State advisory boards to serve!
under the Public Works Adminis
tration, composed of three members
for each state, together with 10 re-,
gional advisors, were appointed
last week, Boards were not appoint-,
ed for the territories, the District
of Columbia or possessions. j
It, was explained to Delegate Di- (
mond that public works for Alas- ,
ka will be administered directly by,
j the Department of the Interior. An
engineer to serve in an advisory,
capacity will be appointed and it
was said that he is to be a resi
dent of the Territory.
Delegate Dimond received a let
ter the other day from Bob Shel
don and Harry Phillips which was
carried from Fairbanks to New
York by Wiley Post- Typed on the
envelope was “Via Wiley Post. Not
Parcel Post.” The Delegate wishes
to assure the senders it came by
first class mail.
Meet the middle-aged army of
f i c e r in Washington and the
chances are he has been in Alas- j
ka. An old friendship was renewed
when Lieutenant-Colonel Louis A.
Kunzig called on Delegate Dimond
a short time ago. Col. Kunzig is
I now stationed at Fort Washington,
Maryland, which is not far from the
I Capital.
1 In 1905 and 1906 he was at Fort
Seward, now Chilkoot Barracks, and
| from 1911 to 1913 was at Fort Lis
t | cum. From 1913 to 1916 Col. Kun
j: zig served with the Alaska Road

Henry B. having graduated from
West Point in 1930 and William B.

Incidentally, Brig. Gen. George B. i
Pillsbury, now assistant to the chief
of army engineers, was first en- j
gineer officer of the Alaska Road!
Commission when that organization j
had its headquarters at Skagway. ,
Rumor, which notoriously travels*
faster than fact, moves here at
double speed. In no respect is that j
more evident than with reference:
to the endeavor to have a free mar- J
ket for gold established in the Unit- j
ed States. One day almost everyone j
is sure such a market will be au- j
thorized and the next day evidence1
seems to point directly to the con-;
trary. The truth is that there is j
no s 1 i g h t e s t intimation of the i
course the Administration will take,!
but rulings to date have not been j
favorable to the cause of those!
seeking a free market.

This column proved too optimis-/
tic last week. It took the liberty (^
of announcing that the flights of/
Jimmy Mattern and Wiley Post/
were going to make the public more/
conscious of A.laska’s geography.
Shortly thereafter, after Post’s air- .
plane had been repaired at Flat
and he was on his way to New!
York again, a Washington paper
headlined "Post Streaking Down
Yukon.’’ a course, which if had ac- !
jtually been followed, would have
been calculated to return the flier
1 to Siberia. At any rate, Alaska re-,
ceived a lot of publicity from his j
flight.
During his brief radio talk at i
New York when he was receiving 1
the welcome of the city Post took t
occasion to refer to “Good old Joe*
Crosson” and spoke affectionately 1
of the Alaska pilot, who flew repair :
parts to him at Flat.
