ALASKA END TENTATIVE

The Alaska end of the road link between Dawson and Fairbanks, or 180 miles from Fairbanks to the boundary line, is estimated to cost $2, 2,250,000 as it is all new con- struction, according to Chief En- gineer Ike P. Taylor of the Alaska Road Commission, who returned on the steamer Yukon today from a trip to the Interior, and there is no immediate indication that the money will be made available by Congress for the undertaking which has long been proposed as part of the International Highway. ss
 MT. Taylor reports road work in the Interior nearing the end for the season, another week. or 10 days winding up the summer -activ- ity.

Delegate Anthony J. Dimond and son John, who has been receiving treatment at St. Ann's Hospital for third degree burns suffered in an explosion on a gasboat, are leaving on the Northwestern enroute to Se- attle and then to Washington, D. C.. their home.
 Young Dimond, who graduated from a preparatory school in the na- tnon's capital last spring, has been in Juneau all summer as mem-, Der of the Rev. Bernard Hubbard's exploration party, which this year worked in the Taku country.
 About month ago, the nine- teen year old boy was taken to the hospital for treatment for burns, and his father, notified by radio, came here at once from Ketchikan.
 Delegate Dimond has spent the last several weeks in Alaska and successfully campaigned for his re- election to Congress.

 The Maritime strike may not be settled for long time, the Mar shal said it appeared from conver- sations he had, but he does not an- ticipate a cessation in shipping for some time yet, not at least for sixty days. The employees whom he talked to seemed to be convinced that poli- tics had entered the dispute and blamed the ship owners for attempt ing to use the controversy against President Roosevelt, he said.

ESKIMO RACE
 ON INCREASE.
 SAYS CREST
Retiring Pt. Barrow Mis- sionary Says Hospital
 Saved Natives

Declaring that, contrary to pre- dictions made by scientists twenty five years ago, Alaskas Eskimo race has been saved from extinction, Dr. Henry Greist, retiring Presbyter- ian missionary and physician from Point Barrow, passeu through Ju- neau cn the Yukon today, enroute to the states ito rest for while"
 Counting as the principal fruit of his seventeen years in the Arctic, the satisfaction of having helped to 6tem the tide of destruction against the Arctic natives, Dr. Greist said: When I went to Point Barrow, the records indicated the Eskimos were doomed. The death rate was far higher than the births. The natives were easy prey to every epi- demic that swept the country.
 Extinction Forecast
 Some authorities had predicted that within fifty years, the Eskimo race would be so badly decimated that only handful would survive into another generation.
 "The establishment of our hos pital at Point Barrow-the only in of its kind in all that coun- try-was the beginning of the fight against the Eskimo's destruction. That the battle has been won is clearly indicated in recent vital sta tistics. Births are now running far ahead of deaths and disease has been combatted successfully for years.
 We changed the habits of the na- tives by making it rule that any person, or any woman eX- pecting child birth, must be moved to the hospital for attention. It was necessary to force discontinuance of treating sufferers in their homes.

 Mahoney Reports
Democratic Trend in West ern States -Borah, Me-
 Nary Are Favorites

Back from an extended trip on which he took prisoners to St. An thonys in Idaho. Portland, Ore, and Monroe Reformatory in Wash ington State, William T. Mahoney, VITO returned on the Alaska, re- ported the political complexion li-s ly in the States and bus ness mov- ing along rapidly.
 In Butte, Mont, where 5000 men are employed in the mines, he found industry booming and reports gen. orally indicating a trend in favor of President Roosevelt, although the Republicans are putting up a real battle. Senator Borah is consid- cred almost a certainty for re-elec- tion in Idaho, he reported, both Republicans and Democrats appar7 ently believing he will be success full. The Pacific Coast States will go under the Democratic banner in the November election, the Mar shal believes, judging from the comment he heard.
 Congressman McNary in Oregon also seems destined to win, the Marshal reported, and key to the situation seems to be that neither Borah nor McNary, both Repub- lican, have taken an active part in the National campaign, sticking solely to local issues. McNary even failed to meet Col Frank Knox when the latter appeared in Ore gon in behalf of his candidacy for Vice-Presidency on the Republican ticket. Mahoney was told in Port land McNary, he said, is going to draw a big vote from both the Democratic and Republican ranks.

SOMMERS' FINDS i BUSINESS GOOD
 ALL OVER J. s.
Next Three Years Expected to Continue Upward,
 Says Builder

R. J. Sommers ui the R. J. Som n.ers Construction Company re- 2 turned to Juneau on the Alaska after 8 two-weeks tr'p outside to secure the final supplies and equip ment for the new Alaska Electro Light and Power Company build ' ing which his company is erecting.
 Prosperity" said MT. sc.nmers, has evidently turned the corner. In every line of business it is the same story - increasing activity, optimism and the conviction that with the exception of a slight slow ing down for winter, conditions will continue to improve. From every observation I could make, better times have arrived in the States as well as in Alaska, and it is difficult to imagine anything that will check business growth at steady pace for at least the next three years"
 Is General
 The improvement is apparently general ughout the United States, according to the local con- tractor
 If there were any doubt on that score" he added, you don't have to look for your evidence. There were more than 2,500 persons who came west from Minnesota to see the foot ball game against Washington last Saturday. There were, two special trains and seven transport planes chartered Certainly it's been many years since that much money has been spent for travelling to an inter sectional football game"
 Skilled Workers Scarce
 Mir Sommers declared that con- struction work and factory output is restricted to considerable extent by the difficulty in obtaining ex- perienced workers.
 Business is feeling the drain of the lean years when there were few apprentices employed by industry" he said. There is normal retire mcnt of probably five percent among the ranks of expert craftsmen, and during that time apprentices were not engaged. Now the cycle has come around and the ranks are empty to that extent. Fortunately, this situation is being corrected and thousands of new apprentices are learning their trades
 Secure Material
 MT. Sommers said that all mater ials to complete the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company build ing have either arrived or been shipped. The last of it is coming on the Northland," he declared.
 The Juneau contractor is plan- ming to take next weeks westward boat to Seward, where he will enter i bid for construction of the hydro elect plant for that city. Bids are to be opened October l2.

