SIMILARITY BETWEEN
 ROASTING COFFEE AND COOKING FOODS
"A Little at a Time" Is the Secret for Securing the
 Finest Flavor

Foods generally taste better when cooked in small quantities. For then the cook can mix her ingredi- ents properly, also control the heat.
 When coffee is roasted in small quantities, the same thing is true. But when coffee is roasted in bulk as most coffees are-exact con- trol is lost. Under-roasting and over-roasting very easily occur. This method being so unsatisfac- tory, caused Hills Bros. to look for some improvement-some way to roast their rare blend to uniform perfection. They eXperimented for years, and eventually invented and patented Controlled Roasting.
 As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow :. little at a time |. so the fine, uniform flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by Controlled Roasting-the patented process that roasts evenly, continuously |. !. ;. Little ct time. Marvellous un- varying flavor results in every pound. For no berry is underdone nor overdone.
 Hills Bros. Coffee is always fresh. It is packed in vacuum cans. Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is removed and kept out of these cans. Ordinary, "air-tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. Order Hills Bros. Coffee today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trade mark on the can.

More Pay for Shorter Sessions

Senator's and congressman are said to feel strongly that their sal aries ought to be raised from the present $10,OOO to $15,000.

Big Decline in Copper
 Production in 1880

The value of the copper pro- duced from Alaska mines in 1880 is estimated to have been $4,100.000. This marks a de- crease in value of more than $3,000,000 from the cores bonding value in 1929. Nearly S1,750,000 of this decrease may be attributed directly to he lower average price of cop per in 1880 than in 1929. The low price not only had it's di- rect effect in the value of the output, but it also acted to re- !ard operations so that the quantity produced also fell off by an amount estimated as in excess of 100000 pounds. The average selling price of copper durlng the year as con- puted by the Bureau of Mines was 12.4 cents, as against 17.6 cents in 1929.
 In 1880, as in former years, practically all copper came from two mines near Kenne- colt, in the copper region, and from one mine in the Prince William Sound region. These mines alone, according to the published reports of the Geo. logical Survey, have welded more than $200,000,000 in the twenty years that they have been actively developed.

Freight from Seattle landed It the Hyder dock at the same price as is charged for cargo transportation from Seattle to Aetchikan was promised Fly Ter shippers in an announce ment made this week by rep esentatives of the Moves Boat Company, coastwise shippers md holders of the Ketchikan dyder mail contract.
 According to the information given out, the Moves proposal s made possible by an agree nent between that company md the Alaska Steamship Go
 In consequence, locally con. jigned freight must be for warded from Seattle on vessel of the latter company and in care of the Moves Boat Go. at Xetchikan to secure the advan- ages of the proposed new rate Q Hyder. The proposed serv- ce is scheduled to become eff !ectiVe on February 1.
 The Moves announcement has created considerable inter est among local shippers, not alone because of the reduced ates offered but more partic- llarly because of the recent failure of the Northland Trans oortation Go. to maintain it. ,ormer schedule of direct sail

RENEHAN'S FATE SHOWN BY PLANE FRAGMENTS

Wreckage of the long miss ing seaplane "Skagway" found last Sunday on the shore of one of the islands of the Percy Group, a few miles south of Annette Island appears to have definitely decided the fate of Pilot Robin Renehan and his companions, Frank Hatcher and Sam Clerf, who vanished mysteriously during the even ing of October 2S while en- route to the Atlin country to search for the lost Canadian airman, Capt. E. J. A. Burke, and his companions, Bob Martin and Emil Kading.
 The wreckage of the Rena. han plane, a piece of the cock pit 4 feet long, covered with blue fabric and with one tie rod attached, was found by Clarence Meyers and Bob Mil Ter, who were sent to assist in the search by the Ketchikan Chronicle, following the find. ing last week of the two spare wheels known to have beer carried by Renehan.
 The wreckage has been pos itively identified as part of the ill-fated Skagway by Pilot An scel Eckman and Frank Wad man, his mechanic. In tn opinion of both airman, tn, fragment found on Percy Is lands indicated conclusively that Renehan crashed into tho sea within a few minutes flight distance from the spo where the wreckage wa. found.
 Searchers are now engaged in securing the coast line of tho Percy and nearby islands il the hope of finding the bodie; of the unfortunate flyers which may have been thrown up on the beach by the tides.

