ECKMANN TELLS OF SERVICE BY AIR FOR M ALL
Tells Chamber of Com merce Members Prop
 osition Up to People

Speaking pe1ore the June u Chamber of Commerce at the noon luncheon today, Anscel c. Eek mann, pilot of the plane Juneau which arrived here Monday after a nonstop flight from Seattle, said that the coming of air mail service for the Territory depended upon the interest of the people in such a service and their support of that service after it was once started.
 MT. Eckmann was the principal speaker at the luncheon and in his talk he outlined what he is here to do for the Washington Alaska Airways Company, which he repre- sents.
 MT. Eckmann stated that he full ly believed that airplane service from the States to Alaska would be a profitable enterprise for any and all companies entering the field. He also spoke on the scenic attractions that are to be seen in the north 
 country from the air and especial ly referred to the two trips made to Sitka yesterday. We, in and around Seattle, boast of our Mount Rainier, but since arriving in Alas ka I have seen from the air thousand Mount Rainiers," said MT. Eckmann.
 Flight to Skagway
 As to his plans, MT. Eckmann told the Chamber members at the Luncheon that he would make two flights to Skagway this afternoon with pay passengers aboard. To- morrow he stated that he was go- ing to hop for Seattle with as many passengers as desired to make the flight. In this connection he stated that passage at this time has been engaged for the air trip.
 Enroute to Seattle a stop will be made at Ketchikan.
 Speaking of the air mail again MT. Eckmann said that he hoped to take on the return trip south one pouch of mail from Juneau. Local P. O. officials have wired for authority to send the first through air-mail and a similar request of the postal authorities was made by cable yesterday by H. L. Faux ner, President of the Chamber of Commerce. A reply is expected to come from Washington before the ship leaves tomorrow.
 Optimistic Report
 Reaching Seattle, Pilot Eckmann will report to his company officials and at the luncheon he gave the listeners to believe that the report will be highly optimistic one that will hurry the coming of regu- lar air service to Alaska from the States.
 MT Eckmann said that his company had at this time, placed deposits on five planes of the same type as that which he piloted north. These planes, he said, will be for the Alaska service One or two will be put on first and as the service expands, more will be add ed.
 MT Eckmann plans on returning north after short stay in the

audit printed for submission to each Legislature.
 Passes Many Measures
 The Senate passed four Senate bills, two Senate Memorials, two House bills and one House memor- ial yesterday Authority for con- tinuation of the Prospectors' Aid experiment is contained in the Dunn bill that was passed. It carries no appropriation but au- thorizes such appropriation to be made in the general supply bill. Other measures included one au- thorizing the Treasurer to make refund of trap license taxes to any one paying same in good faith and who is thereafter prevented from using the location by reason of Government intervention; another carrying $74131 to pay cert in quarantine expenses at Fairbanks; one extending the provisions of the Section 406 Compiled Laws relating to general elections, to all special and school elections; a House bill requiring all employees of the Territory and municipalities to be citizens of the United States; and a House measure authorizing the Territorial Road Commission to clear snow from highways under it's maintenance program.

 Chamber to Assist Haines
 A report of the Executive Com mittee of the Chamber was made on the resolution whereby the body voted to assist R. L. Haines to the extent of $100 toward his a tt tempt at establishing a new worlds marathon record for out board motored boats. The sum to help finance the venture was point ed out as being a fund for fuel which for the trip will cost ap- proximately that amount.
 After hearing the report Presi- dent Faulkner called on Haines to tell of his proposed venture Haines stated that the small 13-foot boat was complete at this time and that the motor, a 22-horsepower Evin- rude, had been shipped from Seat tie on the Steamer Alameda last Tuesday and would reach Juneau the latter part of this week. He also stated that the present mara thon record is $50 miles and if he is successful in making the four stop trip rom Juneau to Olympia he would be bettering the record three times over He also told of some of the arrangements made for the showing of the boat and outfit after the long cruise, in Seattle and Portland. Concluding he stated that the name Miss Ju- neau" was at this time being paint ed on the boat in large letters at the Smith Paint Shop.

that time to 1921 there is no record

did not require it. In 1927 by order Of
