next season, and unloaded at Good news Bay and taken to the creeks, some 12 to Is miles, by caterpillar tractors.
 The properties secured by Olson and Lindgren include claims on Salmon River and tributary creeks. among them Squirrel, Dowray. Platinum and Quartz Creeks.
 The Goodnews Bay camp has been producing placer platinum for several seasons, and is one of the very few platinum fields in Alaska, and is believed to have a long life. The market price of platinum now is only about a third of what is was before the war, but at that is much higher than that of gold, being somewhere near $40 an ounce according to late quota tions. Most of the Goodnews out put of platinum last year was shipped to horage and forwarded through local banks to London. England the chief market for the product.

SLIGHT BLAZE CALLS FIRE DEPARTMENT TO
 LUTHERAN CHURCH

Members of the Juneau Volun- teer Fire Department were called out yesterday afternoon at APO o'clock by a fire in the social rooms of the Resurrection Luther an Church which is thought to have been started by an over heated radiator. There was slight damage caused by the fire which crept up the wall between the studdings that necessitated cut ting through the plaster, to ex- tinguish it.
 Damage estimated at between $100 and $50 was covered by in- surance, the Rev. Erling K Olaf son said "The Fire Boys did a fine piece of work, were extremely careful and caused no damage whatsoever in their successful ef- forts to reach the fire" the Rev. Olafson said.
 Members of the Junior girls choir, who had the hall decorated for a Halloween party which was to take place at o'clock in the afternoon, were vastly disappointed by the fire, which upset their plans though they were glad the damage was slight.

 FORMSDRAMATlC II HEME OF FILL M
Fay Wray, Gene Raymond in An Carver Profess
 sion at Coliseum

A decidedly interesting twist has been given the ever absorbing home or -career theme in the Col umbia picture, Ann Carver's Pro- fession," which opens tonight at the Coliseum Theatre. It is des- tined to create much controversy and it behooves you to get ac- quainted early with what the com motion is all about.
 Directed by Eddie Buzzells, who made the smart Child of Man haitian" the story is a screen or iginal by Robert Riskin showing the inevitable conflict that arises when a woman's professional acti- vities threaten her domestic hap piness. Fay Wray is cast in the role of a talented woman lawyer whose over-zealous attention to her legal affairs causes her husband to leave home and seek forgetful- ness in the arms of another wo- man. Complications tend to vii den the breach between the pair and it takes a tragedy to bridge the gap, with the woman making her choice between Love and Lux ury. Her choice would be the choice of every woman in the same predicament-or would it? See what you think.
 Gene Raymond, recently seen in If I Had a Million" and Zoo in Budapest" is the hapless hus- band and it needs only a glance to see why he falls easy victim of the willowy Claire Dodd, Jes- sic Ralph accounts for a splendid character portrayal. Claude Gil- lingwater, Arthur Jierson and Frank Conroy stand out in the strong supporting cast.
 The interesting program is con- cluded with short subjects and a late news reel.

BIGGEST TOP IN WORLD MAY
 HARNESS WIND

BURLINGTON, N. J., Oct. 31- "The Worlds Biggest Top metal cylinder, tall as church steeple and wide as a two-car garage, spins at fifty miles an hour in a secluded meadow near here.
 It is the first land rotor, an ex- pertinent to see whether the wind can be harnessed.
 The rotor, anchored safely to concrete and steel foundation, dem- onstrates that by whirling it null tiplies the power of the wind by five to six fold. It is an inter- vening step between model rotors which have operated successfully in wind tunnels, and batteries of these ninety-foot giants, which the inventor hopes to set up in windy countries to produce electri- cal power
 The inventor proposed to mount the great towers on railway trucks, to run on trucks thirty feet wide. If they work like the wind tunnel models, the great towers will drive the trucks round and round a circular track, half a mile in dia- meter. Their motion will furnish the energy to operate electrical generators.
 Julius D. Madras invented these rotorS.
 As the winds will not be con- tinuous, he plans to use the rotors only as auxiliary power plants.

