FLAGS ALL NATIONS
 BUT BRITAIN UNFURlED
 EUCHAR|ST|C CONGRESS

DUBLIN, June g, In the midst of the colorful opening of the 31st international Eucharistic Congress, flags of all nations, except Great Britain, were unfurled to the breeze and representatives of King George were not in attendance as they had not been invited.
 Gov. General James McNeill, re- preSentative of King George in the Irish Free State, was one of the persons on the excluded list be- cause he was said by Irish leaders to represent an "alien interest"
 Later in the day the Governor General and Ramon DeValera were both present at another religious meeting and dinner, almost equal ly religious in importance, but the two statesmen did not speak to each other.

VET ARMY LEADERS OPPOSE AMENDMENT
 PAY HALF OF b0NUS

WASHINGTON, D. C., June B, Leaders of the bonus army, en- camped at the Nations capitol, do not favor a proposed amendment to the Wagner bill which would provide for the immediate pay ment of one-half the sum of the remainder of the bonus which will be due them in 1945. The leaders assert that they want all of the bonus immediately or none of it at all.
 During the while legislation is pending civic leaders are doing everything possible to induce the army to dissolve and start home. They have even arranged for spe- cial reduced fares with the rail- roads to take the weary veterans away to their homes.
 So far the army has not made any attempt to breakup but in- stead, more veterans are said to be hitting the road" enroute here. It is believed that the army will breakup soon after Congress ad- journs.

LOST PLACER FOUND BY INDIAN 0F NORTH
 ON ATL|N CREEK

SPOKANE, Wash, June B, - From Atlin, northern British Col umbia, comes another of those periodical reports of the rediscov- cry of Host mines" of old "Sour- doughs" and desert rats"
 The Host" mine was discovered in 1874 by Victoria man and five companions, who cleaned up $6,000 of placer gold in two weeks. Then their food supply ran low, a scur- wy attacked them, five of the min CTS perished, and the tragedy inn parted the name to "Scurvy creek
 That for the prologue.
 Now the curtain lifts for the drama of our hour. A half-breed Indian, so the story goes, while dressing moose, caught the gilt ter of sunshine on yellow metal and there one has proof as con- vincing as holy writ. The rich mine was lost long ago, or report ed to have been lost; Scurvy creek is there, and some Indians have found color in it's sands and gravel

WORLD NATIONS HAVE
 SAY REGARDING HERE'S
 ARMS REDUCTION PLAN

GENEVA, June g, The drama tic and surprise proposal of Pres ident Hoover for reducing the arms of the entire world was laid before the Geneva disarmament barley on Wednesday after it had been ap- proved by the various United States military officials and members of the American delegation attending the conference.
 According to the plan the world nations would reduce armaments by one-third. Under this plan the United States naval strength would be reduced by 350,0OO tons, heavy guns would be limited and bomb ing planes be forbidden. It also proposed that aerial bard ments and chemical warfare be prohibited.
 The principle nations at the con- ference all were in almost complete accord with the proposal, with the exception of France. France want ed some security organization to guarantee her security in case she laid down arms.
 Italy accepted the American pro- vision without reservation as did Russia. Japan said that she want ed chance to discuss the matter. Great Britain was not in exact ac- cord with the plan but seemingly willing to cooperate in the culmi- nation of such a proposal.
 The plan will save world tax pay CTS billions of dollars yearly, if it is adopted, besides minimizing the danger of war.

HOOvER's REDUCTION
 PROPOSAL |s ACCORDED
 OPTIMISTIC RECEPTION

WASHINGTON, D. C., June 23, R-The administration hopes that strong and concrete results will come from President Hoover's proposal for reduction of world armaments, despite the Frenc h coldnesS of reception.
 The Hoover administration IS particularly cheered by the direct reports of the American repre- sentatives at Geneva which are far more optimistic in construction on the reaction of European powers, than was reflected by the first news.
 Last reports said that France, of ficially, is surprisingly friendly to the measure.
 Britain now believes the nations will get together successfully.

