today he was puzzling over the tickets,
which were written in Chinese.
But the homicide squad at headquar-
tiers has the biggest puzzle. What they
are puzzling about is the whereabouts
of the laundryman.
That is quite puzzle in itself. For
one thing, the laundryman in question
is known as James Lee, Lee Soon, Lee
Suey and Lee Foo. For another, the
laundryman continues to neglect to
furnish his address.
One reason for that, police say, is
the fact that James Lee or Lee Soon or
Lee Suey or Lee Foo is wanted as a
suspect in the murder June IL of
Lee King, Chinese narcotic informer.
The laundry at 1905 closed its doors
shortly after this incident.

ARMY RECOMMENDS DRY PASS PROJECT
 SAYS MAJ. ELLIOTT

The Chief of Engineers for the U. S. Army has recommended to Congress improvement of Dry Pass for navigation, by the small inter island vessels, at an estimated cost of $7o,00O, it was learned at the office of the U. S. Engineer De- partment today.
 The recommendation was sent to Congress and has been referred tc the Committee on rivers and har- bors, Major Malcolm Elliott, Dis trict Engineer, said.
 Important Channel
 Dry Pass is on the west coast of Prince of Wales Island and is g small natural channel between that island and Koskiusko Island. Il is a very necessary waterway fol small boats as it affords shelter from storms and heavy seas in the north Pacific Ocean. This region is entirely dependent on water transportation for local traffic and
The Daily Alaska empire., 1929-03-28

for log rafts which move to Ket- ahlkan, Wrangell and Juneau. This $ form of transportation which particularly nenaced by rough E2athes.p he said.
 The channel is also used for ? Q ssc T CTS, and miscellaneous freight and is a sheltered water way particularly needed in case of sickness and other emergencies, for none Of the small communities n this section support doctors.
 The project is for channels @ feat wide and feet deep at mean ew water, and the work will con- list principally of blasting and re- moving rock which at present seri- ously obstructs the channel. The proposed work provides only for small boats as ocean vessels have no occasion to use the passage.
 Examination Made
 A preliminary examination of the project was made by Major Douglas Gillette, acting District Engineer n 927, upon which a survey was authorized and performed The report on the survey was made by Maj. Elliott, District Engineer, ir i August, 1928.

Has Time TO Develop.
The most important corrective force,
however, that has been brought in by
the machine age Is the opportunity
which it has given to labor to enjoy q
few leisure hours every day, hours free
from the crushing pressure Of poverty
and overwork. In this country today we
have the highest wages and the Short
est hours of labor ever developed any
where, and we are going In the dtrec-
ton of still higher wages and still
shorter hours. The poor man Is no
he has time for self-improvement and
recreation.
Not only has the machine given more
leisure to labor, but it has In q sense
given more opportunity for individual
expression Specialization and differen-
tiation may have made individual jobs
monotonous, but they have also created
satisfactory opportunities for self-sup-
port and independence for thousands OF
people who before the machine age
would have been forced to be common
laborers because they could not develop
the all-around skill of the artisans.
In the old days If a man could not
learn all there was to know about a
trade he was relegated to very in
ferior position, but today the industrial
world is so divided and subdivided in
its needs that people of all kinds, even
those with abilities In only one or two
directions, can find a place therein.

unable to ind q particular niche In
which they can function effectively.
Thus we see that the machine has
greatly increased the number Of groups
IN which an individual workman may
md himself, which Is q tendency away

ton.
1t has been frequently argued that
our conquest Of nature has proceeded
much more rapidly than Our conquest
Of ourselves. There would seem to be
some justification for this accusation
II 1t were not for the fact that never
In the history of the world has there
been such a widespread interest taken
by man In himself as has grown up
during the present century.
The Greek philosopher Said "Know
myself" but probably very few of the
men In the street paid any attention
to this precept However, hundreds OF
thousands Of people In the United
States are now reading the books and
the stories, the periodicals and the
newspaper articles which help man to
