Jones' Plane Falls
 Into Waters of Inlet

ANCHORAGE-Plunging from height of forty feet, Roy Trachel, for mer air service man, late last week, in the Al Jones seaplane, crashed head long into the waters of Cook Inlet, says the Anchorage Alaskan.
 The aviator narrowly escaped death owing to the low altitude at which he was flying the plane, as there was no chance to make a good landing. The plane lit about 100 feet off shore, di- rectly out from the end of Fourth ave- nue.
 In making a turn the plane gradu- ally fell off and then plunged headon into the water. Owing to the fact that the tide was just coming in, it was seen that the plane remained resting on her nose, and the aviator sitting in the cockpit, apparently was not in jured for he soon clambered out and stood upon the wings waiting for the rescue parties, rowing out to the dis abled craft.
 The pontoons which were attached to the plane broke free when the crash came and were slowly drifting out to sea when they were rescued by anoth- CT boat. Al Jones, owner of the plane is under the impression that it is not seriously damaged, and he will pull it out as soon as the tide recedes.
 Roy Trachel, during the World War, flew planes, according to Jones and is an experienced aviator. This type of machine he was rather unfamiliar with due to the fact that it had depth con- trols and he had been used to stick controls.

Koyukuk IS Quiet
 Says Interior Man

Peter Dow, an old timer of the Koy- ukuk, arrived in Fairbanks last Satur- day after a slow trip from the old camp situated above the Arctic Circle. MT. Dow left the Koyukuk country on the 18th of June and is on his way to the States for a visit
 He reports that conditions are very quiet north of the Circle although a few strikes of minor importance oc- cured during the winter. Water is scarce and the iacK of snow for the past two winters has hampered mining operations to quite an extent. Last winter no wood could be hauled until February because Of poor sleddirg.
 Mr. Dow says that Mrs. Allen, who was Miss Wanda Cofey, has turned miner in earnest. Mrs. Allen now owns several claims near W;seman and is actively engaged in t1e working of them.

Hundreds Attend
 Masonic Excursion

Three hundred and eighteen per- sons boarded the special train for Roosevelt yesterday morning, spend ing the day with the local lodge of Masons at Mile 23. Three coaches, and a baggage car, were provided by Manager Lee Landis, and they were filled to capacity. Arriving at Mile 23 the excursionists found lemonade, ice cream, coffee, doughnuts, and oth- CT eats provided in plenty for the large crowd by the Masons, and long tables provided ample room for all. Many tourists were among the throng, and they enjoyed the beautiful, sun ny weather to the uttermost. Dane ing, fishing and other amusements were indulged in until 4:30 when the large crowd returned home satiated with the days enjoyments.
 MT. and Mrs. Lawing working hard to add to the pleasure of the occasion their large trophy room, containing some of the finest specimens in Alas ka, being thrown open to the public. The large stuffed lion was delight to the visitors as was the buffalo, and other curios. To mention the mem bers of the Masonic lodge who looked after the wants of the crowd would requlre column, as all members were on the job, and wherever a red fez was to be seen, information was to obtained.
 Everything was donated free of cha: ge by the Masons including or anges, candies, soda pop, noise max CTS and tubs of lemonade. Many of the youngsters returned home swelled up like poisoned pups, but unanimous in the opinion that they had had a good time.
 No charge was made for transpor- tation to and from the lake.
 The train was pulled by John Ros- ness, with J. s. Bailey fireman, and Frank O'Shea conductor.
 The affair was one long to be re- membered and if the Maso1ls stage another trip like yesterdays it will take several trains to hold the crowd.
 As a footracer w. o. Perry is not a success.
 Harry Hoben had his fortune told and it was So good the girls had to tell the crowd.
 James Girdwood was on hand with a bunch of friends.
 Hank Frost, Coll MacDougall and J. F. Hannon looked too fetching in those little red fezzes.
 One youngster drank seven glasses of lemonade, ate dozen doughnuts and then bawled because the ice cream was all gone.
 Cal Brosius wore fez and was the object of much attention on the part of the young lady tourists.
 John Rossness is the champion cake eater.
 Did you see Milton dancing with that handsome stenographer. Some steps, boy.
 One tourist was heard to remark that the Masons in Alaska laid it over any organization he had yet seen. He had a pitcher of coffee and bushel of Nellie Lawing's doughnuts in him or he could have said more.
 Louis Bell done a land office bus mess with his launch Kenai. Louis was too busy to talk, which is some busy.
 After all was over the crowd lined up and had their pictures taken. Os- car insisted on being in the front row.

