WASHINGTON, June 28. —
t>ne of the most perplexing prob
lems in Alaska for several years
past, insofar as the Federal govern- j
ment is concerned, seems to havej
been the reindeer industry and;
that it has not been solved entire-1
ly to the satisfaction of the new j
administration is indicated by the!
fact that the Department of the!
Inerior has detailed ar. investiga-!
tor to go to Alaska and make an- j
other study of the industry. He is j
Roy Nash and he will make an;
exhaustive survey of the whole'
reindeer business. His headquarters j
will be at Nome. j

The National Recovery Act, in
which is incorporated the Public
Works Act, passed the Senate with:
Alaska fully protected as regards;
highway appropriations. As origin-1
ally drawn, there was no question!
but that other kinds of public
works could be carried there. The
highway section, however, was a
matter of grave doubt. The Dele
gate secured the cooperation of
senators and the bill as passed by
the Senate makes it possible for
roads in Alaska to be constructed,
repaired or improved from public
works appropriations, and it is not
thought likely that this section will
be changed in conference.

A recent caller at Delegate Di
mond’s office in Washington was
Charles V. Leckie. A brother-in
law of Judge Overfield, he was de-1
puty clerk of court at Fairbanks j
from 1912 to 1915 under judges j
Overfield and Fuller, and later hej
lived on the Coast. He was lastj
in Alaska in 1929^ and came to
Washington the following year to |
live with his invalid mother.

Three Alaskan nominations were i
confirmed by the Senate. William j
A. Holzheimer was named as U.;
S. Attorney in the First Division1
and Ralph J. Rivers as U. S. At
torney in the Fourth Division. Joe
McDonald becomes U. S. Marshal
for the 'Fourth Division. The
nomination of George P. Alexander,
of Oregon, to be judge of the First
Division was not confirmed by the
Senate at this time.

In response to a request from
the mayor of Douglas, Delegate Di
mond is endeavoring to hasten
the start of construction of a new
Office of Indian Affairs school at
Douglas. The sum of $8,000 has
already been appropriated for the
building but for some reason or
other construction has not been
begun.
The Delegate is engaged in for
mulating a public works program
for Alaska for presentation to the
administrator of the public works
program. He is assembling every
legitimate project, rejecting at the
same any suggestion of “pork
barrelism” which might endanger
the entire program. The most im
portant project on the list, and at
the same time one of the most
important to the Territory, is the
American section of the Interna
tional Highway. A snag was en
countered for a while when it was
learned that the State Department
appropriation, out of which comes
the money for the printing of a
report by the International High
way Commission, was virtually
gone, and as the report was to be
important in the presentation of
the project some rapid work was
necessary. As a result of the efforts
of the Delegate and Major Mal
colm Elliott the report was to be
printed. A limited number of copies
will be available for distribution
from the Delegate’s office and will
be sent to those who first request
them.
* * * *
Regulations with respect to ve
hicles using the Richardson High
way have been prepared but have
not yet been signed by the Sec
retary of the Interior who is out
of Washington, so it will be' a day
or two yet before the exact amount
of fees to be imposed will be learn
ed.
Four men have been placed to
work on the Lowell Creek and the
waters have been diverted from
the fiume into an old creek chan
nel. This is being done in order
that repairs can be made to the
flume.
That successfully groomed, smart
looking coiffure you have long
wanted can be obtained for $7.50
from PEARL HENRY. Her DUART
permanents give the fastidious ap
pearance necessary to a perfect
ensemble. Call ADAMS 89 for an
appointment; any kind of beauty
work done which you desire.
