PROSPECTORS RETURN FROM MONTHS TRIP
 ON THE KETCHIKAN

Cedric Davis and William Scott returned on the seaplane Ketchi- kan, Pilot Anscel Eckmann, last evening from Crescent Lake, near the Whiting River, where they have been prospecting for the last month. Because they saw no favorable in- dications of there being gold-bear- ing veins in that section, the trip, intended to last two months, was shortened.
 Nine streams were prospected to their source, by MT. Scott and MT. Davis, and from eight to ten pans were taken along the rim on each stream in various places, but no colors were found, MT. Davis said.
 The formation consists of schist and granite, according to MT. Davis. Crescent Lake is four miles long and one-quarter mile wide. There are land otter in the lake and musk rats along the shore, and it is pos sible that there are other fur bearing animals in that vicinity, he said.
 Both MT. Scott and MT. Davis are loud in praise for the way il which MT. Eckmann piloted the seaplane both on the trip into the lake and on the return trip last evening.

LOCAL SALMON PLANTS AHEAD
 OF 1927 PACK
Fourteen Canneries Report 90,000 Cases Packed to
 End of Last Week

Fourteen canneries from Rake north to Yakutat and west to Sit- ka to the end of last week had packed approximately 90,0o0 cases of salmon, according to advices re- ceived by the United States Bu- reau of Fisheries here. This is said to be we'll ahead of the pack for 1927 on the corresponding date but is less than that of a year ago.
 The indications for this district are therefore, considered to be favorable as the pinks, which form the biggest portion of the pack, are a two-year fish and this season is the next cycle year after 1927. The Ketchikan showing to the end of the week was poor.
 Fishing started there on July 5, and packs at the end of the week were too light to be reported. Nine teen canneries are operating in that area. Thirteen are to begin operations July Is, in the South West Coast district on Prince of Wales Island. The season opened yesterday in the North West Coast area which includes the Wrangell district.
 The Alaska Pacific Salmon Cor poration plant at Funter Bay leads in this district with 18,153 cases packed up to last Saturday night. The same company's plant at Port Althorp was second with 17,525 cases. The Excursion Inlet plant of the Pacific American Fisheries was third high with 12,300 cases. Astoria & Puget Sound at the same location had 8,348 cases; the North western Fisheries at Dundas Bay 7,040; Alaska Pacific at Rake 2,000; Fidalgo Island at Pillar Bay 943; Sebastian and Stuart at Tyee 1,130; P.

 Praises Local Agents
 Col. Quinlan praised the co-or- dination shown by Alaskan Federal agents, mentioning particularly Mai. Malcolm Elliott and the Alas ka Road Commission, Col. o. F.. Ohlson, general manager of The Alaska Railroad and Col. Frank J. Griffin, head of the cable system. He said one of the main objects of his visit was to aid Federal agents here in getting better coordination so that they could render the best possible service to Alaskans.
 He functions purely in an advis- ory capacity. He is gathering in formation for the President to sup plement that received from regular sources.
 He has been highly delighted with the scenic wonders of Alaska and asserted it lis ghastly to think that so many people of the States will pay money to go to Europe when they have this wonderful country to see"
 Offers Loca. Aid
 Col. Quinlan volunteered his as- sistance to the Chamber in matters it might be interested in in Wash ington. He has his headquarters in that city and said anything he could do to aid the Chamber would be done gladly. If I haven't got the information you want, l know where I can get it." he de- clared.
 At the outset of hls talk, Col Quinlan described briefly the work of the co-ordinators, the system as it has been developed and the value of the work to the nation. It was originated by Gen. Charles G. Dawes in France during the World f War and adapted by him as Di- rector of the Budget to the peace time needs of the country.
 One of it's primary concepts is that there are no public funds, and that every dollar expended for Gov ernmenea. ae..vities is private mon- ey, coming from the pockets of the 1 taxpayers.

QU|NLAN TELLS LOCAL CHAMBER
 OF HOOVER AIM
Says President Determined to Bring About Sane
 Development Here

President Hoover is determined to bring about sane and substantial development of Alaska's resources, declared Col D. P. Quinlan, per- sonal representative of the Presi- dent and special assistant to the Chief Co-Ordinator of the United States, in a short talk to the Cham Der of Commerce, today.
 Col. Quinlan is a member of the Adjutant Generals corps of the Army, executive of the Federal Real Estate Board and member of the Public Buildings Commission in addition to his duties as Federal Co-Ordinator. He started to Alas ka some 30 odd years ago, got side tracked in the Department of Jus tice for three and cne-half years, switched into the Army at the time of the Spanish War and has been there ever since.
 Has Special Interest
 q have deep interest and the President has a special interest in Alaska" declared Col. Quinlan. Two years ago, he said, he was actively precipitated into the Alaska situa- tion by Mir Hoover, then Secretary of Commerce, who requested certain information and Col. Quinlan was asked to dig it up. Since that time he has been accommodating data regarding the Territory. At this time, he said, he has half dozen matters relating to Alaska under investigation.
 Last May, Col. Quinlan had a conference with the President and the latter at that time, "in language more forceful than elegant" ex- presse his determination to straighten out the Alaska situation. The President is determined, said the speaker, that the government in Alaska is going to be so regulated that it will afford opportunity for stabilized development, protect all property rights, eliminate duplica- tion and waste and end any con- flict between Territorial and Fed eral activities.
 "As far as he is concerned he is about fed up on conflict" declared Col. Quinlan. The latter gave it as his conviction that Alaska would be the scene of great development under MT. Hoover. There are many projects being considered in the Territory, he said, and on the same boat on which he arrived here yes terday, ullere were two or three mer representing large interests who art
