9ADIOMAN BOSTON
 SETS MARK FOR BOYS

For the first time ever logged ln the radio book of the s. s. Starr, Radioman Wilbur c. Boston, who is known among Alaskan operators as one of the best, and who is. without doubt, the oldest in point of service, successfully reached the Seward station from Bristol Bay about two weeks ago As far as is known, it was the first time on re- cord.
 Radioman Boston is an expert from the ground up and what he has forgotten about the game would fill a book. He is thinking strongly of quitting the sea, court some beautiful young lady, marry, then re-enlist in the Signal Corps, U. s. Army, in which he has already put behind him more than 14 years Only Is years more to go and he will be retired on a good pension.

FLOATING CITY FORMED
 IN FAR WEST WARD

A floating city is located at Nak- nek for at this period of the season there are many large steamers ly- ing in the roadstead and hundreds of smaller craft comprising the mosquito fleet.
 When the s. s. Starr arrived there on the last voyage it was at night and when, after lodging about and settling on favorable anchorage, the hook was dropped, the sturdy little vessel was in the midst of blaze of light reflected from nearby steamers, freighters and trampS.
 Tt was then the Stars turn to turn on all deck lights and even over the sides electric lights were hung beside Jacob ladders up which visitors and passengers could board ship. Small boats bringing mail and passengers had their work cut out for them for at that time there was a heavy flood tide on; one mariner said it was running 15 miles an hour

It is said that the Nikolski tribe If natives on Umnak Island are he richest in Alaska It is also said that the natives on Atka Island share this honor. In any case two years ago the Nikolski -ribe sold 1000 blue foxes for which they received the round sum cash -$5O0O0 They operate 3 community fox island and a store and the proceeds from these are divided annually among the inhabitants who have attained he age of 21 or over.
 It is estimated that the tribe worth one-quarter of million dollars.

WASHINGTON STUDENT MAKING GOOO AS
 TEACHER AT UNNAk

The University of Washington is to be complimented for turning out a young fellow named E. P StoWell who is now engaged as school teacher at Umnak. He is one of the sincerest workers in the large corps of efficient teachers employ cd by the Bureau of Education This is readily observed after a few minutes of conversation with him.
 But the word teacher is rather misleading when applied to any of these workers for making scholars of the natives of Alaska is really not the main motive behind it all but rather looking after their pres ent and future welfare And that is where MT. Stowell fits in per fectly.
 He is teaching them to raise truck gardens, for one thing, be- cause he is confident iron is what the native needs to successfully combat the diseases which prevail among them. This fall he plans an exhibit and will also serve dinner to which every native in the village will be invited in addition to this he will make it a point to see that each and every one taste of the various dishes in order that they become familiar, in a way, with the vegetable.
 Another experiment which thls energetic young student and work CT anticipates carrying forward this wear is the continued study of trees and grasses. The soil is wonder full, he says, and especially So further back on the island. He will plant apple trees which, he stated, the further north they grow the better the apple; as we'll as cherry trees. He is not sure about these latter but nevertheless will experl- ment along those lines.
 So from raw fish eaters and former old tribal customs among which was the manner babes were ushered into the world, the Bureau of Education is slowly bringing the native of Alaska up to modern standards, not only thru the med ium of books and the school room but by having on it's staff such men as MT. stowell who are able to inn part practical knowledge. The de- partment has many men of this type and, in most cases, they are assisted by their capable wives who, in most cases, either are employed as teachers or as nurses.

