K F Q b AGAIN PROVES ITS VALUE
Within 24 hours alter receiving a message asking it
to locate the motorship Polar Bear, which failed to report
its whereabouts, a broadcast by K F Q L), Anchorage, lo
cated the craft beached at Hoonah, Southeastern Alaska.
Thus gain is proven the sterling worth and impor
mce of this splendid broadcasting station in relation to
the Territory at large.
This is only one of dozens of instances where the sta
tion has been the agency through which important mes
sages and inquiries have been disseminated and where
quick results have followed.
Some day the Territorial Legislature will see the im
portance of using this agency for broadcasting publicity
to the world telling it of the many Alaska opportunities
for investment and more closely linking the Territory
with the remainder of the nation.
Iv F Q D has been builded upon the initiative and self
racrifice of men of small means who have literally fought
their way up by sheer force of courage and no return.
Such efforts are deserved of the fullest encouragement
not alone in recognition of these labors but in the returns
it will give for money invested.
SHORT-SIGHTED POLICY
According- to report the Alaska Railroad is negotia-!
ting with the Bureau of Indian Affairs for the use of the j
MS North Star to haul ties from Seattle to Seward. This j
ts an unfortunate and short-sighted policy.
The regular and dependable steamship lines serving
Alaska are more than worthy of every bit of cooperation
from the government instead of having to compete
against the government as are so many other privately
owned concerns competed to do.
Certainly the government entering into freighting ,
business from the Stales to Alaska will not be conducive |
for our steamship companies to contuance of the past !
and present excellent service at ever-increasing loss.
It seems to us tnis tie policy is in many ways the most |
foolish scheme yet devised against the development of i
resources adjacent to the railroad and success of the sys-'
tern.
WHERE SHOE PINCHES
That the Tory diehards will not go down without a
yap is shown in the broadside Peter Lb Carey, president
of the Chicago Board of Trade, delivered against the
Farm Board.
Mr. Carey asserts that the Farm Board has '‘des
troyed our foreign markets for wheat, it pegged prices:
and piled up surpluses/' on ad nauseum.
Mr Carey says nothing about the Federal govern
ment through its $2,000,000,000 R. F. C. “pegging” big
business while the gamblers of Wall Street continue to j
play their flim-flam game, converting an institution ere- i
/ted for the marketing of stocks and debentures into a |
brace crap game.
It makes a lot of difference whose nose is in the na-j
tional feed trough. True the government destroyed Mr. ■
Carey’s foreign market and prevented the jugglers with j
the bread of the nation taking the wheat from the op-1
pressed farmer at below cost of production and market!
mg it at a profit to themselves. j
It is about time for big business toallow the fact to
sink in that there are others interested in and composing
the government of the United States and that it was not
created as their oyster.
The Portland Oregonian, 71 years a staunch Repub-1
ncan party organ, announces that hereafter it wall be in
dependent. (Like The Seward Gateway) Perhaps we are j
too far away to get the low-down on how “in Dutch” the!
G. 0. P. is.
Russia has transferred her white collar bureaucrats
to jobs in the fields on the discovery that inefficiency has
grown, with bureaucracy in government. Here is a chance
to test the “Back to the Land” movement.
The most disconcerting element in the territorial
Democratic landslide is that affecting the old stalwarts
who slobbered for many years trying to make the big
shot class, but wno will be numbered among the oldtimers
before the wheel of fortune points to their number.
Headline: “Kiss Fires Jockey.” Next: “Champion
Red Hot Mommcr.”
In 1931 Alaska consumed 14,970 boxes of apples and
12,013 in 1932. These in addition to the peck or more
grown at Hope, Alaska. And that’s not apple-sauce.
SEIM "HIES"
LOST FIST GAME BUT
I
The “Ponies” may have lost their
first game but they demonstrated
the squad does not lack the fun
damental attribute which compose
champions; a stout fighting heart.
Battling courageously against
the “Terible Swedes,” a quintet
of veterans skilled in every branch
of backetball, the Seward high
school team lost by the score of 37
to 23 Saturday evening before an
excellent attendance of fans in
Dreamland hall.
Sandbeck and Lang are *the sole
lettermen on the school five, the
remainder, E Larson, John Hughes,
Dick Reed. Andy Peterson and Carl
Rosenberg, playing their first year
with the regulars.
The ‘‘Terrible Swedes,” Jensen,
Faul, E. Manthev, R. Manthey
and D. Shellhorn, an alumni team,
clicked with machine-like preci
sion. At no time did they let down,
recognizing the fact the ‘Tonies”
were out for blood and were in
there fighting every moment.
The half ended 18-11 favor of
the "Terrible Swedes;” with Paul
and Sandbeck having the honor of
sinking first baskets for their res
pective squads.
As usual, Ray Manthey, member
of the 1930 Alaska All-Stars, wras
the basket wizard dumping in 21
sc°ies, brother Ed was second high
Kodaks and kodak supplies_De
veloping, printing, enlarging and
picture framing, ALASKA SHOP,
with 12 points, and Jensen and
Shellhorn were each credited with
a field basket.
Edwin Sandbeck, senior star, was
high man with 11; the rest of the
team each made a basket to round
out the 23.
While realizing much hard work
remains before his team, Coach
Rogers, however, was well pleased
with the school team’s performance
and premises that with a few more
games under their belt, the “Po
nies” will give a good account of
themselves.
“It isn’t a question of winning,
he said, “but how well they play
the game; clean sportsmanship
and, though on the losing end, giv
ing their best all the time.”
The SS Denali, of the Alaska :
Steamship Company, is expected
to arrive in port early this week
