A stormm area prevailed over the southwestern portion of Alaska and the Aleutians, the lowest reported pressure being 20.30 inches a short distance northwest of Atka. Another low p-essure arca of moderate intensity prevailed over the northwestern portion of Vancouver Island. This general pressure distribution has been attended by preclpltatmn along the coastal regions from the Aleutians eastward to ~Cordova, also over gthe lower Kuskokwim, and over Washington and Oregon, and by fair weather over the remainder of the field of observation. It was cooler last night over Southeast Alaska and warmer over the western mmon of Alaska. uw Islands being so adaptable for wild bird nesting, Dr. Murie said, s the complete absence of rodents ccept where they have been im- ported by fox hrmus It is a land | of sea mammals rather than land! mammals, he said. The fox farmers had an excellent ar last year, Warden Jewell re- d, and this season promises to od. The Aleutians produce mous Alaska blue fox. They run wild on the various islands which are under lease to the farm- ers and forage their own food. Dr. Murie found them to be beach- combers to a large degree and one of Cordova, arrived there after four and one-half hours of flying, ac- cording to a radiogram received here by Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Smith, co- owners of the plane. The Smiths are leaving tomorrow for Anchorage aboard the steam- er Alaska where they will join Schwamm and decide upon head- quarters for the .winter months.
