Magic of "GOld!"

NN~NN~--o~--~0-'F Seattle again hears the thrilling words-"a ton lof gold"-whch launched the Alaskan gold rush
 That expression vibrated across the country a1ter
 the arrival of the steamer Portland in Seattle July IF, 1897, with the first shipment Of gold from the Klondike.
 Overnight, Seattles commercial aspect changed Men, ships supplies were quickly mobilized for a hurried invasion of the Alaskan treasure trove Now, thirty-six years later, the tendrils of com merce and industry born then have developed into deep-rooted businesses and fortunes Excitement gold subsided in the intervening wears into a steady flow of diversified commerce, with fishing ranking the Territorys major industry.
 But the magic of "Cioldl" has again come to life Gold prices have advanced more than 50 per cent in recent months result of abandonment of the gold standard and Government purchases of the metal.
 ! More than a ton of gold, exceeding $750,00O in value is on hand at the United States assay office in Seattle waiting for technicalities to be disposed of so that payment be made to the producers l Most of this gold from Alaska to which Seattle is the gateway. And is coming With the higher prices available, gold discoveries are stimulated New fields barred to prospectors in the old days by difficulties of transportation are now accessible to the airpane 1 Submarginal producers under the old standard of $2O67 per ounce reopening under the incentive of higher prices
 AS result, Governor Troy of Alaska predicts a marked increase of Alaskan business.
 Things are definitely better than they were year ago." the Governor commented in Seattle "The fisheries situation is looking up, too and that and mining are our main industries"
 Revival of Alaskan business is quickly reflected in Seattle which is, in effect the commercial metropolis of the Northern Territory.
 "Grub-staking' of prospectors calls for supplies and materials here
 Alaskan purchasing power circulates in Seattle trade channels Hotels, stores banks, transportation companes-all branches of business-beneft

 m Arctic Lanes

COPENHAGEN, Nov. 21.-Amer- ica has the inside track" in plans for establishing a transatlantic airline connecting the United States and Europe by the north ern route, because of missionary work by Col. Charles A. Lindbergh.
 This point was brought out by the administration of Greenland following reports in the London press that the British had provis- ional plans for a weekly Service between Liverpool and Montreal.
 Americans Get Option
 The Danish Colonial authorities feel themselves morally bound to Pan-American Airways, the Amer ican organization, which has been given an option by Greenland for bases there.
 ''The Imperial Airways (the great British organization" the governor said, s'has not even dis cussed with us the possibilities of using the Greeland link in a transatlantic air route and, hay ing promised the American com pany represented by Col. Lind bergh to consider granting a con- cession to it we cannot permit Imperial Airways making use of Greenland.
 'tConsequently, We cannot help the British before having conclud- ed negotiations with the Ameri- cans.
 "A regular air route over Green land cannot be carried through before careful Investigations and technical organization. So far the Americans are the only ones who have systematically investi- gated conditions"

 Nov 1917 Second revolution and es- tablishment of present form of government Repudation of foreign debts contracted by Kerensky regime.
