After a Today tour through the
First Division, on which he has
visited the larger communities, DR..

and Republican candidate for
Treasurer of Alaska, will leave here
today on the steamer Dorothy Al
eyander for his home.
He has made no public address,
es at any point, combining his cam
paigning to personal contacts. He
has met many old-time friends and
acquaintance and met hundreds of
voters in JUL eau, Ketchikan,
Wrangell and Petersburg on the
present trip.
He expressed confidence in the
result of the triangular contest for
Treasurer. His opponents are Os-
car G. Olsen, also of Cordova.
Democratic candidate, and Walstein
G.. Smith, encumbent of the office
Cor 81 years. who is running as an
independent candidate.
There is no partisan feeling in
this contest" DR.. Chase said. IF
l am elected, I shall cooperate
to the fullest extent with Gov.
Troy and other officials. 1t will
be pleasure to work with them
for the advancement of the Ter
ritory."
DR.. Chase praised the work done
IN Washington by Delegate Dimond
and was equally warm in his ap-
proval of the Administration of
Gov. John w. Troy THE Delegate
has worked diligently and with
much success in Washington, and
the Governor has made a real
Chief Executive, aiding communi-
ties in meeting their problems, and
he and the Delegate have made a
fine team" he said
He will go from here to Cordova
and go to Anchorage to close the
campaign, making a final address
from there over the radio.

there was an earthquake or not, !

in time to see tons of granite and
rock fall. 1t was one of the most
amazing things I have ever seen, y
Mr.. White said A motion picture
record was made of the thrilling
sight as well as of ice falling from
the many glaciers surrounding the
bay.
Hunt With Camera
While Mr.. and Mrs. White thor
oughly enjoy fishing, the only hunt
ing done by the party is with mo-
ton picture cameras. They have
seen at least 81 brown bears dur
ing the summer and Mr.. White
has obtained some excellent pho
tographs at close range. He is an
experienced amateur photographer
and arranges his photographs into
feature films of several reels each
after his return home.
Interesting Feature Film
In one such feature, which has
proved interesting to friends of the
writer, a Gagged brownie at Golden
Gate Park, in San Francisco, play
ed leading role. The film first
shows the big fellow, pacing his
cage, looking bored and eventually
stretching out for a nap. 1t fades
then, into the dreams of former
days when he roamed the Wilds,
when the Alaska pictures are filled
in.
The 14th Alaska Cruise
Mr.. and Mrs. White term them
selves nonresident Alaskans" and
not without reason, as the present
cruise is their twelfth to Alaska

Leninism in Relation
To Worldwide Crisis

Of a number of new pamphlets
for the Tenth Commemoration

Of rocco art, is of a type unsuited
