Calhoun, Burroughs Adding Machine Company arrived from'the westward on the Alaska. He is returning from a six weeks' visit to the Interior—three weeks in PairbankKs, two weeks in| Anchorage and a week in Seward. He expects to sail on the North- land for Sitka, Ketchikap and Se-| attle. Calhoun reports that business con- | ditions in the Interior are very good. He said that the Bulrougm Adding Machine Company sold more | than twice as many machines in Alaska this year as were sold last year. In Matanuska Conditions are particuiarly good at Matanuska, Calhoun said. Four Anchorage merchants have estab- lished branch stores in Palmer and cash registers were sold to each of the new stores. The accounting de-| pattment of the Alaska Rural Re-| + habilitation Corporation, or as it is more commenly known, the Mata-| nuska Colonization Project, bought five accounting machines from Cal- Houn. Main Buildings Up Calhoun stated that all of the| main buildings at the Matanuska project are practically complelcd These include a large warehouse, a | creamery, a cannery, a power house. and a trading post.combining a gen- eral store, post office and general offices.

Explored From Air Financed by dircct government appropriation, a squadron of train- el fliers have explored and pho- t:zraphed all Canadian territory from the air, thus giving govern: chart those sections which appear p.omising for development and to eliminate the worthless areas which otherwise might have wasted the time and money of both government and private investigators. “The proposed Army Air Base is to teach. Army fliers the particular pittalls of Alaskan flying and de- welop in; them a sense for Alaska cupdmoiu" remarked Mr. Beach. “Since fo accomplish this purpose the fliers will have to travel consid- erably in and about Alaska, it would scein feasible that they utilize this flyihg to some advantage. For g vaty.

These drills could be taken into otherwise un- scaleable places by air and deposit- ed for the use of these ‘lost gen- eration’ units.” Government Grubstaking Mr. Beach remarked that “with this kind of government grubstak- mg organization, the lost generation of ‘college kids who are looking for a toehold and are capabl.e of “doing a long day's work, ‘would have a chance to earn théir salt.” He added that in his opinion such a program weuld “do more to turn up mineral discoveries in Alaska than the past fifty years-have accomplished.
