NAVY FLIERS FINQ
NO TRACE MATTERN
BREMERTON, June 27. — Two
United States Navy fliers, Ensign
William A. Moffet, Jr., and Lieut.
John P. Vest, completed a flight
from Dutch Harbor, Alaska as far
as Kanaga Island, in the middle
Aleutians, two days ago, the Navy
reported yesterday.
The fliers flew in search of Jim
my Mattern, round the world flier,
but found no trace of him.
It was believed that Mattern
might have landed on his hop
across the Pacific from Siberia to
Nome, on one of the small, unin
j habited islands of the Aleutians.
Heavy ice floes in Bearing Sea,
i many miles in extent, delayed
I shipping this spring. The ice ex
I tended well off-shore, blocking the
steamship lanes.

Assurances have come from
Washington to the effect that,
providing there is a general ex
pression from this portion of Al
aska favoring a general advertis-'
ing and publicity campaign for the,
purpose of attracting investing;
capital to Alaska, it may be pos
sible to get quick action on the
matter and possibly get it started
before the summer wanes.
Already the entire plan of cam
The matter was laid before the
Chamber of Commerce at its reg
ular noonday luncheon today,
paign is before the Secretary of
the Interior and has his sympathy.
It is backed by one of the strongest
delegations in Congress which
stands ready to take the matter
up with the Secretary and Presi
dent as soon as there is evidence
of public pressure seeking this aid.
| It can be given under the Emer
i gency Act, permitting the President
to give any aid calculated to assist
in restoring prosperity in the na
tion.
It is proposed to make a complete
survey of every natural resource
in the Territory, create a Natural
Resources Department something
like those of big railroads and com
munities in the United States and
disseminate this information thru
out the nation.
In the plan every section of Al
aska will be represented and each
will benefit.
C. J. Linke has been asked by
supporters of the plan in Congress
: to secure a general expression from
: everyone possible, and immediately
! after this is secured to forward it
, to Washington, where it will be
i placed before the President.
I The affect of such a program,
based upon a careful survey of
natural resources is inestimable,
and is something that has been
needed for the past dozen years,
i It is requested by Mr. Lincke
j that all those who wish to see this
I effort made to restore prosperity
| in Alaska ?,nd in this section in
| particular, write a letter addressed
: to him at Seward, and it will, with
: expressions from Chambers of
Commerce, be immediately sent to
I Washington.

HIT H GOAT
MECCA ACROSS BIT
No bear tracks have been seen
yet by tie-cutters residing near
Fourth of July Creek but the goats
in that reserved area are appar
ently both young, old and healthy.
One resident of that area reports
that a buck, one evening even be
came so venturesome that he took
a stroll past his cabin window to
see what was going on.
At other times, however, the
goats cling to their precipitous
habitats and can be observed only
early in the morning or just at
dusk, when they come out to feed.
Rabbits, once real numerous in
the district, are on the increase it
is said, as many young ones are
sighted each day.
The regular weekly luncheon and
business meeting of the Seward
Chamber of Commerce was held at
noon today at Cameron’s Cafe.
