THE EMPIRE PHONE 374 ] | | To survey conditions in connec- tion with the sunken treasure ship Islander, which lies on the bottom of the sea off the southern end of Douglas Island, Frank Curtis, cf the Curtis-Wiley Marine Salvors Company, has come from Seattle! and for the next two weeks or a' month will make his headquarters in Juneau. He arrived here last night on the steamship Admiral Evans. | | Will Begin in March | “We shall not rencw salvage operators until next spring—prob- ably March,” sald Mr. Curtis to- day. the best of equipment to lift the submerged vessel and to float her ashore. The equipment will not be ready for several months. Besides' weather conditions will not be fav-, orable, until spring. I am con. 1 fident the wreck can be raised. | My present mission is to nscertnln how the task can bs accomplished in the quickest and the chenpeat | way.” | Mr. Curtis is an expert at the salvage business. Last year at Nome he moved the huge dredge' {of the Hammon Consolidated Gold | Company. | | Established Record | ! It was the first time in the his-| tory of Alaska or of the Pacific Northwest States that such a largs' |dredge had been moved intact. J.

They ay remain here until the begin- ning of salvage operations in the " epring. | LAKE SHORE LINE | BENDS AGAIN FOR | | CHICAGO TRAFFIC, i CHIOCAGO, .IH_OCI 17.—Once | more Chicago is calling on its flex- | | dble lake shore line for traffic re- | let. Broad boulevards strung along ! parkways reclaimed from Laka| |Michigan in the last decade have | done much to ease congestion, pro- | viding high-speed “outer drives” both north and south from the | loop. | Now the job of linking these north and south routes is under way. It involves construction of a $10,- 000,000 viaduct and bridge over the mouth of the Chicago river. This entails pushing the shore |} line immediately south of the riv- ' er’s mouth 445 feet farther out, but Chicago has so completely tamed m shore line that this part of the; Job is incidental. Some 73,000 automobiles pass jover the famous Michigan avenue |bridge in an average day at pres- ‘ent. Much of this is through traf- win, Kingfisher mechanic. The motor has three cylinders, arranged in triangular fashion, and power explosions are delivered at both ends of the cylinders. ——————— CUTTER LEAVES FOR BANKS For service on the nalibut banks to the Westward, the Coast Guard Cutter Tallapoosa, Capt.
