JOHN A HULL, FOUND AFTER 65 DAYS ALONE

John A. Hull of Teller, who has been missing for 65 days, was found by four native boys in the reindeer cabin at the mouth of the American river.
 Hull suffered a heart attack while doing assessment work on his mining property on Million creek on July l. He has been sick since that time and tried to walk to Teller but had to give up after the first 25 miles, when he reach ed the cabin on American creek
 He had been there since July 27, unable to get out of bed most of the time and living on oatmeal and flour, left in the cabin by natives last winter. At one time he was unable to get cut of bed for 10 days so ate the oatmeal raw. He could get up to cook and for water only about every four days.
 He had not seen anyone since June IS when he was flown to his claim by Wien Airlines. He says he saw many reindeer and wolves but was not able to shoot them.
 He did not know what month or day it was and was very anx- ious to know about the war.
 Pilot Whaley made special trip late Thursday after word was received that Hull had been found and flew him from the cabin to Teller. A small field had been staked out by the native boys about three-quarters of a mile from the cabin

Brig. Cen. Ladd TO Command
 E't. Richardson


 Brig. Gen. Jesse A. Ladd, for ner commander of the 18th h. fsntry at Fort Lewis, arrived in Anchorage recent y and took com mSnd of Fort Richardson and be came second ranking officer of the Alaska Defense Command.
 In taking charge at the Fort, General Ladd relieved Col. John H. Hood of the duties of com manding officer, allowing him to devote his full time to command ing his regiment. Colonel Hood has been doing double duty of both post and regimental com mander.
 The new commander of Fort Richardson will celebrate his 54th birthday shortly, for he was born on Sept. 21, 1887 in Ohio.
 He attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, and on June 13, 1911, graduated and was commissioned a second lieutenant
 On July 1, 1916, General Ladd was made a first lieutenant and on the following May 15 was ad- vanced to captain.
 On June 22, 1918, he was as- signed to office of the inspector general where he served until Sept. 8, 1920, meanwhile being made a major on July 1 of that year.
 In 1926, General Ladd was a distinguished graduate of the Command and General Staff School, after having graduated from the Infantry School field officers course in 1921. In 1881 he also graduated from the Tank School.
 On Aug. 1, 1885, the new Fort Richardson commander w S made a lieutenant-colonel and in 1888 graduated from the Army War College.
 He received his commission as a full colonel on May 1 last year and was commissioned brigadier general a month ago.
 General Ladds most highly pub licized activity was the taking over of the North American Air craft Company's Glendale plant when his men were ordered to take command of the situation as defense production of the plant was jeopardized by strike.
