Sound Development Of AIdskd Forecast
By EDWARD w. ALLEN,

Chairman, Seattle Chamber ot
 Commerce'S AlaSka Committee.
 Alaska is entitled to treatment and consideration as an integral part of the United States. To be sure it is separated from the main portion of our country by inter vening foreign territory, yet with excellent m arine transportation, with airplane service and soon we hope with an international high way linking Alaska's own road system to that of all America, sep aration and distance are as naught.
 This of all our nations terri tories, is settled by people of the same race, the same history, the same characteristics, the same am- bitions, the same patriotism as our states. Such people should not be treated as aliens, as dependents or as objects of charity or condes- tension, but as our own flesh and blood.
 The Alaska Committee of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce con- sists of sixty-six Seattle business men, men who know mining, fish ing, fur, reindeer, lumber, agricul- ture, transportation and industry. They know Alaska and are sympa- LheticallV interested in it's DrOpresS and welfare. They have a humani- tarian feeling of brotherhood for the people of the Territory and their problems. They believe that what is good for Alaska will in- evitably be good for Seattle. Hence they welcome suggestions from all who are sincerely concerned with the sound development of Alaska.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1934-01-28

in accomplishing this purpose. It means employment for Alaskans and an inducement to prospective settlers who have been eagerly looking for chance to make a new home.
 I do not look for a boom, but confidently expect that conditions in Alaska will be measurably bet ter in 1884 than in 1883.
 Our Goodwill Tour last summer was a most enjoyable one We ap- preciate the courtesy extended to us by Alaska people throughout the Territory. My best wishes for a prosperous year.

|To Extend Aid to Alaska--Prediction
Northwest and Alaska United by Strong Ties;
 Seattle c. of c. Program
By CASSIUS E. GATES,

 Seattle Chamber of Commerce
 Bearing in mind the mutuality of interests and the reciprocal re- lationship between the business of Seattle and Alaska, it will be the policy of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce, principally through its Alaska Committee, to cooperate with Alaska on all it's problems and projects which will bring growth and development to the Territory.
 The paragraph above is the pre- amble to the Alaska section of the Northwest Recovery Program which the Seattle Chamber of Commerce is undertaking during 1884 to bring about a return of better conditions in industry, agriculture and all lines of business We are asking our business men and citizens to invest $274,000 in our Chamber of Commerce to accomplish this pur- pose. And may I emphasize the words Northwest and Alaska" in our program, for it signifies the broad attitude taken by our or ganization. It indicates Seattle is offering it's leadership to a plan based on the fact that only by an improvement of conditions through out the Northwest and Alaska can recovery come to this city. It is a sound program and our people will enthusiastically support it.
 Will Assist Projects A few of the more important projects affecting the Territory on which we hope to give our earnest cooperation and assistance during the year, are:
 Securing a reasonable share of the Public Works Fund for Alaska.
 Encouragement of mining de- velopment, which is especially inn portant because of the present price of gold.
 Securing more adequate appro- priations for roads, biological and geological surveys, as well as other important federal activities in AL aSka.
 Harbor improvements.
 Every effort will be made to ob tain money from the Public Works Fund to commence construction of the Pacific International Highway.
 Now, as to what the future holds for Alaska I fully appreciate the danger in making any prophecy in these quickly changing times, yet I will venture the statement that analysis of recent national trends and events, as they affect Alaska, point very definitely to the coming of better times.
 In the first instance, business in the States has improved and our people are going back to work, both because of recovery in indus trial and business conditions, and through the employment offered by the civil works program. This is important as it affects the mar ket for those things which Alaska produces, particularly the fish prod ucts.
The Daily Alaska empire., 1934-01-28
Stimulate Mining

In the second place, the increase in the price of gold most certainly will stimulate activity in gold min ing. The initial effect will be seen in the number of small mining properties which will be opened up and later, if the price is stabilized, larger capital will be attracted. This means development of the Territory's mineral resources and the attraction of capital to help

Secrets Of Russian

Influence Exerted By Rasputin Heard as, Princess
 Testifes in Damage Suit Against Film Company

scenes in the film between Natasha and Rasputin were intended to convey" Her counsel, Sir Patrick Hastings, one of the most re- nowned trial lawyers in England, then asked:
 "In the ohspital scene where Natasha tells Chegodieff, I have no right to be your wife, what did that convey to you?"
 "She had no right to marry him after what had happened between her and Rasputin," the princess re- piled. ..,l., ,.,
 Sir William Jowitt, for the de- fehse. asked:
 "Do you say the inference you ask the jury to draw after look ing at the film-(A special show ing of the film was given for the jury)7-is that Rasputin committed rape?"
 "Yes," the princess replied de fantly. ..,
 She denied that she had tried to reach a money settlement with the film company. declaring that she wante d only to vindicate her char acter.
 She revealed that she is bringing suit also in the United States, France. Germany, Austria and Italy. She is suing 2SS movie houses in Great Britain "because I wanted them to stop the film and they wouldn't"
 Hastings announced that Prince Youssoupoff would be called as a witness. The hearing was adjourned until tomorrow.

