MARCH EXPORTS
 SHOW GAIN

An increase of $186,636 in the value of Alaska exports in March, as compared to March 1927, is shown by the monthly statement of Customs Collector J. c. Mcbride.
 The gain is attributed main- ly to increased fur and copper shipments, with a small in- crease in the value of fish pro- ducts. Copper valued at 1,01O,- $50, an increase of $12970O over March, 1927, was the most important item. Fur shipments totaled $221,137 in value, of which red fox, val ued at $87,285 formed the leading item.

Teacher Rides 20
Miles Daily, 2 Pupils

BENzIEN.-Miss Nella Gurnett
Benzien, is probably the only
teacher in this part of the state
who rides 20 miles every day to
teach a school having but two
pupils. The Haney school, as it is
known, is one of the oldest estab-
lished schools in this part of the
county. 1t is located in what was
formerly a we'll settled district in
the brakes between Benzien and
the Missouri river, 10 miles from
Benzien, where Miss Gurnett lives
with her parents.
During good weather she drives
the 20 miles daily in her car, but
Is inches of snow drifted over
rough roads have prevented the
use of a car for the last few days,
when she has made the trip on
horseback, staying over night
with friends at a ranch near the
school only when she has been
caught in a brizzard.
If Miss Gurnett continues to
ride or drive back and forth thru
out the entire term of nine months,
she will have travelled $500 miles
to and from school by the time the
term closes in the spring.

answer questions before the SEN
ate Teapot dome committee as to
whether he has knowledge of the
Liberty bond transactions of the
Continental Trading company of
Canada.
Acting upon a certification of
this refusal from the senate, Dis
trict Attorney Gordon plans to
present the case to the grand jury
in the District of Columbia SUI
preme court this week with a
view to a presentament for con-
tempt of the senate.
This proceeding will be entirely
apart from that set for Tuesday
before Justice Jennings Bailey in
which the chairman of the board
of the Standard Oil company of
Indiana seeks permanent release
from the senate order of arrest
which was served on him late Fri
day but vacated temporarily Sat
urday by writ of habeas corpus.
The senate has authorized its
oil committee to employ counsel
to oppose the release of Stewart
from senate arrest. Hearing on
the writ is not expected to con-
ume more than two or three
days, but should Justice Bailey
vacate his temporary restraining
order Stewrat would have the
right of appeal to the District OF
Columbia court of appeals and
finally to the supreme court OF the
United States.
Walsh on His Trail
Should Justice Bailey turn Stew
art back to the senate, Senator
Walsh of Montana, prosecutor for
the oil committee, has indicated
that he would not favor giving
him ar opportunity to purge him
self of contempt, but rather would
insist upon his prosecution under
the contempt statute which calls
for a minimum punishment OF one

Reference of Stewards case to
the District of Columbia court for
action was voted unanimously by
the senate, but not without caus-
tic attack On that court because of
delays in the various oil cases, in
Guiding that of Harry F. Sinclair,
who was convicted of contempt of
the senate nearly a year ago but
who still is at liberty on bond
pending appeals.
Senator Walsh said these delays
We're ''regrettable," but his demo
cratic colleague, Senator Caraway
of Arkansas declared they had be-
come "a national scandal" He
made particular reference to the
pending criminal contempt pro-
ceedings against Sinclair and
others before Justice Frederick L..
