AVIATION AN AMAZING INDUSTRY

Aviation is perhaps the most amazing of our younger indus tries. It provides the world with speed, together with safety, com foI,, convenience and economy.
 The present capitalization of sirplane manufacturing in the United States is about $1l5,000,- 900. Production has grown 300 percent in four years. The produc tion of 36,00O Wage-earners, ann ong the best paid in America (they earned $25,000,000) during the past year, was valued at $l65, 100000.
 Aircraft manufacturers buy ma,arials, parts, and instruments from 1000 companies in seventy five industries. One factory alone bays from sixty-eight different firms with 14,4100 employees, Aircraft consumed 100,000,000 gallons of gasoline, 25,000,000 gal Ions of oil last year.
 More than 10000 planes are in civil use by seventy kinds of busi ness organizations. To operate and service them, there are p, 983 pilots and 9,884 mechanics. Nearly 1000 planes were sold for private, commercial and sport use during the past 12 months.
 The growing exports of Ameri can airplane manufacturers is at tributed solely to superiority ot product. Their value was $68,000, GOO last year. Almost every coun try in the world is a customer. Export orders this year are great e. than ever before.

300 SEEK PLANE PASSAGE TO ALASKA

Approximately 300 persons are trying to get passage on the first commercial flight of Pacific Al aska AirWays between Seattle and Ketchikan, Robert o. Bull winkel, PAA traffic manager, said recently. MT. Bullwinkel was in Ketchikan on his way to Juneau and Fairbanks.
 That is because of the pub licity attending the first trip. We don't expect anything like that right along," MT. Bullwinkel ex- plained.
 Although the plane is a 32- passenger ship, it will have few CT passengers because of the ex- tra mail scheduled for the first flight, he expects.
 Before the passenger flight, PAA will have a "shakedown" trip over the route from Seattle to familiarize pilots and officials with he setup, according to pre- sent plans.
 Regarding commencement of the air service he said, We will start in as soon as we get the equipment in.
 A radio station will be install. ed at Peninsula point soon under G. E. Bassett, Ketchikan airport manager.

 If they come this way, we help. To go over there, No"
 Turning to naturalization au- thorities, the Judge observed;
 Here's woman with common sense. Let's give her credit and not make our laws look ridicul- ous."

200 YEARS IN ALASKA
(Juneau Empire)


 Next year will be the 200th anniversary of the Russian dis covery of Alaska. On July 15, TAI, Alexei Chirikoff from the deck of the ship St. Paul sighted the Alaska coast at Prince of Wales Island. The following day Vitus Boring, Danish captain of the Russian expedition in which Chirikoff was second in com mand, sailed his vessel St. Peter in sight of Mount St. Elias which he named. A few days later Ber- ing made a landing on Kayak Is- land. near Controller Bay. He was, as far as history shows, the first white man to set foot on what is now Alaska.
 Alaska should plan an appro- priate celebration of this event. One who had such an idea was the Rev. A. P. Kashevaroff, who passed away April 3. His grand father had come to Russian Am erica in 1920, not so many years after the first explorers. The fam fly has been an Alaskan one ever since. Kashevaroff himself lived 76 years in Alaska, under both the Russian eagle and the Stars and Stripes. His life bridged the historic span from the days of Russian occupation, through the purchase by the United States, through all the long years of official neglect slow growth and development down to the present day of a busy, modern industrial Alaska.
 We may well look back next year over the two eventful cen turies since Bering'S second Ram chatka expedition came in sight of a new land to the east. Father Kashevaroff's idea of a grand Al aSka celebration and festival is good one. Without him to re- cite the history, it will not be quite what it might have been. Bu Alaska should hold it anyway in honor and remembrance of a glorious historical past.
