GEORGE BALL HOLDS HOUSE
 WARMING AT STIKINE RANCH

The crew and passengers on the down trip of the Hazel B. No. 2 last week, brought word of a most enjoyable party Thursday night when they were invited to a house. warming at the George Ball ranch. for many years known as the Frank Callbreath raRch, below Telegraph Creek.
 Mir. Ball during the past winter constructed a two-story log house to be used as a hunting lodge for the big game hunters which he out fits and guides in the Cassiar. The logs were hauled over the ice on the Stikine from the old townsite of Glenora where they were taken from the main cabins built there in the gold rush days of 1898. The logs were in prime condition and have been made into an attractive and comfortable lodge. The living room is 26 by 20 feet with a To- foot ceiling. The kitchen is 12 by 121a. The second story is taken up by bedrooms and a bathroom with hot and cold running water. An eight-foot porch extends around three sides of the building.
 The Hazel B No. 2 left Tele- graph Creek at 6:30 Thursday eve ming and the guests were met at the landing by two hay wagons in which the three-mile trip was made to the main ranch buildings.
 A dance was in progress shortly after their arrival, the music being furnished by Alec Dugan Dennis, a Bear Lake Indian who plays the accordion well, and Jack "Black Jack" Williams on guitar. Sup per was served at midnight. At a quarter of four the next morning Captain Hill Harrington reluctantly announced that he and the Hazel B passengers would have to leave, so the dance was brought to a close, Telegraph Creek guests returning home by boat with Johnnie Simp- son and Roy Callbreath, while those living at down river points were taken aboard the Burlington boat,
 The guests present were MT. and Mrs. L. James, Mrs. J. c. Simpson. Bud Simpson, Glen Hope, J. V. Boys, George Robbins, Jack Will Hams, Allan Richie, Don McDevitt, Mrs. T. W. Hallas, Mrs. w. Simp- son, R. H. Jeffries, George M. Bid well, Terry Mays, William Taylor Capt. w. H. Burlington, Dewey Churchill and Alec Dugan Dennis Those present at the dance from the ranch were MT. and Mrs. George Ball, Miss Gertrude Smith, Fred Higgins, John Kennedy and Alec McPhee.

HoFsTAD LOOKS OVER SMALL
 DIESEL PLANT AT WRANGELL

Thor Hofstad, who with Martin Jensen started an electric light business at Seldovia during the past year, arrived in Wrangell this week to look over the Diesel plant originally installed at Wrangeu by o. c. Palmer, with view to buy ing it. The plant has lain idle for the past few years.
 The deal, if made, will be through the local bank, trustee for the Wrangell Lumber & Power Com pany. The plant consists of a 75 ID. Fairbanks Morse Deisel engine and a 75 kilowatt generator. The equipment is in very good shape but is too small for requirements at Wrangell.
 MT. Hofstad will leave for Seat tie in day or two to pick up some other needed equipment and hopes to be back here within ten days to dismantle the Diesel plant and crate it for shipping, should the deal be made.
 He and his partner will put up a new building for their plant at Seldovia which will have space also for living quarters and an electric supply store.

 tion of Commissioner of Fisheries Bell in closing some 93 traps. which, MT. Mccain claimed were mostly dummy traps and not meant to catch salmon, and then opening up and giving back to the big operators some IS of the choicest trap locations in Alaska which Henry 0'Malley closed in the interest of conserving the salmon supply.
 The candidate advocated the tax ation method of closing the traps, and stated that the Alaska Legis- lature, while it has not the power to abolish traps directly, has the right to tax them as it has done for many years. He then showed that the courts have held that "the po- wer to tax is the power to prohi- bit," and proposed to raise the present license tax on traps until it becomes prohibitive. The speak CT claimed that abolishing several hundred fish traps now in exis- tence and sending out several thou sand seiners to catch the salmon the traps now take will restore prosperity to Alaska more quickly and surely than anything else which can be done. He emphasized that he does not desire to prevent the canneries from making a pro fit, and praised the local canneries for hiring local labor. He men toned that the Wrangell canner- ies are owned by genuine Alaskans who live here and spend their money in the Territory.
 MT. Mccain is a Ketchikan at torney, and is the son of Pio- neer of Alaska. He is a member of the Ketchikan City Council, and was formerly Assistant U. s. At torney in the Third Division. He left Wrangell for Ketchikan on the S. S. Haleakala this evening in company with Mrs. Mccain, who from Juneau.

The Washington times., 1934-10-11


people came flocking in to gel
information about provisions o.
the act. The interest in the pro
gram has been a surprise to Mr
Poole. as he explained yesterday
"TO q greater extent each day,
people come to the office and ask
information about loans. We
do not know whether it Is actual
interest or just curiosity, but
the response to the publicized
invitation to obtain information
has been surprising.
'OThere has not been single
post card or other mailing sent
from the office. These people
have read the papers and come
in for information.
"Tt is also surprising how
many of them have informed
themselves on the provisions OF
Title 2 of the act. This title
relates to refinancing under the
mutual mortgage plan. I do not
know what business the banks
are having in this line of finance
but I know that our office Is
handling more inquiries than we
thought possible"
There is one question that keeps
coming up in connection Wltn
Title 2. That question is asked
by q number of bankers: Whether
a loan up to 80 per cent Of the
value of the property can be con
Sidered good loan.
Certainly, the bankers say, such
a loan in the premoratorium days
would have be "a written off the
books by bank examiners. Why
should it be considered good to
day?
There isn't much in the way Of
an answer to such a question-ex
cept that which is offered by an
other banker in the city whose
reputation for conservativenesS Is
almost reactionary. He said:
"An 80 per cent loan on .
three-year trust is a poor loan.
But an 80 per cent loan with an
18-year amortization is perfectly
gOOd-prOvided the 100 per cent
taken as q standard is real.
In other words, if the remain
ing 20 per cent is an actual
equity, in value if not in cash,
the owner is a good risk and
has something to work for"
