Covering 1485 miles by airplane and S8 miles by dogteam in addition 'lo steamer and train trips, Mrs Mar tha B. Refsland, elementary super visor of education in the Office of Indian Affairs, returned to Juneau recently after an absence Of nearly three months, according to the Ju- neaU Alaska Press.
 FI.n the newest government school at Nunipitchuk, to one of the oldest at Bethel, Mrs. Refsland made her tour of inspection and reports that the Eskimos are happy and tccutented.
 Eskimo children seem to enjoy their school work and are eager to learn, Mrs. Refsland said. In many of the villages visited, Quithlook. Tundra, Akiachack. Nunipitchuk, Ak iak, Tuliksak, Kalskag, and Sleit- mute, the Eskimos are never reach ed by the white settler (exeept in 9 few rare cases where there is 8 white teacher) and they are NOT asking for relief. Mrs. Refsland said. The natives are self-sEffcient, living by raising reindeer and fishing.
 Only where the natives have subsis- ted on the white mans food IS there tooth decay, the educator said. Where sugar, candy or other white mans food is eaten, tooth decay is great, she added,

HIGH FREIGHT RATES
 HOLDING BACK ALASKA

Alaska has been held back by the | excessive freight rates and inferior itv of goods shipped for consumption there" declared Dr. Peter Guldhrand- sen. author. traveller and lecturer, when addressing the City Commons Club Of Berkeley, recently on the subject, Alaska, Our Fortynlnth State ."
 Mr. Gulbrandsen made an extsn- sive visit through Alaska last year.
 The Alaskan people consume more imported goods per capita than any other group in the United States. The attitude of American shippers that anything is good enough for Alas kans has resulted in the shipment of fourth grade commodities at exces- sive prices. to which are added three monopolistic freight rates This makes the cost of living in Alaska much higher than in the United States
 The Alaska people are more in terested in the development of their own community than in Outside af- fairs. If authoritative information on Alaska could De brought to the attention of American capital pIOuLablE source or AuNESLMeII AUOl1 b.e discovered. The Alaskzns would welcome an invasion of population and capital The experiment al Mat anuska has proven the possibilities to be derived from the soil of Alas ka. The surface is still unscratched-' ?
 People outside of Alaska have lit tie or no information regarding con ditions in Alaska" said Gulbrandsen- Alaska has produced in excess of S400 900. coo in gold, and fishing in dustry produces 30 to 10 million dol lars a year. Notwithstanding that fact. Alaska Is generally considered relatively unimpOrtant. In size 1t IS larger than any seven middle wes- tern states. It Is longer than from the Atlantic coast 10 the Pacific Even the natives of Alaska do not know the extent of the resources to be found in the vast unexplored re gions.
 ''In scenic beauty, Alaska far sur passes anything to be found in Eu- rope, or elsewhere in North Amer lea. Similarity of climate and con tour to the Scandinavian countries has attracted many Scandinavians, who have been instrumental in building up the industries of Alaska. They have built communities which il would be well worth the time Of every American to visit, and profit able to American capital to invest 5Es-

