D SWISS SPENDING §1,130,000 DALY | i BERNE, Switaerland, Nov, 2— | Frugal Swiss, helding shut the neu- Iml sidedoor to French and Ger- | man battle lines, learned that their general mobilization is costing about 181,130,000 a day. | An order urging soldiers to econo- mize was issued by Gen. Henri Gui- £an, who heads Switzerland's 400,000 citizen soldiers, \ HILSCHER HAS WORDS AGAIN WITH CHAMBER Writer Eme@_ég Unscathed from Speech Before Severest Crifics Laying a revolver on the table in front of him for “protection,” Herbert Hilscher, writer whose ar- ticle in Cosmopolitan a year ago inspired = criticism from the Ju- neau Chamber of Commerce, spoke tod meeting of the Cham- at | ber | He spoke in an atmosphere of friendly calm. He admitted there was much to be said for the Cham- ber’s viewpoint and Chamber Pres- ident Charles W. Carter said Hil- scher’s article probably wasn't quite so bad as it was thought to be at first reading Hilscher, who has spent five months in Alaska this year, pre- dicts a decade of great prosperity just ahead of the Territory. He reviewed conditions as he found them this year and said miners everywhere in the Interior were doing well. Fairbanks Anchorage Growing The writer predicted Fairbanks would be a city ‘of 10,000 people by 1950 and that Anchorage would be the largest city in Alaska, ex- ceeding even Juneau within 10 years Hilscher noted the absence in Al- aska of a “defeatist psychology” which he says prevails Outside and makes for a depressing atmesphere. The war in Europe should result in Alaska's seeing an tourist business next year, Hil- scher said, adding that those who believe tourists leave nothing in Alaska but the nickels they spend for postcards are mistaken. Plan Colonizaticn Referring to the Slattery report, | Hilscher remarked that since a certain amount of planned coloni- zauon apparently is going to be forced on Alaska, the Territory should “put as much intelligence as it can into such plans.” Visitors at the Chamber lunch- | eon included Alva Blackerby, new Forest Service employee who will be in charge of CCC training, and Fred R.

HEARING 10 B " HELD ON BRISTOL " BAY REGULATION Fishermen Ask Open Sea- son in 1940 for Resi- dents-Weak Cycle Ward T. Bower, Chief of the Al- aska Division of the Bureau of | Fisheries, is coming from Wash- ington to Seattle to attend a spec- ia} hearing November 7 on regula- tions for the 1940 season. Two Anchorage men, Vernon Hil- liker and Ed Dodd, passedsthrough Juneau this week on their way |to attend the hearing. Represent- ing Westward and Bristol Bay | fishermen, they will seek to have the season opened in Bristol Bay next year at least for resident fishermen. In 1935, the year of a weak cycle due to be repeated in 1940, the Bureau opened the season in Bris- tol Bay to resident fishermen only. Hilliker and Dodd hope, in the face of an expectation that the area may be closed altogether next year, to have the arrangement re- peated. In 1935, Bristol Bay was fished by 467 residents. Last year the number was 1013, Sroex Qu OTATIONS NEW YORK, Nov. 2. — Closing quotation ‘of ' Alaska Juneau mine stock today is 6%, American Can 106%, American Power and -Light 5%, Anaconda 32%, Bethlehem Steel 88%, Commonwealth and Southern 1%, Curtiss Wright 10, General Mot- | ors 54%, International Harvester 62, Kennecott 39%, New York Central 21%, Northern Pacifie 11, United | States Steel 741, Pound $3.99%. | DOW, JONES AVERAGES The following are today's Dow, | Jones averages: Industrials 151.56, rails 33.65, utilities 25.83. e 0P WSS THELP THY | | NEIGHBOR | Telephone 713 or write The Alaska Territorial ‘ Employment Service for this qualified worker.
