Thomas Smith, re- turned to this city last night, re- porting a successful and tor the most part a pleasant cruise. The mission of the craft was to take a party cf five members of the Bu- reau of United States Public Sur- veys along the southwest and northwest coasts to prosecute ivil | enginecring work at various places ashore. Those that made the voyage be- sides Capt. Smith were Floyd Belts, survey chief; Thomas Mc- Carthy, Forest Gardner, Leonard Berlin and Carl Collen. The route from the Pacific to the Bering and from the Bering to the Pacific was through False Pass. Sites for Schools Most of the surveying work was in connection with sites for federal government schools for Indians. Ice floes in Bering Strait force the Yakobi in Russian waters clcse to the w.oerian shore, but nonc of the party landed there. The smaller Diomedes Isiand, which is in American waters, was visited, as were alsp King Island and Cape Prince of Wales. On the coast of Seward Penin- sula large herds of reindeer were seen. In the Bering great num- bers of fur seals were encountered. [n the Arctic, walrus and mam- moth flocks of Northern birds oc- curred with frequency. Ivory Market Poor “The Indians and Eskimos of of Alaska feel the effects of world- wide business depression,” said Mr. McCarthy. “For instance the in- habitants of King Island, who have outboard motors in their skin boats, could not market their carved ivory in Nome at good prices this year, and natives elsewhere were unable to dispose of their furs to advan- tage this season. “The most primitive condition < Indian or Eskimo life in Alaska, I think, is at Nushagak, on the coast of Bristol Bay, in the Ber- ing. They are isolated. Their mode of existence apparently has not changed in hundreds of years. In places in the neighborhood of THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, OCT. 30, 1931.

Her light draft enabled her to navigate shallow shore waters at places where we wanted to land. “Stormy weather was unusual. Our worst shaking up occurred as we were crossing the Arctic Cir- cle going north.” | Capt. Smith commented on the nced of surveys of tidal currents. “Coastal and water surveys have L2en rather extensive,” he explain- ed, “but there are no current sur- veys at all. They would be great- ly appreciated by navigators.” [ . | WHO'S WHO I | AND WHERE | | o ——— . Dr. F. S.
