SCHENLEY HEAD ARRIVES HERE ON NORTH SEA President of Widely Known Liquor Firm Sees Alaska FacingGreat Expansion THEODORE C. WIEHE Despite the popular idea through- out muech of the Cnited States proper that “the North Countree is a wild Countree,” the men and women of Alaska have highly cul- tivated and refined tastes in liquor, Theodore C.

He is the first high official of a major American distilling firm to visit here and study conditions on the spot. As the result of his trip, Mr. Wiehe said he can make plans to extend newspaper advertising and sales promotion of Schenley brands throughout Alaska, much as 'Model City Will ~ House Research I NORTH SEA IN TODAY HAS 30 | At King Island FURLH!S PORT Hubbard and|Steamer Calling at Hoonah, | Port Althorp En- route to Sitka | The Rev. | | Party Leave on 18-Month | Experiment Tomorrow ] With thirty passengers aboard for| |a primitive island—stainless steel |Juneau, eight others for Sitka, and| | roofs next to snow-capped |15 roundtrippers, the steamer North la 1500-watt light plant providing|Sea arrived in port here shortly | electricity next door to candle-lit|after 11 o'clock this forenoon and | home—.

Juneau, May 26. — Sunrise, 3:14 a.m.; sunset, 8:41 p.m. WEATHER SYNOPSIS The barometric pressure distribution over the field of observation has changed but little during the past 24 hours, the pressure being low- est uver the Aleutians, the lowest reported pressure being 29.00 inches a short distance southeast of Dutch Harbor. The air pressure was also low over the West Coast States and western Canada, the lowest reported pressure being 29.58 inches at Prince George. This general pressure distribution has been atteniled by precipitation along the coast- al regions from the Aleutians southeastward to Ketchikan and from Vancouver Island southward to San Francisco, also over ‘ne wupper Yukon Valley, and by fair weather over the remainder of the field of observation. NORTHWESTERN For Sitka—Ben Bellamy. For Ketchikan—Mrs. N. L. Troast, Distillers Corporation. “I am particularly impressed,” the export executive said, “by the '(nct that people here know and appreciate the better grade of American whiskies to a degree un known in many places in the Unit- ed States proper. For example, our straight, eight-year-old An- cient Age is a best seller. “Naturally, this fine old whiskey costs a little more than some other brands. But despite this, its great popularity and its market leadership here shows conclusively Alaska, ‘facing a period of great expansion, | both as a tourist center and in its permanent, year -round industries and trade. “The scenic wonders and beauties of Alaska are, of course, famous throughout the United States,” he | said, “but the reports of the land | and the people can't do justice. I have visited nearly every country | in the world on business Lhese‘ past two years, and both as a place to visit and a place to visit, Alaska rates among ‘the tops’.” | Mr. Wiche said he had been eager to visit Alaska for a number of years. “Why, only last year,” he point- ed out, “I had a trip all planned but just as I was ready to start, something came up and I had to pestpone it. But now that I've been here I'm not going to let anything interfere with my com- ing again.” Mr. Wiehe is continuing on the North Sea to Sitka and plans to return here on the vessel Thurs- day- for a longer visit. He is ac- companied by William E. Rapp, products.
