NEW SEAPLANE TO COME HERE
 ON WEDNESDAY
R. E. Robertson Flies to
 Rake and Will Go
 to Ketchikan

Advices were received today by A B. Hayes of the Alaska Washington Airways that it's new seaplane for operation in this territory would ar- rive in Seattle Monday from the factory in California and that it would fly here next Wednesday This plane is expected to be based in Prince William Sound to afford quick transportation facilities to executives of fishery interests en- gagged in those waters.
 The Wrangell, now in Ketchikan, will be based there for the immedi- late future, at least.
 The Taku, Robert P. Ellis, pilot and Frank Hatcher, mechanic, went to Hawk Inlet this morning, picked up Hans Floe of the P. E. Harris Packing Company there, and brought him to Juneau.
 Attorney Goes to Rake
 The seaplane then took R. E. Robertson, attorney, and H. Y. Baird, Seattle representative of the Burroughs Adding M chin e Company, to Funter Bay, picked up Gilbert Skinner, president of the Alaska Pacific Salmon Corpora tion, there and took MT. Robertson, MT. Baird and MT. Skinner to Rake.
 At Rake, the Wrangell from Ket- chikan was to call and take the three men to Ketchikan.
 The Taku returned to Juneau from Rake late this forenoon, and was scheduled this afternoon to return MT. Floe to Hawk Inlet. leave some machinery parts at Todd for the cannery there, and then proceed to Waterfall with w. E. Rooney and c. M. Witt, representa- tives of the American Can Com pany, who were to board the plane here and who arrived in Juneau from the Westward this morning on the Steamship Alaska.
 Scheduled for Ketchikan
 From Waterfall, the Taku was scheduled to go to Ketchikan and bring to Juneau MT. Robertson, and two persons from Seattle, who are waiting in Ketchikan to come here.
 Poor visibility impairs flying to- day, but Airways officials plan on having the Taku return to Juneau from Ketchikan this evening.

ROAD OFFICERS
 OF TERRITORY
 COMPLETED TRIP
Cole and Sommers Return from Inspection of
 Roads and Fields

After a five-week trip through interior, eastern and south central Alaska, Cash Cole, Auditor, and Secretary of the Territorial Road Commission, and R. J. Sommers, Highway Engineer, returned here today. They inspected many road projects and airplane landing fields, end authorized some new work.
 New landing fields were author ized for construction on upper Chitina, at the head of Chitina River, and at Chistochena Im- provements were authorized on the fields at Chicken Creek, Eagle and Circle Hot Springs.
 Flight Over Mt. Mckinley
 MT. Cole and MT. Sommers ac . companied the Governor on flight over Mt Mckinley. It was one Of the most wonderful trips imagin- able, both agreed. Thousands of mountain sheep were seen on the trip.
 Another aerial trip was made by the two road officials taking them from Fairbanks to while, Eagle, the Circle district, Fort Yu- kon and back to Fairbanks. Other points covered were: Richardson Highway, Valdez to Fairbanks, Cor dova and Copper River Railway towns, Nizina, the entire Fairbanks district, Alaska Railroad to Seward and Mt. Mckinley National Parks.
 Some new work was authorized in a limited amount, as the major DOT tion of Territorial funds had been allotted in the annual program.
 Mining Is Normal
 Mining activities in the interior are about normal this season, it was said. The Fairbanks Exploration Company is operating fleet of five dredges at full capacity. Diff ficulties such as were encountered in thawing of frozen ground in past years apparently have been overcome, and operations are going ahead according to the companys predetermined program. The re- suits this year seem to be entirely satisfactory to the management and the general opinion of the dis trict is that the returns are very satisfactory.
 Indications point to a revival of individual mining operations which have been at low point for sev- eral years. Many small properties are being examined for future work, and a few are being started up now. Lower prices and improved labor conditions are the main fac tors in this devlopment.
 Quiet as a Whole
 On the whole, however, business conditions were found to be quiet. The tourist business has shown a heavy decline. and this is being felt adversely by business and transportation interests.
 Mt. Mckinley National Park is the one exception. Tourist trade there has been as good as that of 1929 up to the present time, but not as heavy as had been expected. Many bookings were cancelled, but the company operating the conces- sions in the park are satisfied with the showing.
 MT. Sommers will leave this eve ming on the Northwestern for Skag- way. Returning here on the same steamer, he will visit Sitka, Peters burg and Wrangell next week.

LOCAL SALMON
 PACK MAY BE OVER AVERAGE
Superintendent Floe, Hawk Inlet, Says Above Nor
 nal Pack Probable

Southeast Alaska's salmon pack probably will be slightly above nor nal, it is generally believed by packers, according to Hans Floe Superintendent of the P. E. Harris plant at Hawk Inlet. He came here by plane today to obtain a boat to replace one that was wrecked re- gently near Point Retreat.
 There is a wonderful run of fish in progress in Icy Strait, one of the largest ever known" MT Floe said. Both seiners and traps are making good catches.
 At the end of last week, the Hawk Inlet plant was 2,0oO cases behind last seasons pack at the same date. Since that time. the differ ence has been wiped out and by to- night the plant will be ahead of the pack at this time last year.
 Seine boats have had an unusual ly good season, particularly in the Icy Strait area. MT. Floe has pur- chased considerable fish taken by seiners operating there. The pink fish, up to the present time, have run somewhat smaller than last season, packing about 20 to the case as against IT year ago.
 MT. Floe expects to return to Hawk Inlet this afternoon, taking the plane Taku for the trip if weather will permit.

AvIATORs PEDAL TO U. sI
 FROM ARGENTINE CAPITAL


 BALTIMORE, July 1e.-Bicycllng from Buenos Aires, Joseph Fibre and Louis Cuneo, Italian air pilots and world war veterans, have ar rived here.
 The two men left Italy November 5, 1927, for the Argentine capital, whence they said they made the entire Journey of 10000 miles to Baltimore on bicycles.
 Over considerable part of the distance from South America to the United States, the roads gener- ally were poor, but were better in Mexico, they said.
 Small, rather than large snakes, formed one of the principal dangers of the trip, they said.

PLANTS IN SLEEPING ROOM
 ARE DECLARED HARMLESS

WASHINGTON, July 19.-Plants in a sleeping room generally are harmless to the occupant. in the opinion of Dr. A. F. Woods, direc- tor of scientific work in the depart ment of agriculture.
 Completing an investigation of the chemical action of plants in the air of an ordinary room, Dr. Woods said he found the plants of an or dinary greenhouse would not con- tribute enough carbon dioxide to injuriously taint the air
 Many hospitals, he points out, remove flowers and plants at night from patients rooms.
 The only occasion for taking plants and flowers from sleeping rooms, he says, is when they are poisonous, or occupants of the room are susceptible to hay fever.
