GERMANY ANXIOUS OVER LEAGUE
INVITATION DELAY
Fears Call to Next Session May Come
After Decision OF. Council Composition

Berlin, Aug. 5th.- Germany's failure
to receive an invitation to attend the
coming session of the League of Nations
is causing much comment, Informal,
though not unofficial, inquiries have
been made as to when an invitation may
be expected, but no satisfactory reply
has been received from Geneva.
1t is feared that the invitation may,
perhaps, come after the League Assem-
bIy meets and after the future compost
ton of the League Council especially
the status of Brazil, Poland and Spain
is decided. Should this happen, Ger
many would face a new situation. Even
before the last session in March she
gave the League powers clearly to IN
derstand that any fundamental changes
in the membership Of the Council which
were effected without her participation
might compel her to reconsider her re-
quest for admission.
Germany holds that all changes In the
membership of the League Council, es-
pecially the admission of new members,
ought to be decided by the full Assem-
bIy, and after she herself has been adj
mitted.- Ibid.

Alex. Liska a noted northern guide and mountain climber,
 plans to leave Anchorage in March with a small party to climb Mt. Mckinley. One of the objects of Liska's attempt is to solve the mystery of the peculiar mist or cloud effect which recently gave rise to reports that the mountain was erupting. He plans to ascend to the old crater 12,000 feet up to determine the cause of the phenomena. Ligka climbed 12,- GG0 feet via the northeast side of the mountain in 1918 but was blocked by precipices of snow and ice, so he will go to Kochitna and Muddy River and try the route taken by Hudson and Stuck. Liska will try to gain the summit alone if his party turns back.

The Hirst- -Chichagoff Gold

The Hirst- -Chichagoff Gold Mining Company, operating on Chichagoff Island, has made a big strike in the No. 3 tunnel, according to reliable advices. At a distance of 2,000 feet q 4-foot ore shoot was encount- cred which carries values av- eraging $75 per ton. Product ion from the mine last year amounted to $200,000. Thru out the season the company has been shipping from ten to fifteen tons of concentrates to the Tacoma smelter each month. The latest strike is i'm portant, not only because -of the value of the ore in the shoot, but also because it shows that the vein goes to considerable depth. Control of the Hirst-C -Chichagoff Gold Mining Company lies in the hands of several wealthy mem- bers of the Chinese colony in Seattle.

ALASKA NOTES

A. H. Sonsthagen, a herring fleet operator, of Douglas, Alaska, expressed the view that the fish in Alaskan wat CTS cannot find their way home because the Japanese current has strayed from its course, taking its warmth to new waters and forcing the fish to find new havens. Sons thagen says the habits of the fish changed with the climate, and their habits have also changed since the Japanese earthquake. He claims further that the direction of the Japa- nese current has changed since the earthquake.
