ALASKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER THAN THAT OF ANY. OTHER PUBLICATION SUPPORT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. There should be an immediate and liberal re- sponse to the Chamber of Commerce drive for funds. The Chamber has set $5,000 as the amount it will need. It will require that much money to finance the anticipated activities for the year. However, if more than that amount should be raised it will not be wasted. The Chamber of Commerce does not waste money. It makes every cent that it collects work for the best interests of the community The work that has been done by in the past is a guaranty that it will make the best possible use of the money that comes into its hands. If further guaranty were needed it is furn- ished by the personnel of the officers, the Execu- tive Committee and the more than two hundred members of the Chamber itself. The Chamber of Commerce has done invaluable work for Juneau. The community cannot afford to permit any let up in the service. In fact the time is at hand when the fruits of much that has been done will be harvested—provided the good work continues. Never before did the future promise better results from community effort. ___ |produced " lto get the spotlight again _ (erally |legal or moral, the Chamber | Amendment. to outside markets.

For it is not often that a public interested in prohibi-| tion has a chance to read anything about it so| direct, so free from claptrap and, despite its frank partisanship, so Intellectually honest. | The central- point of Mr. Ritchie's speech was a denial of 'the theory that any obligation, either | rests upon the States to enact local | laws in support of the Eighteenth | Other men have discussed this the- ory, but nowhere have we read a more concise nnd: persuasive exposition of the point than in Mr.! | Ritchie’s speceh at Boston.

This statement was made by the Biological | Survey of the United States Department of Agn-' i 7 culture, which maintains a reindeer experiment station near Fairbanks, where it conducts studies| for the improvement of the reindeer industry. \ In 1925, ten young caribou bulls were transported down the Yukon River from Kokrines, Alaska, to Mr. Coolidge for the Senate.

The possibility of improving the grade and weight of the reindeer in Alaskan herds by cross- ing them with the caribou was suggested to the biologists of the survey not only by the fact that the average dressed weight of reindeer carcasses is about 150 pounds, while that of many of the larger native caribou bulls is well over 300 pounds, but also by the close biological relationship between the ‘two species, both belonging to the same genus of The reindeer industry in Alaska is of growing economic importance, the Biological Survey states, Friends of Mexico's new Presidnt, who has just been elected by 1,500,000 votes against 12,000 votes, are said to be demanding a recount.
