MIR. HEINTZLEMAN'S NEWS NOT
 DISCOURAGING.

MT Henzlemans report on the status ol ehe two pulp and newsprint factories in Southeast A. aska-whch appeared in The Empire Monoay--ls not dscouraging although it would be idle to deny that it a disappointment to Alaskans gen. eraIy His conclusion was briefly, that MT. George T. Cameron and his associates remain fixed in ohelr determination to develop what is officially known as the Thane Pulp Timber Unit of Tongass National Forest and construct their manufacturing plant at or near JuneauS and that the zelerbach interests are going ahead with their plans for similar de- velopment in the vicinity of Ketchkan.
 The hope had been fervent that both of these proiects would be initiated this year; that crews would be put in the field to begin the construction of tunnels dams power transmission lines and power plants which go into the complete hydro-electrlc development that will furnish power for the manu- facturies Lack of finances, due to current depres- sion the unfavorable market prevailing for pulp and newsprn factors too significant to be ignored, and have resulted in delaying the inception of both projects.
 There is. however, much that is encouraging about MT Heintzlemans statement of conditions. The Fed eraI Power Commission has granted the necessary licenses for power development The United States Forest Service has written a contract for the sale of timber from which materials will be avail able And both of these entirely satisfactory to the interests committed to the enterprise There is not single obstacle in the way of consummatins the deals. Every hitch has been eliminated in the negotiations which recently ended in San Francisco.
 The Cameron Chandler group, and the zeller- bachs only await favorable turn in current econ- omie, business and financial conditions. 1nterna- tional and national authorities generally agreed that the bottom of the trough of depression has been reached. Between the low point and defin- ite upurn there is always period of convalescence No has yet been bold enough to predict its dura- tion but it is evident that the beginning of the period of recuperaton cannot be indefinitely de- layed Those interested in the local project are not going to wait for prosperity to return to normal but will proceed with their construction programs the upward trend has been definitely established.

RUSSIA CALLS ON AMERICANS AGAIN.

In the prosecution of its five-year industrial de- veopment program Russia has made largely of Americans and American machinery and equipment during the past two years Mining engineers, manu- facturers, financial advisers and other experts have been called into service and paid highly for their time and talents. Russian transportation has seem ed to lag behind the rest of its industrial struc- ture. The Soviets could and did purchase .Ameri- can-made locomotives and rolling stock. It could and did hire the service of rail transportation perts But still the roads have not functoned with anything approaching the efficiency which charac- terizes the average American line.
 Deciding that the trouble in it's human rather than its mechanical element, the Russian Govern ,ent is turning to American raroaders to train its workers One hundred and fifty locomotive en- gineers yardmasters, switchmen and signalmen have been employed to go to Russia for a one-year period and undertake to train Russian trainmen in American methods The Americans will be placed

all the key positions on one division of the great system that stretches from Moscow to Vladivostok This will be a kind of perfect division" Under the Americans will be installed complete Russian crew in a sort of training school. As soon as one Russian crew completes its course, it will be "e- placed by another and will itself take charge of another division In this manner it is the belief of the. Soviet authorities that the Russians will absorb the western technique of 2ailroadng.
 Perhaps so but Russia should not expect to bring this about too rapidly It took American lines and their employees many decades to develop the present efficient transportation systems which span this continent In that development, more than mechanization is involved. The esprit de corps which is common to the workers of American ail- roads is not the least among the factors for off ciency and under Russian temperament, particular y under the present Russian theory of government it may be impossible to duplicate it. Without it. Russia is doomed to fall short of it's aim to build out Of it's own rail systems, counterpart of the American system.

GOOD SPORTSMEN AND WELCOME
 GUESTS.

The Elks bowling team representing Ketchikan in the just concluded tournament with the local iGlks were good sportsmen and much better bowlers chan the comparative indicate They play ing strange alleys which were entirely different from their home and the breaks were against them They lost gracefully and without under taking to offer any alibi. We remember not so long ago when squad of men representing the Juneau Bills returned from Ketchkan after being beaten. They, too took the result the fortune of war.
 It is not from the result of such meetings that the highest pleasure and greatest benefits de- rived These contacts valuable not only to the Elks lodges directly concerned, and they do bring the fellows in Elkdom closer together. They of equal service to the two communities. They work for a fellowship between the two towns-Juneau and Ketchikan-that is reflected in business financial well as social and fraternal relations, And Ket- chikan could have sent better ambassadors of good fellowship than these Bills who guests oi the town for the past four days.

