Nome Soon Be But 33 Hours From N. Y

Cities throughout the United States and the Americas will be placed only hours away from once remote Alaskan points thru connections of domestic airlines in the United States with the pro jected service of Pacific Alaska AirWays between Seattle, Ketchi kan and Juneau, it was disclosed today in bulletin issued by Unit ed Air Lines.
 AS examples of the new speed to be given to and from the north ern territory, flying time from Nome to San Francisco will be approximately 20 hours; to Los Angeles, g hours; to Chicago, 29 hours and to New York, 33 hours.
 Plans of Pacific Alaska, subsid- iary of Pan American Airways, call for two round trips a week between Seattle, Ketchikan and Juneau, starting around the mid dle of June. At Seattle, passen- gers mail and express will make close connections with United Air Lines day and sleeper planes 1 flying on regular schedule to California, the Midwest and East. The new Alaska service will give United its fourth connection with Pan American Airways' schedul- es, since the company's Mainlin- CTS already link up with Pan Am erican's Clippers flying the Pac fife from Alameda, California, to Hongkong; it's Clippers flying the Atlantic from New York City to Europe and it's land transports flying from Los Angeles to Mex ico, Central America and South America.
 Harold Crary of Chicago, vice president in charge of traffic for United, commented on the fact that the connecting services be- tween Alaska and the United States not only will vastly speed up travel from the territory to cities throughout the United Stat es but also should result in a substantial increase in travel from the United States to Alaska.
 "Without any airplane services between the United States and Alaska, we have noticed a stead fly increasing steamer-plane busl ness through both Seattle and Vancouver" the official said. Now, with airplanes flying from Seattle to Nome, via connecting schedules, in 15 hours, travel to and from the territory should be stimulated enormously"

visits to only few cities.

he will maintain his duty-first

the exception of Seminoles and
the soldiers who were stationed
at Fort Dallas, the population of
Dade was less than 100.
The soldiers couldn't vote in
Dade because they had been in
Fort Dallas less than two months
before the election, and they
went there from Key West be-
cause of a yellow-fever scare

Bell left Pennington some time
last December. 1t was said he
was subject to epileptic attacks.
The date of leaving Farming
ton, Hamlin points out, would
have enabled Bell to reach Key
West before the body was found
However, the Lakeland police
have not submitted a report
whether Bell is still there or is
missing.
When found it was apparent
the body had been in the Roose-
welt pool for some time. Hands
and feet of the man were tied
with cord, while a small stone
had been fastened to the body
by the mans belt. 1t was be-
lieved by local officials that the
man could have tied himself.
For some time it was believed
the man was that of a soldier
serving at Key West Barracks,
but this theory was disproved
when the man in question ap-
peared to deny the report.
Hamlin later sent complete
descriptions of the body, the
laundry marks, and other infor-
nation all over the country. He
sent one of his letters to Detroit
because a Scotch purse which
seemingly was bought along the
Canadian border was found on
the body.

NAVY NOTES
LAST SATURDAY, I wrote
BY BYRD

LAST SATURDAY / wrote a
few items for this column, prid-
ing myself in the fact that I did
have something for the day and
that the column had only missed
appearing twice during the
week. I believe that that column
was never destined to be printed.
Our Special Courier" service
broke down and the result was
another week with only a few
days to the credit side for the
column. Last Wednesday it just
did manage to struggle into print.
/ have been asked why there
wasn't more news or a larger
column. There are a few reasons
for that. One perfectly good rea-
son is that I haven't the time to
be chasing news items. /, too,
have work to do. Previously
asked that any items you might
have be sent in to me for inclu-
sion in this column. To date only
one person has sent in anything
for the column. The remainder
of what has been printed is what
/ have been able to gather here
and there during working hours.
So far this week the cloumn
didn't appear on Monday or Tues
day. The reason for that is that
the U.S.S. Lea put out to sea and
where the Lea goes l usually CD
have to go, too. ''|2 .
Confidentially, if this column
should grow and become worth
while, I am going to ask the edi-
tor for free copy of The Citi-
zen, but so far it has been so
skinny that / have been asham-
ed to do that.
Much to everyone's surprise
the Destroyer Lea was at sea for
a few days last week. And again
Monday she went out and re-
turned yesterday afternoon. We
all thought that the LEAFS job was
to hold the docks at the Station
from drifting away. It seems
that the engines were just a trifle
worn from disuse and needed a
little exercise to timber them up
so the Listing" Lea had little
sea duty.
