The truth of the matter is that we received orders from Seattle to inspect: mo- !torships in southeast Alaska. We cruised around in Funter Bay, Hoon- ah Bay, Taku and Auk Bay. It was merely a routine navigation inspec- tion tour. After all, a coast guard cutter doesn’t run like a scheduled steamer. We're more elastic — and proceed on orders from Seattle. We had been in port for a week and headquarters instructed us to pro- ceed on our inspection.” | The Haida will refuel tomorrow and leave Thursday at 5 am. for Chilkoot Barracks, where a troop of soldiers and three army trucks will be transported to Valdez.
