those of tractor. The bell has two mechanical arms which have every joint the human arm possesses, with the exception of the wrist joint, that are operated by the diver, who gazes out through the four port holes in the bell.
 While this summer they operated with only one bell at time, they had on hand another to use in case of emergency, and mayfi when they again start operations, use two at a time. In these they are able to re- main on the bottom of the sea for several hours without coming to the surface.
 During the summer I believe l spent total of 206 hours actually on the wrecked vessel. I did about two- thirds of the diving, and the remain sder was done by my brotoher, E. H. Wiley" he declared.
 Among the trophies recovered from the wreck by the divers were over a dozen bottles of Shasta water. an anchor, steering gear, part of, the railing, and blocks .ann tackle.
 "While there is little sea growth on the bottom of the sea itself, it is inn possible to describe the growth on the vessel itself. The growth is enorl nous and seems to consist of sea trees which have the appearance of elk horns but which don't grow on the bottom itself," Mir. Wiley said.
 Skeletons of approximately 13 peo- pie were loiated by the divers during their operations this summer, though there is no possible way of recogniz- ing or identifying them. A leather pocketbook, containing stamps and cards, on which the writing was still easily distingoishable, was brought to the surface by Mir. Wiley, among the other trophies.

5000 ALASKA REINDEER
 FOR NORTHERN CANADA

Success of the reindeer industry in Alaska has suggested their irltroduc- tion into Norttheern Canada and a herd of 3,n00 will soon be driven from American territory into the De- minion. Without doubt, the stock will thrive in the new home and multiply as well and as rapidly as in the old.
 The first animals in Alaska were brought fro mSiberia in 1892 by Dr. Sheldon Jackson of the Federal Edu- cational Bureau for the purpose of aiding the Eskimo population. The small herd of I'll was established, on Seward Peninsula. Subsequently other importations were made, in all about 1,280 head. To train natives Jn the care and use of the deer, Lapps were brought to the country. For several years, stock was possessed only by Eskimas and the latter were forbidden by law 70 sell it. Later. more deer were imported by white residents, and stock controlled by ina- tives became so numerous that they wcr.. r.rmitted to r..:ket sore ef it. Now herds owned bv Eskimos and white men contain as many as o1O,- 900 head.
 The meat of the reindeer supplies food and the hides provide clothing, in instances tented habitations for the natives. As developed b y the whites, the industry ships large quan- titles of meat in cold storage to the StSates. and every year, with further improvement in transportation facili- ties. production and export can be in- creased to meet the most extensive demand

WORK GOING AHEAD ON KUS-
 KOKWIM-YUKON PORTAGE
Fairbanks News-Miner.)

Improvement work on the Yukon Kuskokwim rsFtage is progressing at a very satisfactory rate and by the end of the year it is expected that the project will be 80 per cent com pleted, according to Major Douglas H. Gillette engineer officer of the Alaska Road Commission, who re- turned here recently after making a trip to the lower river.
 The Major made a round trip across the portage and was pleased to find the work going smoothly. Lots of progress has been made despite unfavorable weather throughout the greater part of the summer. Fore man Charlie Mayben has a crew of only five or six men under him. Mrs. Margaret Robinson, who is doing the cooking, has become famous in the country for her fine meals and her fortitude in staying there in one of the worst years for mosquitoes ever known. The portage country is known by oldtimers as the original home of the pests, but they are said to have been worse this year than for long time.
 When improvements have been completed the portage can be crossed in less than IF hours, without un- loading of boats, Major Gillette states. Under former conditions the trip took three days, the distance being approximately no miles. The rigging has been arranged in such a manner that one man can transfer a loaded boat from a waterway to the tram cars.
 Three portages are necessary. These are crossed by a canal and two rail lines, each nearly mile in length.
 Next year . crew will be sent down to finish up the woork. Some con- tract work will be done during the winter. The Mud creek relief cabin will be moved to Johnson CT eek; ways will be built at the end of the rail- road tracks, and Crooked creek will be brushed out.

ITO CONTINUE SALVAGE WORK
 ON STR. ISLANDER NEXT YEAR

We have ceased operations for tthis season on the Islander for lack ,of the proper floating equipment and housing facilities at this time. While we have not accomplished all we ex- Ipected to, we are we'll satisfied with .our seasons work, inasmuch as we ,are absolutely sure of bein able to Swor in water of any depth up to 1000 feet with good results" Carl Wiley, who headed the party which attempt ted this summer to recover the treas aure lost on the Islander 28 years ago, ssaid to a Juneau Empire reporter be- 1fore leaving for tie south, recently.
 We expect to return in teh spring with equipment that will be unques- ttionable for deep water work and feel scorAidept of bsng able, to recover s5 per cent of e treasure lost on the
 Islander. We have gained consider gable knowledge of the water and its workings from the surface to 499 feet below and within the near fu- tture hope to remove the mysteries of the deep entirely" MT. Wiley de- sclared.
 During most of the summer Mir. Wiley had party of 14 men work ing with hi mfrom the barge which they had anchored of the lower end of Dohglas Island. Most of them, including MT. Wiley's father, Ray imond Wiley, and his two brothers, Raymond Wiley, Jr., and E. H. Wiley, left for the south last week. They are leaving a smal! camp, in charge of a .watchman, on Marmon island during the winter.
 The Islander is lying on the sea bottom at a depth of 380 feet, &C., scording to Mir. Wiley, while the deep lest diving successfully accomplished before was at 8 depth of PAP feet, he said.
 When they first began operations last; spring, they were only able to dive, directly below the barge which was: anchored directly above them, but, with experience ti.ey became able to'.manipulate the alvin gbell to any psrt of the Islander with the barge located in any direction within 100 zfsst' of the spot below which the .siauder is located.

HOOVER BACKS
ROOT PLAN ON
PEACE LEAGUE
President Will Urge Senate
Adoption of Formula
for Adherence.
BY LYLE c. WILSON
United Press star CoErespondent

WASHINGTON, Aug. I9.-Presi-
dent Hoover's formal acceptance OF
the Elihu Root formula for Ameri-
can adherence to the World Court
is ready for publication.
Mr.. Hoover has decided to request
senate approval Of the Root plan
as a substitute for the senate reser-
vations which for three years have
prevented the United States from
becoming a court member.
Next month the League Of Ma
tons assembly in annual meeting at
Geneva will pass upon the revised
court statutes which Root and a
commission Of jurists drafted last
spring. The revised statutes, in the
opinion of Mr.. Hoover, Secretary CT
State Stimson and other advocates
of American adherence, remove the
conditions against which the senate
sought protection.
Only seven of the forty-seven
court members assented to the
American reservations. Objections
of other members concerned two Of
the senate's reservations. One pro-
vided the United States might at
any time withdraw its adherence to
the protocol and that the statute for
the court could be amended without
the consent of the Unied States.
The other reservation provided the
court could not, without the consent
of the United States, entertain any
request for an advisory opinion
touching any dispute or question in
which the United States had or
claimed an interest.
Administration leaders are aware
of opposition in the senate to eX-
changing the senate reservations for
Roots formula.
Coolidge refused to ask the senate
to modify its position. Mr.. Hoover
reversed this policy. Secretary of
State Kellogg reopened the subject
in a note to the league suggesting
negotiations be resumed. Elihu Root,
a warm personal friend of Mr. Hoo
verS, soon afterward went to Geneva
as a member of a commission of
iurists to revise the court statutes.
His purpose, primarily, was to de-
wise revisions which would enable
