GANNET AND PARTY T0 REMAIN IN SEWARD
 FOR SEVERAL DAYS

Having completed large portion
 of the work mapped out for them
 in the Shelikof Straits and Alas
 ka Peninsula members of the Alas
 kan Survey Expedition with Lieut.. Robt H. Harrel, in charge, are in
 town aboard the plane tender USS. Gannet, commanded by L. L. Rowe. The Gannet will spend several ! days in Seward while a boiler is overhauled and additional pro- visions are received from the Ad- miral Evans, now en route north from Seattle.
 During the time when the Gan net sailed out of Seward, early in May and it's return, a large field has been surveyed from the air. Among the multiple marvellous pie lures are those of the volcanic chain on the Alaska Peninsula. In this work s. M. Farrar has dupli- cated his genius for accomplishing intricate aerial photographic work. Among the striking views is that of Shishaldin volcano, taken from above the cloud blanket which al- most continually encompasses the volcano, necessitating expert aerial maneuvering of the monster am phibian planes, which are shown in some of the views while hover ing almost over the smoke-spout- ing forge of Vulcan.
 The navy amphibians were pilot ! ed by Lieut.. J. P. w. Vest and J. c. Lafferty, assisted by Mechanics A. c. Shafer, A. w. Miller and Paul Zarinelli.
 After completing boiler overhaul ing and other business the Gannet and survey party will return to Shelikof Straits to complete the shoreline survey from Southeastern Alaska to that region.

u. S. TO DEFEND IT'S MO
NOPOLY ON LETTER
CARRYING

Alert to plans for avoiding
new high postage rates, the
Government will insist on its
right to the monopoly OF carry
ing letters.
The increase in Hostage
rates from to 8 cents, effec-
tive July 6; has caused public
utility companies and other Or
CARNATIONS using the mails to
distribute their monthly bills
to consider other means. In
some cities use of men unem-
ployed has been suggested.
The increased postage and
the tax on bank checks, with
which many bills are paid, are
said by business men to involve
a contribution of II certs on
each bill paid by mail with a
check. At that rate every 1OG,-
900 bills would mean a contri-
button of $1,000 to the Gov
eminent. Hiring private car
riers at modest wages would
save money for both the con-.
panies and their customers,
they say.
The Post Office Department.
however, points out the postal
laws do not permit anyone 10
enter into competition with the
postal service in carrying let
ters. There is no objection to
a company using it's own EN-
ployees for deliveries, but two
or more companies will not be
allowed to use the same en-
ployee, nor hire a messenger
or other delivery service to de-
liver their bills.

THE BUS A RECOGNIZED
MEANS OF TRANSPOR.
TATION

Ill-considered criticism OF
buses will not solve our trans
portatiOn problem. 1t is gen
orally admitted today that the
bus is filling a definite need in
the transportation field. It Of
fers fast, inexpensive and fire :
quent transport, and is able to
reach into towns and territor-
les where other types of trans
portation have not been reaG
lily ayaila b lie. Tremendous
progress has been made in i'm
proving facilities, from the
standpoint of both comfort aud
safety, by the large systems.
Sleeping buses, comparable to
pullman trains, are one of the
latest steps in this direction.
The responsible bus lines. in
conjunction with the railroads.
steamships and airplaEes, are
one of the four major factors
in modern transportation.
Such bus companies are as
interested as anyone else in
Kidding the country of wildcat
lines which are menace to
other users of the public high
ways and to the travelling pub
lie. T h e only satisfactory
means of doing this is through
Federal and State regulation
which puts buses on a par with
the railroads. 1t is in their
interest to favor every move
ment which will promote bet
ter standards of responsibility
in bus service and eliminate
systems which are unwilling or
unable to provide service of the
highest possible character.