Nlfl MODERN GIRL < < s

British Woman Plays Steel Muscled, Flat-Breast-y lf
 ed Women

NEW YORK, Jan. 25.-fhe mod ern girl was flayed in TO uncertain terms by Victoria Bocth Demarest, granddaughter of Commander Wil- liam Booth, founder of the Salva- tion Army.
 "Woman's liberty has gone to her head,' said Mrs. Demarest, speak ing on the /ubject, Woman and Love-" at the Madison Avenue Methodist Episcopal Church. Men are growing more cynical in their attitude toward women. And it is largely the fault of the women themselves.
 "The tendency is most modern universities and colleges is away from the best standards of woman hood.
 Strenuous Athletes
 Girls are unsexing themselves by their participation in strenu- ous sports. I see nothing admir- able in these new steel -muscled, flat-breasted women, these chan nel-swim m ng, marathon-running Amazons.
 Women don't admire men who are sissies. Neither do men admire masculine women"
 Mrs. Demarest was particularly bitter in her attack on the cigar ctte- smoking flapper. 1 The famous English evangelist also criticized most severely pres ent styles of dress and cosmetics.

WEAKNESS IN
SECURITIES is
GRAIN FACTOR
Wheat Opens Lower With
Pressure Evident in
All Options.
By HAROLD E. RANVILLE
United Press Stan Correspondent

CHICAGO, April 22.-Continued
weakness in securities Is beginning
to have an effect on grains and
wheat opened lower on the Board
of Trade today, although Liverpool
was stronger than expected and
there was no precipitation Of i'm
portance in the spring wheat belt.
Scattered selling carried wheat on
fractionally, some Of which was
profit taking on the sharp rally late
Tuesday.
Liverpool was frner on the allay-
ing Of anxiety over the farm board
action. Corn reacted from its sharp
gain late Tuesday and was of with
wheat, meeting little support early.
Oats were unevenly steady at the
start.
Wheat Opens Lower
At the opening wheat was 4 to
Y cent lower with May unchanged.
Corn was unchanged to g cent low
er and oats were 4 cent lower to
Is cent higher. Provisions were
rather active and about steady.
Liverpool started slowly, but was
higher on an improvement due to
the denial by the farm board that
agency contemplated dumping, prices
showing a Is to z cent gain at
mid-afternoon. Buenos Aires was
Y cent higher at the opening.
1t is understood that the grain
futures administration at Chicago
will make an investigation into the
source of the rumor concerning the
farm board which had a distressing
effect on world markets. Sons
damage was reported in the south
west owing to the cold weather, and
as temperatures still are low, fur
ther damage may be expected.
Corn Receipts Off
Corn receipts fell off sharply on
Tuesday owing TO the unfavorable
weather and may be lighter for
several days due to rains in the
sections that we're shipping old
crop corn to terminals. Sentiment
remains bearish largely because Of
the light cash demand, but the in
fluence of wheat is in the other
direction, supporting corn futures.
Liquidation of oats appears on
any display of weakness in the
other grains. July and September
sold at new lows on the crop Tues
day.

United Press Financial Editor

NEW YORK, April "a drop
in steel production from 81 to -
per cent Of capacity, announced to-
day by the Iron Age, brought fur
ther pressure On United States
Steel common stock today, and the
issue made new low for the bear
market at 1864, of a point.
The whole market reacted. Then
selling dried up and the list rail-
lied to small net gains. The ad-
vance was not sustained and the
list was again receding around noon
in dull turnover.
There were a few weak spots and
q few strong ones. Otherwise move
ments were narrow and meaning
less. Western Union was in the list
of weak spots, for a time breaking
to 1854, of 2A points. Later it
snapped back to 11e.
Auburn Auto Firm
Paramount ublix made a new
low at $685., of IL. Radio failed
to regain all of an early loss as did
Stone & Webster and United
Corporation.
New York Central broke below
100 for the first time in seven years
in the railroad division. Other rails
held better than Central.
Auburn Automobile was a firm
spot. Early in the session it
reached 202 and around noon it
was holding at 1876, up az points
net.
Money Mart Easy
The money market was distinctly
easier following announcement of
further gold shipments to New York
from Paris. Call money was off,
cially lending at liz per cent, but
concessions were made in the out
side market from this figure. Sew
eral dealers reduced bill rates by
Il Of per cent.
The street had expected decline
in steel operations in the weekly
reviews, but it did not look for as
poor showing as that recorded. The
Iron Age stated: 1.-THE recession
this month strengthens the impress
sion that the spring rise was largely
seasonal in character, the April
downturn conforming with the
trend commonly experienced at this
time Of year"
