DILLINGHAM; NOTES
(By special correspondent

(By special correspondent More interest in prospecting was taken after the close of the trap ping season early in the year, than has been shown locally for many years.
 Ed Haley, Nels Shul and Paul August are showing a half ounce or whereabouts of shot gold banned on a tributary of some of the up- per Tikchik lakes.
 R. A. (Butch) Smith, son o1 Windy" Smith of Unimak, reports encouraging prospects from some head-water tributary of the Gnu litna river, which enters Lake Clark on the westerly side.
 Frank Waskey has been working on the head of a branch of the To- giak river and has found what he designates as indications"
 Harry Stevens and Paul Romie have already established a head quarters camp on the Nuyakuk river and will continue work, fol- lowing the known mineralized zone which extends from the King Salmon fork of the Nuyaku k northwesterly through the Kusko- kwim divide. It is to be hoped that the typographical and geological work done the past few seasons in the Nushagak drainage area by the U. S. Geological Survey may be continued.
 The present depressed condi- tion of the fur market and none too bright outlook for the salmon industry only emphasizes the need for continued and intellig e t search for pay placer ground, and likely lode properties.
 Your correspondent is glad to report that a number of men will be leaving for the hills soon, and after the fishing season other parties will equip for real pros pecting.
 J. L. Jean of Good News Bay and Earl Forrest of Quinhaga, arrived recently from the Kuskokwim in the M. S. Husky. They report that the party of three who arrived

PARTIAL ECLIPSE SUN
 PLAINLY VISIBLE SEWARD
 EARLY HOURS MORNING

Contrary to the opinion of learn ed astronomers the passing of the moon between the sun and earth and resultant obscuring of a DOT tion of the suns light rays, was plainly visible locally this forenoon.
 The phenomenon lasted for a considerable length of time and all most everyone had chance to get some transparent colored material, eye shades, smoked or colored glass eS, to gaze at the sun and observe the crescent-like indentation on it's lower left edge.
 As the moons orbit swung that heavenly body into the path of the suns rays streaming to earth, it caused about 15 per cent or more obscurity locally while in other To- calities it ranged all the way from 1C0 per cent in Montreal; 95 per cent in New York, 85 per cent in Detroit, 75 per cent in Minneapolis and Chicago; 35 per cent in Seat tie and like percentages.

DEALING WITH FLOATERS

Complaint is voiced against the presence of "float- ters"-men drifting into Alaska in search of work
 In regard to these seekers of work there be no obcton long they know that the frontier is not essary field for wage eaners but place where one is often compelled shift for himself for the necessities of fe such as food and sheer and harvest what he from nature meet his other needs Such men will read y recognize these opportunities and the incentive to rus te In this many such discover that they have been wasting good years jumping from place to place m search of employment when they might anchor them selves where country has opportunity to expand anu emerge with independence
 Unfortunately too many unettered men believe that society whole is against them, and refuse to offer or accept gesture calculated to draw them into the big scheme of life and give them role in it's evolvement Thus is often lost valuable contributors to progress It is on the frontier that they have the opportunity to blend into the entire scheme It they refuse to accept It, they have no one to blame but themselves.
 But there is another variety of floater He IS the "wse guy who accepts the philosophy that only saps york; There is but remedy for this k and that is to keep them moving and harassed until they the of their way wind up where all such wind up behind the bars.
 This harassng and bounding may appear cruel, yet it often requires something like this to convince man that society is not his toy to be played with and is too sodly organized for him to prevail against it. Once con- vnced of this fact by public opinion, many have the chance beat back and reinstate themselves by going to work at legitimate occupations.
 There is too much parasitical growth, and 1t must be stamped out if Alaska and the nation for that matter

TIGHTER ALIEN
BAN ASKED

Further Tightening of the immi-
grafton laws was recommended to
Congress yesterday in the annual
report of Secretary William N.
Doak, of the Labor Department.
Secretary Doak, in reviewing the
operations of existing immigra-
ton legislation, which has materi-
ally restricted the influx of for.
eigners for several years past,
proposes the bars be raised higher
so as to limit the entry of aliens
to those actually needed in spe-
cific trades in this country.
Secretary Doak said the coun-
try's industries could not absorb
q vast number of aliens, as it did
a few years ago, and that shortly
a stage will be reached, if it has
not arrived, when the facilities
and opportunities of employment
will not exceed our supply of
workers at home"
The Labor Secretary also
recommended that the reading of
the English language be made an
essential requirement for the
naturalization of aliens here.

MERE YOUTHS

A visit to the hunger marchers'

Mrs. Ford, in a statement is

themselves for joining the march.
She said:
"The public resents hunger
marches and radical demonstra-
tiOnS yet they do not understand
that when they refuse to bother
with the problem of homeless
youth they are personally re-

that if it is difficult for older
men to get jobs nowadays it is
