appreciation of this cordial welcome
to me and to tell you the task given
me fh Alaska will be made a great
deal easier through the sympathy and
jcooperation of Alaskans. The speaker
; was Major Malcolm Elliott, Engineer
Corps, U. S. A., who- has just assumed
the Presidency of the Alaska Road

“One month ago I was in New Or
leans, settled, I thought, for the next
three years. The change in climate
has been violent to me, who I fear,
am poorly qualified at this time for
the rigid, vigorous climate here.
“The problems of the Alaska Road
Commission and your town at the
present time no doubt are of interest
to you. Though there are no major
projects touching Seward as yet I
believe you will agree with me what
benefits one part of the Territory ben
efits the remainder. In this respect,
the Richardson Highway. The high
way benefits Seward to the extent of
the many who make the so-called loop
trip. Some of the travelers are at

the highway.

of the policy of the distinguished men
preceding myself. We aim to give
model road service and mileage.
“Mileage to the practical routes of
commerce industry and development.
A thousand miles of passable roads :
and trails in Alaska are, I feel sure, of
more practical value than a hundred
miles of paved boulevards.
“It will constantly be our aim to put *
in a road, or trail, as the situation may
demand, where they are needed, the
aim being to cover the Territory with
as much road communication as pos
sible.

NEED NOT WORRY ABOUT
LOWELL CREEK ANY MORE
Sirs MAJOR GILLETTE
“ I am glad to be with you again,
we had a fine trip up, but how cold it
gets/' were the opening, remarks of
Major Douglas H. Gillette, Engineer
Officer, U. S. Army, Alaska Road Com
mission, who, with the honor guest,
Major Malcolm Elliott, was among the
prominent guests at the dinner recep
tion Saturday afternoon in the Seward
Grill, held under the aflspices of the
Chamber of Commerce.
“ Without taking away any of Major
Elliott’s thunder I am sure you will
not fine the policy of the Alaska Road
Commission violently upset by the
change in administration. Major Elliott
and I have argued about Lowell Creek
today. The project has been reported
on favorably to Congress, and, it is
rumored, one Committee has already
reported in its favor through Congress
has not yet convened.
“Rest assured, we will do the best
we can. We have given the project
our close attention and Seward need
not worry any more about Lowell
Creek.

H. E. Ryder, left today for Fairbanks.

We SUSPECT that there are some smok
ers who do not discriminate and who,
because of that, have been denied the
enjoyment of a real cigarette. On the
other hand, we know we buy the choicest
tobaccos for Camels and Camel smokers
outnumber any others in the world.
Camel leads the world today. Because
millions and millions of Camel smokers
have tried other brands and remained
loyal to Camel. Claims cannot mislead
them. They want tobacco goodness—
not claims.
