The principal loss of life came with
the destruction of the coast guard
patrol boat 23S, off Provincetown,
Mass, with a crew of eight men,
which was swallowed while two de-
stroyers fought doggedly through a
50mile wind in attempting to aid their
beleaguered comrades. The boat was
smashed to fragments when the sea
which tore her from her anchorage
yesterday and hurled her onto the
sands. Men who saw the wreckage
reported the only thing which came
ashore intact was a gun which was
mounted on the fOredeck.
Four persons died from freezing
weather in Pittsburg, Pa, district,
where the snow was piled from 16 to

found frozen to death in a tool box
where he took refuge from the storm.
Note-And still the weather in
Alaska is beautiful.

impressions accumulated through the years of

about the gold of Alaska, not to mention her other
great mineral resources and industries. note that
up here you say it with fish.
Your total mineral production last year was
about S18OO0,OO0. But you caught, canned and sold
approximately $50000,000 worth Of fish. You put
on the market about sx-sevenths of all the salmon
sold in the United States
You have good gold mines, copper mines, and
your real mineral resources have thus far been
touched for the greater part only where some lucky
prospector stumbled on the stuff To get to some of
these rich mineral deposits the prospector had to
walk over large tracts which form a part of YOUR
