However, Dele- gate ‘Dimond believes his point | was well taken and he will con- | tinue to urge that the code be not applied to Alaska, until Alaska fishermen have a chance to be | heard. ADVANCE IN AVIATION From New York—or any other 4Eusum city—to Nome in th:ie dé Such a trip will be easily pos- wlhlc next summer, according to Nlck Bez, president of the Peril ‘smus Packing Company and al- isu president of the Alaska South- jern Airways, operating between Southeast Alaska points. | In Washington to attend the hearings on the fisheries code, Mr. Bez tells how it will be easily pos- sible to be in Nome on, the third 'day after leaving New York, trav- eling only over established com- mercial air lines. Let us say a person Nomeward- bound steps into a plane Monday ! morning in New York. In 24 hours, or slightly less, he will have arrived in Seattle. Incidentally, he need do no more night travel- ing to complete his trip on sched- ule. From Seattle he flies on to Juneau, a frip of about nine hours. Tuesday night he remains in Ju- neau and bright and early Wad- nesday morning he is off for Fair- | banks. With the fast planes which | will be in service it should not take | more than six hours for that leg ‘of the flight and then he can | continue directly to Nome, arriving | there Wednesday evening. This will be made possible, Mr. ;Bc7 says, when Alaska Southern | Airways inaugurates a regular ser- | vice next May between Seattle |and Juneau and other Southeast cities. It is understanding that | similar service will also be pro- | vided between Juneau and Fair- banks, and, of course, several. lines operate from Fairbanks to Nome. | ALASKANS IN CAPITAL H.
