 "On the whole" said the Com mander, the purpose of the sur veys is to procure detailed infor- nation of all sorts to make navl- gators charts. We do not draw up the charts ourselves, but merely obtain the information for per- manent records in the Washing ton office"
 When asked about any unusual experiences aboard a survey yes sel, Commander Schoppe replied If you mean adventure, it never happens. Adventure happens only to ill advised and poorly organized expeditions. Any damn fool can find adventure if he ventures out in half equipped sail boat and is willing to risk life life" He said that he hoped that no adventure would befall the Surveyor
 Two Others in Area
 Two other Survey vessels are in Southeast Alaska at this time. They are the motorvessel Westdahl, out of Hoonah, and the E. Lester Jones out of Sitka. The E. Lester Jones will soon be leaving for Dutch liar bor.
 Its survey of the outside coast is expected to complete the Lituya Bay -Yakutat sector this summer with the work to be carried as far as Cape St. Elias in future years. This years northern assign ment will be completed about the first of october, Captain Schoppe said
 ] The outside coast has never been surveyed in detail.
 Latest Equipment
 Aboard the Surveyor is the lat est in equipment, including a new Dorsey fathometer and radio-ac- coustic ranging instruments which control the ships position by meas uring the time it takes sound tc travel in sea water.
 The Surveyor will work this voy- age in cooperation with the h. ternational Boundary Commission whose representative, Jesse Hill ol Washington, is aboard to take tri. anguations as far as Dry Bay working both from the Surveyor and the shore.

 Continues Work
 The impending surveys of the Lituya area is continuation of work started in 1921 and tempor- arily stopped in 1926. explained the Commander. For the last six years the Surveyor has been working in the area around the tip of the Aleutians and was using Dutch Harbor as base. The work left unfinished by the transferred Sur veyor will be continued by the new Geodetic Survey vessel, the EX- plorer. which will take the Sur veyor's place about May 1 in the group of four boats working out of Dutch Harbor. Boats now sta- toned in the Dutch Harbor area are the Explorer, Guide. Discov- erer. and the Pioneer.
 Details Obtained
 Control surveys consisting of tri- angulation or traverse material IS the purpose of the work done by the survey, according to Comman- der Schoppe.
 we obtain the typographical de- tails of the hills and valleys ad- jacent to the coast line, survey the water areas for depths and hidden navigation dangers, and obtain a complete survey of the area being worked for a distance as far off shore as the 1,000-fathom depth line"

How Localities Differ.

Another thing: | found most of the
peSSimiSm in large cities where the
taxes are very high and the growth
small. In fact. d study OF the new
census figures shows that the popu
lation of many of these large cities
has actually decreased during
the past ten years although the pop
ulatiOn Of the country as whole
has increased about ten million. This
has caused certain cities like San
Francisco. which has lost thousands
because Of the c. |. O. labor strikes,
10 demand recOuntS.
Yet. the smaller cities, from 10000
10 $4,000, have shown good gains. |
also found that the business leaders
and wage workers Of the small COM
munities are usually optimistic. Lead
by their loyal local papers, they all
arc community-minded Knowing
one another, they naturally Coop
crate. A cooperative community
must go ahead both materially and
spiritually And in the long run these
two aims must 60 tOgether-one is
the lock, the other the key: one is
tho Ratchet, the other the hand.
Conclusion.
What does all this mean? To me
it means that while we are drafting
young men for war, we also need
them for industry and commerce:
that we should sell out the old in
duStries and invest in the new: that
we should consider the advantages
OF the small community when being
tempted by the bright lights Of the
big cities. The great drag upon bust
ness today is that the pessimists, who
arc old men engaged in declining in
dustries and who are doing business
