SECTIONAL SELFISHNESS
Under the camouflage of economy the Fairbanks
News-Miner launches a broadside against Alaskan Radio!
broadcast service, which, it charges, is supported by a j
subsidy.
Before launching into an attack on this or that, the
News-Miner should infoim itself. Evidently it does not'
know that for every dollar appropriated from the Terri-j
torial treasury it receives such service in return which:
if confined to the old method of slow communication and,
customs, would double die amount which may be given!
each year to the two radio broadcast stations, Anchor- j
age and Ketchikan. _ ;
Evidently the News-Miner does not know that this |
radio broadcast service is at the call of the Territory at|
all hours for the purpose of broadcasting calls for help:
when an airplan* is overdue; when some one may be in
distress; that they are daily the recipients of official re-'
ports dealing with weather, aiding the sick and bringing
gladness to the hearts of hundreds in the oudands, with
their music and announcements.
It is quite evident it does not know or care what the
value of this marked advance in science has been to men j
and women far out in the wilderness, in keeping them
informed of local and world events, breaking the tragic I
monotony.
It would be Arcadian in the extreme to wish to cut
Alaska off from the culture provided thru these valuable j
agencies, such as is nightly taken to the most humble
abode in the far Aung reaches of the frontier.
Not onv should the sums be alloted for broadcast;
service but it should be taken advantage of more exten- j
sively in advertising Alaska.
As a matetr of information, stations such as KFQD
at Anchorage and IvGBU, at Ketchikan, were established!
maintained and perfected by a small group of patriotic |
citizens, who have never taken one penny of profit, not!
even decent wages from their investment and enterprise,
and carried on without a murmer until their laudable
work was finally recognized.
If the News-Miner wishes to go back to the dogteam
and spruce-pole bunks there is none to gainsay them.
But progress is progress, especially if it contributes1
to the benefit of the whole.
Above all things do not cripple our radio service. It!
is destined within the next year to play a leading part I
in performing a service the News-Miner never has con
tributed to—broadcasting the resources of the Terri
tory to the most distant limits of the world.
While President Franklin Delano Roosevelt is living;
up to the first sellable of his given name he seems to!
have dropped the Dela from the second name.

RY ADMIRAL EVANS
Seward passengers on the Ad

perfect voyage from Seattle thru

Ketchikan was discovered enjoy
ing some rare clear weather and
boasting of other recent days.
Northward from Ketchikan to
Cape St. Elias the skies were clear
and the sea calm, with Mounts
Fairweather and St. Elias stand
ing white and clear against the
blue. Sitka was the coldest spot
touched during the voyage, the
temperature there being around
the freezing point.
The trip was expedited by the
usual skillful navigating of Cap
tain A. W. Nickerson and pilots,
a,nd enlivened. by the cheerful
services of the rest of the crew.
“Five-Fathom” Dewey, who has
sailed the high seas for well-nigh
on to 50 year, found no difficulty
in initiating his passengers into
the mysteries of the rolling deep,
while Purser Charlie Miller, Stew
ard Don Stewart, and Stewardess
Croft with their assistants, kept
up the accustomed hospitality of
the line. j

engers included the following:

ifornia.
Mr. Sharp brings news that
the Fairbanks Exploration Com

has bought Ester Creek and ex
pects to employ 600 more men be
ginning next month.
“Thirty-two years is a long
time,” said Mr. Sharp, comment

sojourn, “but the glorious “Out
side” isn’t attractive enough to
keep me from the hills in the
working season.”
John Mackwiz, young Alaska
prospector along the railroad belt,
was a week-end business visitor
in the city.
