CH|CACOkN COUPLE, CARVING COMFORTABLE
 HOME RENAL DISTRICT

Caught in the spell of the coun- try might describe the decision of MT. and Mrs. Michael Glynn, two years in Alaska out of Chicago, and who have settled on Kenai River.
 MT. Glynn, still below his sos, has staked sizable area of placer near the end of the Chugach National Forest road, constructed from Cooper's Landing, to a point about seven miles down the river and destined to eventually connect with Seldovia and the Cook Inlet coun- try.
 MT. Glynn is a cabinet maker, and will employ his skill in erect ing a rustic log home, clear land for gardening and incidentally con- tinue his labors of the past sum- mer, of washing gold from the bars and alluvial which borders the river.
 With the aid of a crude Long Tom, MT. Glynn has been gradually accommodating a sizable poke of dust, sufficient to meet his needs. Like the true frontiersman, he pro- poses living off the soil and forest. And like the true frontiersman, he is always ready to set the table for the wayfarer and give him a hear ty welcome.
 MT. Glynn is now engaged in construction of box amalgamat- ing apparatus for the capture of the fine gold which is characteris- tic of the river bars. The amalga- mator, known as the Hungarian rifle, carrying an Iundercurrent, while precipitating the dust, will occupy position near the end of his pole rifles.
 Since the gold begins at grass roots, and bedrock is an unknown depth, it si planned to use an auto matic gate or splasher to ground Sluce down several feet and shovel in the concentrate, after drying the thus created bedrock of packed boulderS. There are few places where colors do not reward the pan.
 Some day capital will recognize the possibilities of this prolific gold-bearing region and it will be- come one of the big producers of Alaska.

 POWERFUL! ADDRESS
 BANKERS ASSOCIATION

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct, 4, In a powerful address last night, before the American Bankers Association in convention here, Ogden Mills, Secretary of the Treasury, tore Franklin D. Roosevelt's utterances, on his recent nationwide speaking tour, to pieces, backing up his statements with what he termed were the facts in the case, winding up his long speech by exemplifying President Herbert Hoover, whose stewardship of the United States during the depression, will be en- scribed upon the pages of history.
 Loud and prolonged bursts of ap- plause greeted his various state ments, and at the conclusion, the hall rocked with cheers for Hoover.
 MT. Mills assailed the Democratic nominees tour as a "Polyanna campaign; htat all of his speech es were honeyed phrases; nothing to offend anyone. He also described Franklin Roosevelt as a "philoso- pher of despair, alleging MT. Roosevelt had asserted in one of his numerous speeches, that Amer ica had reached the end of pro- greSS.

kENA| LAKE VESSEL
 RAN 0N ROCKS WHEN
 SKIPPER SLEPT AT POST

"Twas one dark night on Lac
 St. Pere,
 And de wood scow Julie Plant
 bus up
 One arpent from de shore"
 Thus sang the poet Drummond of French Canadian tragedy.
 But transpose the scene to Ke- mai Lake, at about the hour of 2 p. m. Sunday evening last, and substitute Harold Sogn's outboard motorboat for the Julie"
 The "crimp" having collected a piratical crew, got them aboard and slowed in the foc'sle, Captain Sogn took the wheel, ordered haw- sers cast off at Cooper's Landing and pointed the nose of his rakish craft for Porcupine Island.
 Better catch a few hours sleep" said the captain to Chief Navi- gating Officer Bob Hall, it looks like we might run into a bit of nas- ty weather after we clear Porcu- pine Narrows"
 Among the "old salts slowed in the foc'sle were Roger Paul, Clarke Andersen, Warren Neil and Walter Corliss.
 Stopping at the galley to vince dle a cookie from "Stews and Burns" the navigator entered his stateroom, laid his sextant on the table and turned in with the re- mainder of the crew.
 The engine purring like a kitten, and the boat carrying a "bone in it's mouth" the lighthouses and visible landmarks began to drop astern. Whether it was the drone ot the engine, or the influence of the gentle undulations of the boat "deponent sayeth not" but Bo'sn's Mate, Clarke Andresen carries on the story as follows:
 By the time Mountain Climber cabin was left astern the night settled down like Erebus when the power plant is out of commission.
 From the foc'sle came the sten- torlan snoring of a crew who had spent the night before doing the opera and night clubs of Cooper's Landing.
 Whether it was while pondering a deftly intricate problem of whether to tunnel or open-cut a fat man to pick up the lead to his appendix, or the drone of the en- zine, matters are rather obscure.
 Captain Sogn fell asleep at the wheel.
 He was brought out of his dreams along with the crew, when his ship piled up on the rocky shore of the long point below the 18-mile land ing.
 The impact sent the skipper from his cabin up front on top of the sleeping crew, which came for ward on their food caches, backs, head and foot foremost like a dish of scrambled eggs.
 Sound the s O S!" shouted the skipper, trying to extricate Bob Halls hind leg from the precincts of his midrift.
 Women and children first!" shouted Hall, "I didn't do it."
 Life preservers!" yelled Roger Paul.
 Sound the bilge we'll" ordered Walter Corliss, T think she's sink ing by the stern"
 Look out! the mountains com- ing back at us astarboard!" warn ed Warren Neil.
 Splice the main brace! Life boat crews stand by!" arose above the din of the crafts groaning while the rocks gnaWed at her vit- alS It was Clarke Andresen's voice from somewhere up front where he had skated on his face.
 A nasty survey disclosed that Skipper Sogn had failed to see the mountain as it came across his bows and not permitting him time to roll the wheel hard to starboard and allow it to pass.

James G. Yaden told the Pet

night that the 100000 relief
measure failed to pass in the
House Appropriations Committee
because the committee could not
secure from relief agencies the
specific information it required.
The various agencies did not
respond sufficiently to the COM
mittee's request for statements
as to their overhead expenses and
operating costs and needs, Mr..
Yaden declared. Some of the
agencies returned answers which,
in effect, had "none-of-your.
business" spirit, Yaden added.
Declaring that Washington has
not made any real strides toward
reducing unemployment but has
merely checked it a bit, Col E. G.
Bliss, chairman Of the work crea-
ton committee of the District

planned the block-aid plan to the