ALASKA ADvENTURER
 NOW FINDING HIGH
 EXCITEMENT BOLIVIA

Meet Earl RosSman, the first man to introduce the talkies into Bol- ivia.
 Rossman will be remembered first as accompanying the Sandy Smith snow motor caravan which didn't carry a van very far toward Point Barrow, later author of an Eskimo yarn about himself and a little chocolate drop as hero and heroine; again as companion to Matt Nieminen, pilot of the Alas kan Airways when he made his memorable flight over Mckinley.
 The story comes thru Robert J. Reeve, veteran pilot with the Pan American Airways, free lance skim ming about Central America, and in Seward last week in expectancy of hooking up with the eagles of the snoWs.
 In his WanderingS in search of adventure and lucre, Ross a II found himself in Bolivia with few thousand feet of motion pie ture film and unable to impress the spiggoty mind with it's value for display purposes. Then the Yan- kee genius cropped out.
 RoSSman rented his own theatre and put in the "talkies." This was something of an innovation to the descendants of the Mayos and h. cas- They had heard of such things among the strange Yankees, but as yet were from Missouri.
 Rossman had no mike" or ap- paratus for synchronizing conver- sation with scenic action. He hired a Panamaian girl with a voice ranging from falsetto to basso pro- fundO.
 Turn the crank, McGinnis!"
 AS the pictures unreeled the voice of the 'talkie'' emanating from a point of vantage where the story could be read on the film, alternately cussed burros, sang Spanish love notes, scolded little spiggots, cooed and cajoled, all to the marvel of the mouth-gaped audience.
 "Asegura, los Americ canos es grandissimo"
 "Abajo los Americana! Abajo el Presidente! Alto el revolucion!"
 Thus Rossman's movie was greet ed when the screen fell over and disclosed his "telkycito" pulling on a corn-husk cigarette and telling the Bolivians things they had nev- CT heard of before.
 Rossman was last heard of en- gagged in an argument respecting how many girls a man could make love to below the equator and get away with it.

EDITORIAL
SEWARD'S HOLE CARD"

A sage coined the phrase: Tt is darkest before dawn"
 It might be said that the pre- sent is the darkest hour Seward has experienced, yet the darkness is nothing to be afraid of, for it is mere shadow compared to the sombre clounds which hover over the remainder of the nation. The immediate depression may be liken- ed to a transitory period between the dark hour just before dawn and the bursting forth of a brilliant horizon blazing with promises.
 This promise is the Nuka Bay mining field. Considered in it's geological structure, vein place ment and the light of such remark able discoveries as that made in the Babcock and Downey mine, the continuation of rich shoots in the Alaska Hills and other prospects, together with the discovery of rich float in regions wherein a pick has never been sunk, Nuka Bay is des- tined to take it's place among the treasure spots of Alaska.
 To the layman rock formation means nothing; he can only see quartz containing virgin gold, all of which he can understand. To the miner the structural nature of the country rock, the manner in which the veins are laid down and the visibility evidence of gold spells quality, quantity and permanency. Nuka Bay is made up of a series of contracts and Assures. Its pri- mary acidic rocks are the diorites and granites It is where these rocks have intruded the stratified structure such as slates that the greater enrichment has taken place. In addition, the country has been subjected to a series of dike re- placements. These dikes also being acidic, have exerted their influence upon the adjoining rocks and pro- duced their share of ore place ments.
 Such a region cannot escape be- coming important contributors to the gold wealth of the nation. It is only a matter of preliminary capital with which to conduct ex- ploration to make of Nuka Bay permanent, rich gold camp.
 While others are speculating on what may come out of the grab bag respecting our future progress, all attention should be concentrated upon hastening the day when the Nuka Bay payrolls will be floating into Seward No other agency could bring a more permanent and en- during prosperity. Time being the essence of the hour, any aid which may be given to the energetic pros pector would be money we'll inves- ted.
 Other regions have recognized this fact respecting their own en- virons and instead of waiting for others to initiate the rejuvenation of mining are doing it themselves.
 When it comes to developing and operating mines, the occasions where men of small means have been able to accomplish this are the exception. All that Seward can hope to do is to assist in the initial development, and bring it's com mercial powers to bear in attracting the man with means to carry out the second phase of the work.
 Nuka Bay is Stewards hole card, as Willow Creek is the salvation of Anchorage. It took 15 years for Anchorage to recognize that it's stability rested upon it's mines.

COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 23.-U.P)-
While college football has been TAX
ing it on the chin as far as attend
ance and gate receipts are con-
cerned, organized professional foot
ball has strengthened itself during
the 1882 season, Joseph F. Carr,
president of the national football
league and the father" of pro
football, told the United Press to-
day.
The eight clubs of the National
league still have three weeks be-
fore their season closes, but Carr
believes attendance figures will
equal or better those of 1881, the
banner year for professional foot
ball
According to Carr, interest in
professional football has taken a
decided upward trend during the
present season while most colleges
and universities were battling in
difference on the part of fans.
Professional football is for those
who understand the game Carr
said. college football was built
with a background of tradition and
pageantry. The professional game
hasn't much tradition or pageant
ry yet, but it provides the hardest
and most interesting competition
for those who love the sport pure
ly for its own merits"
