BUILDING SEA-SLED

QUINCY, Mass., Aug., 23, (/P)—
A sea sled designed to cross the
broad bosom of the Atlantic
ocean at 75 miles an hour and
'carrying 30 persons and their bag
gage is being built here by Paul
Dudley, 19 years old, of Fitch
burg, assisted by E. E. Growd naval
architect of Quincy.
The craft will be 40 and one
hal f feet long, with a beam of
nine feet. Above the water sled
is a wing with a 42 foot spread,
designed to give lift enough to
keep, the boat skimming along
the top of the water. Three mo
tors totaling 365 horepower will
furnish the power, applied thru
standard airplane propellers.
NEW LANDING FIELD
The Council landing field will be
completed at the old site as soon as
the equipment is released at Golo- j
vin. Ross J. Kinney, superintend
ent, will inspect the sites at Lost j
river, Wales and Haycock and if '
the proper location can be found )
work will start immediately. All
fields will be properly marked and
wind vanes placed.

(Continued from Pajre Three)
ing from the Interior, could go
direct to the lodge, or disembark
enroute south,; that the pleasures
to be found in that locality would
suffice to hold them for many
days.
Again was heard the plaint that
all tourists are not “saps” and
that prices, in most instances on
commodities, were entirely too
high. He said he had found in
stances where Alaska curios were
being sold which he knew were
made either- in the States or in
Germany or Japan. This should
cease, he said, as Alaska ought to
have sufficient bona fide things
to offer the public.
The insects bothered him and
other tourists and he thought
that in cases, like the present
season when they appear to be
worse than usual, a fleet of air
planes could easily drop a liquid
or gas detrimental to insects but
not harmful to other life.
Revealing a fund of knowledge
and information on world com
merce, Mr. Wistar talked consid
erably on Alaska’s resources com
paring them with and their ef
fect upon the American market, j
In conclusion he said it has been
his pleasure to have visited what;
are supposed to be the world’s;
most beautiful and finest harbors;
these included Rio Janeiro har
bor, and the Bay of Naples. Both
Df 'these are magnificent, he said,
especially thq latter from which
vantage point the live volcano,
Vesuvius, is seen and, with the
narvelous irredescent waters, is 1
i vision never to be forgotten.
“But permit me to say here
that even recalling the old saying
See the Bay of Naples then die”—
your Resurrection Bay exceeds
inything I have ever seen. It sur- !
>asses in both scenic, largeness and j
ocation and among the .towering ]
he grandeur of falling waters and J
^earning glaciers is an inspira
ion.”

FINDS WHITE SHEEP
WITH BLACK TAILS
SAN DIEGA, Aug., 23, (/P)—Wild
white sheep with black tails were
the lure which took Robert Froth
ingham into the Yukon and thru
almost impassable parts of the
I Campbell mountain range.
The former New York magazine
executive succeeded in bringing
down with a rifle an old ram of the
species for which he searched.
The Campbell mountains lie be
tween the head waters of the Pelly
river and Frances lake, which is an
unfailing reservoir for Frances ri
ver. This district is right on the
divide between the Yukon river
and the Leard river.
