His district includ ed the entire watershed of the Sti kline watershed and as far down the Lizard as navigable.

 During the year they travelled by deg team, boat and canoe. MT. Cas- tie saw every staked claim in the district. He says he saw no new placer ground to recommend to his company, but declares without res evration that the Cassiar holds much promising lode that has never been adequately prospected, as we'll as great stretches of virgin lode ground. The great need of the coun- try. he says, is company of old time prospectors.

HOSPITAL DAY CELEBRATION
 BIG SUCCESS

In spite of un1ayorable weather conditions, the silver tea given Sun day afternoon in observation of Hos pital Day was an outstanding suc- cess. A large number of visitors called during the receiving hours and the receipts including later do- nations amounted to $95.50. The program consisted of piano numbers by Mrs. G. R. Hatton, two vocal numbers by Mrs. Johnson, a group of duets by Miss Valborg Bruns- void and Jim Nolan, and an im- promptu program of old songs by a chorus of the visitors.
 The hospital was made attractive by profusion of yellow daisies and the daintily appointed tea tables. The sun-room where four of the six tables had been placed had newly tinted pale green walls and ivony woodwork while the new drapes bought with the money do- mated by the Ladies' Bridge Club added cheerful glow of color. Of in- terest to many of the visitors was the Elks room where the walls have been tinted a delicate orchid by the local Bills Club. The Bills plan further improvements in the way of curtains and pictures.

LEAD VOTERS IN
 ALASKA

Scanning the list of voters of Alaska interests one for a few min utes. The First Division furnishes 46 per cent of the names, and the First and Second closely balances the Third and Fourth, according to reports compiled by Major George Albrecht, Fairbanks attorney, says the News-Miner.
 The most common family name is Johnson, with 225 voters, and Anderson (both Ion" and "en") is a poor second with but 172 voters, while the name most com- mon in the U. S., that of Smith, totals but 135, counting all the variants, Schmidt 6, and Schmitt, Smitt, Smyth and Smythe one each.
 There are several family names of only one member. but only one letter of the alphabet carries single name, Xavier. The ubiquitous Jones is only mildly so in Alaska, there being but 57 of them. The letter o which one expects to car ry but few names has IT. strangely enough, divided among twelve fam fly names. z is usually counted as a seldom" letter, but exceeds U, 39, by ten, while I is one of the low letters with but GA names. B. M and S are the big letters, being about equal. and together account ing for thirty per cent of the names. Several names have but three letters while a whole grist have thirteen.

Text of Address

The business depression is the
dominant subject before the country
and the world today. It's blight
stretches from all quarters of the
globe to every business place and
every cottage door in our land. I
propose to discuss it and the policies
of the government in respect to it.
Depressions are not new expert
ences, though none has hitherto
been so widespread. We have passed
through no less than fifteen major
depressions in the last century. We
have learned something as the re-
suit of each of these experiences.
From this one we shall gain stiffen-
ing and economic discipline. a
greater knowledge upon which We
must build a better safeguarded
system. We have come out of each
previous depression into period Of
prosperity greater than ever before.
We shall do so this time.
AS we look beyond the horizons
of our own troubles and consider
the events in other lands. we know
that the main causes of the extreme
violence and the long continuance
of this depression came not from
within but from outside the United
States. Had our wild speculation;
our stock promotion with It's infinite
losses and hardship to innocent
people; our loose and extravaganza
business methods: and our unprece-
dented drought, been our only dis
asters we would have recovered
months ago.
A large part of the forces which
have swept our shores from abroad
are the malign inheritances in Eu-
rope OF the great warts huge
taxes, its mounting armament, its
political and social instability, it's
disruption Of economic life by the
new boundaries. Without the war
We would have no such depression.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1931-06-16

we have witnessed armed revolu-
lions within the past two years in
a score Of nations, not to mention
disturbed political life in many
others. Political instability has af-
fected tllree-fourths of the popula-
ton of the world.
I do not at all minimize the eco
nomic interdependence of the world,
but despite this the potential and
redeeming strength of the United
States in the face of this situation is
that We are economically more self
contained than any other great ma
ton. This degree Of independence
gives asursance that with the pass
ing Of the temporary diSlocations
and shocks we can and will make a
large measure Of recovery irrespec-
tive Of the rest Of the world. We did
so with even worse foreign condi-
tons in 1921.
w can roughly indicate this high
degree of f-containment. Our
average annual production Of NOV
able goods before the depression was
about fifty billion dollars. We ex-
ported yearly about five billions, or
10 per cent. The world disruption
has temporarily reduced our exports
to about three and one-half bill
lions.
In other words, the shrinkage of
foreign trade by one and one-half
billions amounts to only Q or 3 per
cent of our total productivity. Yet
as a result of all the adverse forces
our production has been reduced by,
roughly, ten or twelve billions.
