 Yesterday; a giant mechanical Bird scared into Fairbanks. Today it swept on breathlessly toward the East, roaring impatiently in it's gruelling race with time.
 There was short pause of four 1ours, and in that interval hundred miracles of other days were per- formed. The Alaska Airways pressed its resources into action. Eight men worked as one as they minutely ex- amined every vital part of the world- encircling plane, carefully checking each moving part, leaving the ma- chine as nearly mechanically perfect as was humanly possible.
 While these trained. licensed me- chanics toiled on the, plane, the worlds greatest news gathering agency, the Associated Press, through it's Fairbanks member, the News Miner, gleaned from the l,lips of the exhausted flyers the story ofo their spectacular course through the air, that millions of readers in New York, London, Paris, or the far-fiung ham, lets of the globe, would be thrilled with the tale of daring as they drank their morning coffee.s Here., indeed, was another miracle2ot. modern time annihilators. performing calmly, eff ciently, silently.

THE VANISHING PRoSPECTOR.
tStruller's $ Weekly.)

The prospector is rapidly vanishing from the hills and valleys of Alaska, and with it the greater part of the future prosperity of the, Territory. Notwithstanding Alfred Brooks, late geologist and mineralogist,. declared there was more gold in Alaska than had yet been taken out, prospecting is nearly a lost art. While it is true that. many men from. time to time seek the elusive metals, there is no interest taken in comparison with that of thirty. vaars. or even twenty years ago.,
 During the, asst fifteen, years. no strike worthy ot note has. been an nounced. This is not because the rare metals are not present, because they are, in as great profusion as. in former years; 5ct because the young men: will not endure the hardships entailed, and the old men,x familiar with the work, have either left the Territory. or are too feeble to keep the pace.
 Several years ago the prospector could be met on every hand; enthusi-

MATT NIEMINEN TELLS
 EASTERNERS ABOUT ALASKA
(New York ,World-Telegram.l

(New York. .World-Telegram.l l. Matt Nieminen is spending his va. cation in New @York-zthe. first one he has had in four years- ana he wishes he were back in Alaska where a fel- low can. enjoy himself and not be bothered by. lot of noise and people, In fact. he's a little bit homesick for his flying job as. the, manager. for Alaska Airways, Inc.

 Nieminen wears snowshoes and ,reindeer skin clothes when he's. on the job at home, and his airplane has skis, but in New York he's just a pleasant little chap with a good coat of tan that might have been accumulated at. Coney Island or. one of the locai fly ing fields.
 "If we happen to be in Siberia on Sunday" he said with a grin, land forget to go to church, all we have to do is go out and fly from Big Dio- mede Island, which is in Russia, to Little Diomede,. which belongs to. the United States. Then it will be Sat surday again, because we, cross the In- ternational date line, in a. 1O-mile flight and there will be. plenty of time to prepare for obseryings the Sab- bath"
 Nieminen has. made two flights from Fairbanks to Point Barrow, the northernmost, tip. of Alaska; and he has carried twenty three sick. or in iured persons by plane from isolated settlements to. points. where, they. coud get proper .medica attention and care. He has AowspNspsctors, trap pers, gold dust and furs, mining ma chinery and even sledge dogs in his ship. !.

the way to swifter, smoother motor cars
or more efficient methods OF producing
them.
Engineers Exploits.
Tracing the course OF events OF the
last 10 months, one comes to the con-
clusion that the major share OF laurels
Belongs to the engineers. At time when
the sales and production departments
have been struggling with problems
incident to adjusting distribution to
reduced demand, the engineers have
introduced the merits Of free-wheeling,
syncro mesh and other transmission
improvements, as well as offering
lessened vibration in the car by en-
CINE mountings and by adjustable con-
troll Of shock absorberS. The engineers
have carried on.
Further changes In transmission con-
troll are to come. II one may believe
the S. A. E. members. Recent i'm
provements are the forerunners of
others, they assert. The gear shift as
the motoriSt has known 1t Is doomed,
they say. The operation OF an auto
mobile is to become more and more a
swift, silent function of automatic
precision.
Production for the automobile industry
for the month of october shows signs
of tapering off, which may bring a new
low for the year. There may be indi-
vidual instances against the trend, but
most of the manufacturers have no
nlans for increased schedules until next
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-10-13

