International Viewpoint “The fact that members of your association have made heavy in- vestments in timber and mills in other countries for the manufacture of paper to be consumed in the United States naturally tends .to create an international viewpoint vith reference to the present ques- tion. Your correspondence has rath- er minimized the fact that under present conditions the markets for timber and woods labor created by the demand for newsprint in this country is enjoyed by other coun- tries and their citizens to a great- cr degree than by this country and its citizens. You have laid major emphasis upon the prcbable di: turbance of that part of the indus- try which involves manufacturing activities in this country. As a matter of equity, not only to Alas- ka but to the nation as an entity, I must consider economic policies in the light of domestic needs and broad national welfare. Based on Present Conditions “Your proposal is premised upon existing conditions. But even though final awards of timber sale. and power privileges were made immediately it probably would be five years before any appreciable quantity of newsprint from Alaska appeared on the market. Mills, power plants, transportation sys-'| tems, logging improvements, etc., would all have to be established under rather adverse conditions. Probably a great deal of pioneer work would be necessary before large scale production was attained. Tt is wholly conceivable that by the time the Alaska newsprint is available its production will be fully justified by the then existing economic situation. “In other industrial fields the School Coats Children’s Chelsico dark tan coats 'Just Received $6.95 Sizes 4 to 14 years “Juneau’s Own Store” GRETA -GARBO T(l END RUN IN ‘INSPIRATION’ “Desert Vengeance” with Buck Jones Will Be At- traction Friday Night With “Inspiration,” starring Gre- ta Garbo, showing for the last times tonight, “Desert Vengeance’ with Buck Jones in the leading role, will be the headline attrac- tion tomorrow night at the Capi- |tol theatre. In “Inspration,” creations, exquisite toilettes and |lavish surroundings, Miss Garbo |goes to threadbare costumes, un- kemptness and squalor. The change is not a gradual one but comes with a dramatic sudden- ness as the central plot of the story reaches its crucial point. “Desert Vengeance” “Desert Vengeance” is a human interest yarn set against the col- orful background of the pioneer | west, spiced with the atmosphere of romance, and alive with strong situations. The story revolves around the ac- tivities of two rival gangs of ban- | dits—one headed by the reprehen- sible but lovable Jim Cardew. Par- son Smith, an old minister, has a genuine affection for the dashing bandit. And Jim Cardew falls in {love with an adventuress. Situation Provides Thrills This situation provides thrills and an unexpected but satisfying denouement. Buck Jones not only contributes exhibitions of horsemanship in this picture, but gives a good charac- terization of the daredevil Cardew. Barbara Bedford makes a lovely vis-a-vis for the bandit hero. Al Smith Slim Whitaker and Buck Conner are others in the cast. Lou- is King directed. from gorgeous tendency is to create conditions | favorable to American labor, capi- tal and natural resources. Alaska has not requested such action in relation to its forest resources but has merely sought an opportunity to promote their development on terms of equality with other re- gions and countries. Acceptance of your proposal would mean a de- nial to Alaska of such an oppor- tunity. The representations made do not, in my judgment, warrant such action.” — e HIGH SCHOOL'S TEACHERS MEET BUSINESS MEN Pedagogues Greeted and Unemployment Discussed at Chamber Luncheon (Continuez from Page One) teachers were guests of the Cham- ber. Miss Kelly Absent Mr. Raven noted the absence of Blanche Kelly, foreign language teacher in the high school. He re- marked that she had spent her summer vacation in France and that she had devoted part of the time to going to school in Paris. He had hoped she would be present to tell of her sojourn abroad. He was asked by Winn Goddard, act- ing president of the Chamber, to urge her to attend next week's luncheon. Report on Unemployment ‘The report on unemployment was submitted by H. L. Faulkner, chair- man of the Chamber’s unemploy- ment committee. He reviewed the committee’s conference with the City Council, told of the appoint- ment by the Mayor of an employ- ment agent and reminded all bus- iness men to communicate with the agent when they wanted any sort of labor. Mr. Faulkner paid a tribute to the American Legion for its work in registering persons out of em- ployment and in classifying their needs and capabilities.
