STORY OF HOW OHLSON MADE HIT
 WITH COOLIDGE AND GOT TO BE
 RAILROAD HEAD IS FINALLY OUT

SEATTLE, Aug 13.-Horatio AL ger might we'll find an inspiration for an entire book in the story of Otto r. Jhlson. veteran railroad man, particularly in facts concern ing Ohlson's appointment to the position of General Manager of The Alaska Railroad. When Ohl- son sailed from here last night aboard the Aleutian for Alaska to take up his duties in his new posi- tion, some of his friends overflow cd with the secret of the events leading up 10 tho appointment. de- claring the story was too good to keep.
 Until late in July, Ohlson was superintendent of the Superior Di- vision of the Northern Pacific Rail- road with head quarters in Du- luth. He was out supervising some work along the line not far from Brule, Wisconsin.
 Ohlson's work engaged the at tention of party of fishermen.
 Ohlson was a busy man and he did not have time for the fisher men save in the light of potential passengers for his line.
 But one of the fishermen took particular attention of the rail- road executive.
 That fisherman was President Coolidge.
 The story goes: That man looks good to me as likely timber for the Alaska Railroad" the Pres ident is quoted as saying.
 "Ill fish down." and then with his down-east drawl, said: Let's find out who he is."
 The Northern Pacific lost a Di- vision Superintendent right there and Uncle Sam got a new railroad executive.
 General Manager Ohlson will be in Juneau tomorrow on his way to his headquarters at Anchorage.