PROPOSED JAPANESE
INFLUX STIRS BRAZIL
Physicians Urge Restriction to 5
Per Cent of Total Oriental
Population.
NEWSPAPERS URGE STAND
immigration at Highest Was 5000
in One Year.

By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily
News. Copyright, 1924.
BUENOS AIRES, June 24.-Cable
reports of plans for intensive Japa-
nese emigration to Brazil are arous-
ing the press and other organizations
to the necessity Of making an i'm
mediate study of the question of
whether it is advisable to permit the
heavy influx of orientals.
The action of the United States in
permanently barring out the Japanese
finds considerable sympathy in Brazil,
where the inclination is often dis
cerhible to follow the lead of her
sister republic to the north in in
ternational matters.
Papers Ask Decision.
Certain Brazilian papers are sug-
geSting that the government decide
Immediately its position toward excess
s1ve oriental immigration, while the
National Academy and Medicine has
passed resolution urging the gov
ernment to restrict immigration to
. per cent of the Japanese popula-
ton in Brazil "in view of the abso-
Lutte inassimilability and also on
eugehc and hygienic grounds"
While Japanese confidential agents
for some time past have reported
Brazil suitable for colonization, Japa-
nese immig gra tion is hardly as large
as is generelly imagined. Brazilian
figures show that Japanese inlmigra-
tion attained the maximum in 1916,
when 5000 came. Figures for the
last ten years show wide variance.
In 1912, 1000; in 1914, $500; in 1915.
80; in 1916, 5000; in 1917, 1883; in
1918, 5,903: in 1919, 2.679; in 1920,
900; in 1922, 923; in 1928, S96. (No fig
ureS for 192D.
Plantation Life Hard.
Different reasons are assigned for
the falling off of Japanese immigra-
tion-infrequent sailings of Japanese
vessels and better opportunities in
other countries Life on Brazilian
coffee plantations is hard and lone
some many immigrants returning to
Japan before completion of their
contracts.
In the past Japanese immigrants
have settled principally in the states
of Sac Paolo, and Minas GeraeS and
have been employed on coffee planta-
tions 1t has been found Impossible
to scatter them, as they would not
intermarry with the natives. II
was found best to settle colonies
on digerent estates, where the lmmi-
grants became more reconclled, al
though every Japanese ship home
ward carried several Japanese faml-
lies dissatisfied with conditions.
Peru and Argentina receive transi-
tory Japanese workers, while Brazil
generally receives Japanese families
intent on staying. 1t remains to be
seen whether Japanese emigration
companies will renew their energy
toward Brazilian emigration now
that the United States bars them.

COMBINED BUSINESS
WITH PLEASURE ON TRIP.
Prof. and Mrs. E. D. Riley Visit Sea.
brook Farms at DeerfieId.

On Monday, Sept. Is, Prof. and Mrs.
E. D. Riley made a business trip to
Bridgeton, visited his two sisters re-
siding there, then inspected the Sea-
brooks farms at Deerfield, where Mr..
Riley was born and spent his child
hood days The old farm is a huge
flower bed. 40 acres of the old farm
is one field of Gladioli
The Seabrooks farm consists of 3400
acres under cultivation, with fruit,
vegetables and nursery stock. 1t is
the largest farm of its kind in the
United States, if not in the world.
The beautiful sight can not be de-
scribed. They rode 10 miles in their
automobile through the farm. An ar
my of men and women were in the
fields. Most of the peach crop has
been harvested, but the trees, both
apple and peach, are worth days
labor to see. With lima beans at $1.90
basket in Absecon, then to see a
patch of 600 acres being picked and
shipped by the car load lots, makes a
u peck seem a very small package.
ITO acres in strawberries, 1000 acres
in peach and apple trees, with $50
acres each of rutabagas, peas and
squash, $50 acres spinach, $50 acres
beets, makes the gardens of Absecon
seem very small.
The Roster Nurseries and the Jack
son & Perkins Rose Farms were points
of interest and well worth visit.
These adjoin the Seabrooks Farms.
