Down in the tip of Mexico the| couples saw the famed ruins of| the ancient Mayan civilization at| Mitla and Mont Albans. They| spent a week on the white sand beaches of the Pacific at Acapulco, stopped at Taxco to visit Bill Spratling, silver craftsman well known in Juneau for his work in the advancement of Alaskan na- tive craft work. | The travelers spent several days! in Mexico City, visited Pueblo,! and drove to Vera Cruz on the| sast coast before returning up the| Pan American Highway to Lhe‘ States. | Sturtevant, Territorial Employ- | ment Service interviewer, returned | with a new idea about “lazy” Mexicans. He's ready to take issue with anyone propounding the idea | that all South of the Border biti- | zens are indolent after observing | them work from sun to sun. He descriced seeing Mexican | { farmers tilling soil on almost per-i | pendicular slopes in the high, | mountains north of Mexico City. | | Mountain sides were so steep that | actually let themselves | down by ropes to cultivate their small farm patches, he said. The couples drove from the bor- | der to Vancouver, then by the| Canadian steamship to Alaska. Andresen is assistant. medical director for the Alaska Native| Service. ! | PAVING STARTS SOON ON HAINES CUTOFF The work of paving the enure; length of road on the Alaska 'side of the Haines Cutoff is expected to start June 10 or 15, according to A.
