 There are other markets that lay in the future-those that will result from the nu- merous military landing fields with personnel, that are now projected. Naval bases and military ammunition and sup ply depots will soon be reali- ties, all employing hundreds of men and supporting large lists of families.
 There is no reason to doubt but that the scientifically rais ed and processed products of this valley, The Bread Bask ct of Alaska, will not as the brand becomes known and lik ed, reach out and be a part of every larder and cupboard in the Territory.
 In conclusion permit me to say that Alaska's first Col onization Project is sound both from the standpoint of fertility of the soil and avail able markets.

THE SEASON DRAWS
 TO A CLOSE.

In the past few days, tourist travel to Alaska has dropped. Fewer boats are coming nor tn. All that marks the begin ming of the end of a season far more successful than had been expected. At the same time the fishing in the Ketch- ikan district ended recently, and within a short period the canneries will be running through the last fish of the season-a season which also has been far more successful than had been expected.
 So it is that the summer and the beehive of activity that has been Ketchikan will leave us for another year.
 Immediately. we have some thing to look forward to: the fair. After that will be Christ mas. Then spring and anoth- CT fishing season, another tour ist season.-Ketchikan Alas ka Chronicle.

one possible reason for fail ure and that rests entirely with the human factor, hum- an nature being what it is.
 Farming is hard labor, and it will take labor to produce results on Matanuska soil, just as it does on any farm.
 Let us hope that these people brought from the pov erty of their homelands to this newly given opportunity in a virgin unspoiled country, will be sufficiently apprecia- tive of the task that confronts them to give to it the best that is in them.
 If they do this, we can ask no more. They too, as well as Matanuska are writ ing a new chapter in Alaska's

INCENTIVE SEEN
FOR WORKERS

NEW YORK, Dec. 20.-Earning
power of American wage earners
cannot be measured on the basis
of hourly or weekly wages alone,
according to survey by the Ma
tional Industrial Board.
The investigation, covering 2,452
business establishments and over
4,500,00 employees, shows that op-
portunitieS for increasing income
are available to employees in a
large proportion of business con-
Germs.
Frequently, it was said, the op-
portunity to earn higher than the
standard wage is provided through
incentive wage plans. More than
half of the companies in manu-
featuring industries have piece
rates in effect and nearly third
use premium and bonus payment
systems.

GUARD
WARNING

BERLIN, Dec. 20.-The German
press recently featured the inSpec-
ton by Chancellor Adolf Hitler OF
his bodyguard, garrisoned in the
the former cadet school at Lich-
terfelde, suburb of Berlin where
occurred most of the executions
during the party purge last year.
The Voelkischer Beobachter de-
voted most of the front page to an
illustrated report of this event.
The bodyguard consisted origi-
nally of black uniformed special
guards, the central organization of
which is the Gestapo, the secret
state police.
Who Was Warned?
Now the bodyguard is under
army jurisdiction and is being
dressed in army field grey but it
is still separate body whose sole
purpose is to protect Hitler.
The reports stressed very plain
ly that it has its own highly mod.
ern motor shops, its own armory
and its rifle range which is prob
ably the most modern in Ger

as a warning to somebody and, if
so, whom.
Some held they were intended
to reinforce another official an
nouncement that q courts had
been created throughout Germany
TO defeat all treacherouS attacks
on the party and State by hostile
elements, to assure calm in the
work of rebuilding the German
people, to guarantee domestic
peace and to maintain the work

The principal task Of the courts
will be to deal with all SubverSive
elements, including Communists,
Socialists, reactionarieS, grum-
blerS, critics and profiteers, whose
increasing numbers apparently are
too much for the ordinary courts.
It is estimated that about 1000
years imprisonment were imposed
on several hundred political of.
tenders. mostly Communists and
Socialists, during November, and
hundreds more still face trial.

LOVE SLAYING'
LINKED TO
NURSE

WOONSOCKKET, R. l., Dec. 20
U.N.S0.-Has State Toxicologist
wallace Bohrer discovered traces
of arsenic in the exhumed body
Of Mrs. j. Valmore Normandin?
Was Mrs. Frank Prince, of East
Douglas, Mass, poisoned because
she was "in the way" of love?
Answers to these two questions
weer sought by authorities of two
States today as the investigation
of the activities of Marie Simone
Sevigny, 26. unregistered nurse
and accused "mercy killer" of
Mrs. Normandin, continued.
The arsenic question was raised
when the toxiocologist, asking for
moer samples of embalming fluid,
refused to confirm or deny re-
ports that he had discovered
traces of the poison.
Nurse Sevigny, police said, had
confessed" to giving her patient
ammonia to lend her sufferings."
Held for an alieniSt examination
at Cranston Reformatory, she re-
pudiated her confession, and
asserted Mrs. Normandin COM
mitted suicide.
Meanwhile, at Grafton (Mass)
barracks of the Massachusetts,
State police, Frank Prince, hus-
band of another patient of the
nurse, told police of trysts with
her while his wife lay dying and
stated, police said, that she pro-
posed marriage.
Prince was taken from a ma
chine works in Whitinsville. where
he had worked beside Newell P.
Sherman, convicted American
tragedy" slayer of his wife. Sher-
man tipped her from a canoe
while in love with another ma
chine shop worker, Esther McGill.

A Good "Find."

When Svend Petersen left the post
office last Thursday noon to go home
for dinner he spied something out on
the road that looked like a pocket
book. At first he suspected that
someone was going to play joke on
him and passed it up; on second
thought, seeing no one around, he
decided to go and pick it up. Still
being suspicious of joke he slipped
it in his coat pocket and went on home.
At home Mr.. Petersen was highly
surprised to find that the old and
we'll worn pocketbook contained the
neat little sum of ninety-eight dollars
in currency and a check. Mr.. Peter
sen expected the owner to make in
quiries around town for it but he
failed to do that, so after four days
Svend got tired of waiting and went
to the owner and turned it over to
him for which he (the owner) was
very thankful.

Elna Petersen Returns Home.

A little news item that is of vital
Importance to one Askov home, and
which comes as very good news to
the whole community, occurred here
Saturday when Miss Elna Petersen
returned home from the Pokegama
Sanatorium. Miss Petersen entered
the sanatorium approximately four
years and four months ago on account
of tuberculosis, and has been con-
fined to a bed continuously until just
the last few weeks when she was per-
mitted to be up for short intervals.
During her long stay at the sana-
forum she has undergone many set
backs and partial recovery spells; at
times her condition was very serious.
She is cured as far as the tuberculosis
is concerned but it will likely take
the greater part of year before she
can regain her former strength. AS
yet, she is only able to be up for
short periods at a time.