month, when models for the New York
show will receive attention.
Buick has resumed activity at Flint
after its annual recess for inventory.
Willys-O Overland will undertake a pro-
gram of manufacturing in excess of
normal demands during october and
November to furnish as much en-
ployment as possible during these Or
dinarily slack months.
Sales Improving.
Graham-Paige has been experiencing
the benefit Of an upturn in sales, while
Dodge Brothers officially denies any
plans to close two weeks for inventory,
rs had been reported in Detroit. Bust
ness for the Dodge Co. has continued
at a satisfactory level and demands
from dealers would make 1t impossible
to close, according to B. E. Hutchinson,
vice president of the Chrysler Corpora
tion.-
Ford production no doubt will be
lower for october than 1t was In
September. The same may be true for
Chevrolet. Each company Is placing
orders for Sizeable steel requirements
for the first of the year. September
activity at the Ford. plant is believed
to have been sufficient to clear the way
for any manufacturing adjustments
necessary for substantial changes in
the model A.
The latest estimate of total sales for
1881 is 1875. 900, made by r. l.. Polk g.
Co. of Detroit. This is decided
revision of similar estimates made earlier
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-10-13

production next year. There are in.
creased complaints of lack OF surface
moisture retarding Winter wheat seed
ing in parts of Oklahoma, Kansas and
Nebraska. Fully 100000 acres are
said to have poor Fall start. Com
merclal estimates place the German
wheat crop at 100000 bushels less
than the last official estimate, and the
Argentine wheat acreage shows a de-
crease Of about 10 per cent, while there
appears to be 80, 900, G06-bushel deficit
IN the Australian crop coming to mar
ket next month.
Even If there should be no material
advance in prices at the present time,
a steady market would create more
confidence and more desire to make
purchases. If values remain around
present levels, there should be heavy
consumptive buying Of wheat. That,
however, goes for corn, too, and a heavy
use OF corn initiates against the new
practice OF feeding wheat to live stock
The corn futures market has advanced
from the new low levels reached earlier
In the week, but primary receipts have
been running more than a million
bushels larger than year ago.

ion that the market definitely has
turned.
Buying Orders Appear.
An outstanding feature Is that buy
ing orders have followed the advance
in prices and readily absorbed profit
taking and short sales. There is every
indication that underlying conditions
are strengthening the world over and
that wheat prices are naturally react
of confidence. Fundamental bullish in
fiuences long have been ignored.
While the advance in the securities
market and smaller receipts have much
to do in strengthening cash wheat and
futures, optimistS must not discount the
influence of reports that Russia may be
on the verge of export collapse.
These stories Of Soviet trouble in
collecting wheat and of a smaller Rus
sian crop than expected have been cur
rent for many weeks and usually refuted
by subsequent developments. Russia
has played such tremendous part in
the world market that every wheat ex-
porting country is cheered by the
faintest indication of the recession In
her grain exports.
There is an expression in the trade
that Russia has habit of bluffing i'm
portations in order to stimulate the
market. Many are of the personal
opinion that Russia still has plenty of
wheat for export besides that now
afloat or stored unsold
In the same connection 1t Is well to
remember that recent heavy world
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1931-10-13

shipments apparently have exceeded
current market requirements and
stocks have accumulated in British and
Northwestern European ports. Stocks
in British ports now are more than
twice as large as a year ago. CONT
mental markets are only moderately
active and price changes are influenced
mainly by the local situation in the
various countries.
Because of the poor financial position,
which keeps European demand on a
hand-to-mouth basis, 1t is we'll to give
prices to the power of speculation which
has boosted stocks in the wake Of
President Hoover's plan to bolster
American finances.
Undoubtedly 1t will require liberal
purchase in the immediate future to
maintain this higher level in the grain
markets. There is, however, consider
able comfort in the fact that farmers
are not pressing sales and elevator
houses are content with the present
carrying charge and willing to hold I'M
til the international wheat situation
improves. Receipts at the principal
Winter wheat markets showed a de-
crease of more than 300 cars from the
previous week.

in the year, when 1t was assumed sales
would not drop below the 100000
mark.
The sharp decline in sales is we'll
revealed, however, by figures showing
that for the first eight months of 1891
sales reached only 1,527,l96, against
2,11l,3 1854 for this period in 1880 and
2,964,746 in 1929.
Estimate Of Sales.
Previous to 1929, the eight months
from January to August accounted for
about rs per cent of the sales for the
year. On this basis sales would ap-
proximate 100000 for 1881. However,
in 1880 the first eight months accounted
for 80 per cent Of the total sales for
the year StatisticianS observe a close
parallel in the sales curves for 1880 and
1881. 1t is reasonable to expect, there
fore, that the first eight months this
year also absorbed 80 per cent of the
years total. On this basis, the ,375, 900
figure would be correct.
