INFANT INDUSTRIES
When the Mormons made their memorable trek
from Nauveau, 111., to great Salt Lake they separated
themselves thousands of miles from markets. They grew
sheep and the women made knitted wear by hand, later
adopting knitting machinery, which was followed by
weaving machinery.
Out of this beginning grew the great Utah Woolen
Mills, from which have emerged branches all over the
West. Last winter many Kodiak sheep were not sheared
because of the drop in the price of wool.
Here is a chance for an infant industry. Knitting
machines do not cost much. Kodiak has many industrious
fingers which are idle in winter when there is no fishing.
Who knows but that several knitting machines, and a
group of industrious women, scouring carding and spin
ning wool, knitting it into woolen socks, sweaters, etc.,
could not lay the foundation for an industry whose raw
material is accorded the best in the nation!
Everyone is awaiting the arrival in Juneau of Fr.
Bernard Hubbard, hero of the volcanos, to decide if the
quake was the result of what the Senate said when the
House again shoved the beer hill over the 10-yard line
for a goal, or one of Hubbard’s fiery pets in the Aleu
tians become peevish.

PORTSMOUTH. N. H„ April 26.;
Old Tom. Marine Corps war horse,
veteran of the Spanish-American
war, went to his long rest with
rifles thundering a salute across
his grave in the Portsmouth Navy
Yard and a bugle blowing taps.
The horse that carried a marine
corps Colonel through the battles
of Canagary and San Juan Hill
in Cuba, and was wounded in the
latter engagement, died in his
stall at the age of 41 years. Tom
was buried with full military hon
ors.
FREE MOVIES
VIENNA, April 26, —Free movies
are being offered to the unemploy
ed of Vienna. Instead of political
mass meetings, special performan
ces once a week have been arrang
ed by many movie theatres. Ev
ery jobless person producing his
unemployment card is admitted
free of charge or for a low fee.
The city treasury pays the theatre
owners the difference
13 MORE NEEDED
Thirteen more people are wanted ;
by “The Outcast” troupe in order;
that the large gas car can be ob- i
tained from the Alaska Railroad;
to bring all back Sunday, the show j
going on at Anchorage Saturday j
night. If short of the required
number, the cast and three oth

OUT TWO MONTHS
CHICAGO, April 27, —Hazen
“Kiki” Cuyler, the Chicago Cubs
clouting outfielder, will be lost to
the team for two months, it was
learned. Cuyler’s injured ankle,
fractured in spring training, was
examined here by Dr. Ewing W.
Ryerson, the club physician, who
declared Cuyler would be unable
to don his uniform for at least two
1 months.
! No authentic information could
j be ascertained by The Gateway as
j to the truth of today’s rumor that
Augustine Island, a large volcanic
island between Seldovia and Iliam
na but close to the Iliamna shore
line, has vanished. No one lived on
the island.

SEIM CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE DEPLORES
FIRE, IN RESOLUTION
Joining with the majority of
citizens of Seward in defending
the city’s good name from the
suggestion that it gives counte
nance to the burning of a carload
of Alaska Railroad crossties on the
night of April 23, the Seward
Chamber of Commerce has prepar
ed and forwarded to Delegate An
thony J. Dimond the following re
solution, adopted at its Tuesday’s
meeting:
WHEREAS, it appears that on
April 24, 1933, at Seward, Alaska,
a carload of railroad ties purchas
ed by the Alaska Railroad in the
State of Washington was deliber
atetely set fire by a person or per
rons unknowm;
Now therefore, be it resolved by
the Chamber of Commerce of the
City of Seward, Alaska,
That such crime be condemned
in the strongest terms possible,
and that the person or persons
committing this criminal act be
publicly censured by this Chamber.
That although this Chamber
does not v/ithdraw in any degree
from its attitude of open protest
against the purchase of railroad
ties by the Alaska Railroad from
outside the Territory of Alaska, yet
it does deplore and condemn the
use of any such criminal means
by any person or persons to ex
press such protest, and it hereby
extends its sincere regrets to all
proper persons, and particularly to
Hon. Harold L. Ickes, Secretary of
the Interior, that such incendiary
act was committed;
That this Chamber pledges itself
to render any possible ‘aid to the
authorities in the apprehension of
the criminal or criminals responsi
ble and all possible assistance to
prevent a recurrence of any such
crime.
Unanimously adopted this 25th
day of April, 1933, at Seward, 'Al
aska. LEON URBACH,
President.
Attest:
L. J. CHILBERG,
Secretary.

ClIiHTII
j Editor Seward Gateway:
I take these means to publicly
express my attitude to certain
statements made in the Reward
Daily Gateway under date of April
24th, 1933, as having been uttered
by D. C. Brownell, Mayor of the
j town of Seward, concerning the
unfortunate burning of a carload
j of railroad ties on the nieht of
• April 23rd, 1933. In the event that
the act of burning the ties is prov
en of an incendiary nature, I wish
j to condemn the action as the
J work of a crank, moron or corrup
j tionist, whose sole aim lies in spec
; tacularism, by heaping discredit
1 upon a certain class of hard-work -
j ing men, and upon a peaceful, law
i abiding citizenry, to further his own
fantastic ends. Arson and sabot
age, if proven, can not be con
doned under any condition, in a
civilized country such as ours and
| mare particularly in Alaska. It is
! a most regrettable incident, par
ticularly at a time when all
branches of government and in
dustry alike are trying their ut
most to create order out of chaos
and rehabilitate the country as a
whole. Sincerely,
T. W. HAWKINS,
Brown & Hawkins Corporation.

The MS. Discoverer, Capt. Heinie j
Berger, left at midnight for Anch- j
