MEMBLR The Assoc »ress s exclusively entitled to the use for republication of all news dispatches credited tc it or not herwise credited in this paper and also the focal news published herein ALASKA'S NEW TREASURE. The prospect of a greater in the near future through the utilization of the timbered resources of Southeast Alaska for pulp and paper is attracting attention throughout the country. The Seattle Times, which once published with avid- ity the propaganda of Puget Sound timbermen who | would have delayed the opening of Alaska’s pulp! and paper possibilities until after those of Wash- ington and Oregon had been developed to their ca- pacity, now accepts as assured the establishment of a pulp and paper industry in the North that may become more important than her great fishing and mineral industries The Times, under the Treasu recently said: With the establishment in the near future of paper pulp enterprises in Southeastern Alaska, as the result of recent surveys of timber and water power resources, the North- ern Territory is on the threshold of a new industrial development promising returns that in time n exceed in value her min- eral and fishery riches. According to a report issued by the Na- tional Forest Service, about 23,000,000 acres in the Southeastern part of the Territory are in Federal reserves. This area, heavily timbered with spruce and hemlock, which are especially desirable in the making of paper pulp, is figured to yield 1,500,000 cords of wood annually in perpetuity, if conserva- tion principles are applied to cutting and reproduction The wealth _of Uus resource. may be realized by ruflccung ‘that when' it is “de- veloped to its full worth it will represent an output of 1,000,000 tons of news print, or more than one-quarter of the present consumption in the United States. Abundance and availability of water pow- er will keep mill and factory operation expenses at low averages, and facility of water transportation for both raw and fin- ished materials will prove a further econ- omic advantage. While pulp and paper will- be the chief commodities, other products will be added in time, and besides the principal industry there will be numerous associate and sub- heading, “Alaska's New By Tkeir Newspapers Ye Shall Know Them VERY they go hand in hand. “The newspaper is the window through which the world may look and learn of its advantages, attractions, ambitions, and accomplishments. “A bright, snappy munity confidence in itself * * * * and keeps its eyes and thoughts on the indiv idually and collectively. “A newspaper is a public service institution on a par with the church and the school if it is Its service cannot be meas- properly functioning. ured in dollars and cents “The newspaper is the index for the town * *, “In short, a live town supports a live paper, cannot expect to have a live but a dc ad town paper.” The Paily Alaska Alaskan development | live town needs every newspaper needs This is the editor tells of this interdependence: and for Your Home Community . . .

Sometime, perhaps, a final decision will be made |in the damage suits growing out of the Princess |Sophia wreck, which occurred ten years ago last !rall The litigation has been pending for six or seven years or more and one side or the other wins a decision on an average of once every year or two. The latest decision in Seattle by the Com- missioner who took the testimony was against the Canadian Pacific. But the importance of the vic-| tory for the claimants begins to dim the moment that one takes into account that the United States District Court must review the testimony taken and the opinion rendered by Commissioner Bowman. And after the District Court comes the United States Circuit Court of Appeals and then the United States Supreme Court. The litigation has been pending for a half dozen years and it is a long way from being passed the first court (the trial court) yet. At least two more courts are to come. | MAY GE | English politicians estimate that at least one- third of the sixty-four women who are running for ;nw Parliament will be successful in the| coming election. There are now nine women mem- bers of Parliament—one more than are members of the American Congress.

He has never fully | recovered from his gun-shot wound. Those baseball games that are being won and lost with such nonchalance will figure in the per- centages next fall and cause a lot of anxiety to managers and fans. % An Ent [ (By Pat O'Cotter in Alaska Weekly.) A man could leave Seattle on Saturday noon, say along in August, fly to a place I know in the Cassiar, Glacier Lake, and get in there Saturday night. He could have a try at moose or sheep or |goats on Sunday and get back to Seattle in plenty lof time to go to work Monday morning. Or he |could fly in there, have the plane leave him on the (grounds, have his hunt and have the machine |call for him a week later and bring him back with {his trophies. | It's mavelous. We of Seattle are the most | fortunate people in the world. Here we are living {right on the edge of the most wonderful play \mound in the world. The best fishing, the finest |hunting and the greatest scenery and climate that lyou can find any place and heretofore, the only idrawback has been the time it takes to get to it. !A man with a limited vacation could not afford ito spend two thirds of his time getting to where he could enjoy himself, no matter how fine a trip he might have. Now comes the airplane and does away with {time and wipes distance off the map. Alaska is no farther away from Second Avenue than Lake Wash- ington used to be. It's just a few hours hop from Ihere and in the future, tourists, fishermen, game hunters,. as well as business men are going to fly and save time. Of course, we can't tell just how long it will be before Uncle Sam will take a chance and give Alaska an Air Mail service. They still seem to [think back at Washington that anything in the way {of mail service is good enough for the North. A I‘wvokly mail boat is all right, but a daily flying service would put Juneau as close to Seattle as | Bellingham actually is, and that would be well worthwhile for Seattle. Might be good plan if Seattle would get behind |Alaska in their request for a mail service of this |kind. It would mean a lot in the way of tourist |travel advertising, and comes under the head of ‘real serivce to the Empire of the North. a live a live newspaper and town.

Money may not buy happiness, still poverty sweetens marriage as vinegar does water, and hatred does a disposition. The rich can afford both children and automobiles, but it's only the poor, who can't afford either, that have both. It's a tough old world.
