Many thousands Of visiting Elks
will be in Seattle early in July. They
will not only visit Seattle, but many
of them will tour the state, and prac-
tically every community in the state
will benefit from their presence.
This is the biggest convention Of the
year for the Northwest. In other
words: it's the Northwest's oppor-
tunity.
This is one occasion when we
should remember to be courteous and
helpful" says A. A. Bastian, manager

ONLY ONE LIFE!

The following comes to the desk Of
the Accident Prevention" depart
ment of the North American Automo-
bile Association. 1t is humorous,
yet a timely, commentary on accident
prevention.
"a cat has nine lives and can ar
ford to take q chance-And frog
croaks every day and lives right on
but we have only one life in this
old world, and when it is gone, it is
long gone-therefore for tho sake Of
ourselves, our families and our fellow
workers, we should make every effort
to prevent accidents"
Every motor car driver can drive a
little more carefully than he usually
Goes, by just thinking a little more

 SINCE MARKET CRASH

WASHINGTON, D. O., Dec. IA, R)-There are 23,496 fewer mill lionaires in the United States now than there were before the stock market crash, according to the h. ternal Revenue Bureaus statistics on incomes for 1880, which paint the telling picture Of the effect of depression.
 Defining the millionaire as a person with not less than S1,OOO ,O0O worth of property, from which in come is $50,000 or more, statistics show there were 43,134 millionaires in 1928 when the boom was at it's height.
 The stock market decline of 1929 left 38,650 millionaires, but in 1880, the number shrunk to 19,688. Sim ilarly the number of persons en- toying $1,00o,000 income per year,

CAMPS ARE ALRIGHT

Mining camps of the Willow Creek district, concerning which some anxiety was felt because of the heavy snow-slides reported from that locality, apparently were not in the path of the moving snow. according to Pilot Joe Crosson, chief of operations of the Alaskan Airways, who made a flight to the Interior, with a detour over the mining belt to make general sur- vey of conditions there, says the Anchorage Times.

SIGNALS GALL PLANE
 TO ND SICK MAN

Signal fires which were observed recently at the point, across Knik Arm from Anchorage, were an- swered by Pilot s. E. Robbins, of the Alaskan Airways. He found a mes Senger there from Susitna station, requesting aid for Jim Austin, and he proceeded to that point as fast as the plane could take him Aus tin, who was found to be very i'll, was loaded aboard the plane at Su- sitna station and brought to the Anchorage hospital.
 When the signal fires were ob- served, the street lights of Anchor age were turned off and on as a means of letting it be known that the signals had been seen. It was not possible to send a boat across the arm because of ice conditions and it was too dark for a plane to make the flight.

AIRPLANE MAIL

December IS will see the irlaugu- ration of mail service by airplane from Anchorage to the Bristol Bay district. The service will be per- formed by the Alaskan Airways who will dispatch a plane on this route carrying the mail to Kanatak, Egg egik, Naknek, Koggung, Nushagak, Kanakanak and Dillingham;. On the first trip there will also be con- siderable number of Christmas packages for people of that dis trict, says the Anchorage Times.

 Another interesting fact dis closed by the Revenue Bureaus figures were that two married wo- men and six men with incomes of more than $5,Ooo,oo0 per year, paid more taxes than 2.613,165 persons who earned less than $5,0OO per year. The names of these eight per- sons were not made known, how ever.
 It was also shown that New York State. in 1929 had PFC persons re- porting incomes of $1,OO0,OOO or more which was a larger number than all other States combined.

of the large amount of government
land in the State. The amount of
money allotted each state is based
on its population, its area and its
miles of post road, the Automobile
Association points out.
Prior to last year, Montana re-
ceived $1,500,000 in federal aid al
lotments. Last year Congress in
creased the appropriation and
Montana's share was increased to
$2,500,0OO or $1,O0O,O0O more than
can be matched by income from
the five-cent gasoline taxes. In
order to match this money and
prevent it's being forfeited, the
Legislature decided on the high
way program which is submitted
to the people at the May 5 cleo
ton, that of issuing $6,000,00O in
highway construction warrants
which, in four years, will provide
sufficient additional money to prac-
tically complete the system.

The Automobile Association ex-
plains that under the federal aid
law passed in 1923 by Congress-
seven percent of the public high
way mileage is designated for fed
eral aid of each state. In 1925
Montana had about $1,000 miles
of public roads and on that basis,
eliminating federal forest roads,
the state was entitled to about s.
900 miles of federal aid road.
By act of the Legislature the
State Highway Commission was
instructed to place all county seats
on improved state maintained high
ways. and since the act was passed
the Commission has secured fed
eral approval for addition of these
extra routes to the approved mil
cage.
Percentage of federal aid money
received by Montana has beer
fixed at a ratio of Sc to "A because
