HITLER CRITIC HAS CONFIDENCE IN NEW LEADER
Won Papen Believes Chan cellor Will Continue von
 Hindenburg's Work

NEUDECK, Germany. Aug. A. Confidence in Adolf Hitler as the Leader of New Germany is ex- pressed by Franz von Papen, until recently Vice Chancellor and critic of extreme Nazism.
 The note of confidence was given after a visit to the deathbed of the late President, Paul von Hin denburg.
 Von Papen said Hitler would serve as trustee of von Hinden- burg's noblest tradition and history will continue the work to which the life-sainted Field Marshal was devoted"
 Von Papen's statement is re- garded as reassuring to Nazis since he is considered the leader of Conservative Germany He has been named Special Envoy to Aus tria by Hitler but the Austrian Government has not yet accepted him.

Alaska's Red Salmon Pack Breaks AU
 Peace-Tin,e Records

Alaska's red salmon pack this year will break all rec ords for peacetime and will run a close second to the all-time record pack of the 1918 season when packers, spurred on by high prices and fishing from mid-May until Fall, put up 2,556,559 cases of that variety.
 This seasons red pack up to July 28, last was 2,487,375 cases, 71,184 cases less than the 1918 total, according to figures released today by the United States Bureau of Fisheries.
 The Bristol Bay district led, of course, with a pack of 1,676,942 cases as con- pared to 1,729, ,622 cases in 5 1919. Had it not been for a lack of cans during the cur rent season, the total pro- duction probably would have exceeded the record figure. Several plants were forced to close down on this &C., count while the run was still heavo and several days before the end of the sea- son.

Tn case a Naval Air Base is ever established in Alaska, Juneau has many characteristics that would make it a perfect location for such a base" Rear Admiral A. w. Johnson, Commander of the Aircraft Base Force, United States Navy, said today.
 Tt must be remembered that the particular type of plane now anchored in your harbor has a mobile base in the tenders of my force. In other words we can operate from wherever we can find an anchorage suitable for both planes and tenders. This is illus trated by the fact that these same planes have in the past few months operated from Porto Rico to Alaska away from any estab- lished bases.
 Have A Limit
 However, any Navy unit, ships, submarines or planes, have a limit to the period during which they may be self-supporting. In case of operations of long duration it would be desirable and almost ne- cessary to have a central point as rendezvous to replenish supplies, etc.
 "As you know, I am in Alaskan waters for the first time and have seen only small portion of them, so I am in no position to make comparisons. Juneau, being well located and already city of con siderable commercial advantage of :

base, as well as being situated on waters ideally suited to the opera ton of patrol planes" he said.
 ''In addition to these favorable characteristics, the fact that the city itself would be a pleasant place in which to live and both the beauty of the surrounding country and the charm of the residents add considerably to the appropriateness of the city as a naval base" he said Tn the event such base is ever estab- lished the preferred location would be as close to the city itself as possible, in my opinion,' Admiral Johnson said.

Discovery of Sack of Dyna- init Results in Special
 Precautions

ENROUTE WITH PRESIDENT, Aug. 4-Convinced that seeing is believing" President Franklin D. Roosevelt crossed the Pacific Northwest with the announced pol icy that the Government is going to control the natural resources to expand this section.
 A sack of dynamite and percus- sion caps found near the rail- road right-of over which the Presidents special train passed two and one-half miles southwest of Spokane, led to extreme precau- tions of Federal and county of ficers to avoid any attempt against the Presidential train for any incl dent.
 Take No Chances
 We thought possibly the dyna- mite might have been intended for the Presidents train. We are talk ing no chances" said Sheriff George Mills, revealing the discovery. For four days a heavily armed body of Secret Service agents and deputies watched the spot in hope those who deposited the sack might re- turn for it.
 Hailed by Throng
 The President was hailed by throngs along the way from Bonne- vile Dam. A great outpouring of people accorded him ovations the entire length of the line from the dam to the present moment.
 Enroute to the Coulee power site the President said he expects the Columbia River to be thoroughly harnessed and brought under Gov ernment control.
 Part of the way the President rode on the rear platform of his coach and said Hello" repeatedly to the crowds who cheered him.
 His First Talk
 It was at the Bonneville Dam site he made his first talk on U. s. soil since his return from Hawaii He said: There is an old saying that seeing is believing. That is why I am here"
 Continuing the President said: q believe the day will come on. the Columbia River when we will not only expand the seagoing navi- ton far back into the continent, but at the end of sea navigation we will be able to extend barge navigation still farther back north into the State of Washington and far into the State of Idaho"
 Greater Population
 The President pointed out that in the Northwest there is room for "a vastly increased population" which he thought will be required in the country's progress. There are many sections. the President said, where land has run out or has been put to the wrong kind of use.
 Real Roosevelt
 America is growing. There are many people who want to go to sections of the country where they will have a better chance for them selves, their many children and need room for growing families" and the President added, with a smile: As Roosevelt, I am think ing about growing families
 This afternoon the President speaks at Coulee project where 40000 are expected to assemble from two States to fill the huge natural amphitheatre.