SILVER AID STRESSED
 BY SENATOR BORAH

Senator William E. Borah, in letter read at a recent meeting of the Northwest Min. ing Association took a more positive stand than ever be- fore in stating that something must be done for silver.
 Tt is gratifying he said, ito note the growing interest everywhere in what we choose to call a silver problem, al- though I prefer to regard it as 9 phase of the worlds great economic problem.
 During the last few months expressions of interest in this phase of our economic situ- ation have gone out from the most conservative and best ln- formed sources, and all to the effect that silver should be re- stored to its rightful place in our economic and financial af- fairs.
 My own feeling is that we must before long stop droning about a world chaos because of over-production and turn our attention to the true prob lem, that is world in chaos because the purchasing power of millions has been destroyed.
 It is under the circumstal ' necessary to draw on the public treasury to tax ourselves to build public buildings and roads. This will, to some ex- tent, dull the keen edge of de- precision. But to do this and propose to do nothing more is abdicating responsibility and leadership and leaving the people to their misery. Unless we can adept some program which will bring back the pur- chasing power of some eight hundred million people
  throughout the world, we shall not very soon, if ever, be free from the depression which we are now experiencing.
 Al this has not come about without cause and without deep reason. The policies which have for the last few years cut in half the pur- chasing power of 400,000,000 Chinamen and affected the purchasing power of a great many other peoples is one of the contributing causes to our present deplorable situation. I feel that it is coming to be more realized that this is a fact.
 In treating the silver question as a part of the great economi- cal problem ot the world, every effort ought to be made to restore this metal to it's right place. 1 think under bold leadership it can be done. But the leadership ought to be taken by the United States"

INTERESTING SESSION
 CHAMBER COMMERCE

The monthly meeting of the Hyder Chamber of Commerce Tuesday proved to be the most interesting session held i'll a long time. President E. D. Had don presided and the bulk of the more stable membership was present.
 Included among the more important matters considered was a telegram from Delegate Dan Sutherland indie ating a marked probability that unem- ployment relief work on the Salmon river improvement pro- ject may be instituted shortly by the government through the Bureau of Public Roads.
 The message was in reply to the Chambers recent plea for unemployment relief and read as follows:
 Mcdonald, chief of the Bureau of Public Roads, is wiring bureaus representatives in Juneau asking if they are in position to undertake the work of flood control at Salm- on river. There is some ques- tion as to whether this work is within the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Public Roads but possibly emergency conditions may permit them to do so. No other way known as army en- gineers have no funds that may be legally used for this pur- pose. Will wire again"
 A Chamber telegram to Terri torialAuditor Cash Cole urging cooperation in local unemploy- ment relief work elicited a reply to the effect territorial funds for river control are ex- hausted, but he would bring the matter to the attention of Governor Parks on his return from the Outside and would be glad to cooperate in urging the local request.
 The Chamber then decided to wire M. D. Williams, Bur eau of Public Roads chief in Alaska, urging his cooperation.
 Literature advertising a new type of fire pump which can be attached to an auto and operated by the engine brought up the perennial question of adequate fire protection and resulted in a decision to write l for further information regard ing a free trial offer made by i the producers.
 The Chamber also decided to institute a monthly Supper" meeting, the first of which will be held at the Ideal Cafe We'd nesday February 4, starting at 6:30 P. M. a
 It was also resolved to in- stitute a new method of de- 1 termining how the Chamber may enlarge it's usefulness to the community by installing a Suggestion box" at Chamber fof Commerce Hall, wherein any citizen may place a writ en suggestion having as it's ob- ject the betterment of local
 conditions. Such suggestions will be given careful consider, ation and acted on whenevel possible by Chamber.
