Some Auto Trip

The News-Miner of Fairbanks carries a story alleged to have been reported by one of the big Detroit newspapers that surpasses any fish story we have ever heard. Wheth- CT Glen Healas, Alaskan, was kid ding the reporter or had the hoof and mouth disease we do not know but in part the story follows:
 From 30 degrees below zero to 12O degrees above: from snow and ice to erid sands; then thru mud and pouring rains to the ling ering winter temperatures of De- troit were the experiences of Healas.
 The entire trip of over 10000 miles, skirting the western boun- daries of Alaska, Canada, the Unit ed States, thence into Mexico and eastward through the southermost states, and again heading north was made without even changing 8 spark plug. During his stay in AL aska, Healas drove over 90,O00 miles. Once he was caught by the tide while driving along the beach. Last year he had the misfortune to drive off wharf. Because 1t was some time before the car could be raised the body was ruined, but Healas liked the performance of the car so we'll he built himself anoth- CT body, this time a torpedo shap- ed two seater."
 Heading south from Juneau Jan- nary 18th Healas with one con- panion went to Vancouver. The going was tough for the roads were rough and frequently the two had to get out to shovel snow drifts that no car could go through and over glaciers the like of which no other joy rider ever attempted.
 We would suggest that Hkealas take a course in the journalistic art and attach himself with some newspapers of this division we know that are more or less troubl- ed with terminological inexacti- tude. g

The intermittent boom of dynamite speaks loudly of rock work progressing in connection with the dredging of the Narrows. It will not be long before the chan nel will be deep enough and wide enough for the biggest of the Alaska transportation fleet to make regular trips through the Narrows. Just seeing the steamers pass thru the narrows will not mean much to local business. The thing Peters burg interests should attempt to do is to have the vessels make this their regular port of call with both freight and mail.

Eleven bodies were recovered and eight more remained in the wreckage. Twelve of these were identified. Divers declared that there were no more bodies in the submarine.
 President Coolidge declared 'Tn- formation has reached me that when the submarine S-51 was opened it disclosed that each sea- man who had been lost was at his post of duty doing what he could to save the ship. They could have been no greater heroes If they had died in action. This ia another exhibition of the great courage of the self-sacriflco which has always characterized the men in the naval service of the United States.

Our observation in our contact with many nationalities segregated as to races was that where mother tongue predominated old country customs and ideas prevailed as against the English language and customs of the Land. It is to be hoped that all the other canneries have i'm proved their contract force as well as the local cannery.

BUILDING NEW BLOCK

Preliminary digging of the foundation for the new Wheeler Block adjoining Swanson and Dahps Mercantile establishment was con- menced this week. Petersburg's genial druggist advised our report CT that he expected in a short while construction of a building 40x60 two storkies high. The need for more business blocks as we'll as residences is most acute here.
 Business cannot come in unless room is made for them to place their wares.
 During the past few months we personally know of eight families who have looked the Petersburg field over and decided to make this their home After canvassing the housing situation and finding that the only available place would be undesirable as to location and con- dition they want on to other towns.
 Petersburg will never grow so long as it's citizens do not have faith in it's future and help to de- velop 1t. The best of plumbs do not fall in the lap but are secured only after a strenuous climb to the top most branches. There Is work for the Chamber of Commerce to do or some committee to induce iocal capital to enter local ventures or to secure additional outside capital to give financial backbone to the business of the town. That the Wheeler Block is evidence of the faith of MT. Wheeler in his own town is not to be denied. Let us have more of it.
