FORTH REASONS NEED
ADDITIONAL SERVICE
“Twenty-five years ago,’’ writes Mr.
Derrick Lane of Kanatak to the local
Chamber of Commerce, “the Alaska
Peninsula had mail delivery once a
month. Today, the same conditions
exist.
“The size of the boat has been in
creased; the freight has increased,
but the mail service remains the
same.
“ it takes two months to get an an
swer from Seattle and three months
from the East and middle West. This
portion of Alaska can never grow
until we can get a 'better, or rather,
j more frequent transportation.
“Now, gentlemen, it is going to
j take time to get this over and to
imake the government see this and we
need your help and need it hadly.
This can only be accomplished by
getting at it and keep pounding. This
means, when we get it, more business
for Seward, so Seward must do her
share of the pounding.
“The S. S. Starr and her officers
have all given wonderful service and
no one should have any kick but it
gets back to the above mentioned
point. Once a month service is not
enough. Everybody along the line
from Kanatak to Unalaska will back
you up if once you can start the ball
rolling.
“ Individually, we can all help but
the burden of the work has got to
come from the Seward Chamber of
Commerce”.
RUTH ELDER'S FEAT
GALLED SEX SWAGGER
LONDON, Dec. 21. (JP)—"Sex swag
ger” is the terminology applied by E.
Arnot Robertson in the Daily Express
to Ruth Elder’s flight and other sen
sational stunts by women.
“I can beat you mere men at
everything—and I always take my
lipstick with me” is the attitude
which immediately gets other
women’s backs up, say the writer in
the Express, who declares this atti
tude provokes the contemptuous
amusement of men who are inclined
to lump all women together and gen
eralize about them.
SWINDLERS OF TOKYO
HIT BYHNRD TIES
TOKYO, Dec. 21. (JP)—There are j
more than 100,000 unemployed per-1
sons In Tokyo, according to the ver
nacular press, and petty crimes have
increased proportionately.
The number of robberies this year
is the biggest on record, but swind
ling cases showed a decline. The ex
planation is offered that swindling de
creases in inverse ratio to the severity
of hard timet.
