ALASKA INTERESTS AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL By WAS.

through Boring Sea to the head ot Bristol Bay, leaving there by plane for Seward.
 Despite it's lack of forestation, the Alaska peninsulas is remarkably scenic. The high volcanic moup- tains with their snow and lava and green coats of low growth present pictures never to be forgotten. In Bristol Bay the fishing industry iu it's concentrated extent is amazing. Twenty-eight canneries in this section with their smoke stacks re- minded me very much of Gary, Indiana, or sort of an Arctic Pitts burg; and the hundreds of gillnet boats, each with two men aboard and no motive power but sails and occasionally the brown of some stalwart fisherman, looked to me vehy much like my conception of what the Sea of Galilee must have been two thousand years ago.
 Most of my contacts in that region were with eannery men and the personnel of the Bureau If Fisheries. Without exception, found them to have high mutual respect for each other-men of character and standing in the business world dealing on an un- derstanding basis with intelligent government officials.
 "On the trip back to the states, when the steamer stopped at Seward, Valdez, CCrdova Juneau, and Ket- chikan, it seemed almost like an old home week to greet the many friends I had the privilege of making last year. For me, at least, Alaska is still the finest va cation land under our flag, and the home of some of our finest citizens"

MUSEUM SCIENTISTS GET
 SPECIMENS AT KACHEMAK

The little group of investigators, representing the museum of the University of Pennsylvania, headed by Miss Frederick de Laguna, took passage on the s. s. Watson at it's September 3rd sailing, says the Seldovia Herald. Leaving Seattle they will head straight for Phila- delphia.
 The party, made up of Miss de Laguna, her mother, Mrs. Grace de Laguna, a brother Wallace. and assistant, confined all operations to Kaehemak bay, Yukon island and at Cottonwood. They did a lot of digging, as shown by 21 packing boxes filled with specimens testify ing to an aboriginal life of some remote period.
 There was no special effort at classification, but objects of varied sorts and interest were packed and shipped with the thought of later expert identification, always with an eye for linking early Alaska civilization to some definite period and race of world history.
 Miss de Laguna holds the con- vietion that time spent on the Kachemak was well spent, and that history will profit by the under taking.
 Edwin Newman, assistant to the young archeologist, Miss Frederick de Laguna, intends crossing the ocean upon his return to the east. He is going to Germany, where he will continue university work along scientific lines.

SEA LIONS HUNTED BY
 B. c. FISHERIES BOATS

VICTORIA, B. C.-The fisheries vessel Givenchy has been out on a hunt for sea lions, which injure the salmon industry along the B. c. coast. This season they have despatched 1857 of these marine lions. On the rCokeries at the Vir- gin Rocks they shot 1,2S6 and at Pearl Rocks II. On the Pearl RocHs there were more lions than usual, and they were much wilder than those found on the Virgin rookeries. Twice the landing party were charg- ed by the lions, but they escaped without injury. Fishermen and canners report that the damage from sea lions in River Inlet last year was heaviest in history.

WILL BUILD
 SCHOOL GYMNASIUM

In fixing the municipal tax levy for the current year, the Petersburg City Council included a levy of 21h mills on all taxable property in the town to provide funds for a school gymnasium The valuation of the property within the corporate limits for taxation purposes is approxi- mately $1,500,0O0 and the tax levy should therefore provide $3,750 in addition to other funds on hand, amounting to approximately $1,o00.
 The building will be constructed in the lot adjoining the school prop erty donated by the Pacific Ameri- can Fisheries Corp. While the money available will not complete Iy build and equip the gymnasium, 1t is expected that construction work will begin at once.

Officials of the Post Office De- partment give assurance that the new contracts that have been awarded in several instances to Airplane Companies are not air plane contracts, but provide for carrying the mail as under the system in practice for many years past. Recently tf Delegate filed a petition for the establishment of a mail route between Nenana and Lake Minchumina, on the assump- tion that the recently awarded con- tract would not secure the desired service. But the additional service has been refused after an inyestiga- ticn by the Department. In a letter from W. Irving Glover, Second As sistant Postmaster General, he says:
 "The report indicates that the petitioners reside on the existing winter route between Nenana and Flat. over which weekly service Is provided Under the contract the carrier is required, in addition to carrying the mail tC the pos of- fees.

operation. Unfortunately, Hoover the President has
not acted as Hoover the candidate spoke.
Much Of his veto message IL devoted TO figures
purporting to show that government operation Of
Muscle Shoals would be foredoomed to failure In
deed, BY Of arbitrary figures, he estimates that
the annual loss would be something like $2,0OO0O0
But he apparently loses sight of these alleged losses
in suggesting that the states of Alabama and Ten
nessee take over Muscle Shoals
On this matter of losses it always has seemed
strange to that opponents of public operation never
seem to remember the many cases of public opera
ton which successful and efficient in bringing
down rates for the consumers.
And we can not understand why the President
and power interests as sincere believers in the In
evitable failure Of government operation at Muscle
Shoals, are determined to prevent the experiment
If they are certain it would fall wls snss iys the
failure and stand IS Devastating warning
and example9 Why not, indeed, since the govern
ment already owns the property and can not dispose
Of 1t readily?
The President drags In politics. Congress-" he
says, has been thwarted for ten years in finding
solution, by rivalry Of private interests and by the
determination of certain groups to commit the fed
era government to government ownership and opera
ton Of power"
Isn't he somewhat confused in his facts? Far
from congress being thwarted by certain groups"
it not true that congress has settled this matter
twice, and that the thwarting has been done by the
President-f1rst by the Coolidge veto and now by
the Hoover veto2
The Hoover veto is deadly effective in killing this
project for the moment But that is not the end of it
Without assuming the role of political prophets
we can remember only that the Coolidge veto made
Muscle Shoals a national issue and wonder whether
this Hoover veto will not make it even more do,Ai
nant political issue in the next election We hope so

The Muscle Shoals Veto

President Hoover has killed the Muscle Shoals
compromise, passed by congress. This will delay
development Of the rich Tennessee valley. And it
will delay also the nations opportunity to obtain
price yardstick with which to measure fees which
the public pays to private power interests for cleo
tricity.
The chief reason given by Hoover for his veto is
his opposition to government ownership and opera
ton Hs objection is beside the point The federal
government. 1t happens. already owns Muscle Shoals
And the federal government already is operating
Muscle shoals-for the benent Of q private power
company.
That presumably was one reason Hoover during
the campaign made Muscle Shoals an exception TO
his general opposition 10 government ownership and
