 According to astrology this is not an important day in planetary di- rection. There is a sign presaging good news of some sort for the United States.

familiesa from the stricken farm areas in Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota to one of the fairest valleys under rthe sun-the Mata- nuska--covered with virgin spruce and hem lock surrounded by majestic mountains. While some mistakes were made by social workers entrusted with the selection of the col onists. and persons who were physically unfit or without experience in agriculture were sent, the colony fifteen months after it's initiation bids fair to achieve the objectives desired.
 The colonists have been lifted from the relief rolls to self-sustaining labor; they have founded homes and started life anew They will supply the region along the Alaska Rail- road Seward. Anchorage and Fairbanks with fresh vegetables, dairy products, fresh poultry and meats which were formerly imported at staggering prices. Dairy products worth s89OO0O were shipped into the Territory last year and Alaska for a generation has subssted largely on canned foods. The wants of the new .colonists will more than compensate in trade with the Northwest for the diminished import of foodstuffs.
 The impulse of the Matanuska colony has started what would be considerable Alaska ward trek, if transportation were sufficient. Every steamer plying between our Northwest and Alaska is loaded to the gunwales h. creased transportation accommodations both to and in Alaska are pressing need. The territory needs more ShlpS; more aVlatlOn la cilities It needs the construction of the Pa cific-Yukon highway, which would provide an overland route from the United States to Alas ka. Roads needed within Alaska to open up new lands for settlement and new mineral areas In the absence of funds for such road building, Alaska has made unique use of the airplane.
 Last year seventy-nine planes in Alaska carried 16,982 passengers, flew 2130929 miles and carried 2,418,616 pounds of mail and freight. Nowhere else as in Alaska has heavy mining machinery been taken apart and flown piece by piece to inaccessible mining camps and dropped by parachute; Nowhere else is flying so hazardous, given the, lack of landing fields and beacons. Alaska fliers land and take off in the smallest cearngs, river sand bars in Summer and, in Winter on the frozen surface of lakes. t,.s
