FIRE LAST NIGHT IS FALSE ALARM What was thought to be cause for an alarm last night was nothing but the usual burning of trash on the property of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company. The fires are usually lighted dur- ing the day and thereby do not cause any special excitement; however, this particular trash heap, most powder boxes, was set ablaze at night and consequently was mis- taken for the “real thing.” The firé department answered the attempt to probe ! call, which was 1-9, shortly after 10 o’'clock. e e—— McCOYS ARRIVE Recent arrivals hére, Mr, and Mrs. A.

He said he also talked to men who are interested in putting up piling and timber treating plants in this area and was assured that after the war they will surely look into the matter. Mayor Lucas talked also to per- sons who might be interested in establishing a ply board manufac- turing plant here. In Seattle he attended a meeting held for the purpose of discussing the possibility of establishing a transportation line from Seatile through Southeast Alaska to Haines and then over the Haines highway to the Interior. Great Interest tion in 1936 was $35000 and that figure is now $96,300. New Hospitals | Under Hirst’s administration four | new hospitals were built for the natives, those at Pt. Barrow, Bethel, Kanakanak and Tanana at a cost jof about $600,000. l Since he came here some 20 new school buildings have been built for natives, costing about $400,000. | Some 200 more employees have been added to the office in the past eight years to administer to |the expanded services. | After the formation of the Credit and Organization Division, thou- sands of dollars were loaned to na-| tives for education Outside, to build a cannery, boats and cooperative stores. For the first time in many years all of the cooperative stores owned and operated by the natives are in {good shape financially and there are 40 of them throughout Alaska. The extension of the educational system to natives is noted in the increase of enrollment during the past eight years from 4,000 to the present 7,000, Arts And Crafts The Arts and Crafts Division de- veloped from scratch under Hirst's administration. Prior to 1936 much of the curios sold in the Territory were made in Japan and these imi- tations which could ke sold cheaper than the genuine Alaskan articles were a threat to the industry from which the natives of Alaska derived much of their income. The problem was licked before the war started and according to reliable estimates about $300,000 worth of these Alaskan items will be sold during this year, all of the money going to the natives who produced the goods. Many wires and letters from na- tives all the way from St. Lawrence Island to Metlakatla, according to reports from Outside, flooded the !nltlnnal headquarters of the Indian | Office and the office of the Secre- | Em‘!—y of the Interior, protesting the | transfer. | Statement | Hirst said that “I have been very happy in my work with the natives of Alaska during the past eight | years.

Mayor Lucas said he had a fine visit with Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia of New York, who told him he has issued a proclamation urging that no hbutter be used during the noon‘ meal.
