THE first Dodge car ever built had
1 an all-s.eel body. 1t wasn't chance
:. 1t wasn't climbing on band
wagon" that led Dodge to the safety
OF the all-steel body. It was progress
sive engineering, the urge to pioneer,
to lead and not follow in vital, i'm
portant automobile Improvements.
These Dodge bodies have been tested
and proved by owners for over20years,
everywhere, in constant daily use.
Dodge not only pioneered the all-steel
body but has constantly perfected It
over tho years.
So, too, with hydraulic brakes. First
introduced by Dodge many years ago,
Dodge has constantly developed them.
Today, Dodge gives you hydraulic
brakes that are long past the expert
mental stage. For in Dodge you get
perfected, dual-cyiinder hydraulic
brakes-safer, more dependable, more

PROTEST LETTER

PALMER, June 24-The agri- cultural possibilities of the Mata- nuska arc not over-estimated, Pat rick Hemmer and Mrs. I. M. Sand yik, colonists, said in letter to Washington but they assert con- struction work is unduly delayed. The letter in part follows:
 We were promised many things before coming but we wonder if the promises were made purposely to breed discontent. The Corporation was to furnish free labor through the EZRA. This labor is not CO., operating with the Colonists and the only work being done is by the Colonists who are determined. to go ahead and build their homes with out the aid of the EZRA.
 Only two wells have been drill ed and they are not on dwelling sites No new roads are constructed except trails cut by the Colo nists. The contracts state the Cor poration would furnish subsistence for the Colonists at actual cost un- til we can exist from sale of our own products. We have found that actual cost means retail price at Anchorage plus freight from Palm CT here.
 No apparent effort to construct school is being made. The live stock has no shelter. We have learned that Juneau men at higher salaries have been sent to fill po- sitions of Washington men who are being replaced and given lesser jobs

GREATLY EXAGGERATED"

WASHINGTON, June 24.-Relief officials said Saturday Don Irwin, manager of the Matanuska colony, had wired that complaints of the settlers are greatly exaggerated. v Denying that medical care was inadequate, Irwin said doctor and trained nurse with two hos pital tents were providing all ne- cessary attention.
 Officials said Harry L. Hop kins, Relief Administrator, prob ably would send the Senate early this week a report requested by the Senators from Wisconsin, Mich igan and Minnesota on the condi- tion of the colony.
 Little outward attention was re- ported paid to the complaints in Washington from the group esti- mated at from 40 to 50 colonists. The main work of clearing land and digging wells is going forward, 1t is reported The infirmary con- sisting of four tent houses, one phy- sician and two nurses, a man and a woman, is operating with the Anchorage ho pital available if needed. Little illness is reported. One of the complaints to Wash ington was that medical facilities were inadequate. The lumber strike in the northwest has delayed start ing work on the school building, but authorities say they are sure it will be ready by September when Is teachers will be placed in charge of approximately 450 children.

CORPORATION COMMENT

Statement from the Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Corporation:
 The progressive attitude of the new settlers at Matanuska is com mendable and augurs well for the ultimate success of the undertaking though the over enthusiastic eager ness Of the colonists to establish themselves without delay in their new homes is such that they are becoming irked by semblance of de- lay in the construction program.
 This makes it difficult for them to understand some of the un- avoidable circumstances bound to arise in the conduct of an enter prise of this magnitude, which was put into operation upon such short notice, and without adequate fa- cilities of man-made industry at hand to render assistance.
 We believe, too, in the sincerity of the eastern social service work CTS responsible for the selection of such high type people to become a part of our Territory, and feel that promises made by them which the Corporation finds outside it's con- templated program and difficult or impossible of fulfi1lment, was due chiefly to lack of knowledge of Alaska and prevailing conditions.
 ''It is hoped. that longer residence in Alaska will accustom the new corners to the necessarily higher prices at Palmer, which in turn will react in their favor when the time comes for disposition of the products of their farms.
 We consider the dissatisfaction which has been expressed in recent news items to be of temporary character only and feel that with in a very short time the colonists will come to realize that any ad- justments of personnel or other changes which have been made are for the best interest of the whole project"