ACCIDENTS IN REA S E.
REASON FOR COUR-
TESY WEEK
TESY WEEK

The number of motor vehicle
accidents reported to his office
show a disturbing increase, ac-
cording to E. Austin Baugh-
man, Commissioner of Motor
Vehicles.
Unless the citizens of Mary
land are more careful on the
highways during the Fourth OF
July holidays, the number of
injuries and fatalities nay be-
come appalling" the commits
sioner said.
"The traffic situation is get
ting to be such as to demand
immediate attention, not only
in this State, but the whole
country" Mr.. Baughmau con
tinued. eve are trying t.
bring about a change in The at
titude of motorists. Our aim
is to reason with them instead
OF coercing them. That is why
we are conducting Courtesy
Week from July 8 to 8.
"Of course, those who won't
listen to reason will have to
take the consequences.
IF you call a man a murder
er, he'll burn up with resent
ment, and, no doubt, knock YOU
down; but if you complain to
him that he violates the traffic
laws, he'll probably laugh as if
it were a great joke TO have
done SO.
Yet few realize how easy it
is for the reckless driver to
snuff out life. There is no diff
ference between general law
lessness and lawlessness on the
highways"
Debasement of silver has
created an abstract problem OF
concrete significance.
Almost half of the world vi
tally needs articles of which
we have a surplus. We have
wheat to burn when people are
starving; a surfeit OF cotton
when people lack clothes. This
tragic enigma is largely due 10
the fact that the collapse OF
silver has robbed Millions OF
people of their purchasing
power.
A practical plan to restore
silver's value would be a move
toward a return to world sta
bilization and prosperity.

US. Telephone Calls Exceed
Letters BY Eleven Billion

That the habits Of the sun consti-
tute one Of the great limitations of
world wide telephony is a start
ling statement. The explanation is
that since the sun shines ON only one
half Of the world at time, most Of
the people on one side of the globe
are asleep at the time those on the
other half want to telephone.
In making experimental calls be-
tween New York and Australia when
that serviceN was established, Arthur
w. Page, vice-president Of the Amer
lean Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany recalled that while several peo-
pie talked from this end of the cir
cult, that each conversation was an
swered by one gentleman In Australia.
On being asked If there were anyone
else In that country who could talk
on the telephone, the Australian re-
piled that while 1t was a convenient
time Of the afternoon in New York,
It was half-past five o'clock in the
morning of the next day in Australia
and that there were not many people
who liked to get up at that time.
Up to the time of the invention Of
the telegraph, communication was,
generally speaking, tied to transporta-
ton, Mr.. Page said recently in an adj
dress on Social Aspects Of Communi-
cation Development" at the Lowell
institute in Boston.
A message had to be carried by a
man and 1t could go no faster than
he could go. It is true, 1t was pointed
put, that semaphores, beacons, smoke
signals, and carrier pigeons were used,
but the very limited amount to which
they were used proves the severe linn
Its Of their effectiveness.
In spite Of them, 1t Is still true to
say, that from the beginning of his
tory to the invention Of the steam
boat and locomotive, man and horse
and sail provided the maximum speed
Of communication. In one sense, these
were the ancestors Of modern post
office and telephone and telegraph
systems.
Modern communication, according
10 Mr.. Page, is chiefly useful so that
large populations may know them
selves by constant intercourse and
thereby improve their economic status
and their ability to govern themselves
The underlying purpose, he said, of
the two systems, 10 exactly the op-
posite. One gave inside news ex-
elusively to the few. The other is to

KEEP SUCH THINGS OUT
OF REACH

"Put a distinguishing mark
of some sort on all acids, pois-
ons, antiseptics and other DAN
gerous drugs or compounds
that you keep in the house, and
put them away out of reach Of
the children" is the advice CT
DR.. Robert L. Swain, Deputy
Food and Drug Commissioner
of the State Department of
Health, to all housekeepers.
"This precaution" he contin-
ued, twill safeguard grown-ups
as well as children, but it Is
particularly nee ded when
young children are around. AS
a result of their unfailing cur
iosity and their willingness to
try anything, we are constant
ly hearing of children who
have endangered their lives by
picking up or tasting this or
that drug or medicine or house-
hold article that looked attrac-
tive to them.
Household lye is one of the
articles that has a peculiar fas-
cination for children. 1t looks
sugary and they think it is
sugar. The burns and infla-
nation of the mouth and
throat and digestive tract that
result from swallowing even a
small quantity of I've are agon-
izingly painful and so serious
that they are likely to end ia
tally.
Every few housekeepers rsa-
lie the hazards they are sub
jecting their families to, when
they leave can of I've, a bottle
of concentrated household an
monia, or similar household
supplies, on the pantry shelf
or in any other place that is
easy of access. So many child
rem, and older people, too, have
met with serious injuries
through. the accidental hand
ling of household supplies OF
this sort, that twenty-fo,l1
states, Maryland among them
have enacted laws which re-
quire all packages or contain
ers of such supplies, to be
clearly labeled in large letters
as POISON.
"But no matter how well
such containers are labeled,
these things are a source of
very great danger unless they
are kept in safe place ans
where the children can not get
at them"
