Johnson, a travelling salesman for
many years, said seasoned tourists

"The old-time salesman had to
know all the angles" Johnson said.
"a bad fire was always a real dan
ger in the days when most country
hotels were made of wood"
Part of Johnson's luggage when
he was on the road was a rope long

Byrd Finds Lille America Has
Moved Four Miles Since 1929

LITTLE AMERICA.-A Mariner
plane of the western task group has
discovered a new bay in an explora-
tory flight over the Knox coast area
of WITHSTAND, Rear-Adm. Richard
E. Byrd announced.
The bay, 200 miles wide east to
west and 60 miles deep north to
south, was mapped during a flight,
Byrd told reporters.
The western group also dis
covered that there is a peninsula
west of Adele coast, where earlier
maps had shown a bay, Byrd said.
The admiral displayed a map of the
Bay of Whales and the Little Amer
lea area, prepared by DR.. Paul
Siple, showing that the first Little
America had moved Az miles west
ward since 1929.
The entrance to the Bay of
Whales is now only 9O4 feet wide,
Byrd said, and Siple estimated that
the bay walls are closing in at a
rate of 4A feet per day. The latter
measurement vas made at a point
along the tractor trail between the
bay water and tent town.

Gloucester Is in First Place
In Nations Fishing Industry

GLOUCESTER, MASS.-This 323-
year-old picturesque port on the
shores of granite-strewn Cape Ann
paced the nations fishing industry
in 1916 for the fourth successive
year.
Total fresh fish unloaded here in
4,507 trips by 265 vessels was 2O7,-
390,00 pounds, only 2 per cent less
than the all-time record set by this
city's fishermen in 1915.
Gloucester easily bested Boston,
which reported catches totaling 1885,
GA, 900 pounds.
Reddish was king here with a new
high of 1875, 391 1000 pounds that over
loaded freezers and resulted in a
warning to fisherfolk to stop catch
ing that variety until some of the
backlog can be sold.
The industry paid out some four
teen million dollars to $500 fisher
man and wharf workers.

Alaska Offers Land
To More Families
Matanuska Project Is Suggested
Near Anchorage.

WASHINGTON.-At least $40 new
farm families could make a 60 of il
fright now" in Alaska, bureau Of
land management estimates.
Almost half of them-310 fami-
lies-could establish a sort of little
Matanuska project on Kenai PENN
sula, southwest of Anchorage, the
bureau reported.
simultaneously, the bureau of
mines estimated that Alaska had
added two billion dollars to national
wealth in 30 years as a United
States possession, and still con-
tanned vast unexpected resources.
Oscar L. Chapman, acting secre-
tary of the interior, said that Alas
ka's mineral resources were suffi-
GENTLY varied to form the basis for
a much more general industrializa-
ton than had yet taken place.
The land management bureau, in
a listing of Alaskan areas suitable
for agricultural settlement, said
that Alaska had less than $50 farms.
The bureau estimated that the $40
proposed new families would have
reasonable expectation of estab-
fishing successful farm enterprises"
in specified localities. 1t said that
$40 was a conservative minimum"
which under favorable conditions in
several areas might be doubled,
and added:
Assuming that each new farm
family would cultivate the mini
mum acreage required by the
homestead law-20 acres of each
100 acre tract-a total of IL, 300 adj
'ditional acres would be brought into
production.
This would mean at least a dou-
bling of the present cultivated acre
age, reported to be about II, 1000
acres, of which less than $500 acres
were harvested"
Of 80 families which the report
estimated could be established on
Kenai peninsula farms, 100 would
settle in the vicinity of Homer, 100.
at Kenai, rs at Kasilof, 20 at Ninil- |
chik and Is in the Anchor Point
area. The report said ''there is
much more good agricultural land"
on Kenai peninsula.
Other proposed settlement areas
include Matanuska valley, rs fami-
lies; Tanana valley, except the up
per part; Kodiak island and south
eastern Alaska.

Atomic Ray Preserves Food
In MiIIionth of a Second

WASHINGTON. - Two scientists
reported the development of a new
radiation method which preserves
foods in one-millionth of a second.
The two are Drs. Arno Brasch
and Wolfgang Huber of the re-
search staff of Electronized Chemi-
Gals corporation, New York.
Most rays, including X-rays.
sterilize and preserve, but have
damaging effects upon materials.
They said they bombarded It's
sues, foods and microbes with cleo
irons, the negatively charged par
ticles of atoms.
Foods were preserved "in their
fresh, raw state" in one millionth
Of a second, without becoming
radioactive. Steaks, eggs and sea-
food kept perfectly for IL days at
high temperatures after being
treated.
Cancers were eliminated" in
rabbits.
Contaminated blood p a s m a,
whole blood, diphtheria antitoxin,
penicillin powder, fluid milk and

Uncle Sam Says

How many of your New Years
resolutions are unbrOken? Some
you made in jest. Others represent
a serious effort, such as a thrift
plan. You may have resolved to
step up your savings bonds allOt-
ment through the Payroll Savings
Plan, or you may have resolved to
ask your bank to buy a savings
bond for you every month out of
your deposited funds. You can't af-
ford not to keep this resolution for
your own good. Even an $18.75 in
vestment once a month in a SIS saw
ings bond will provide you with a
$4,000 nestegg in ten years.