SUIT OF RUSSIAN
 PRINCESS BEGINS
 IN COURT TO-DAY
Niece of Murdered Czar Claims Libel Against
 Movie Concern

London, Feb. 27-UP)-Eighty- two year old Justice Horace AVory began hearing today the essentially modern suit of a Russian princess who charges she was libelled by being portrayed in an American motion picture based on the life of Rasputin, the mad Russian monk. The suit is that of Princess Trina Alexandrovna, niece of the mur- dered Czar Nicholas II and wife of Prince Youssoupoff, who killed Rasputin. She is suing the Metro Goldwyn- Mayer motion picture company.
 The princess charges that in the film she was portrayed as Princess Natasha, who was represented as being seduced by Rasputin and be- scoming his mistress. One basis Tor the suit is that "Natasha was shown as wearing a nurses uni- forra similar to that Princess Irene Alexandrovna wore almost continI- ually during the war. Complete de- nial of the princess charges Is the basis of the motion company's defense.
 The princess went on the stand after the film was shown and inn 1neGiately scored a point by swear ing she had never met Rasputin.
 Hastings, regarded as Britain greatest trial lawyer. skillfully led the princess to review events at the Russian court from 1913 to 1918, designed to show that she was then the czar's only niece and the only Russian princess of her age attending the court, thus seeking to establish her identity as the character portrayed in the film.

FRANCE MAY YET
 SOLVE DEATH OF FRENCH JURIST
Evidence Shows That Al= bert Prince Was, Alive
 When Tied to Tracks

Paris, Feb 27 = P.)-Masis- trate Albert Prince, whose testi- mony in the Stavisky banking scan dal threatened ruin to. a score of politicians, probably was alive when he was tied to the railway tracks at Dijon, surgeons reported to-day. But if, as the government believes, Prince was murdered to silence him a few hours before he was to have started the testimony calculated to. blast the careers of some of the most prominent men in politics, his murder was in vain.
 Important stavisky documents were missing from his yellow lea ther brief case found near his body. But he spoke as from the grave to-day, A parliamentary com mission of A members, investigat- ing connection of politicians with Alexandre Stavisky, fraudulent banker was presented by the min istry of justice with voluminous !. Dossier containing detailed re- port which Prince finished just be- fore his fatal trip to Dijon. This report told all that con now be known of the manner in which the fraudulent banker obtained nine- teen adjournments of fraud charge brought against his in 1926
 Time after time. over a period of nearly eight years, Stavisky ob- taied adjournments of the case. Al the same time he was socially friendly with politicians of Thigh degree-and was spending money on a. scale that led to the $30.0OO,- 900 failure of his credit municipal Bayonne. Stavisky committed sui eide when police traced him to an Alpine villa. Then came the poli- tical crisis, with revelation of his friendship with prominent men and the fatal Paris riots.
 Prince was the principal invest1- gator in the case. He knew much about Stavisky. He was lured to his Dijon home by q fake telegram saving his mother was critically i'll. Blood found on a locomotive sent railway detectives searching the tracks. The judges mutilated body was found near Dijon. He was to have started his Stavisky testimony next day.

Divdent Drop Compared With First and Last Quarters
 of I933 Due to Semi=Annua Payments

dends semi-annually instead of quarterly.
 The Standard oil Export Cor poration and several of the pipe line companies are also on a semi annual dividend basis with pay ments being made in the second and fourth quarters, which to- gether with the fact that Socony- Vacuum Corporation will distrib- ute 15 cents a share this quarter compared with 25 cents a share last December accounts for the remainder of the decline from the preceding quarter.
 Humble Oil and Refining Com pany, whose stock was recently split three for one, has declared an initial quarterly dividend of 25 cents a share on the new no par value stock. This compares with quarterly payments of 50 cents q share on the old $25 par value stock and represents an increase of 50 per cent in the dividend rate. ble's stock being payable April l.. is not reflected in the total for this quarter.
 1OHlpdIISOH WILL lne HISl quar- ter of 1883 shows three favorable dividend actions which were. how ever. insufficient to offset the large declines occasioned by the ah- sence at this time of a dividend by the Standard of New Jersey and the fact that the Standard Oil Company of California, in the first quarter of last year, paid divi- dend of 50 cents share. com pared with 25 cents a share this quarter.
 South Penn oil company has de- clarcd q dividend of 30 cents a share, compared with 25 cents q share last quarter and 20 cents a share in the two preceding quar- ters. The Standard Oil Company of Kansas which resumed dividends last quarter after having suspend ed payments for nearly two years, is again paying 50 cents a share, while Socony-Vacuum corpofation paid only 10 cents share at this time last year compared with 5 cents q share in the current quar- ter

WOOL MARKET

Boston, Feb. 27.-(UP). Trad ing in wool was slow today. Ohio Delaine fine combing wool sold in small way at 35-36 \ cents a pound in the grease. As much as 43 cents was being paid for small lots of three-eights blood, and Al for quarter blood.
 Territory three- -eighths blood continued to sell at S0-82 cents a pound clean. and quarter-b blood at 72-74. Half-blood woQls were in small supply and the scarcity held prices firm at unchanged levels. Most interest was in -bloods.
 The U. S. agriculture department said: There is a very moderate volume of business going on in the wool market.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-02-27

New York, Feb. 27-Cash divi- dend payments by the companies of the Standard oil group for the first quarter of 1884 are estimated at $24,424,434 compared with $42,- 457, 920 in the preceding quarter and $32,4O6,332 in the first quar- ter of 1893.
 The absence of dividend dis tribution by the Standard Ol Company of New Jersey in the cnrrent quarter, while payments were made in both the first and fourth quarters of last year. ac- counts for the greater part of the decline in aggregate disbursements this quarter when compared with the figures for the two former pe- rfods. At this time last year the Standard of New Jersey paid d quarterly dividend of 25 cents a share or approximately $6,45O,0Oo, while in the fourth quarter q semi annual distribution of 50 cents a share or approximately $12,9o0,0O0 was made. This followed a similar payment in the June quarter at which time the company inau- gurated the policy of paying divi-
