Juneau’s proposed pulp and paper mills advanced another step Saturday when Mr. Cameron filed his application for a license to develop hydro-electric ] plants in this v y that will produce 81,000 i horsepower and involve the expenditure of $4,000,- | i 000 for power alone. The Federal Power Cumxmsilun; will check up the data upon which the application | is based, and early action is promised. When lhil‘ is granted, as it probably will be, we may expect| to see actual development begin, and when it begins it will be continued until we shall have mills in cperation. That will mean the expenditure of $20,- 000,000 or more before it is stopped, and then will| come operation that will give employment directly and indirectly to 2,000 or 3,000 men. The establishment of pulp and paper mills will mark the beginning of population growth for Ju- neau on a large scale. The town of Port Angeles, ‘Washington, has gained about 400 per cent. in population since the beginning of its pulp and! | paper development a dozen years or so ago. Like improvement here would make a real city of Juneau within the next dozen years.

The purpose is to| |study available routes and waterways from Miami to Buenos Aires, including channels in the Orinoco | {and Amazon deltas. Of the latter, little is known. |They have been only roughly mapped. The Spanish Main will become one of the great airways of ther world. Historically and commercially, the West | wIndnn archipelago from Cuba to Trinidad is asso- (med with the Spanish Main. All down the east| |coast of South America ports are strung that serve| the interior, and flying boats have already begun to call with light freight and passengers. | The New York and Buenos Aires line makes a trip on a regular schedule each way every week As the people of the United States and of South America become more airminded, the service will have to be expanded. The enterprise of the Na- tional Geographic Society is therefore of great {value. Almost every island of the West Indies on| a trade route will be visited; stops will be made at Georgetown, Paramaribo and Cayenne in the n Air Survey. coasts of Venezuela and Brazil, and southward tu‘ Montevideo, and Buenos Aires.

It has been con- ceded ever since the retirement of J. D.