RAIL ROAD WILL EMPLOY 400 MEN
 THIS SUN d E R

Col. o. F. Ohlson, general manager of the Alaska Railroad, announced last Friday that he has been defln- iuely assured at Washington, D. C., that S2,250.000 viii be available for the rehabilitation of the railroad during the next four years
 Work under a comprehensive pro- gram will be started this summer and 400 men will be employel along the rail belt, Colonel Ohlson said. The weather and the date the money becomes available will determine when the program will be lnaugur- aIed.
 Raise In Rates Imperative
 Colonel Ohlson also announced that he was advised at Washington that the operating revenues o1 the line must cover operating eXpendl- lures. For this reason a raise III rates Is made imperative.
 The four-year program will have far-reaching effects in improving the railroad and its service. the manager pointed out
 One of the major items in the list of expenditures to be made from the $2,250, 900 is the replacement Of wooden bridges and restles with steel spans. The largest project of this kind is the Knik River Bridge.
 Other items in the program are the ballasting of the road bed, pur- chase of a new locomotive, new box cars, rehabilitation of section houses.
 Win Construct New Hotel
 The railroad will also construct new hotel at the entrance to Mckin- ley Park. The hotel will provide mod ern and comfortable aecommoda- stions for tourists.
 Relative to freight rates, Colonel t0hlson said the cost of materials, labor and all other items are in- screasing in leaps and bounds. In ad- -iCn. the railroad must meet as an 3l rating expense 9 new item of .'ss3.CjV annually in the provisions fe- ana1al leaves for railroad en- rloyes.
 Because Of the requirement that the operating revenues pay for the operation of the line, freight rates Elast be boosted to provide further ro-erues. Experts are at work ln Szattle revising the tariffs. The rate boost will have no connection with the improvement program.
 IL is expected that the freight raise on general cargo will be about 10 per cent and on mining machin- =Ty and supplies about 20 per cent -e;~ht rates for the transportation

NOBILITY

True worth Is in being. not seeming In doing each day that goes by, Some little gOod-not in dreaming Of great things to do by and by For whatever men say m their
 blindness
 And in spite of the fzncies
 of youth There's nothing so kingly as
 kindness
 And nothing so royal as truth We get hack our mete as we
 measure
 We cannot do wrong and feel
 right, Nor can we give pain and gain
 pleasure.
 For justice avenges each slight. The air for the wing of the sparrox. The bush for the robin and wren, But always the path that is narrow And ztraigh1, for the children
 of men Ne cannot make bargains for blissss, Nor catch them like fishes ID nets; And sometimes the thing our life
 misses Helps more than the thing which

Oddly enough. Manager Charlie Grimm, of the Chicago Cubs, who was mighty fine first -baseman in his day, is having headache finding someone to cover the initial sack in a satisfactory manner.
 A couple of seasons ago the an- swer to his prayers for a first baseman appeared in the form of a high school youngster, one Phil Cavaraetta of Chicago. Grimm glee- fully retired to the dugout.
 It was too good to be true. Cav aretta did fair enough for while, but it was not long before Grimm had to get back into the fray. Last season Grimm was convinced he would have to do something about the first-base situation. Cavaretta would not do. Grimm, with 20 years of service to his credit, was through.
 Paper Pleasure
 A trade was promoted with the St. Louis Cards. Chicago gave up Pitcher Lon Warnecke for First baseman Jimmy (The Ripper Col lins and Wildman Leroy Parmalee After that Grimm sat back to figure how the Cubs would win the Ma tional League pennant. On paper that was easy. Collins would cover first, and at the same time would

 Came spring. And training ses- sions. Grimm installed Collins at first and told Cavarretta to go and chase around the outfield. That's the way things stood until the Cubs broke camp and started the exhi- bition games that lead to Chicago. Collins failed to show any great power at the plate, while the sup posedly weak hitting Cavaretta fairly blasted the cover off the ball and appeared to be covering center field we'll In fact, Phil did so well that he kept Joe Marty, $75,00O rookie outfielder from the San Francisco Seals, on the bench.
 Grimm has given some thought to returning Cavaretta to first un- less Collins produces at the plate.
 Two .Joes,' But Different
 It is evident that Joe Marty is not another Joe Di Maggie At least he's not on what he has shown the Cubs this spring. He earned his chance with Chicago by winning the coast batting crown with .358.
 The big moment of his career to date came in the 1885 playoff for the Pacific Coast league pennant. In the deciding game of the playoff series, two on base, none out, score tied, Marty went up to bat with everyone in the park expecting him to lay down a bunt. On orders from Manager Lefty O'Doul Marty took full cut at the first pitch and belted the ball into the bleach CTS for a home run-and the pen nant.
