! “Residents of Southeastern
-Alaska in particular and the
residents of other sections of
Alaska in general should
work for the division of the
First Judicial Div-ision and
merging of the "Second and
■ Fourth Divisions. This is one
of the several issues which I
am trying to advance during
my present visit to Juneau,”
jaid H. C. Strong, Ketchi
kan business man.
The question of dividing
the First Division and of
consolidating the Second
and Fouth Divisions came to
a head recently when the
grand jury submitted its re
port to United States Dis
trict Judge Robert W. Jen
nings at the recent court se.
sion held at Ketchikan. Since
then the Ketchikan Commer
cial Association has taken
the matter up.
“I understand that the De
partment of Justice recom
mended this change over a
year ago,” said'Mr. Strong.
‘We should now keep urging
the matter and then ask for
Congressional actioa
“The justice of dividing the
First Division and the merg
ing of the Second and Four
th should be apparent to all
Take for instance the city ol
Juneau. More votes are cas.
here, and the imports and ex
ports are greater, than, in
the Second and Fourth Divi
sions combined. The «amt
thing can be said of Ketchi
:an the entire vote in the
j icond and Fourth Division,
md the exports and imports
ire also greater.
“Juneau and Ketchikan art
.lie large cities of the Firs
Jivision and with the com
jined population of th.
any other cities or towns
.e only receive a compare
r/ely small amount ox re
presentation in our Legisis
are. The First Division ha.
.•vice and perhaps tine.
„imes mOre business tha
.he Second and Fourth Dm
.ions combined, yet those
.wo divisions have twice as
much legislative representa
tion as the First Division.
States have fought for a co.
rection of similar represent
ation and I believe the time
has come for us of the Fii s.
Division to bring the matter
to a direct head and accom
plish the result of attaining
that which we want
“There are many other ang
les to this new division of
the Alaska territory besides
hat of representation- One
}f these angles is that of
courts. There is much legal
business at both Juneau and
Ketchikan, too much for one
judge. There is not suffic
ed business for two judges
. n the Second and Fourth
Divisions and while the two
divisions, if merged, would
cover a wide section, one jud
je could attend the legal
transactions. Of course
Nome would perhaps object
strongly to this merging of
the two named divisions but
the residents of Seward Pen
insula cannot but see that
*
the legislative representa -
tion at present is unfair.
Mr. Strong will return tr
Ketchikan on the Jefferson
shortly.

“Fire Music” Planned.
Hilo, T. H. Feb. 2- Music
made more realistic by a
background of eternal fire
and the roar and odor of a
molten lava is the basic idea
of a musical festival which
it is planned to stage at the
brink of Kilauea crater near
here soon.
The plan is to bring a
symphony orchestra from
the mainland to Hawaii to
play “fire music” and appro
priate selections. The
scheme involves erection of
an amphitheatre overlook
ing the crater and contemp
lates making the "fire mus
ic” festival an annual event,
