in other Alaskan industries is due
to the NRA, and the imminence of
codes that are in process of prep
aration."
Predicts Military Bases
The Delegate is confident that
Alaska will shortly get both mill
tary and naval bases. Il am con-
fident that both the Army and
Navy will have establishments in
the Territory, including aerial bases.
The groundwork for these has al
ready been laid" he said.
He is also encouraged over the
outlook for establishment of an
aerial mail service in Alaska. He
is to meet Harllee Branch, Assist
ant Postmaster General, on his
arrival here next week from Sc
attic, and with Gov Troy AID
others confer with him on that
project. He is hopeful that this
will result in a concrete proposition
that will lead to the early realiza-
ton Of the Territory's dream for
air mail, and airways equipped
with all modern facilities.
Pressing Home Rule Bills
Il am not discouraged over the
outlook for greater measure of
Home Rule for the Territory"
Delegate Dimond said. Already
we have been given more powers
than we have ever had before. Our
Legislature now can fix the dates
of elections 1t has the sole juriS-
dction over the liquor traffic.
These powers were formerly vested
in Congress.
The measures to give it power
to control the fisheries, game and
fur resources have been given fair
hearings in committees of the
House. I shall press these for
consideration at the next session
of Congress. 1t is too early yet to
be able to predict that they will
pass, but I am hopeful that we
will be able to get Congress to give
us something to say about how
they are administered" he added.
Will Speak Here
Plans for a public meeting dur
ing the Delegates stay here are
under way. A definite date will be
fixed by Monday He probably will
be here for week or more.
He will also be a guest of the
local Bar Association within the
next few days.
The Delegate was greeted by a
large number of friends at the
dock when the steamer Alaska ar
rived here. He is guest at the

market sentiment took q turn for
the better Thursday and the
trading activity expanded on the
advance.
Although new commitments were
still somewhat ~selective, gains of
fractions to around 2 points we're
scattered over a wide front. News
from Washington and the industrial
sectors was generally considered
constructive.
Grains, cotton and most of the
other commodities were only mod
erately higher. u. S. government
securities were firm. Foreign ex-
changes did little.

new highs for the year, included
Philip Morris. Bayuk Cigar. Amer

bacso, Liggett e. Myers B, Houdail-
le-Hershey. Briggs Manufacturing,

so, were u. S. Steel. Bethlehem,
National Steel, Republican Steel, II.
S. Smelling Montgomery Ward,
Sears Roebuck, Macy, Union Paci-
fic, Santa Fe, Delaware q Hudson
and National Lead. The motors and
oils were listless. but the rails moved
up after a slow start.
The utilities generally held TO a
narrow range despite the recent rate
attack and a new blast Of federal
trade commission charging that n
propaganda" campaign had been
engineered by the power companies.
Even the veteran American Tele-
phone did not give a great deal OF
ground in the face OF announcement
that the communications commits
sion had ordered an Investigation Of
the corporation and its contract
with the Associated Bell companies.
Wall Street was principally con-
cerned with signs that business and
Industry are improving.
