AIR TRAVEL DAY AND NIGHT
Just to give you an idea that the country is becom-1
ing “air-conscious” and that eventually travelling in the;
air will be as common as automobile transportation we i
call your attention to the recent inauguration of an all
air night-and-day passenger and mail service between
Seattle and New York.
It is interesting to observe that the west-bound
trip requires 31 hours but the east-bound! passenger cov
ers the same 2,770 miles in 28 hours.
Alaskans who say they will never fly and look upon
the airplane as a dangerous vehicle might well realize
that it is destined to become the great medium of trans
portation for long or short distances in this Territory
and that its use will become more popular each year.
SERVING THE PEOPLE, NOT AUTOCRATS
In every mail The Gateway receives letters of con
gratulation for representing opinion of the majority re
lative to increased rates over the Alaska Railroad. “We
are glad there is a1 least one paper in the railroad belt
with the “guts” to express its personal opinion, right or
wrong,” one wrote. The Gateway has long been cogni
zant of the fact this paper has been looked to in cham
pioning constructive ideas, projects and programs. This
paper is bound to no ties which might forbid honest ex
pression; it bodly utters convictions and battles for
what we believe in our heart is right.
The Gateway serves no sovereign, autocrat, or what
have you, °nly regular folks' desires, nor is it a political
slave to either of the so-called parties which continually
have one-half of our populace at arms-length with the
other half.
Abe voiced our sentiments when he said:
“The voice of the people is the voice of God.”
Really, when we read over some of these paragraphs
in type, we are sometimes impressed with the idea that
they might be worse, but it would take a lot to make
them worse.
So! So the Howell railroad committee is still alive
and functioning. We're glad of that because when
they return they will realize what an error they made
and rectify same.
Petty hatreds, which appear to transform some
hearts into bitter pools in which Justice perishes and de
vine Reason is quite overthrown, have no place anywhere
and especially so in this grand and glorious Northland.
The House defeated the bill asking for $1,000 for ad
vertising purposes for the International Highway. They
may think they know what they are doing but it is to be
hoped they are not cutting off their nose to spite their
“maps.”
Say, big boy, if you know so much, what is psychia
try?
Wall street reports that the public is getting in the
market again. It's close to the season when the saps be
gin to rise.
In involving programs of study for Alaska schools
during the 1931-.32 term, why not discard the study of
French, Spanish, Latin, etc., and have the youngsters
taught the Swedish language. It would at least be ap
plicable to the country. Later, they could learn to in
hale snoose.

NIECE OF NOTED
Dural ice nun,
MIEN/ WES
Miss Irene Irvine, who debarked
from the Admiral Evans Wednes
day, is on her way to Anchorage
where she will reside temporarily
with her uncle, Matt Neiminen,
flying ace with the Alaskan Air
ways. She says she may make
her permanent home there, this
depending on her ability to secure
sufficient employment to pay ex
penses.
Miss Irvine has been taking les
sons in aviation. She has received
training under Gordon Marey,
transport pilot at the airfield of
Borger, Texas. The ship she trained
on was a “Swallow” two-seater
open plane. She has had consid
erable practice on landings and
take-offs and says that when she
has had eight hours more train
ing she can obtain a license to
make solo flights and hopes her
uncle will give her the necessary
instruction.
Mrs. Geo. Mumford, wife of the
well known Anchorage citizen, is
Miss Irvine’s aunt.
This young lady from Texas has
many good qualities. She is good
looking, modest, refined, discreet
and well educated. She is a ste
nographer and accountant and
has had experience in general of
fice work but she is going to An
chorage. That old town always
was lucky.
NEW POSTAL CLERK
Orren Brooks is the name of the
new mail clerk at Kodiak and he
was aboard the Admiral Evans on
his praise of Mr. Howard. He said
McGee, old sour-dough clerk, will
shuffle business, love and dunning
letters the coming summer. Mr.
Brooks is a veteran of the World
War and for some time past has
been connected with the Seattle
postoffice.

To the boys and girls in Seward,
