alaska, but declared that the center of lhe worlds activities has crossed the Atlantic, and is now crossing the continent, headed towards Alaska and Siberia,
 Tn making the principal Alaska Day address, Falcon Joslin said that the salmon packing industry amounted to $34,000,000 this year, and that this fish was but one of several varie ties of the many successful fishing indus tries. He said that the herring pack had jumped from nothing to 130,O00 barrels this year. The United States, which uses a million barrels of her ring annually, gets most of it's supply from Scandinavian countries. If Alas ka should produce the total supply it would add twenty million dollars an nually to her wealth. The halibut in duStrV was worth five million dollars a year to Alaska he said.

NEW MANAGER LOOKS FUR HEAVY TRAVEL
 OVER ALASKAN ROAD

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 20-"The fact that no surtax is charged upon tourist travel in the Alaskan wonder land found so attractive by the late President Harding has diverted the tide of pleasure seekers from Europe to such a degree, that there were not half enough boats to meet the tourist demand from the United States to Seward this year." said Lee H. Landis, general manager of the Alaska Rail- road this afternoon.
 He later declared that President Farley of the U. s. Shipping Board had promised Landis full cooperation in supplying ships to Seward to han dle the increasing tourist travel the coming summer.