LIGHT IS
 SECOND, BER|NG SEA

From the sea Cape Sarichef, the second government lighthouse out Westward, comprises the light, set rather high up on the cliff, and below it just above the beach line, three good sized houses; in addi- ton there are a few outbuildings.
 Cutters leave supplies for those stationed at these lights but the steamer Starr, drops off the each month. Tn good weather it is an easy problem to drop a boat overside and go ashore with the pouch but when heavy surf is booming, the only alternative is to work in to shore as closely as pos sible, have the men on shore heave out line, then haul the pouch ashore.
 A mile or so down the beach from the light a couple of hundred great sea lions can generally be seen strutting their stuff. This is land is said to be the finest red fox island in the Territory

 WATERS, PER|L0US

"The -of creation" is the most popular name by which Port Heiden, in the Bristol Bay country, is called by all mariners who are compelled to make that port The writer has not the "gutS" to fill in the space left blank but the reader
 may use his or her own imagina- tion. What ever names they arrive at, getting in or out of Port Heiden is about the most ticklish and dan gerouS task which a skipper of any size vessel could possible by con- fronted with.
 At night there is only one thing to do before entering and that is to anchor until daylight comes; and when daylight arrives the vessel slowly creeps in and around the scores of reefs, mud flats and fighting the tide, with not single marker ashore of any description, owing to the formation of the land which is perfectly flat dribbl1ng away to nothing in the sea, a cap tain has his work more than cut out for him. It is one of those places were unless markers and lights are placed, should be strictly avoided. at least by steamers the size of the $. s. Starr
 Reefs and flats during a calm sea are absolutely hidden and where one expects deep water, there, more than likely, is some thing else. Any kind of a sea, or wind will create sufficient waves for a skipper to detect with ease the nearness of one bf these hidden menaces, but during calm weather, and no marks, the destiny of the ship is in the hands of God alone.
 The writer has often heard the so and 50 is NO good
 (fill it out again) that he is cranky unaccommodating, ana so on, but let it be known if the ordinary mortal had to daily face the hazards and make a safe moor age at places such as this Port Hell den. they probably would be a darn sight worse; either that or be eligl- ble for the nut factory within year
 And aside from the dangerous cork-screw channel, a skipper, after sailing along for a couple of hundreds of miles in the ocean must constantly search the Hat coastline, which deyiated not one iota from what it was 100 miles away, for what might be termed the knothole which marks the entrance.
 They must have second sight, that's all!

PRAVDA SAYS WAFDISTS
WILL NOT LEAD MASSES
OF EGYPT TO REVOLT
Wafdists Always Compromise With British
Imperialism Whenever Possible
Egyptian Workers Must Lead Peasants to
Bring About Revolution

MOSCOW QP.S.).-Commenting
upon the situation in Egypt
"Pravda" (July 16) writes, among
other things, the following:
"The struggle of the Egyptian
nationalist bourgeoisie against
King Fuad and his feudal clique
which represent the strongest sup
port of British imperialism in
Egypt, is gaining in sharpness. AS
far as the events depend on the
action of the Wafd party, there will
be no decisive attack on the die
tatorial ministry of Ismail Pasha,
and still less any determined action
with a view to liquidating the mon
archy in Egypt The Wafdists
wish to dispose Of the uncomfort-
able competition of British capital
ism in Egypt, and for this reason
they demand national independence
and freedom of development for
Egypt. Freedom of development Of
course meaning the enrichment of
the Egyptian bourgeoisie and the
sole right of exploitation in Egypt
for the Egyptian capitalists. At
the same time, however, the Waf-

dists let no opportunity pass to
offer Great Britain a peaceful solu-
ton of the conflict. The Wafdists
will take very good care not to
draw the Egyptian masses into any
campaign for civil disobedience, be-
cause the results of any such cam
paign would probably be even more
serious in Egypt than in India. The
utmost to be expected from the
Wafdists is that they will organize
a few mild attempts to boycott
British goods. Otherwise they will
content themselves with protests.
The anxiety expressed by the Brit
ish conservative press that the Waf-
dists will stir up a revolution in
India, is not honest. 1t is nothing
but an attempt to compromise the
Wafdists. The revolution in Egypt
will take place when the masses of
the Egyptian peasantry under the
leadership of the Egyptian work.
ing class organize to bring it about.
First of all however, it will be
necessary for the peasant masses to
emancipate themselves from the
theological influence of the Waf-
dists.
