E|ELSON --BORLUND
 BODIES ARE FOUND

The battered bodies of Carl Ben Eielson and Earl Borlund, long missing Alaskan flyers, were located early this week in the snow near their shat cred airplane on the bleak Si- berian coast near North Cape.
 Borlund, with his head badly crushed, was found about 60 feet from the wrecked plane, while the body of Eielson was found in the wreckage. His neck was broken Both were apparently killed instantly in the crash of their ship.
 Eielson's body is now enroute to the States for burial at his home. Borlund will be inferred at Fairbanks, the reports say.

Ernest Blue, local attorney, delivered an interesting ad- dress on the proposed Inter- national Highway and the Peace River railroad situation at the weekly meeting of the Stewart Board of Trade in Stewart Tuesday evening. In addition to offering much inter- esting information on the rail- and highway topics, MT. Blue who is Hyder's most accomp- lished and entertaining public also touched upon fi- nancial conditions in the south and presented an optimistic view of conditions as observed during his recent visit in the States.
 Respecting the highway pro- ject, MT Blue said it is attract ing immense interest Outside and the view is general that the highway will be started in the not distant future. The con- struction of the road will bring millions of dollars to British Columbia and Alaska and with a branch to Stewart will bring an immense tourist traffic to this district.

CENSUS RETURNS SHOW
 SLIGHT INCREASE IN
 LOCAL POPULATION

The population of the town of Hyder, as shown by a pre- liminary count of the returns of the Fifteenth Census, taken as of October 1, 1929, is 254, ac- cording to an announcement by Governor George A. Parks. The announcement indicates, however, that the figures are preliminary and are subject to correction, which means that the final, official count will be announced later.
 The smallness of the figures will doubtless be a surprise to many, but is probably due to the enumeration having taken place in the late fall, when a considerable number of those who make their homes here had left for the winter without registering for the census. The figures nevertheless show a small increase in the local pop ulation since the census of 19- 20, when the population was 237, according to the govern OTIS statement.
 The population of the entire Hyder district is placed in the preliminary report at 313 at the time of the enumeration

HYDER, ALASKA, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY P, ls3o
COL. E. R. SEWERS TO
 TAKE NOME POST

Col. E R. Stivers, deputy col lector of customs at this port since 1921 and one of the dist rict's best known citizens, an- nounced Thursday that he has accepted the position of deputy collector of customs at Nome, made vacant by the transfer of K. w. J. Reed to Wrangell.
 Col. Stivers was rendered the position by J. c. Mcbride, GUS toms collector for the Alaska district, few days ago and de- cided to accept, although he is somewhat loath to leave Hyder after so many years of residence.
 As the port of Nome is closed during the winter season and will not reopen until June, Col. Stivers expects to remain here until shortly before the open-, ing of navigation in Boring Sea. Col. Stivers is we'll acquainted with the Nome district, having resided there for some years during the famous gold rush days.

JAS. ROBERTS WRITES
 OF NEW CAMP

Manitoba, to Edgar Frovinse, James Roberts, former local resident, describes in a vivid manner the new mining camp which has come into existence at that point in connection with the development of the Sherr- itt-Gordon mine. MT. Roberts, who is accompanied by his bride of a few weeks, is in charge of a large meat market and cold storage plant erected by Burns & Company to supply the Sheritt- Gordon and Fin
 Zion mines, both of which are located near Sheridan.
 Sheridan. MT. Roberts ex- plains, is located about 90 miles north of The Pas. and is a typical boom" camp of the North.
 Everybody wears buckskin, parkies and moccasins," the latter says, land dog teams are much in evidence. Dog teams leave here for the trading posts and prospecting camps and a team came in yesterday (Jan- uary 22) from a place 200 miles north of here. Every thing started here since Mo- vember. Most of the buildings are constructed of logs but modern construction is now un- der way. The Fin Flon mine is just about 40 miles across country from here. There are 5000 men working there. The Fin Flon has invested B mil lions in the mine already and are building a smelter too. The Sherritt- Gordon will send their ore there for treatment.
 The steel was just finished here last November, so you can what the place is like. The old name of the place was Kissinning, or Cold Lake, and it can get cold; for it was as cold as 60 below two weeks ago. The country is rocky bluffs and hills, with lakes and swamps and is covered with pines of small size. Burns & Co. have a plant here of about the size of the one in Prince Rupert. It is sure a dandy. They have a plant at the Flin Flon, too, and have a contract to sup ply meat to both mines.
 We are staying in two rooms built in, the plant. They are double widowed and the walls are insulated like an ice box. With two big heaters in, you would never imagine it was cold outside. The place has cost about $10,000 so far and the machinery is to be put in yet. So far I am just sitting around, keeping the fires going and listening to friend wife's advice. She came with me and we are having lots of fun. l will have a carload of meat in Tuesday. One thing 1 have not iced here is that the trades people who are already estab- ished have no hold-up prices. You can buy just about the same as you would in a city.
 You might show this letter to the folks in Hyder and remem- Der me to all"

