J. freight, said: “Our men who have had to unload such cargo on prev- jous trips, reported they had trouble ! when they were ashore. Union miners and longshoremen called’ them scabs, and fights followd. We had to take this step to protect| them. | Mr. Robertson said that the Ju- neau Chamber of Commerce should issue elther-a denial ‘or affirmation ¥by “my -wife; Mrs. of the lack of protection of seamen from violence by strikers.

HELLO EVERYBODY-—This is Bob Wilms \roadcast- ing for International Highway Gold Mining and Explora- tion Compcny, Ine, of Juneau, Alaska, My subject to- night will bke: “THE PLACE IS ALASKA--AND THE BUSINESS IS GOLD MINING." Many of you have read that splendid article to awaken Alaskan minds—by Rex Beach—in the January Cosmopolitan. . It n suggested that the Government populate this Northern country—with husky young men not afraid to work—IF, THOSE KIND OF MEN CAN BE FOUND. am not a young man—nor am I an old man— balance both sides of this Well—I so. 1 think I can fittingly suggestion. I have been back in the hills—most of the time in the past 13 years—and it is & startling revelation to me to see the youth of today—up-brajded in such a manner— and to see such shaken confidence fu what is now called the “Lost Generation.” Instead of considering all this as a reprimand—I prefer to look at it from a more prac- tical angle—I figure it is @ direct CHALLENGE TO AMERICAN YOUNG MEN OF TODAY--alright—speak- ing as only one young man-—that challenge is fittingly accepted in such an organizatipn as International High- way Gold pregents toaay—a fine organization built to blaze the way—built to give those “seemingly unfor- tunate” young men their toe hold—but also. it is built by she courage of young men today—who are just as capable—just as efficlent as the “old timers"—for it is the “old timers” who have taught us here in the north— and who have gracefully stepped aside—they have my greatest respect and admiration—they also have my greatest determination—to shoulder their job-—with mod- ern efficient mining methods today—whigh means the greatest benefit to modern, commercialism. Now here is a though—this article calls for “gov- ernmental aid”—it would be a very mice thing perhaps— but are we Alaskans so soft as to have to call for gov- ernmental aid in everything that is done today? ‘“Let the government do it" that is the slogan toddy. “Ye:— Uncle @am can do it alright”—he is only "30 BILLION dollars in the red right pow—and who must pay that indebtedness? ’ Come-on ALASKANS—AWAKEN TO THE FACTS— shoulder this job if doing your part—in developing our northern resources—by independent corporations — and help swell the government treasury thereby. You have plenty of money laying dormant in Alaska today—to do a great deal towards the profitable development of your country. Has everyone lost their personal initiative? I know you have faith and confidence in your nerth-— or else you would not be here—Alright—now is the time to capitalize that faith—get into this surgi tidée mining activity adopt this Slogan “Dong'!‘ 003{ SELVES'—Uncle Sam has his hands full-get behind Internasional Highway Gold—they will give you AC- TION— PRODUCTION—AND SUCCESS, In his article Mr. Beach quotes Governor Troy—who fittingly describes gold mining in the north in the past. But today a new era of surging gold mining activity is present., The keynote of modern life is POWER. Power is very essential to the prospector today—that is why it is necessary to have incorporated or co-operative or- ganizations today to carry on gold mining activities ef- ficiently—and believe me such a condition gives a great henefit to cveryone because—it gives you all a chance to_ profit in the development of our northern mineral wealth—by supplying that power. Look at the development of mining in Canada—by using modern aviation—and airplane photography. Many explorafion companies were formed—glving them the power in the field to back up prospectors and develop thefr vast expanse of country. Today new mines are being established in many sections that were before just barren lands on lh\mflp, Mining in Canada today has advanced many years—due only to the application of modern power in the field, Mr. Beach recommends Alaska to follow Canadian technique—in developing her resources — International Highway Gold s just one step ahead of t Sugges- tiorn—taking Alaskan dormant money and jumping into Canadian gold mining activity—which means imme: production in a fleld capable of tremendous expansion— and remember we are making our reclaimed qu;kg; weulth pay for that expansion—instead of our stock- holders—and we are capable of expansion through British Columbia, the Yukon Territory and throughout our own ALASKA—in the one beautifully constructed organiza- tion—your own International Highway Gold Mining and Exploration Co., Inc, of Juneau, Alaska. In conclusion 1 will say—that it is for the older ALASKANS to realize that some of the younger mining men are up on their toes today—and it is necessary for th to further realize—that their work is not done— and there is today many thousands of dollars laying dormant in our Alaskan banks—that can be transmitted into efficient power—to be used to great advantage and to great profit in the intelligent development of our Nosthern Natural Resources. You do not need to admonish youth of today—You do not need to wait for “UNCLE SAM" to unlock this northern freasure—all you need is sufficient encourage- ment to put ALASKA'S DORMANT MONEY into prac- tical gold mining—INTERNATIONAL HIGHWAY GOLD offers that encouragement—offers a form of ACTION— that should stir the ambitions of all you Alaskans—to get behind a REAL DETERMINED FIGHT—to put your own men—your own power—out there in the :}au of gold mining today—and reap the BENEFITS such intelligent conatructive ACTION—for yourselves. Thank you folks—and good night. Tomorrow night at five minutes past seven I will again broadeast for International Highway Gold—My sub- ject will be: “AVIATION IN GOLD MINING.” REMEMBER — Drop in and see the Wilms Boys— Office, No.. 205 Zynda Hotel—or Phone 138—"RIGHT Now.” { g
