A FUTILE CHAIN LETTER The futility of earnest but dis- organized and misguided political effort is illustrated by a chain let- ter now in circulation in some parts of the eountry. It deals, as does| the Townsend movement, with pe-) titions, saying: | “For U. S. govt, pensions 330 to $50 a month to all over 55, vote for Dr. Pope for President in Nov. by writing in his name on the bal- ot as independent, like this: ‘James E. Pope, Okla.,’ for President.” ‘The truth, apparently unsuspect-| ed by those who further this chain| letter effort, is that no amount of such writing-in would have the/ slightest practical effect on the election. Even if a majority of all the voters of the country so ex- ‘pressed themselves ‘for' Dr. Pope, he would mot have, legally, a sin- gle vote.

Hawlgtjs;orlh Boards Indian Bureau Vessel for Arctic Coast 0. teams a good!| So Bound for-the Arctic Coast with a full cargo of supplies which will be delivered at various Indian ser- vice stations en route, the motorship North Star arrived here last night shortly after midnight and is scheduled to sail at midnight to- night. Capt. S. T. L. Whitlam of the North Star said the vessel would go as far at Point Barrow, as it has done annually for years. Referring to the transshipment of supplies to the North: Star at Seward, which are now being rushed from Seattle Whitlam advanced the belief that it would be better to send the sup- plies from Seattle on the Derblay direct to Nome and he could pick them up there. However, he said, he had room to handle the 35 tons ordered by the Governor's office for Seward delivery. Report from Seattle said that 200 tons were be- ing made available for Arctic des- tination. Capt. Whitlam, who has been going to the north for years, said many of the places where he stops have few if any: facilities, thus it requires a long time to make the entire trip as far as Barrow. At the latter point the Star anchors tation. Joining the North Star here are Charles W. Hawkesworth, Assistant | Director of Education for the In- dian Office, Miss Louise Jeschien, newspaper woman; and probably | Miss Barbara Winn of the Indian | Office. My, Hawkesworth is making a | fiéld trip, planning to vist the | various Indian stations enroute, and expects to be gone well into the | Fall, and the North Star will not | reach Point Barrow uutil around | the frs tof September, according to Capt. Whitlam. —— e — | PARTY GIVEN | Mrs. Harry Ask, who with her |two children, Charles and Joanne, |is visiting with her sister, Mrs. |Leonard Holmquist, entertained a number of children yesterday on the event of Charles’ birthday. | S e The Prince Rupert, which stopped ‘The National Temperance Legion, a Douglas win would give the - here last evening, had more than|administration be closed and the | Organized at Lawrence, Kas. plans her share of artists aboard making|asséts distributed to the heirs. {a national campaign to “advertise the Southeast Alaska cruise.
