THANE IS HERE
AND Confident
OF PAPER MILL
Director Alaska Castineau
Predicts Juneau Be Gen.
ter Big Industry.

Bart l.. Thane, managing director
of the Alaska Gastineau Gold Min
ing Company, who has been de-
voting much of his attention for
sometime toward the utilization of
the hydro-electric development of
that company for the purpose of
manufacturing pulp and paper and
chemical fertilizer, arrived in Jul
neau today on the Yukon, accom-
panied by his mother, Mrs S.
Thane. of Niles, California, and
will spend sometime in Juneau in
connection with the proposed pulp
and paper development. Mr.. Thane
will be followed north by Retel Nc
Balm of Portland, Oregon, and How
ard S, Taylor, of Cleveland, Ohio,
both famous paper engineers. Mr..
McBain certainly and Mr., Taylor
probably will sail from Seattle on
the Queen tomorrow. If Mr. Taylor
cannot make that boat he will sail
soon thereafter. Others may accom-
pany them on the trip.
Mr.. Thane says several Pacific
Coast newspapers owners have de-
termined to enter the pulp and
paper manufacturing business, and
they are favorably considering AL
aska, though Puget Sound and Ore
gon interests are endeavorlng to
direct their activities in their di-
rection.
Mr.. Thane is confident that Ju-
neau will soon be the center of
large pulp and paper manufactur-
ing industry in Alaska. 1t is too
early, however, he says, to announce
the details of the present status
of the negotiations.
Praise for Mr.. Heintzleman
Mr.. Thane praised the work that
Mr.. Heintzleman has been and is
doing for the promotion of pulp
and paper industry in Alaska. Mr..
Heintzlemans assistance has been
invaluable, he said. and The people
of Alaska owe him a debt of graft
tude that it will be difficult, in
deed, to repay.
Mr.. Thane and Mrs. Thane are
at the Gastineau Hotel. Mrs Thane
is accompanied by Miss Crathwaite,
her nurse. 1t is her first visit to
Juneau in more than ten years.
She was delighted with the trip,
and says she continues to be greatly
interested in Alaska, the scene of
so much of her sons activities.

BUTTER
MARKET

Chicago. Aug. 2S-(AP)-Condi-
tons on the butter market Monday
were unsettled and indications point
ed to lower prices. Offerings were
liberal and demand At Chicago and
New York was SO light that prices de-
c;ined 4 cent. However. later on.
supplies were found TO be short of
actual needs, and the
market became firm and receivers
had nc difficulty in disposing of ar
rivals each day.
Confidence was restored in prac-
tically all quarters and q large per-
ccntage of operators were optimistic
as to the markets in the immediate
future. The factors of supply and
demand justified the present firm
ness and advance in price but the ad-
vance, say some. has been too rapid.
Tt the close Of the week some Of the
dealers were of the opinion that
prices may have reached . point
which will cause a slowing up in de-
mand for current arrivals and the
withdrawal of larger quantities from
storage. There is q possibility Of q
slight reaction to q lower price level
but no sharp reductions are antici-
patcd.

FINANCIAL
REVIEW

New York, Aug. 2S-Hardening Of
money rates, due to the heavy de-
mand for funds to finance crop
movements and expanding CONNER
cial needs, were the outstanding de-
Vehement of this weeks financial
markets. The stock market headed
downward in the early part Of the
week az selling pressure was renewed
against the standard ihdustrials, but
it made irregular recovery later.
The fortnight before Labor Day is
additionally period Of quiet and in
decision in the securities markets and
this year is no exception. Wall street
has expressed considerable concern
over the money situation because it
is felt that a further stiffcning of
rates might check speculative opera
tions for the rise. Therefore rumors
that the Boston and Philadelphia re-
serve banks would shortly increase
their rediscount rates were the cause
of considerable liquidation during the
week.
