NIGHT FLYING FOR
PASSENGERS

A recent test flight has caused a
plan for international night flying to
be instituted between Berlin and 9TH
er countries just as soon as restric-
tions of the Versailles treaty on the
size of German built planes is remov-
ed. 1t is thought that night flying with
convenient berth arrangements for
passengers will become a popular me-
thod of travel and will also become
cheaper as the size of the plane is in
creased. Before passenger service be-
gins there will be regular "r"nsporta-
ton of mail and PACKAGE n more
light signals will be installed over
towns and at light houses throughout
the course of the air trip. Several
lines of service will be started at the
same time from Berlin and will CO.
ordinate in their connections in that
city so that service between Stock
holm and Budapest or Vienna will be
continuous and speedy on German
planes.

PASSENGER FLIGHTS
SAFE

A record of English commercial av-
iation for the past five years shows
that twenty passengers were carried
in 1919, and rapid increase since then
total $4,000 with 100000 miles flown.
Only six deaths out of this number is
recorded. The largest passenger ser
vice is between London and Paris
where six trips are made daily. There
are also daily trips to Berlin, Mos
COW and Cologne. Zurich, Rome and
Madrid are to be added to the daily
service. A drop of 10 to cents per
mile in passenger rate has been af-
fected. Freight capacity is always en-
gagged ahead.

GRAND JURY SAYS 1T

In the Grand Jury presentments of
Fulton County it is interesting to
note the position taken on school hous
ing They said "The buildings of the
schools inspected by the committee
are in good repair, but many are of a
temporary character and should be re-
placed with a permanent building of
modern type. Two story wooden
buildings are a menace to the child
rem and should be eliminated at once
and where wooden buildings are nee
essary, they should be only one story
high and should only be erected as a
temporary need" The First Ward peo-
pie hold the same opinion, and are
anxiously awaiting that administra-
ton of city affairs that will undertake
to do justice to the most popular
school in the city and give them their
due--a safe and substantial building
with modern equipment equal to that
! of the other three wards.

Not that Sweden had more forests
than the United States in the begin
ming but because they practiced con-
servation, puts them in the world
market as sellers and our country
for contrary reasons as buyers for
lumber. The long hauls from our only
source of supply either in the West
or the South with excessive freight
charges, makes purchase of lumber
overseas of comparative advantage to
the Eastern states and considerable
number of shipments have been already
made with prospect of increasing bus
mess with Sweden.

BACTERIA
A German scientist named Blumen-
thai has announced to a Cancer Con-
gress in Berlin that three forms OF
cancer producing bacteria are now dis
covered and verified by experiments
on animals. Professor Wasserman OF
bloodtest fame also corroborated this
conclusion and substantiated the two
new points of discovery; first that a
group of parasitic bacteria and not a
single germ is necessary to the prop
agation of cancer, also an outside If
ritant of friction or inflammation must
be factor in the growth of cancer.
Serum tests are declared of no use in
diagnosing cancer and new system
more similar to the Wasserman test
must be contrived. The announcement
of Blumenthal and Wasserman, both
of eminent renown as research ex-
perts was received with full credence
and enthusiasm by the assembly OF
cancer specialists.

SEIZES OPPORTUNITY
Anchorage Times)

The Seward Chamber of Commerce is an aggressive organization, compos- ed of energetic business men and man. aged by capable officials. Seward is going after the business to the westward. The civic organization plans a business mems excursion trip to the Bristol Bay section and practically ev- cry business house in Seward will be represented.
 While the idea did not originate with the Seward organization, the fact remains that the members are taking advantage of the opportunity to turn the westward tide of trade to their port, and the excursion plan will un- doubtedly bear fruit.
 Part of this business rghtfully be- longs to Seward on account of geo graphical location; Seward is not pros elyting in this venture, but naturally the merchants will boost for their own home town.
 Anchorage has ever been remiss in this particular, and while a more or less half-hearted effort has been made to introduce Anchorage merchandise to the westward and Cook Inlet ports, the idea has not approached any we'll defined program.
 By concerted action on the part of Anchorage businessmen who would support the movement it is possible to a service which would ade- qnately care for the business which wcnnl naturally arise from such ven ture.

 Every part of the mine has now been explored and there are ten bodies missing. Fresh crews have been call ed to take up the work and thorough search of the entire mine has been started in an effort to locate the ten missing bodies.
 Whether the ten bodies will be dis covered in hooks and corners or wheth- CT they have been burned by the vari- ous fires which have occurred in the mine during the week cannot be ascer- tained until the crews make further search.

Many oth- erwise fine homes about the city are m&rred by unsightly piles of tin cans, rubbish and other unsightly garbage, which initiates against the city as a whole Another drawback to the pos sible improvement of premises in the city is the fact that no sooner does renter beautify his premises than his rent, in some instances, is raised, and he is forced to move out and sacrifice his improvements, or pay the price asked Fortunately, this has happered in but few cases, the average landlCrd making it as easy as possible on his tenants. Until Seward has more habi- table houses the waiting list will cause recurrent uneaSinesS among tenants.
