Red Cross Report

The report ofthe Red Cross or eanization for the year ending June 30 is given as follows:
 Red Cross Chapters generally have been increasingly vigorous in perfecting strong, alert disaster re- lief committees,'' and consequently a very large portion of the United States is covered with this disaster preparedness plan. With unfailing accuracy and speed these chapter committees have moved into action when disaster has struck their com n,unities. Chapters are studying their local disaster hazards more carefully"
 During the past year the Red Cross participated in ninety dis asters, sixty-two of which were within the United States. The work Of rehabilitating areas visited by disaster has been under the Red Cross. The Alaska Towns of Rake and Douglas might be pointed to as examples of the kind of work that the organization is doing.
 Iii the United States the organi- zation spent $3,S71,S27 during the yeat, $229,00O of which was furnish ed by Rer Cross Chapters. $53,07g. was spent for foreign work.
 The total amount spent for disas- ter. including midwestern tornado which left 800 homeless amounted to $3,297,537.
 The present roll call in Peters burg should be given the hearty SUD- port of every citizen whereby the woik k of the organization may be broadened in every way possible.

MINE FAILURE EXPLAINED

]. B. Chilberg, former president of the defunct Scandinavian-Ameri- !, can bank explained to his friends in Seattle recently the reason for the failure of his palladium mine at Salt Chuck near Ketchikan. He declared that a reduction in the price of palladium to $3O an ounce forced him to close the mine.
 When the mine closed recently the Ketchikan Commercial Club had to take steps to house and feed the men from this mine, some of whom had as much as $1,4O0 due them.
 Tn the first place the mine was operating on shoe string capital and holding the miners of until the day when wages could be paid. The day never came. Tn the second place the mineral was not there in paying quantities. Tn the third place wages due miners two years ago indicated that the mine was a losing proposition.

SOME DRIFTING

Among bottles drifting in ocean currents which were recently pick ed up and reported to the Hydro graphic Office of the Navy Depart ment is one that apparently drifted 1,160 miles in two months. while another took more than three years for a drift of 73O miles
 That's a lot farther than some bottles have drifted in Alaska.
 MIGHT'VE BEEN PETERSBURG
 A dispatch from Duluth says: George E. Lewis, who says he is an Alaskan author, declared here that he owns a $7,0O0 automobile which he drives along a private roadway 200 yards long to his outlying home.
 From the size of the appropria- rion made for the repair and up- keep of the Petersburg roads this year Lewis might have had his home in Petersburg. One hundred and fifty dollars cannot repair much more than 200 yards of road.

NOT so PROFITABLE
From time to time reports come

From time to time reports come out of the north to the effect that the natives are not profiting so much by reindeer propagation as Is Indicated in many reports of the Bi- ological Survey. These reports were recently denied by J. H. Wagner, Chief of the Alaska Division. (Bu- reau of Education. Be that as 1t ir may, the fact stands out promi- nently that the logical place for na- tive herds is along the Alaska Rail- road. The increased price alone warrants the consideration of sug- gestions offered by men who claim to be familiar with the reindeer industry. Tn addition, the herds would provide an appreciable mea- sure of business for the Alaska Rail- road. During the past year approx irlately a half million pounds of reindeer meat was shippedfrom Alas ka, practically all of which came from the Seward peninsula and the 1uajor portion from one big com pany. As the reindeer industry was established for the benefit of the na- tive, 1t would appear logical that the Bureau should take advantage of the big range in Broad Pass and the railroad to give the native herds better opportunity for revenue. - Anchorage Times.