Confident TRADE
OUTLOOK REPORTED
Weekly Mercantile Review
Notes Headway in Re-
storing Business.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
NEW YORK, March 18.-Dun &
BradStreet, Inc, said that there was
now more buoyancy TO general can-
mercial activity than has been in evi-
dence in years"
Asserting that further progress was
made this week toward restoring conf
dence "in all branches of business en-
deavor," the Mercantile Review added:
Taking the offensive through en-
phasis on expended credit facilities and
the determination of leaders of industry
to carry On aggreSSively, distinct head
way was made during the first week
following financial crisis and cash
stringency which has had no parallel in
26 years.
1T is now apparent that the era OF
fear has passed definitely and with it
that phase of commercial history which
belittled responsibility and placed q
premium on recklesSness in business
conduct. The resurgence Of the well
tried ideals of caution and conservatism
holds assurance Of the early restoration
OF a more dependable economic bal
ance. The more dispassionate view Of
difficulties to be overcome, which ac-
companies period Of relaxation, Is one
OF the best safeguards for an uninter-
rupted forward movement"
Retail buying improved, the Review
said, and sales in some lines went ahead
OF seasonal. while there was a far bet
ter tone to buying interest in whole
sale merchandise than was the case last
week. and indications are favorable that
the arrival OF buyers next week will be
the heaviest for the Spring season."

SOVIET BOND SALE I
IN j. S. IS PLANNED.
Securities Will Be Put on
Market if Recognition
Is Granted.
BY the Associated Press.

6y the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 18.-The atti-
tude of the new administration in
washington toward the Russian Soviet
government IS being watched closely,
and, rather impatiently, by some Or
ganizations that are hoping to sell
bonds Of the Communist nation to
United States investors.
At least one newly created firm has
taken o11ces in the Wall Street district.
and Is making preparations for Soviet
bond selling campaign If the Roosevelt
regime announces it will recognize the
bolshevists.
Present Ruling.
The bonds, which it is hoped can be
f1oated here, are Of the "five-year- -plan-
in-four" variety, maturing in five, ten
and fifteen years, and carrying an in
terest rate Of 10 per cent in some issues.
The obligations are directly those of
the Soviet government, and both In
terest and principal are payable in
gold.
So far as the sale of Soviet bonds in
the United States Is concerned, the
State Department has ruled that it
has not directly prohibited their f1ota-
tion. In the event that the Roosevelt
government might decide on some form
Of ofacial or semi-off1cial commercial
relations with Moscow, even If fiat rec
ognition is not granted, Soviet repre-
sentatives hope that Secretary Hull may
at least not oppose the proposed bond
offerings.
Several million dollars Of the old
czarist government bonds are out
standing in America, and the Commu-
mist rulers have declined to pay any
part of them. These bonds occasionally
are quoted at extremely low figures in
the curb market, and sales are reported
now and then. The buyers apparently
speculate on the possibility Of the Stain
regime offering some compromise on
these issues II Russia Is granted recog-
milton.
Representatives of the Soviet gov
ernment, here point out that the
| U. s. S. r. has funds to meet short
term credits amounting to som me
$400, ,O0o,00 this year; that the new
nation has never defaulted, and will
not default in any of its obligations
While the country's income has been
greatly depleted recently, owing to the
low prices prevailing for commodities
with which foreign exchange is OBJ
tained abroad, it Is contended that the
nation is still able to pay its debts or
effect extensions where 1t is necessary.
Commissar's Statement.
1t is understood that holders Of the
defaulted czarist bonds have already
written letters to Washington protest.
ing against recognizing the Soviet gov
ernment, and especially against the
sale OF U. S. S. r. bonds in America
As to the actual value Of the Soviet
obligations, an important commissar at
Moscow some time ago said
"Of course our bonds are good. We
have never defaulted and could not af-
ford to default. It would ruin US. And
If the capitalist nations come in and
overthrow communism, everybody knows
that the capitalists always pay the
debts Of the country they take over"
