NEW FINDS IN TAKU DIS-
 TRICT CREATING INTEREST

New claims on the south branch of the Taku river, about 8 or 9 miles from the fork, have been made by T. k. Arnold and partners, who arrived in Juneau recently after an absence of several weeks.
 Accidentally stumbling upon the veins of ore while travelling up the creek, Arnold and his associates had considerable difficulty in stalking their prospects, and were unable to reach the dikes which looked most promis ing, Arnold efplained.
 The claim are about one mile down river from the Erickson dikes, and are on the left side goilng up. Two red gossans showing in the sides of a steep cliff first attracted their at tention. After considerable effort they scaled part of the cliff and found at least five feet of mineral on each side of the dike. They staked all ground they could reach..
 From all indications, Arnold said, the veins, which they. claim. are an extension of those staked by Barthol and Joe Hill. The vein. was visible for a stretch of about 60 feet. Several hundred feet away Barthol picked up what he believes to be an extension of the same ore. Zach. party has three leads, and while the mineraliza- tion is somewhat different, the frac- tions, according to Arnold, are ap- parently the same..
 Farther up the river, about one mile from the Arnold group, 4 rAckland Finn has staked 32 claims. The show ings there are similar to those of the Erickson dikes-, There is about 1000 feet of visible naturalization, and while Finn has found no lead or zinc the indications are distinctly favor able.
 J. C. MacDougal and associates, have Is claims. on an extension rum ming toward the Erickson property. c. M. Lee has aAlarge number of stakes in, Arnold said.
 Arnold and his companions covered the Erickson basin, which runs about five miles,. and reported dikes throughout. As far up tie river as he went, fie said there were not many indications of prospecting. The dikes, he declared, extended at least five miles beyond Finnss property.
 Possibilities of finding other good ore bodies are excellent, he said. Ten mile. up river there is another. gQod-

GAME SHOWS GAIN IN Me-
 KINLEY NATIONAL PARK

The game animals of Mckinley na- tional park are not being greatly dls- turbed by predators, according to Fritz Nyberg, chief ranger, who re- gently spent six weeks making an in- vestigation of conditions. Only five wolves were seen on the trip, winch took him from one end of the park to .ne other, and only two kills of sheep came to his attention.
 Signs are many that game is not being bothered. Sheep were observed in the flats along the rivers, While Ii wolves were numerou they would be in the high hills. 41oose signs we. c plentiful and many caribou were seen m the kantishna ois.rict ana auJa- cent districts. Ranger Nyberg count ea 5vU of the anImals from the han- lIhna ranger station.
 The park is a paradise for game, the ranger informed the News-Mlner following his arrivai in Fairbanks a few days ago. There is very little snow, ana feed is abundant. SnoN' has been entirely p-Nwn off many ot the slopes and passes. Ptarmigan are apparently coming back. laany more have been seen this winter than last"
 The fur catch, said Ranger ..yberg, has been light in t..e country border ing the park, but he believes it will larger than in most other sections.

GREAT FUTURE FOR EUR
 FARMING; INDUSTRY GROWS

reaSSurlng SCaCement CNaI the nyS- teria which attended the beginning of the domesticated fur-production industry of the United States and Canada is steadily disappearing. Stoc ksales and other forms of pro- motion, he says, are giving place to the makin gof profits out of the in- dustry itself.
 The results along the line have been satisfactory. As to fox farming in particular the speculative ele ments are almoost entirely gone. MT. Hedington is willing to be quoted as saying that fur. farming in all its branches has shown general improve ment in recent years, and may now be consideed a permanent addition to agricultural development"
 Statistics compiled by him show that there are approximately 5000 farmers in the United States and Alaska engaged in the production of one or more species of fur-bearing animals; the majority of them are raising silver, or blue foxes. The total investment in the business is be- tween $2O,OOO,OO and $30, 100000 and is increasing.
 Canada's Business.
 The Dominion Bureau of Statistics states that there are 3,380 fur farms in Conada, of which, 3,O67 are devot- ed to foxes. The value of these farms is $18,375,O00.
 The annual collection of silver fox skins offered. for sale 15 years ago did not exceed 100. During 1928-1929 approximately 8O,0O0 of them mere produced on farm sin the United States and Canada, The outstanding achievement in the growing oof the silver fox is credited to a company operating six ranches in Wisconsin. This is the, largest producer of silveer fox skins in, the world. Its output during 1928 " assold for $1,3OO,OOO.
 There are fox far msin many of the Northern border States, from Washington to the Great Lakes, and many of them are not making money, but the ooutlook for the future is very bright. More and more, as the population of the United States in- creases and fur animals are drven out of their natural habiitats, the coun- try depends on the fur farmers for it's supplies.
 Highly Specialized.
 The business is hound to develop. Officers of the. Biological Survey point out, however, that it is one of the most highly specialized in the en- tire agricultural field. In addition to energy, industry and perseverance, the fur farmer must have scientific knowledge of no mean sort, if he is to succeed. A part of this knowledge may be had froom books, but prac- tical experience is also necessary. But once the business is learned there is almost no end to the profits with proper management.
 The millions of profit now being made yearly on fox farms in the United States and Alaska will un- doubtedly be scores of millions in another. fifteen years. The demand on the fur farmer increases as the field ofathe. trapper becomes more re- stricted and the number of wild an- imals smaller. The annual catch of furs by tarppers in this country was about $6O,0OO,OO0 in 1928, but the total is decreasing.
 The value of fur production in Alaska Hast yer was $4,29O, 1000 and it is increasing, just as is true in the northern tiers of states.

