ANOTHER STEP IN PROGRESS

The Juneau-Seattle air mail route appears to be coming much sooner than was anticipated News dispatches to The Empire reveal that experimental flights preliminary to establishing of regular year around air mail and passenger service by Pan Amerl can Airways parent company of Pacific Alaska Air ways will be maugurated August G. big 10-ton Sikorsky amphibian will be used in the trial hops with crew of five flying the outside route to avoid international complications entailed in passing over Canada In other words, the planes will fly from Standpoint naval air station in Seattle skirt the outside of Vancouver Island, swing over Charlotte Sound and up through Heceta Strait to Dixon En- trance and Ketchkan thence to Juneau Here the mail and passenger connection will be made With PA going to Whitehorse and Fairbanks
 The amphbian or "baby clipper to be used on the route will be flown to Seattle in few days from Miami Fla and shortly we will be seeing 1t in Juneau Later the announced plan is to put giant four-motored land planes on the run but that equip ment must await the day of adequate landing fields in Alaska At the present time, there is no field in the Territory capable of handling such huge equipment aviation engineers say. Again the need for adequate municipal airports in Alaska cities is emphasized particularly at the moment in Juneau and Ketchikan.
 But the air mail from the States is on the way, eliminating next to the last barrier of isolation the last of course. being highway connection. Last year Alaska got direct telephone connection with the Out side This year is getting air mail and regular pas senger service The highway isn't many years away.

amount of food for the trout. Thus the importance of the experiment the part of the Forest Service can readily be seen If it proves successful to take fish in one lake under the method now being tried and hopped to another by airplane for ranspanting the supply can always be maintained, and fishing be spread out to the dozens of barren lakes to be found in the island group. In fact it is not un- likely that the idea could be carried out all the Territory fish from the Southeast being flown to unpopulated lakes of the Interior as the Forest Service now proposes, and vice versa
 One of the many attractions to be found in Alaska is fishing Countless travellers coming here with little time to spare ask, where go fish ing?" AS the more popular lakes and streams are worked over there bound to be depletion in the supply unless steps are taken to keep the fishing places stocked and the now barren lakes planted to create inducements for the anglers
 The Forest Service has undertaken worthwhile project which should have the full cooperation of all other agencies and the sportsmen of Alaska.

Magellan to Hughes
Cleveland Plain Dealerl

Cleveland Plain Deaer)
 Four hundred years ago ic took Ferdinand Magel- an's fleet 1083 days to go around the world Since then the earth has been constantly shrinking Last week it down to three days, nineteen hours and seventeen minutes. Howard Hughes and his four companions have perhaps accomplished as much for the twentieth century Magellan and his frightened and mutinous crew did for the sixteenth
 When Hughes left Floyd Bennett Airport New York, Sunday evening he hoped to make his trip in six days, thus bettering the record of seven days eighteen hours and 49 minutes achieved by Wiley Post 1883 As it is he made it in less than half of Posts time although his route TIP miles shorter than Posts itinerary
 Hughes flight was one of surprises and daring At every stop he ahead of schedule He pushed on without resting, except for few hours in Paris when the plane required repairs. His sudden ap- pearance at Minneapolis, entirely unexpected after a flight of 2,456 miles from Fairbanks, Alaska in twelve hours and minute is typical of his mode of operating
 It is little wonder that in four days he has become a hero and that New York has again shown it's small-town proclivty for celebrations. There has been romance associated with this trip from the be- ginning. and the world jaded by superfuiy of ocean flyers and distance seekers finds thrill in the efficient and breath-taking expedition
 There is a certain satisfaction in knowing that man can go around the world in short time In practical terms is tested the newest developments in aerial engineering and thereby benefits those who are working toward the establishment of commercial intercontnental air routes But such speed is not necessary for commercial purposes The strain the men great Asked if he would do it again Hughes delivers emphatic, "Never!" But it has been done and in doing it he has bazed the trail for others With Lindberghs time to Paris cut in half with Posts world time haved, it be said of Hughes without being dsparaging that he is man who does things by halves and wins acclaim for it.

INCREASING ALASKA'S FISHING LURE

An excellent piece of work aimed toward not only keeping Southeast Alaska great recreation region but to make it of attraction to visitor and local resident alike has been undertaken by the U S. Forest Service in its experiments of planting barren lakes of this with trout. With the consent of the Bureau of Fisheries, which has supervision over fish in the Territory the Forest Service has been talk ing rainbows Little Port Walter and planting them in series of lakes Baranof and Chichagof islands where trout have been known to exist before. Thanks to the arpane, the transplanting has been effected in short time and incidentally this mode of travel of the major factors in making the experiment possible. Once the fish were caught, it possible to plant 12 lakes in day with the of a plane. the fish thus having to be kept in containers but short time and in better con- dition
 It is a significant fact officials have found that the lakes which do have fish in this not heavily stocked. It would be easy to deplete the supply due to the fact that there is only limited

WEDNESDAY,, JULY 27 1888
 This is rather an uncertain day in planetary direction, according to astrology. It is promising to trade relations with foreign countries and encourages new commercial chan nels.
 There is an aspect conducive to conflict of opinions and aims. Quarrels and hostile gestures among members of business organizations and government departments may occur.
 Astrologers advise care in study ing ones own faults and short comings before attacking the char acters of other persons. The, sway is threatening to domestic peace.
 Growth of individualism will be evident under this configuration, which may stimulate the youth movement in wrong directions.
 Storms imperiling those who travel on the water are prognosti- cated Electrical phenomena are presaged as part of the summers weather program.
 New national leaders are fore seen, but those who gain chief sup port may be little known in con- temporary history. The early bird in politics is not likely to catch the election worm
 Increased cost of living is fore cast for Australia. New Zealand continues under benefic aspects.
 Sanitary precautions are urged in view of a prognostication that there may be an autumn epidemic Increase of maladies of the diges- tive system also is indicated.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of changes in business and social environment which may be fortunate. Profit through armaments is presaged for certain men.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be experts in detail and successful in scientific professions Subjects of this sign usually are industrious and successful
 Hilaire Belloc, noted Frenc h statesman, was born on this day 1870 Others who have celebra ted it as a birthday include Harrison Fisher, artist, 1877; Eben Norton Horsford, American chemist, 1913.
