Occupying the most prominent part Of The Denver Post, "The Best Newspaper in the T.. s. A." four column wide photograph of Jack McCord, of Seward, and Mrs. McCord appears accompanied by a lengthy article which is published intact as follows:
 Denver capitalists are being inter- ested by Jack McCo1d of Seward, Alaska, in a gigantic Alaskan deyel- opment project. the biggest pioneer ing enterprise ever undertaken.
 Under the Alaskan leasing bill ec- acted by the last Congress, an Amer ican syndicate organized by MT. McCord to conquer the last frontier of the American west and 10 develop enormous natural resources of AL askan territory on a sound, business like, constructive basis.
 Already Mir. McCord has leased 100000 acres of land in Alaska pro per and the nearby Aleutian Islands, for development by the syndicate. Enormous sheep, reindeer, cattle and fur raising projects are to be under taken. Mennonites and Mormons have been invited to establish colo nies in localities best suited to that purpose
 Big Start is Already Made i A big start nas been made toward the biggest and most substantial de- velopment Alaska has ever known.
 Thirty Wall street bankers are backing Mir. McCord who is endeav- bring to interest Boston wool men, the biggest sheep men in the United States. bankers and capitalists clear across the country, in the organiza- tion of a development corporation which will be one of the largest and soundest ever formed in this country.
 One immense section of the leas ed acreage is to be devoted to the reindeer industry. Others will be set apart for sheep and cattle graz ing and the raising of fox and musk rats
 The development syndicate is to finance the enterprise. Sheep, cat tie, muskrat and fox interests will furnish the animals necessary to Istock the various grazing and fur raising ranges. Transportation agen- cies are expected to be interested The enterprise will be thoroughly and systematically organized all the way from the production point to the final market.
 Opportunity Develop Last of West
 The opportunity for a profit is not the main consideration which has interested the men who are backing the enterprise" Mir. McCord said. Being successful men, they intend, of course, that it will be a success, The ahing that has appeal ed to them is the opportunity for constructive development of the last of the west. The blood of the pion- eer is in their veins They are go- ing to build up, not exploit, Alaska"