We're going through the Southwest, to New Orleans and possibly back to Texas and into Old Mexico. But we won't plan our route more than one day in ad- vance"
 While looking forward to enjoy ing his motor trip, Dr. Greist said that he cannot realize he is leaving Alaska without feeling of sadness. This land is our home,"' he said

The conditions in their houses are almost hopeless for an invalid, where so many persons are crowded into one small room.
 Come 800 Miles Now
 "As result of our work, the Es- kimos now bring their ailing to the hospital from as far as 500 miles away. The medicine man is a thing of the past. Fully 95 per cent of the natives living along the Arctic Coast have been converted to Christian 'ity."
 Dr. Greist also had plenty to say concerning the storm that has ragged around the stories of suffering of natives near Barter Island. He said that despite messages disputing his first reports of privation, the inves- tigation by Frank Daugherty of the Indian Affairs School Dept. have shown the dire need of these peo- pie. The Revenue cutter Northland, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs vessel North Star have since un- loaded tons of food at Point Bar row, to be taken along the coast to Barter Island
 Caught Little Food
 Dr. Greis. said that no seals and practically no fish were caught in that region this year, that the wolves had reduced the Barter Is- land herd of reindeer to 600 head of woefully weak animals, suffer- ing some hoof disease as a result of being driven into swampy lands. Since then the herd has been moved to higher ground. Permission to move an additional herd from the vii cinity of Point Barrow to Barter Island was refused by the Reindeer Supervisor at Nome. But while he was in the Juneau office of the Bu- reau of Indian Affairs today, Dr. Greist was informed that Governor Troy had two weeks ago sent word to Point Barrow authorizing the moving of such reindeer as were needed.
 To Take Auto Tour
 Dr. Greist says he has no defin- ite plans for the future. His former home is at Monticello, Indiana, but he does not intend to go there un- til next spring or summer. Mrs. Greist left Nome on the Baranof and will join him at Seattle and they plan to start a motor trip to the

prevent light reflection on the

Brewer said the new plates. would
be struck from the same dies that
were used last year-dies, incident

Therefore, the figures on the new

The plates are manufactured at

Let's get at the bottom of things
to begin with. How are your feet
being treated and how do they feel
about it? Hot and tired and com
plaining? That means poor circula-
ton, most likely. Try exchanging
massage services with your daughter
or neighbor. With a strong, Wig
orous movement, massage from
the knee to the end of your big toe.
Get the blood travelling in those
sluggish veins SO it doesn't obey
the law of gravity too much. Battle
in warm water, then in cold, and
finish with busting powder. Various
foot powders are on the market
which have a soothing effect when
sprinkled in the shoes.
Are those cool sandals giving you
enough arch support? good ex-
ercise for Strengthening the arches
is to sit with crossed knees and ro-
tate your relaxed foot, slowly, with
an upward, outward movement. Be-
gin with a few minutes a day, in
creasing the time as lazy muscles
begin to harden. And always walk
On the outside edge of your foot,
with toes pointed straight ahead.
We're down off our stills, thank
heavens, and are enjoying better
foot and body health as a result.
But low heels, though a help, can't
do all the work. Be sure your toes
have enough room. And if you
should wear a c width, don't let
an enthusiastic salesman sell you an
A; and never, never tolerate run
over heels.
An de- of ours that amounts
practically to an obsession is that
a woman's stomach can make or
mar her entire appearance. A fat
stomach means laziness more often
than not. Practice holding your
stomach in. When you do this you
instinctively lift the chest, and
tighten the muscles of the buttocks.
1t seems hard, but it can become
a habit, and your clothes look bet
ter on you, your entire posture i'm
proves; you acquire poise and con-
fidence. A woman is as old as her
stomach.
When you're in a big hurry and
a run in your stockings threatens
to waste precious moments, stop
it with a drop of nail-polish. The
drop will withstand several wash-l:

subject of. nail-polish: Have you
ever found a man who liked bright
polish on his wife's Or girl-friend's
nails? Whether or not it is smart
will never be agreed upon anyway,
so why not stick to what che"
likes.
A white pique jacket is an inval-

Wear it over prints and pastels,

doesn't lie in the recipe. A friend
Of ours who makes the best fudge
we've ever eaten does it mostly by
guess. A couple of cups of sugar,
enough cocoa to make the sugar
dark, and milk to make a rather
thin mixture. But -. she never
stirs it once after the soft-ball test
has determined that it has boiled
long enough. And she never beats
it until it is entirely cold. You'll
have a hard time beating it, and
will have to work fast the second
it loses its sheen and should be
turned into a pan. But you'll BEL
