“THE SPIRIT OF VALDEZ”
The wreck of the plane “Spirit of Valdez” was cer
tainly unfortunate and again brings to mind the isolation
of this vast Northern Empire and. of the tremendous
handicaps facing new enterprises in the Territory, with
particular reference to the airplane business.
But for the viewing of the falling plane by residents
of the Copper River district, 25 miles away, who immed
iately set forth for the scene, three imprisoned occupants
of the plane would probably have died.
Great credit must be given for the skillful control
Owen Meals, pilot, maintained, when the storm struck the
plane with all its pent up fury and dashing it to the
ground. The citizens of Seward had been looking for
ward with pleasure to Pilot Meals’ firrst flight here from
Valdez; we sincerely trust the “Spirit of Valdez” will soon
soar again.
0. 0. McIntyre declares the dumbest girl in New
York has been found. She was fired from a five and 10
cent store because she couldn’t remember the prices.
MEN OF AFFAIRS BEHIND MINING
if
A concerted movement is under way to afford mine
operators of Colorado better ore-treatment facilities. Men
of affairs are all talking mining and this summer! has seen
the starting up of many new enterprises in that State.
A vital factor in the complete success of these new
ventures is now holding attention. Modern treatment
plants are the need. Vast mineral wealth lies fallow both
in Colorado and Alaska awaiting capital to develop these
riches and build mills and smelters to extract the values
economically.
A paradoxical political pun: Secretary of the Inter
ior Work has resigned to go to work.

The article:

curb upon one’s righteous anger, how
much the World has lost in losing
Amundsen and how much gained by
the rescue of Nobile?
Norway has lost her greatest citi_

came such when he, Nobile, was em_
'ployed by an American financier to
aot, under the guidance of Amundsen,
as Captain of the Norge. (Time, May
17, 1926).
i
The employs, Nobile, said afterward
of his employer: ‘All Ellsworth did
was to give money for the flight. It
was I, Nobile, wrho was responsible for
the Norge’s success.”
Benito Mussolini also said in Rome:
“In vain did others try to steal the
glory! I say in a voice of thunder
that oyu, Nobile, you an Italian, wise,
ly guided the Norge to th^ end of her
extraordinary voyage.”
As a Norwegian, my bloodi boiled at
these words which I have kept. But
perhaps we ana a patient people. Our
newspapers continued not unfriendly
to Nobile; and when he set out in the
Italia, a dirigible of his own design,
to prove that he, he, HE could circle
the Pole, we wished him well. It was!
only when the faulty design of the
Italia caused her to crumple, that my
own heart became troubled. Too well
I knew, as did all Norwegians, that
Amundsen would feel compelled to
rescue Nobile, becauaa the Italian had
wronged him.
I say nothing of the chaw whom
Capt. Nobile has abandoned on the
Polar ice. As the years pass General
Nobile will grow so weary of explain,
ing why he was the first to leave bis
ship. Those explanations will be
sufficient punishment.
