NEW CONCERN
 TO START ON
 TAKU MONDAY
Transportation and Trad ing Company Boat Due
 North Tomorrow

With the first trip up the Taku River scheduled for next Monday, active participation of the Taku Transportation and Trading Com pany in the freight and passenger business to the new mineral belt will begin then, it was announced today by Capt. L. H. Fraser, who is in charge here.
 Incorporated in Canada, this new concern will operate regular River service with 8 45-foot river boat Tomorrow morning at 6 o'clock this craft, the Taku River, is due to arrive at Taku Inlet with scow.
 On the scow will be at least six flat bottom skiffs with outboard motors which will be for charter, rent or sale, according to Capt. Fraser. As the Company he repre- sents is incorporated in Canada, it will not be possible for his boat to take passengers out of Juneau for Taku Inlet.
 Local Arrangements
 Thsi difficulty will be overcome, he said, by arrangements with un- named local interests to carry pas sengers to Taku Inlet, from where he will take them to Tulsequah.
 The Taku Transportation and Trading Company boats are those which some time ago were credited here with being owned by the Pacific Salvage Company. This error made in an announcement in a Prince Rupert newspaper, was probably due to the fact that an of ficial of the salvage concern is in- terested in the Taku project, Capt. Fraser said
 Capt Fraser expects several men on the Taku River tomorrow. Later he will have a man stationed as an agent here, in an office which he has already opened at the Winter and Pond Studio.
 To Offer Facilities
 It is the aim of the Taku Trans portation and Trading Company, declared Capt. Fraser, to offer all available facilities for passengers and freight in an effort to secure a share of the business. Later his interests may erect a stopping place at Tulsequah for the convenience of travellers, he said.

peals OF the District of Columbia. Last
year the commission personally re-
viewed and passed upon 6,972 applica-
tons. This years total is expected to
approach 5000.
When the commission started func-
tioning, in Harch, 1927, 1t had force
of eight secretaries and clerks. One
commissioner optimistically predicted:
We'll clean this job up, provide good
reception for listeners and be home
again in six months"
But radio has just begun to hit its
real stride. Television was coming on,
aviation was finding radio essential to
safe naViation, the radio telegraph and
telephone were developing rapidly and
the interchange of programs with Eu-
ropean countries was presenting new
problem in channel assignment.
STAFF Now Numbers 80.
Today the commissions staff num-
bers go, including legal and engineer

OF 16, and a large force of Stenogra-
pliers and clerks.
There has been a slowing down. how
ever, in one activity which once de-
manded considerable commission atten-
ton. Fan mail has greatly decreased in
volume. This is ascribed to the fact
that the radio has ceased to be a
novelty, distance reception has lost its
lure for many and reception is generally
considered good

235 MOTHERS SAIL
TO FRENCH GRAVES
Gold Star Group Carry Me-
mentos for Resting Places
of Sons.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July S.-Guarding the
precious mementos from home that are
to be placed on the graves of their sons,
235 Gold Star Mothers boarded the
S. S. President Harding to sail for
France today with the eleventh pill
grimage of war mothers.
Every bag and suit case carried a
token-some cherished for years, others
prepared at the last moment-each to
be laid on the last resting places of 235
Americans who lost their lives in the
World War.
Mrs. Martha Hadley of Kansas City,
Mo. carried a carefully-wrapped box
containing pressed flowers, tied with
ribbon, picked by her 10 children and
il grandchildren for a tribute to the
memory of her son, Thomas Ross Had
ley, who was killed in battle June IT,
1918.
And the package of Mrs. Emma D.
Murtagh of Pickens, Miss, and Mrs
Margie Field of Madison, Miss, held
tiny silk American flags, as did the
luggage of dozens of other mothers on
the pilgrimage.
To many of those who boarded the
liner the pilgrimage represents a dream
which they feared would fade even at
the last moment
Mrs. Hadley, visiting the Cathedral
of St. John the Divine here yesterday
with number of the Gold Star Moth
ers, got lost from the party and found
herself, after several hours, talking to
a group of people who didn't wear any
badges at ALL" After a lengthy search
she found a bus and made her way
back to her party.
Il was afraid they'd go without me"
she said. And I won't have much
peace till I get to Paris. 1 can't get
lost there. because my grandson will be
there to show me around"
The greater part of today's pilgrim
age comes from the South and West.
