INFORM VISITING HIGH OFFICIALS
Fairbanks News-Miner)


 Worthy of special attention is the fact that not few of the higher administrative and eXecu- tive officials of the federal gov ernment at Washington are visit ing Alaska this summer.
 That they are coming here, viewing the situation and inves- tigating what Alaska has 10 offer and most needs is of real signifi- canoe.
 { is to be regretted that many of them allot but Q day or two to important centers, such as Fairbanks, especially after mak- ing such long and costly trips to the region. IL will be well to get the idea over to them well in advance that their itineraries as far as possible should be ar ranged so as 10 permit spending several days in such centers as Fairbanks.
 Knowing that they cannot tarry here long at the best, it is up 10 local representative bodies to have all the data and information necessary in the premises neatly assembled and set out together with concrete recommendations and appeals.
 Make them 10 the point, concise and clear but complete.

He has vast territory to cover, is keen over the devel- opment of the Territory-and is entirely sympathetic to the de sires of the people of the region to improve their conditions and build fer the future. He will be back in Fairbanks within a few days, seeking more knowledge and information.
 Especially eager is MT. Gruen- ing 10 receive facts and sugges- tions that will help him. He has gone farther and predicted in- creased aviation facilities in the Territory within two years with federal aid.
 If Uncle Sam will aid in the aviation program of Alaska he will be doing marvellous fun damental work on behalf of the development of the Territory. But that is far from all that MT. Gruening contemplates on be- half of the Territory.
 Secretary of the Interior liar old L. Ickes, highest ranking ad- n1inlstrative official, is now in Fairbanks. There are numerous things that can be laid before him which deserve his attention, and since his arrival, they will doubt less receive studied and construc tive attention.

Says Husbands
Affairs His

LOS ANGELES, Calf, Sept. 30.
A claim for $754,234 for income
taxes and interest against the es-
tate of the late Irving Thalberg,
Hollywood producer, brought from
Norma Shearer, his actress wife,
the contention today there was
no relationship between her bust
ness affairs and those of Thalberg.
Miss Shearer, whose screen
portrayals have given her inter-
national prominence, insisted at
a hearing on the Governments
suit that Thalberg never inter
mingled his income or professional
affairs with hers. She and her
husband, Miss Shearer contended,
always maintained complete
financial independence.
The Bureau of Internal Rev.
enue fled the claim against Thai
berg'S estate. Basis of the suit
was the directors earnings for
the years from 1892 to 1896.
