Just Another WOOzy
 Story By CheeckakO

Golfers Weekly of October 24. says the Fairbanks News-Miner. contains a short story, the scene of which is laid in the vicinity of Fairbanks. The title of the story is Trailing Trouble. Man Hunt With a Girl" The story is good enough. in it's way, but, like so many attempts to make literary capital of the Alaska background, the authors ignorance of the coun- try brings a smile of amusement to the countenanee of the old-timer.
 The heroine is depicted as a pub lie stenographer at same undesigna- ted place near the mouth of the Tanana River. where she says polite things to cheechako tourist clients. If there are any towns along the lower Panama boasting the metro politan institution of public stenog- rapher, Fairbanks has not heard of them. Also, she is a sister of "the prettiest girl in Fairbanks" That well might be, but in view of the many prettiest girls in Fairbanks, one would find difficulty in iden- tifying this heroine. The hero is Pete Shields. a deputy marshal. His duties are described as being tto see that nobody sold whiskey to Aleuts or Tlingits. keep an eye on divers matters of game and mining laws, act as de facto justice of the peace, and be health officer and general maid of all work" Quite a job, when you consider the feat of enforcing prohibition from a station on the lower Tanana to the far flung Aleutian Islands with one hand. while reaching over with the other to keep the Thngits dry in southeastern Alaska, and at the same time doing all the work of the the mining inspector and the health officers.
 In response to a letter from "the prettiest girl in Fairbanks" to the steno sister. Pete and the girl start up the Panama River with dogs and sled to go to the rescue of "The Prettiest Girls" sweetheart who is operating a trapline. After four or five days travel they arrive at their destination which is described as twelve days out of Fairbanks Four or five days from the mouth of the Tanana and still twelve days out of Fairbanks might seem like slow going to the old-time dog mushers and mail carriers. but they may have had some difficulties as the story begins: "The last steamer to come down the Tanana before the freeze-up brought a letter which took Pete Shields up river again" Apparently, such a detail as wait ing for the river to freeze and the snow to come-usually a period of several weeks after the trip of the last steamer-did not occur to the cheechakO story writer.

12 Plane Passengers

JUNEAU. Alaska Nov. 27=Res- .ued from the beach where they spent three days after being forced down by bad weather. 12 passengers in the tri-motored plane piloted by Chester Brown, long overdue in Juneau on a flight from Cordova. today told of their experiences.
 Coast guardsmen on the cutter Morris found Browns plane yester- day morning in Gull cove. Idaho pas sage, 75 miles from here Brown said that he had been forced to land on account of fog He started 10 turn around at the head of Yaku- tat beach, bur the fog closed in and he was compelled to come down in Gull cove.
 W. ". Stoll. Seattle mining man. said that the party of II spent three days on the beach with little 10 eat except clans He and the others ate Thanksgiving dinner aboard the Morris.
 Woman Encourages Others
 The lone woman in the party eu- couraged them. he said. stating that As a Thanksgiving it will be the happiest in my memory hearing the blast of the Morris arriving. Fishermen had given us what shel- ter and food they could One of them Sam Butts. had a small radio. giv- ing us news hourly of Che search.
 Attempts were made to send out a message but unsuccessfully. Fin ally a passing fisherman took a mes sage to Hoonah for Us and tFe search was on. The Morris was within ten miles of us when it was ordered to proceed to our rescue.
 Pilot Browns landing in the heavy squall was a miraculous piece of armanship."
 Brown flew over this city yesler- ten of the 12 passengers he brought south, and two others picked up here The other two are boarding passengers arrived late in the day.
 Brown Proceeds Cutter
 Brown flew over this city yester day morning and landed at the army airport nine miles out of town. His passengers arrived for the south.
 Brown and his tri-motored plane were sought by the cutter and Pilot Simmons of Juneau Tuesday with out success because of fog conditions Simmons returned here at 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon after a second search as extensive as possible out side the fog area that covered the district between Juneau and the Gulf of Alaska. He went as far as Yakutat scouting along the beach. then flew back over ice-eapped mountains and glaciers.

WRANGELL COLD STORAGE CROWDED. TO DOORS WITH FISH FOR SHIPMENT

 Domestic Meat Supply

The open winter kept the deer upon the mountains and many good hunters had poor sue cess in the best deer areas. Moose in the lower stikine proved disap- pointing to most of the men hunting that area.
 The value of the cold storage plant to Wrangell. handicapped though it is by being only about a third as large as needed. is felt by every citizen in the district as dir eetly or indirectly. the living of ev- cry person here comes primarily from the fishing industry. During the past summer there were over 480,00O pounds of fish frozen of which a little more than 100000 pounds have been shipped.

Radio Stations Are
 Important In Alas.

The Territory of Alaska is served by one Of the most efficient and least expensive rapid communication systems of any area of similar size in the world. il is believed. The huge area with relatively limited transportation facilities, and with less frequent mail service than is the usual case in the United States make radio and cable communica- tions a very important development in the commercial and personal lives of residents of the Territory. it Is declared. The very low rates and easy availability of stations in all parts of Alaska make the Alaska system outstanding as an example of electrical communications in a sparsely inhabited country.
 The Alaska Communication Sys- tenn operates 9 stations in Alaska. These stations not only serve as a means of intercommunication with in the Territory but are fed mes sages for transmission to the out side by g Territorial stations and by 9S stations operated by salmon cauneries which also are licensed to send messages for residents and oth- CTS located near the canneries.
 About 60 percent of the message traffic between Alaska and Seattle is made Up of commercial or Dri- vate business. The Canned Salmon Industry. which is the largest tax payer within the Territory. is also one of the largest users of the Coy ernment communications system. The peak flow of messages cores ponds closely to activity in this In- dustry. The past summer. which saw the largest Salmon pack in history. also witnessed the two record months of the communication sys- tenn. An interesting comparison here is that during the summer of 1885. with fishing in Bristol Bay restric- ted, the peak of message flow level ed off early in the summer and did not follow it's usual sharp upward trend
 The seasonal character of the Canned Salmon Industry in Alaska causes a heavy concentration of the commercial traffic of the communi- cations system during the summer months. with very little business or iginating from this Industry be- tween October and April The large personnel which is necessary to op- rate the system under summer peak conditions is maintained through -nr the year. however. resulting in eyaellert year around service to the residents of Alaska.
 The communications system has been in existence for thirty-seven years. and is operated by the Signal Corps of the U. S. Army. The pres. ent rates charged for private mes sages are said to be lower than com mercial operation would permit. The press rate for transmission of news to the Territory is believed to be the lowest in the world for any compar- able distance.