man airplane DO-X will make ex-
tensive flights next week with a
view to reaching a definite de
ciSion on her projected cruise to
America. it was announced here
today.
Refuting reports published in
the United States that the trans
atlantic hop Of the passenger
liner had been postponed until
next year, Maurice Dornier
informed International News
Service that the result Of next
weeks trial flights alone Will
determine whether or not the
DO-X will cross the ocean this
year. He said:
1--WE have all of October in
which to get ready for the at
tempt. We can go over even
later by merely changing our
route"
The take-off for America has
been postponed several times be-
cause Of unsatisfactory perform
ance by the motors, which are Of
American make.
The plane has undergone num-
erous tests at its base at Al
tenrhein, Switzerland. At one
time it carried 156 persons aloft
as easily as it carries dozen.

8 SENATE SEATS
DEPENDING ON
DRY ISSUE
approximately so in House to
Be Fought for in Election
With Prohibition as Basis
BY GEORGE R. HOLMES

The extent to which the sharp
knife of prohibition has cut across
political lines and buried itself
deep in the vitalS Of both major
parties was revealed here today
when, with primaries and nomina-
ting conventions virtually conclud
ed. leaders estimated that no less
than eight Senate seats and ap
proximately so House seats prob.
ably will be decided in November
on the basis of the wet-and-dry
issue alone.
This is by far the greatest mum
ber Of clear-cut prohibition fights
any election has witnessed since
the adoption of the Eighteenth
Amendment. 1t is eloquent testi-
mony, too. to the growing popular
concern over prohibition.
With both parties split on the
issue, the survey made since the
conclusion Of the primaries re.
veals that. generally speaking, it
has been the Democrats who have
been boldest about grabbing the
wet end of the prohibition stick.
This is particularly true of the
senatorial contests. OF the eight
listed wherein prohibitioo is ac-
counted the chief, or deciding is
sue, the Democrats are wet in six
and dry in two. In Illinois. Penn
sylvania, Ohio. Massachusetts,,
Delaware and Rhode Island, the
Democratic aspirantS are opposed
to prohibition.

Arrest of 0rphanage Official
Reveals $4,000 Shortage
and Split in Dry League

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 10.
Serious diSsension within the
ranks Of the Virginia Anti.Saloon
League was revealed here today.
following closely the arrest OF
James p. Jones, former treasurer
of the league, On a charge Of
embezzEement Of orphanage funds.
The controversy, which Is being
carried in the Religious Herald.
a Baptist weekly Of this city. is
over the management of the dry
league, which is largely under
control of Bishop James Cannon.
IT,, and the Rev. David Hepburn.
superintendent. A series OF ques-
tions propounded by Clyde II.
Radcliffe. Richmond banker, who
has for years beenIsan active SUD.
porter Of the league, started the
dispute.
Wants Accounting
Radcliffe demanded to know
why the league had no president
or treasurer; he asked by whom
the present officers and commit
tees were appointed, and wished
to know when a financial state
ment was last made public. The
last president of the league was
DR.. John P. Mcconnell, who re-
signed during the last Presidential
election to support AL Smith,
while Jones was the last treasurer
Jones was arrested yesterday
on a warrant ordered by Com
monWealth'S Attorney Dave E.
Satterfield, and formally charged
with embezzlement Of $37, ,976.4 40
from the Virginia Methodist Or
phanage. He was released on
bond of SIS, 1000.
The arrest followed disclosure,
the commemorative attorney said,
of additional evidence" in an
investigation which has been
under way since a discrepancy
was discovered in Jones accounts
as treasurer of the Virginia Meth.
odist Orphanage last May, and
Jones resigned.
Taken from Orphanage
Satterfield said it had been dis
covered that Jones had deposited
$2,635.77 in the last six months
to the credit Of James P. Jones,
treasurer of the building fund Of
the Decatur Street Methodist
fund, and that this money was
taken from funds Of the orphan
age. The Rev. Otis L. Gillian,
pastor Of the church, said he
had no knowledge Of q building
fund.
The first discrepancy in Jones'
books as orphanage treasurer was
revealed in an audit in May.
Jones turned over his books to
the trustees in July with ap.
proximately $14,00O cash, but the
audit revealed an additional
shortage in excess Of $23, 200.
Jones offered settlement and
it was accepted and put in legal
form in August.
The Commemorative attorney,
however. ordered that a report
be made to him.
Jones, a former treasurer Of
the Anti-Saloon League, has been
an active church and prohibi-
ton leader for years.
