Traveling first to Minneapolis and St. Louis, Mr. Johnston re- ported that the cold spell they had missed by leaving Juneau caught up with them.

Mr. Johnston spoke of | attending several merchandise marts on the coast, at which he saw many new products due to come onto the markets soon. ) The general economic outlcok on the Pacific coast, observed John- ston, seems rosy. There is consider- able new building activity every- where. He found a great deal of interest in Alaska as an actual country with people living in it, the kind of place a lot of folks would like to visit someday.
