The Admiral saw no land, but he
saw miles of open water behind IN
ice pack not nearly as big or tough
as 1t was supposed to be. So with
new flights for guidance, II may be
that we shall get our big steel ship
further south safely than Was
dreamed possible. 1t is now Decem-
Der rs and we have drifted around
for days In a thick fog.
And maybe this whole ship load
wasn't excited about Klondyke last
week ION the 20thl. We had sud

Admiral Byrd and Commodore
Gjertsen told me they had never
seen SO many at one time In Ill
their trips. The Admiral said. -Onfy
an undulating and extensive barrier
coast could produce bergs In such
large numbers. Somewhere here
abnnts is a barrier which may be
considerably larger than the great
Ross Ice barrier fronting on the
p,ss Sna. If that's the case and
we're lucky enough to find ii. the
eastward search for the coast OF
the Antarctic continent may be
ended"
But at ten o'clock In the morning
our thoughts we're taken violently
off OF icebergs and everything else
except Klondyke. At that hour she
increased the population Of the
Byrd Expedition to the extent OF
one full-blooded Guernsey bull-can.

laws. Only 57 banks closed their doors in the first II months of the year, Treasury Department figures show.
 Deposits in banks affiliated with the federal deposit insurance cor poration mounted $1,250,0 900 from June to October.
 Loans Guaranteed
 Efforts to prime pump which would pour millions of dollars 3t private capital into building proj- ects, and thus stimulate the tagging heavy goods industries, were con- tinued throughout the year
 One move toward that end was Congress guarantee of loans made by private financial institutions for rebuilding and renovating homes. Later the Federal Housing Admin istrator attempted to bring private capital to the aid of low-cost hous- ing projects, to clear slum districts and give loW-income workers de- cent living quarters.

fefred from direct to work relief rolls.
 A move toward a new method of organizing labor, and the labor re- lations boards opinions on labor's rights, were the high spots of 1884 for organized workingmen.
 After years of fostering the de- velopment of trade unionism, the American Federation Of Labor in September aproyed the organiza- ton of workingmen in mass pro- duction industries by industry rather than by trade.
 The impetus the recovery acts collective bargaining guarantee gave unionism brought the change in A. z. of L. policy.
 Newly inspired to bring all Am erican labor into it's ranks, the Federation looked to industrial un- ionization of the big mass pro- duction industries for a start. Au- tos, steel and aluminium were among the first

the National Housing Act does not carry with it qualification under Title IT." MT Pegues pointed out. Eligible institutions, although op- erating under Title I, are required to apply for membership under Title II. Practically every Alaska bank is eligible and most of them have applied for permission to make insured loans under the lat ter section of the National Housing Act.
 "The benefits of this are mani fold. Under it new construction can be financed on basis of five per cent, simple interest, old mortgages can be refinanced, homes may be purchased, and interest and amor tization payments spread over a period not to exceed 20 years"

important decisions was the ma jcrity rule" order The board found that Congress, when 1t guaranteed collective bargaining rights, meant to foster collective bargaining. To make that bargaining successful, the Board reasoned, an employer should deal with the representative of his employees. The representa- tive chosen by the majority of a unit of employees, it continued, should speak f0r all the employees.
 This ruling was bitterly contest ed, and at the end of the year was heading toward the Supreme Court for final decision.
 The Federal Government played an increasingly important part in the dealings of employees with their employers.

THE STORY OF 1884
By JOSEPH L. MILLER

WASHINGTON, Dec 28.-Presi- dent Roosevelt still faces a tre- mendous job in his attempt to re- habilitate the nations business and industrial machinery.
 As 1884 comes to close, govern ment figures show industrial em- ployment and payrolls are great deal higher than they were when the President took office. Similar figures, as well as reports on divi- dends show business generally is in a healthier condition.
 But, more than 17.0O0, 900 persons still are dependent on relief for at least part Of their food. clothing and shelter. The American Fedora ton of Labor estimated that at the start of winter there were 10,- 671 00O unemployed workers. 500,000 more than a year before.
 Future of NRA
 What should be done about NRA and relief? These closely related problems are two of the principal new years worries at the Admins trations doorstep.
 The Recovery Act expires on June Is, 1885. What will replace it? What has been good and what bad about this recovery partner ship among business, labor and government? Can MIRA be expected to ease the Governments relief burden that totalled more than one and quarter billion dollars in 1884? Is the present relief system good? How far can work relief sup plant direct relief?
 Gen. Johnson Departs
 There was much tinkering with MIRA during the past year. That tinkering, however. largely affected administration. T he hundreds of codes operated throughout the year essentially as framed.
 Hugh S. Johnson's departure, af- ter a bitter battle over the issue of whether private business should have greater hand in Code Ad- ministration, was the high spot.
 Relieving the Needy
 The stocky, outspoken former cavalry general who was MIRA in it's early stages, was replaced by an admins srative board headed by S. Clay Williams, tobacco execu- tive.
 With a few exceptions, labors fight to shorten industry's working hours by code revision failed.
 The Relief Administration. head ed by Harry L. Hopkins, did gi- gantic job of caring for the needy during the year
 Figures toward the close of the year showed 4,200,0OO families and 85000O single persons on relief rolls.

BY ELMER c. Waller

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Stocks
made small gains at an active
opening today. The dollar eased
slightly, and commodities made
moderate advances.
Automobile issues were in de-
mand despite reports showing a
slowing down in the industry. The
Iron Age today reported that the
automobile makers were expected to
release large steel tonnage orders
within the next fortnight, although
this week the industry was respon-
sible for a reduction in the coun-
try's steel operating rate.
Several issues in various sections
made new highs for the past two
years, including Douglas Aircraft at
2078, up % on 5000 shares; and
Hudson Motors 1915, up a on 5000
shares. Du Pont equaled its high
at 101A, up a on 1000 shares.
New York Central was up nearly
a point at 3824 Smaller gains were
noted in AtchiSon, Pennsylvania
and Chesapeake & Ohio. Utilities
advanced fractionally in fairly &C
tive turnover.
Steel issues continued to move
ahead in anticipation of higher
operations. Steel common opened
at 567s up p on a block of 1000
shares, while Republic firned up
% to 81 on 1000 shares, and Beth
lehem up % to 46 on 1900 shares.
Wet stocks were firm as were
farm equipments, electrical equip
ments, mercantile issues and cop
pers.
During the early trading, volume
increased so rapidly tickers fell be-
hind. Prices continued to advance.
Steel common made new high on
the movement, while General Mo-
tors made a new high since 1881.
Du Pont broke through it's former
1933-34 high. Rails bettered their
initial gains.
