j Ralph Bishop and wife of La
mont, Mich., visited Alaska in 1928.
Commenting on their trip, they say
'among other things:
j “Not being able to remember
! your initials, are trusting to luck
'that the right Mr. Hayes gets this
card. There certainly can’t be
two like you. We have wandered
quite a ways from Michigan since
you heard from us—are in Dallas,
: Texas, for the winter and while
| we are both liking it very much
our thoughts go back to our sum
Imer in Alaska, with all its pleas
ant memories made more so by
your kindness to us. Always, we
shall be thinking of you as pass
ling on your words of getting to
other travellers who, like us, were
'fortunate enough to meet you.”

STOP SHORE EROSION
BY KETCHIKAN PLANT
B. D. Stewart, Federal and Ter
ritorial mining engineer, in his
annual report, gives the following j
account of operations on Dali
Island, which he terms one of the
most notable developments of the
season in non-metallic operations:
“The limestone quarry of the
Pacific Coast Cement company at
View Cove on the west coast of
Dali Island, about 65 miles south
west of Ketchikan, has been op
erated with an average clew of
30 men during the biennium.
“Important features of this new
quarry enterprise are as follows:
“A long life for its operation
is assured by the extent, purity
and accessibility of the deposit.
“It furnishes the raw material
I for a cement plant on Puget Sound
i that has been recently built and
that embraces the most up-to-date
equipment for handling materials
and manufacturing cement prod
ucts.
“The present capacity of this
plant is one million barrels per
annum and provision has been
made for its expansion to a ca
jpacity of three million barrels as
| requirements demand,
j “The transportation system for
handling limestone at the quarry
includes belt conveyors and a spe
cially constructed wharf with 400
foot face which enables loading of
a ship to proceed at the rate of
j 700 tons of rock per hour. Two
steel steamers especially equipped
for the purpose, and each with a
capacity for handling 6,300 tons of
limerock, have been provided for
transporting the output of the
quarry to the cement plant at
Seattle. Up to the present time
only one of these steamers has
been used owing to the fact that
the quarry face has not reached
a sufficient extent to supply the
full output ultimately planned.
The present output of the quarry
i is at the rate of about 250,000 tons
! per annum.
j “In 1930 operations conjjnenced
Ion March 8 and were continued
j throughout the year, during which
| period 42 steamer trips were made.
| Present plans of the company con
j template continued full-scale op
| era lions throughout the year with
j the exception of temporary shut

downs planned for making neces
sary repairs and improvements to
the plant. These contemplated
improvements include the erection
of a 600-foot seawall for the pro
tection of the shore from erosion
by the sea in front of the quarry
and the construction of a new in

of a new bunkhouse and a recrea

A LONG SWAT
Even though he had not swung
a club for almost four months,
B. R. Hart, vice president of the
Alaska Packers Association, who
is spending a week in the city
awaiting steamer connections for
the South, showed the boys Tues
day how the noble art should be
done. One swat, about 225 yards,
was probably the longest wood
shot ever made on the local links
and in its majestic sweep through
nitrogen and oxygen, must have
ruined the lives of many “white
socks”—gnats.

Berger, the monthly mail boat op

Inlet ports, departed Tuesday af
