CONDITIONS IN
 ALASKA BETTER
 THAN ON COAST
Maj. Elliott Finds Alaska in Better Shape than
 Any Other Section

Business conditions in Alaska to- day are better than anywhere in the country, declared Maj. Nal colm Elliott, President of the Alas ka Road Commission, in brief talk before the Chamber of Con- merce. He recently returned from a trip in which he covered large part of the nation, visiting cities in both the east and western areas.
 The east is In worse shape than the west, and the Pacific Coast from Seattle to Los Angeles is worse than Alaska, he said. While the effects of the depression are severe, 1t Is generally felt that the bottom of the curve has been reached and 1t will soon take an upturn, he added.
 Meets Official Sympathy
 "As usual in Washington, found a sympathetic attitu de toward Alaska, and while the Post Office Department may not be doing everything the Territory would like, the Federal Government is still giving a great deal of assistance 10 it." he declared. Tt was in fear and some trembling that I went to Washington last year. I thought possibly under the pressure of oth- CT matters involving large expendi- lures, such minor items as roads and trails in Alaska might suffer" :" Fortunately he found his fears were unwarranted and the Bureau of Budget approved the usual ap- propriation for $800,000.
 The aviation situation through out the country, MT Elliott said, is bad We must not expect too much service immediately but allow the industry time to get on it's feet and make some money. Every air operating company of any import ance in the country encountered a deficit last year. This, also, applied to interior Alaska, where the in- come was materially below the normal operating expenses. And to this loss was added the large sum expended in the Eielson relief ex- petitions last winter.
 Not International Port
 Juneau by it's geographical loca- ton is shut off from the interna- tional airline routes and cannot hope to be one of the ports on such a route when it shall be es- tablished, Maj. Elliott pointed out. In the not too distant future, he added, an airline connecting North America with Asia will be estab- lished across interior Alaska. Such route could not include coastal Alaska since distance and flying conditions both operate against it.
 The natural aerial connection be- tween Southeast Alaska and the States is at Seattle. This route should be encouraged. But it will not be a part of the inter -conti- mental route any more than South east Alaska can hope to be includ- ed on the main line of the Inter national or Pacific Yukon High way.
 Progress Is Made
 Satisfactory progress has been made on that project. All of it's intermediate objectives have been reached ahead of schedule and the future outlook for ultimate achieve ment of the entire aim is bright.
 Southeast Alaska will be linked to the main line through spurs, he added. He warned that the entire project must move slowly on &C., count of it's magnitude and pecul- jar problems involved, and dis counted any Encouragement on that score.

FAVORS REORGANIZING

BY the Associated Press.

ATLANTA, Ga, October 31.-Reor-

lied for Republican propaganda.

Washington Fashions
BY Wilma La Vile.

AS you have heard many
times, prints are an outstand-
ing fashion for immediate wear.
They break the monotony OF
winter wardrobeS and we see
them in large numbers worn
under dark coats. There are
many fashions in prints, how
ever, and one of the ways to
make them different is to com
bine prints with plain colored
fabric.
We selected a frock to sketch
today that illustrates this point
beautifully. The print has a
black background with splashes
of red and yellow in the flow
ers. It makes, a frock with
short sleeves. Over this there's
a coat effect of black silk
crepe. This clever arrange
ment looks like skirt and
jacket. This suit would look
very well under a coat because
there is nothing about it that
will crush. It's a type that will
be becoming to almost any
woman and it has decided in
dividuality. You may achieve
the much talked of dramatic
effect by removing the coat
part and wearing the printed
frock. This ensemble is in a
medium price.
Miss LaViIie will gladly an
