Prest, who had given a demonstration of flying at Juneau on July 4, was still missing on a flight from Eagle to Fairbanks and grave fears were felt for his life. It was believed that he had come to grief within five or ten miles of Riding’s Big Chena camp. Prest had only 58 gravity gasoline because he could secure none better. He had 40 gallons of gasoline, fifteen gallons of oil, a motion picture camera and a revolver. To celebrate the sixth birthday of her son, Duncan, Mrs. R. E.

The Government can't do what the USO can do. The Government has to be impersonal in its dealings 1f the Government donated twice as much money as the USO has at hand, it couldn’t do the job.