TRAIL TRAGEDY AT
 GEORGIA RIVER

Worn to the limit of his en- durance- by terrific struggle through the deep snow on the Smile trail between the Gaor- gia River mine and the beach camp on Portland Canal, Is miles south of Hyder, Harold Reaton, only son of Wellington Beaton, Vancouver financier and president of the Georgia River Mines Co.,, lost his life as a result of exhaustion and ex- posture either late Saturday night or early Sunday morning.
 Beaton, who was but "A years old, left the mine at 12:45 Sat urday morning and was last heard from when he tele- phoned back to the mine at B. 30 D. m. the same afternoon from a trail cache located one and one-half miles from the mine, according to evidence given at a coroner's inquest held in Stewart Thursday even- ing. The hard travelling en- cCunterad by the unfortunate young man is shown by the fact that he had consumed two, hours and forty-five minutes in covering the short distance between the mine and the cache. He was advised on re- porting from the cache to stay there over night, but replied that he believed he could make 1t through, although the going was hard.
 The body of the young man was found Tuesday forenoon by J. H. Peterson about one and a half miles from the beach camp. The body lay un- der a tree a few feet from the trail. Peterson testified that it took him over two and a half hours to reach the place where the body lay, after leaving the beach camp to break the trail to the mine. As the telephone line was down between the cache and the beach, MT. Beaton's failure to arrive at the beach was not known to those at the mine, while those at the beach, who included his young wife and child, were not aware that he had left the mine. The discovery of the body by MT. Peterson was due to his finding footprints in the snow and following them. After finding the body, Peterson re turned to the beach and rowed to Stewart without advising Mrs. Beaton of his tragic dis covery. The evidence indicated clearly that the deceased had become exhausted by his strug gle through the deep snow and also revealed that he had lost one of his snow shoes, thereby adding to his difficulties. The jury returned a verdict of death from exhaustion and ex- posture.
 The senior MT. Beaton is eX- pected to arrive here Saturday and will probably take the body south.

R. OUTLET
 RECEIVING SERIOUS
 ATTENTION BEATTY

In a special dispatch to the 1 Peace River papers from Mon treal after an interview with President Beatty of the c. P. R., Charles w. Frederick, Peace River publisher, report ed MT. Beatty as having said:
 First and foremost, the pro- vision of a coast outlet when it is built, must be with a view to the greatest possible benefit of the Peace River country itself, and not with regard to the as- pirations of any particular ocean port"
 "The Pacific ports of Vancou- yer and Prince Rupert both have aspirations in this regard for which both are to be com- mended, but it is essentially for the benefit of the Peace River country that the outlet will ul- timately be provided Where the terminus will be it is not possible now to say. I am as firmly of belief in the necessity of a coast outlet for the Peace River country as are the peo- pie of Peace River, but it will be impossible for any amour cement of such an outlet to be made until we have had an op- portunity for checking up the
 information on routes available for this purpose. Our best en- gineers are going into the Peace River country early this summer to determine definite ly what is necessary in that re- gard"
 Mir. Beatty also assured MT. Frederick that a big program IS contemplated in rehabilitat- ing the Northern Alberta Rail ways and the extension of branch lines.
 "We hope to keep always a little ahead of actual require ments," he said, but we cannot undertake to rush too far ahead with lines that might not pay more than a small propor- ion of fixed charges for many years to come.
 Should conditions arise which demand it we hope to De in a position one year from now, with the knowledge we will then have gained from the engineers, to be able to make definite announcement re garding your outlet to the coast"
 MT. Beatty said that so many engineers reports have been made which appear to be at i variance with regard to the possibility of a rail crossing of the Peace at or near Hudson's Hope, that the best engineers will be sent out this summer to determine definitely the actual conditions and also to check up on the desirability of the diff ferent passes
 Asked if it would not be pos sible to encourage the people of the north country by stating that the construction of a coast outlet would be undertaken within a definitely stated time, MT. Beatty replied that it would be impossible, for the reason that if such a promise wero given now the informat- ion to be gathered by the work of the engineers during the summer might set aside all

