At the request of the Seward Chap ter Of the American Red Cross, Dr. D. M. Harlow, surgeon for the Kennecott Copper Mine at Latouche, visited the natives at the Chenega Settlemet 20 miles from Latouche. Mir. Alfred Klerck, a membre of the executive committee of the Chapter and Miss Stella Fuller, Delano Nurse went with the Doctor and assisted him in mak- ing physical examinations and sani- tary surveys.
 The health conditions at Chenega are very bad. There is great deal of tuberculosis and several children are needing treatment, for eye di- seases. Dr. Harlor will have some of the children brought to the Latorche Hospital for X-ray pictures before completing his diagnosis and recom- mendations. Some of the patients may be sent to the Government Hospital for Natives at Juneau.
 There are thirty-one adults and 27 children at the settlement. They are anxious to learn and have asked that school be established there. There is Russian Greek church at Chenega but no resident priest.

 The return trip was not particularly unpleasant as westerly winds were encountered. The Elder reached Un- alaska, on April 11th and the Coast Guard Cutters Haida and Algonquin arrived exactly on schedule, April 15. It. Bissel transferred from the Elder ! to the Haida at that point The Haida had picked up the pontoons and all larger airplane parts which the Starr could not handle, and transported them to Unalaska In closing Lieut.. Bissel laid particular stress upon the value of the Coast Guard Service, saying, q desire tD especially en-- phasize the importance of the work done by the coast stari and the Blu reau of Fisheries boat Elder. It IS very questionable whether the flight could have passed through tine Aleu- tian Islands without the invaluable as sistance which they rendeed. They placed all their facilities at the dis posal of the flight; their personnel cared for the planes and the pilots, refilled the gas tanks; secured and disseminated weather informatio pa trolled the route flown by the planes and awaited them at their destination always willing to do everything pos sible. Few people realize the i'm portance of the part played by the Coast Guard. The value of their ser vices cannot be over-emphaslzad
