FOUR MONTHS DIFFERENCE
 IN MAIL SERVICE
(Kusko Times)

Speaking of expeditions and efficient mail serivce it may be stated that a copy of the Seward Gateway of Satur- day, April 5, was in the Kusko Times office on Wednesday afternoon, April 9, less than four days after publica- tion. That is real service.
 Without the airplane service by which, of course, it was brought from Fairbanks to McGrath, the Gateway of that date, considering the fact that the last service by trail was sehedul- ed to leave Nenana on April 3, would not have been received by The Times before some time in August, that is if one is to judge by the mail ser vice rendered during the past three or four summers.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HOLDS INTERESTING LUNCHEON; COL.
 LANDS AND OTHERS PRESENT

from the various Hospital societies ln- terested in Alaska, as to their plans for expansion at Seward.
 On the matter of a breakwater for this port, the Secretary reported that a committee of fishermen spoke to him on the immediate necessity for some assistance in insuring the safety of their boats while at Seward; the driving of piling at intervals, connect ed with heavy steel cable was suggest ed as practical, allowing vessel to secure to the cable avoiding the dan ger of smashing against the dock or one another. MT. Daugherty spoke of utilizing the head of the bay, north of the San Juan plant, by building rip rap or other breakwater material, where the water was shallow, but with sufficient depth to allow safe anchor age for fishing craft. MT. Bosworth of Juneau illustrated the benefits to the communities where such break waters existed, stating that boats could be put up for the winter, or safe ly harbored for any length of time in such places and described the one now at Juneau. Colonel Landis said that Colonel Steese could be expected here inside of tn days, and as Delegate Dan \ Suthrland had written the Chamber of a conversation on this subject with | Col. Steese, the matter was carried over until the information and advice necessary could be received from him
 The Committee on bylaws report
 ed satismactory progress, and that the
 bylaws would be presented to the
 Chamber at the next regular meeting
 Under new business, the matter o1
 erecting dolphins East of the present
 dock was brought up by the secretary
 It was suggested that this would al
 low another steamer to lie at the docl
 by tieing up to the dolphins, and alst
 would enable steamers to get away from the dock more satisfactorily il
 contrary winds. Captain Johanser
 mentioned the fact that the Chamber
 should endeavor to have tidal obser
 vation station established along with {
 weather observatory they had request
 ed.
 After the routine business of thu !, Chamber was concluded the Presiden , asked General Manager Landis if h. , would address a few remarks to tn, , Chamber. Colonel Landis responded cheerfully and after complimentinl } the chamber on it's activities, stated h. l had been furnishing the Anchorag : papers with the weather reports alon: the railroad and would be glad to fur , nish them to the Seward paper as h { felt they were valuable record fo : the development of agricultural activ 5 ities. Colonel Landis described the i'm l provements planned for the dock an r for improvements on the floating doc
 and said he would consider the matte ' of dolphins and thanked Captain Jo f hansen for his information. He furthe ) stated that with reference to the re quest of the Seward Chamber flo g space on tn dock for the erection of 7 sign featuring Kenai Peninsula, h t would permit not only the erection o the sign, but would furnish the Cham :.

Landis of the Alaska Railroad, O. A. Johansen, captain of the steamer Starr and MT. Bosworth of Juneau, were present at the meeting.
 After the reading of the minutes by the Secretary, communications were reaG from Delegate Sutherland, the Detroit Board of Commerce, Alaska Railroad and individuals seeking op- rortunities for investment and from persons desiring to make their homes in this section.
 Delegate Sutherland stated that the bill fol the control of the waters of Lowell creek was reported out from the Committee on Territories and that he hored to obtain it's passage before the close of this session of congress. lie asked and recommended report from practical hydraulic men in the community on the possibility of utiliz- ing the gravels and toulders of the creek morain for the construction of a shelter harbor for small boats here. Fc expected the passage of the Alas 1 l. o1l,,ltnI 4n +hn quest of the Chamber that brown bear 1 be considered a menace and not pro- l tected by the closed season. He stated that since his visit to the westward any feeling he might heretofore have had for the protection of this pest was gone and that while heretofore the brown bear had been the cause of con- tention in Washington, he was satls- fled that all the New York naturalists as we'll as Dr. Nelson of the biologlca survey would recommend the destruc' tion of great many of these animals
 The Detroit Board of Commerce urg ed the Chamber to endorse and sup port the Wadsworth Bill, S-76 and the Winslow Bill, H. R. 3243 which pro vided for the creation of a Bureau o1 Aeronautics in Department of Com merce to encourage and regulate the operation of civil aircraft in inter. state and foreign commerce. This mat 0f hJ1CI ness was held over until next meet ing.
 The secretary read some interesting clippings from States papers, on' mentioning that forty anchors were cast at Seward to be used on their tril west by the Around the World Fly ers." These anchors were cast by th' firm of c. M. Brosius. Another iten stated that congress had passed ap propriations of over $600,000 for Alas ka roads and trails and an interestin: article stating that tests by the nav. on the Matanuska coal proved it bet ter coal for their use than Pocahonta coal which heretofore had always bee considered the best possible coal fo their purpose.
 The Secretary reported that infor nation available on the necessity o hospital at Seward shows that t date nearly 4000 seamen have called a > this port, that conservative estimat of number of mariners calling at Sew ard in a year will run around eigh n thousand persons, this exclusive Q :, fishermen, which, according to M t Moultray will not be less than thre 0 thousand men.

ROBBER SECURES $l35
 FROM HOME OF
 MRS. NELS LARSON

Last evening about nine- thirty, rob- bers entered the apartments of Mrs. Nels Larson, above the Commerce Cafe and took $135 in cash, scattering her iewelry and personal effects about the place.
 Mrs. Nels Larson, proprietress of the Commerce Cafe, was working downstairs at the time of the robbery and stated she heard a slight noise above, but thinking it came from the building next door, paid no attention to it. Shortly aften ten o'clock Mrs. Larson closed the restaurant for the night, and upon going up to her res idence, noticed the back door stand ing open, which she always kept lock- ed. This frightened her and she hur- ried to get help, meeting MT. and Mrs Charles Lechner on the street, induc- ing them to go upstairs with her.
 On entering her rooms they saw Mrs. Larson's jewelry scattered or top of shelf and a watch lying or the floor by the door, which the thiet had apparently dropped in making hls exit. However, none of the jeWelr! was taken which amounted to consid erable. Mrs. Larson stated today the money was taken from two separ ate places in the room, making it plalr ly evident that the thief was familiar with the building, and was in need O. immediate cash.
 Marshals Reed and Walker wer summoned, but thus far no clue ha been found.

thru lack of finances.
 Something rather unusual at the Chambers luncheon was the presence of Mir. Joseph s. Badger, commonly and affectionately known as Josie" This was an agreeable surprise and the opportunity was taken advantage of, to sympathize with Joe on his de- feat in the May Queen contest. Joe expressed his hope that the press would not be present as he did not wish publicity given the chagrin he felt at his loss.
 These meetings should be attended by every business and professional man in the community in order to sat isfactorily keep in contact with the good work this body of men is accom- plishing, not meeting should be miss ed. The valuable publicity, the esteem felt for the organization by outside agencies, is well-demonstrated in the letters read at each regular meeting. The organization thru it's activities, and the manner in which it is handling matters of National importance un- occasionally is becoming widely known, and will soon have contact with many influential outside persons anc organizations.