ALASKA COMMERCE SHOWED HEAL THY
 GROWTH IN 1 929

Exports of Alaska commodi- ties to the United States during 1929 developed substantial in- creases in the value of almost every major commodity with the exception of canned sal mon, herring and reindeer, as compared with 1928, ac- cording to comparative fig ures contained in the annual statement of Collector of Gus toms J. c. Mcbride.
 Gold shipments during the year overtopped those of 1928 by $775,52O; copper exports totaled $8,710,576, an increase of $1,928,912 over the preced- ing year; halibut gained S222,- SIP in value; shipments of fresh and frozen salmon over- topped the 1928 figures by S53,857, while cured or pre- served salmon showed a pleas ing increase of $289,175 in val ue.
 The declines in canned sal mon and herring amounted to $6,980,719 in the case of sal, mon and to $730,637 with re- spect to herring and are attrib- utable to the short runs of both varieties of fish.
 Furs and fur skins shipped during the year possessed a col lective value of $5, ,226, APP, an increase of S578,588. Live ami mals shipped during the year possessed a total value of $156, 695. Included among the live animals were 1,644 sheep, 788 blue foxes and 729 mink.
 Despite a decrease in the to- tai value of merchandise ship ments the grand total of all ex- ports, including gold and sil- yer, was but $2,772,613 lower than for 1928, while there was a satisfactory trade bal ance in favor of Alaska of $37, ,40S,950 for the year. Ship ments of merchandise and gold and silver from the United States and Canada to Alaska amounted to $34,655,723, an increase of $2,018,890 over 1928.
 Following is a complete list of the years shipments and their several values:

White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1930-07-11

For several days a new automobile,
mounted on truck was driven up
and down the streets, with banners
telling about the drive for funds for
the charitable institution. One day
the truck would go by displaying one
of the popular makes of automobiles.
A few days later it would parade by
displaying some other popular make.
Periodically the truck would pull into
the curb where it would park for sew
eral hours while the promoters plead
cd with passers-by to take tickets on
the rattle and thereby help deserving
charitable institution to meet it's bills.
Thousands "Touched"
Thousands of people, touched by the
appeal for help, bought tickets, the
total sale running into the thousands
Of dollars. Contrary to the belief of
the ticket buyers their contributions
did not go 100 per cent to charity.
Instead the charitable institution re-
ceived but &c cents on the dollar, the
promoters getting 81 cents on the
dollar as their net profit, or twice the
amount received by charity, while the
remainder of % cents on each dollar
represented the amount charged
against gross sales by the promoters
as expenses.
In other words, every person who
bought 50 cent ticket for the sake
OF charity, contributed but 10 cents to
charity and 81 cents to those promot-
ing the scheme Whether you give
to charity or make an investment 1t
will pay you to get the facts!
Unfortunately there is general i'm
preston abroad that wildcat promo
lions are confined to oil, mining and
new Inventions The truth is, many
stock selling promotions are operated
under the name of other industries.
False Claims
A certain group Of promoters in.
vestigated offered for sale stock in a
proposed wooden mill. In order to sell
the stock they resorted to the use of
Misrepresentation and false claims
After renting space on the ground
floor of an office building fronting
on busy street they began their cam
paign. Orally and by printed adver-
tisements extravagant claims were
made for the proposed corporation
which were grossly false.
