|. S. FILMS ABROAD

Foreign film makers continue compete with American tilme in their own lands. and this no. be- cause Of inherent superiority of the American product, but because the enormous consumption Of films in the United States provides ready made market and then enables our film moguls to sell their surplus, so- called, in foreign marts at vastly re- duced rates.
 Almost every foreign country of importance has tried to do battle with the American film invasion, but the results 50 far have not caus- cd excessive worry in Hollyw ood. England has had q scheme to force more showings of English films in English theat,rs, and has been part ly successful. Germany has eXacted a quota arrangement with American producers whereby q certain per centaEe Of German films are eX- changed with American films. and i though this has worked. the chief victory Of American film makers has been in inducing German stars and technicians 10 cnigrate to the United states in search c. higher Salaries. The French film industry has been thoroughly defeated by the Americans, and in a last effort 10 assist tho French industry the Paris government is considering qnota ' system. The Trench industry is greatly handicapped through in. lack of sufficient thoat which arc knoHn as consuming points in 'he tradn---'hrouehout Francs. The italian film industry, despite every Kind of governmental aid including subsidies, has been all but r'reckcd in competition with the American
 product. A tow years ago Sred"r tried assistance schemes, and thee

HEAD OF ALASKA RAILROAD JOURNEYS TO WASHINGTON
 REPORT CONDITIONS

After a thorough and careful sur vey of all the lines, equipment and activities of the system which has kept him constantly busy since he assumed charge about three mon ths ago, General Manager Otto F. Ohlson is ready for his departure for Washington next Saturday on the s. s. Yukon when he will lay his report before the Secretary of the Interior. He arrived at Seward last night in his private car accompan- jed by Travelling Engineer Byron Fines for a last inspection of the extensive alteration work that has been going forward in the Seward yards.
 Naturally, I cannot very well discuss for publication the matters that I will lay before the Depart ment, until after I have conferred with my chief" said MT. Ohlson, "but I can say there are some i'm portant matters to be considered.
 T can say that I am extremely well impressed with the importance of the railroad as means of devel- oping Alaska and want to see the road kept up to it's highest point of deficiency like it here very much and am glad that I accepted this position It is a big work and the joy of achievement is heightened by the realization of the good that may be accomplished
 ! MT. OhlSOn will remain over until i tomorrow and was a guest at the | Seward Chamber of Commerce luncheon today. The duration of his stay on the Outside will be two Tor three months.

GOVERNMENT IN BUSINESS WOULD DESTROY BASIS
 OF PROGRESS

NEW YORK, Oct, g, (P)-Re- ceived in the town of his oppo- nent by the greatest ovation of his campaign before a crowd of 18,000, jammed into Madison Square Garden, Herbert Hoover gave his final speech in his East ern campaign. After the cheers had died away the Republican Nominee laid before the neighbors of Al Smith the contention that the Democratic party had brought into the campaign proposals on farm relief, prohibition and elec- trical power, which abandoned the tenets of the Democrats in favor "Of State socialism,"
 STRIKING THE
 opposition more vigorously than ever before during the campaign Hoover said it was proposed that the country change from prohibi- ton to State purchase and sale of liquor and that the government should buy, sell and fix prices on agricultural products and enter the hydroelectric business saying, amidst a burst of applause, Tt would stifle initiative and business; it would undermine development and leadership and cramp the spiritual energies of our people; eXtinquish equality and dry up the spirit of liberty and progress.
 YOU ARE RIGHT
 one spectator shouted above the din of applause which greeted Hoover's declaration that he knew the adoption of methods of the government in business would Strike at the very roots of Amer ican life and would destroy the very basis of American progress"
 After his speech the Nominee went directly to his hotel to rest an hour before entraining for Washington

With thousand miles ahead, the longest ment of reindeer in the history of the industry of the North is underway from Akiak the middle Kus- kokwim river to Herendeen Bay far out the Alaska peninsula spelling great things for the future of rein deer propagation to the Westward and adding another activity which may mean much to the Port of Seward. Two thousand head are moving across the tundra in charge of Paul Kjegstal and two companions. They started about the middle of September and expect to reach their journeys end next April.

Kjegstal, a Norwegian, who has been in Alaska for 40 years has se- cured a grazing permit from Her endeen Bay to Cold Bay, a distance of about 100 miles, and his advent into the peninsula country will mean the establishment of a rein deer meat cold storage plant at Un- ga Island and will be followed by the installation of meat canning machinery in fish canning plants already existing there which will give the plants an opportunity to work during the winter months.
 The news came in a letter to Nick Johnson, now in Seward, who owns a cod fishing station at Snug Cove on Unga Island and who was a partner with Kjegstal in the early Klondike days. He too, has been in Alaska for nearly 40 years. The letter was written from Akiak on September 3rd and it was then stated that the herd would be un- derway within few days.
 Kjegstal made history in the summer of 1927 when he started from the upper KuSkokWlm with five reindeer heading for Heren- deen over the route he is now trav- cling. His purpose was to find a new location because the reindeer of the Kuskowirn were increasing so rapidly without a means of get ting them to market that he reallz- ed something must be done. There are 5000 head now and no ad quate means of getting the meat to the consumer
 He had his deer hitched to light Yukon sled which carried his camp equipment and which was dragged over the dry moss. He is over 60 years of age and the story of that journey is one of the sagas of the North He had undertaken the strange journey to find out the feed possibilities of the country
 Going down the Northern side of the peninsula to the west of Bristol Bay he ran into burned area and nearly lost his life. He had to kill some of his deer for food but finally managed to stagger thru with two deer that were barely able to navi- gate themselves. He and the deer were picked up by fishing boat and taken on to his destination.
 This will be the Southernmost and almost the farthest west rein deer range in Alaska. The food has been found plentiful and the location has the merit of being close to transportation. It indicates a new industry and new source of revenue for the Westward country.
