SEWARD ON CONTINENTAL MAP
On Page 1 of this issue is published the 1931 Texaco j
National Road Reports Touring Map of the United'
States, an entirely new compilation showing principal \
cities of the country, roads, highways and distances i
checked with latest official measurements.
Through The Gateway’s efforts, Seward is included
on the map which will be regularly published in 480
odd newspapers scattered throughout the United States.
It will also be brought to the attention of the 100,000
tourists to whom the Texas Oil Company will send copies.
Without attempting to prophecy what the influence
of circulation and distribution of the map will be, the
possibilities for good from such publicity are unlimited,
especially at a time w*hen the interest of the whole coun
try has been attracted to Alaska in the past few years
to a degree hitherto unparalleled.
Measured by the area of territory covered and the
number of maps distributed, the cultivation of public
interest in Seward and Alaska is too manifest to require
dwelling upon. True, Alaska proper is not shown on the
rnap but we have made a start and results should jus
tify the effort
Planes fairly rained in Seward Friday. Together
with the “Alaska Missionary” cruiser, five different
planes were in town during various periods of the day.
And still Seward has no plane based here.
HYPHEN II15 STILL
III AIR; ? IRK DOWN
MOSCOW, Sept. 12. (ZP>—The
Hyphen II passed over this city
late last night headed for Kazan.
The weather was clear and no
wind.
The Question Mark was forced
down at Nieukerk on the Nether
land frontier, near Dusseldorf,
Germany, by a leak in the gas
tank. Codos said they lost nearly
1,000 gallons.
John Rosness, railroad engineer,
returned home Friday from the
Northern division where he has
been stationed with the extra crew.
This crew has since been pulled
off but Mr. Rosness will probably
be attached to the freight crew on
the Southern division
UNDER NEW RULING
In the Ketchikan commissioner’s
court recently was drawn the first
jury under the new law passed by
the last session of the Territorial
Legislature requiring the names of
four-fifths of the voters at the
last regular election to be in the
jury box. Under the old law it
was necessary to have 300 names
in the box, says the Chronicle.
CANADA RATES UP
When mailing letters to Canada,
be prepared to have more loose
change for stamps. Postal rates
to all points in Canada, according
to the Ketchikan Chronicle, have
been advanced, effective Septem
ber 1.
“Really, I can’t play golf,” the
sweet young thing said. “I don’t
even know how to hold the caddy.”
I
BE AT ASCOT RACES
LOS ANGELES,, Sept. 12. (/P>—
Louise Snyder, winner of the In
dianapolis automobile racing clas
sic on Memorial Day, will attend
; the Ascot races on the Pacific
Coast this year.
POLICE BRUTALITY -
IS BROUGHT TO LIGHT
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 11. —In
I vestigations of police brutality,
! which recently nearly resulted in
jeveral grand jury indictments, were
; given additional incentive when
| three new cases of police brutality
were brought to light.
One of the cases is described as
that of an unsuccessful liquor raid
on an apartment. Not finding any
liquor it is alleged that the officers
severely beat the occupant of the
apartment and insulted his wife.
BE SOLD OUT
SEATTLE, Sept. 12. (^—Indica
tions now are that the football
game—the last of the coming sea
son—between the Notre Dame and
Army teams, will be sold out long
before the 1931 season opens. This
is taken to be a contradiction to
the belief that gate receipts at
j football games this year will would
show a distinct falling off.
DAMAGE DONE BY HURRICANE
SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, Sept. 12.
(/P)—A hurricane, blowing 110
miles an hour, struck here Thurs
day night, causing considerable
minor damage. Communication
was cut wTith the interior, railway
s service was paralyzed, electric pow
; er plants were put out of opera
’ tion and phones made useless.
