Old Fapers at The Emplre. “TOASTING" expels SHEEP-DIP BASE naturally (Black, biting, harsh irritant chemicals) present in every tobacco leaf “They’re out- so they can’t be in!” Every LUCKY STRIKE is made of the finest tobacco leaves the world can offer — the finest from Turkey — the finest from Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, Geor- gia and the Carolinas—the Cream of many Crops throughout the world. But all tobacco leaves, regardless of price and kind, as pature produces them, contain harsh irritants. LUCKY STRIKE’S exclusive “TOASTING” Process—a process that mellows, that puri- fies, that includes the use of the modern Ultra Violet Ray—expels certain harsh irri- tants naturally present in every tobacco leaf. We sell these expelled irritants to manu- facturers of chemical compounds, who use them as a base in making sheep-dip*, as well as a powerful spraying solution for fruits, flowers and shrubs —enough to permit the daily dipping of over 50,000 sheep or the daily spraying of many thousands of trees. Thus, you are sure these irri- tants, naturally present in all tobacco leaves, are not in your LUCKY STRIKE. “They’re out—so they can’t be in!”” No wonder LUCKIES are always kind to your throat. *U.

Indians wno ciaim to have right of possession and occupancy in Auk village, about 12 miles north of Juneau, have sent in a petition to the General Land Oifice request- ing that their rights be protected and that leases for these not be given to white applicant: Although this old village is Tongass Forest Reservation it claimed that the rights of the Na- tives are reserved by an Act of Congress entitled, “An Act pro- viding & Civil Government for Alaska, “which ‘Act was approved by the President on May 17, 1884, and which provides: “That the Indians or other persons in said district shall not be disturbed in the possession of any lands actual- ly in their use or occupation or now claimed by them, but the terms under which such persons may acquire title to such land is reserved for future legislation by Congress.” The status of these In- dians is now under consideration by Secretary of Agriculture Hyde and Secretary of the Interior Wil- bur. The Acting Chief, Alaska Div- ision of Indian Affairs, writes to | the Commissioner of Indian Affairs that hereafter when school build- ings for the natives are to be erect- ed he will endeavor to have speci- fications prepared early enough to permit bids for finished lumber, frame work, casings, etc, to be furnished by dealers in Alaska. Lo- cal mills complained that recent- ly the material for nine school buildings was furnished from Se- attle, while Alaska dealers were not given opportunity to submit bids. Mrs. Mary Lee Davis, who lived in Fairbanks several years but is now a resident of Washington, D. C., has just issued another new book that treats of the real folks of the North. It is entitled “We Are Alaskans,” and is full of inti- mate personal close-ups from near- ly one hundred living people in Alaska. The request was made some time ago that Lake Minchuminabe em- braced on the winter mail route be- tween Nenana and Flat. The Post- master General has just notified the Delegate that the Department |had issued an order that this sta- tion be embraced on the route from November 1, 1931, The post- master at Quinhagak has removed his place of residence and the va- cancy will likely be filled by the appointment of Charles B. Michael. A petition has been filed with the Department asking for the reestab- lishment of the post office at Al- atna and the naming of Carl Gus- taf Frank as the postmaster. The reason given for the closing of the foundry in the Alaska Rail- road shops at Anchorage is be- cause of economy and a higher quality of supplies that are secured lands in- | cluded in the boundaries of the| is!

The possibility that with depth ‘Adevelopmem a sufficient ore body | will be developed to warrant a sec- {ond milling plant for the Alaska- | Juneau Mining Co., and that it will Ibe located on the Treadwell prop- erty on Douglas Island, has again|| brought to the front the necessity for a bridge across Gastineau Chan- | nel. The Delegate has been broach- ed on the subject and his answer |is that in his political platform he | declared his interest in this bridge |and promised the people of Doug- ilas and Juneau the support of the | project in Congress. He stands ready to do everything within his power to bring about the desired result, when the interested parties !glve the word to start action. Eastern paper mills are urging | President Hoover to take action to | |halt pending negotiations for the |sale of National Forest timber in !Ah\ska for conversion into pulp |and news print. President Hoover alleged that this additional pro- duction of pulp in Alaska would “thrust” unwarranted production upon an overexpanded industry struggling with a diminished de- mand and vanishing profits. The matter has been referred to the !Interfor and Agricultural Depart- ments, where it is stated that action /by the Government to prevent !development of the industry in |Alaska is not probable at the present time, as the forests are Iripe for cutting and considerable cost is involved in deterioration. It is stated that conditional per- mits for the purchase of two im- portant west coast groups of 10,- 000,000,000 board feet of pulp wood in the Tongass National Forest ,are involved in the negotiations, It is expected that large water power projects near Juneau and Ketchikan would furpish suffi- clent energy to produce between 200 and 500 tons of newsprint each day. There is sufficient tim- ber to keep the plants running 50 years. The promoters of the Alaska development have been tendered a license by the Fedral Powr Com- mission for power projects. Neither has accepted. An improvement in the newsprint market conditions it is expected will govern their acceptance.
