record flight made from San Fran cisco to the Hawaiian Islands last January, by one of them.
 While the hop of the six big seaplanes to Pearl Harbor, Ha- waii, was the most spectacular un- dertaking in the history of our na- val force, and was carried out on schedule, perhaps the most useful was the mass flight of Squadrons ' and to Ketchikan, Juneau, Cor dova, Valdez. Seward, Kodiak and Sitka last summer" he writes.
 Warmth of Welcomes
 Beauties of the scenery encoun- tered and the warmth of welcomes found, entertainment offered in each of the towns visited, are am plified by MT. Mcconnell. At Ju- neau and everywhere else in Alas ka (and in Prince Rupert and Vancouver, B. O. Conn m a n d e I Shoemaker and his flying person. mel received a welcome that they will never forget. Alaskans, accus- toned to neglect by Washington bureaus, interpreted the visit of the the twelve seaplanes, and the three tenders as an assurance that Uncle Sam had not altogether forgotten his Ugly Ducklings,' as our most valuable possession has been called"
 Practicability
 He clearly describes the prepar- ations and plan on which the schedule of planes and tenders was carried out by Admiral A. w Johnson and his staff. The demon stration that such an expedition is practicable and that it is possible for planes to operate in group for nation thousands of miles away from their base, as mobile unit of the country's defense. Admiral Johnson has demonstrated that with these flying men-of- war, op- erating with small tenders and a flagship, an aerial bombing and scouting patrol can be made en- tirely self-supporting. In other words, they can operate for months at a time along a coast where ther1 are no landing fields, hangars supply depots, or wherever anchorage can be found for planes and tenders"
 The vast importance of the pho tographic work done in Alaska by the airmen of both Army and Navy is expediting the work of the Geological Survey, Forest Serv- ice. Photographic Office at Wash ington and the Army and Navy themselves is emphasized in this very interesting and timely article concerning the visitors which Jul neau received few months ago
 Through the wide spread circu- lation of the American Legion Monthly, which reaches 9OO,0OC readers, practically all of whom are definitely interested and pledged to the country's defense, this arti- cle, in the opinion of many local Legionnaires, will do much to aid the Alaska defense program,

Mild Rally After Irregular
Opening Fails to Bring
Much Change.
BY VICTOR EUBANK,
Press Financial Writer

NEW YORK, February 27.-Stocks
displayed a quiet disposition to rally
today, but advances generally were
moderate. Trading was the dullest
in some time The late tone was
steady to firm. Case and United
States Smelling got up 2 or more
points each, while improvement of
fractions to point was shown by
United States Steel, General Motors,
Electric Auto-Lite, Santa Fe and
Sears Roebuck.
Caution was the watchword Of most
traders and the activity was the dull
est since the first few days of jan
uary Transfers approximated only
1,250,000 shares. The close was fairly
firm.
came back about 3 points. while
American Smelling and Cerro De Pas
20 advanced / each. Case. Sears Roe
buck and Montgomery Ward recov-
cred a point or more, but Penney
dropped /. Such issues as United
States Steel, Chrysler. American Can
United Aircraft. Goodyear, New York
Central and Bethlehem Steel were
slightly higher Most of the utilities
and motors were virtually unchanged.
Hopes here of an early settlement
of strikes in automotive plants at To-
ledo were not advanced by word that
manufacturers there had started hir-
ing workers TO fill the posts vacated
by the strikers. 1t was understood
that an attempt would be made to
resume operations in full.
Overnight consideration OF the
Presidents message to Congress rec
ommending a Federal commission for
the control of communications, and
the introduction of bills to that effect
today. apparently did not excite the
followers of these stocks. II was
pointed out. however. that the mes
sage. and subsequent measures. were
about in line with expectations and
that many problems connected with
this section of the public utilities field
still have to be solved.
Publication of salaries and bonuses
received by officials OF the country's
largest corporations, while interesting
to Wall Street, also appeared to be
neutral factor in the speculative de-
partment.

Policies Changed
By Cash Dividend
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. February 27.-The
declaration of a 121a cent cash divi-
dend on North American Co. common
stock, the first cash disbursement in
many years, was Of interest to those
in Wall Street who remember the ag-
gressive insistence of the late Frank
L. Dame, former president. that stock
dividends were best for the company
and its stockholders.
Dame held unswervingly to this
course through most, if not all, of the
long period in which he headed the
company. The company was liberal
with its stock payments. but the
profits were turned back into the
property.
Whenever a stockholder suggested
that some cash should be handed out
Dame would send him form letter
setting forth what he believed to be
the great advantages Of the stock
dividend plan.
With the cash dividend the COM
