(By Babe Hayes)
! Arthur L. Williams, President of
! the Exchange Bank of Clayton,
! New York, was through Alaska in
J 1929 taking the Yukon River trip.
! In a letter some time ago he s^ys
j among other things:
i “Thanks so much for the copy
| of the paper giving the account of
! Father Hubbard’s exploration of
the Alaska Peninsula. What won
derful volcanoes those two are and
how I would like to see them. We
must certainly spend a whole sum
mer in Alaska some time.
“Upon our return here we had one
hundred of our best Alaska films
made into lantern slides and they
are beautiful. Have shown them in
all the nearby cities and towns and
many have become interested in
Alaska and some will be up your
way this Summer.
“We are to show these slides to
a group of friends in our own home
this evening.”

W. A. Lalor, a prominent railroad
; official of Washington, D. C. (now
* retired and living in Los Angeles)
! made the round trip to Kodiak in
1930. Speaking of his trip he says:
“I congratulate you on your suc
cess in making Cordova the meet
ing point of the North Pacific, so to
speak.
“Your cheerful, friendly greetings
will long be remembered by the
undersigned as well as many, many
others.”

Prof. Wm. H. Vogel, head of the
Department of Art at the Cincin
nati .Ohio Schools, in writing to
some Alaska friends says:
“Remember me to “Babe” Hayes.
If Alaska had a few more men as
aggresssive as he is in spreading
propaganda it would be no time
before the population would be
greatly increased, especially in the
Summer time.”

AIRWAYS MIKES UNIQUE
RECORD FOR PAST YEAR
The Alaska-Washington Airways,
during the fiscal year ending last
June 30, carred a total of 4,922
passengers in the Territory, cover
ing 161,141 statute and 574,638 pas
senger miles, according to the an
nual report made to the Territorial
Highway Engineer by A. B. Hayes,
Alaska manager, published in the
Juneau Empire.
The operations were carried on
without a single mishap and no
forced landings, nor any accident
of any kind entailing injury to
passengers, employees or equip
ment. This is the second year
in succession that the company
has established such a record.
The report, which covers com
mercial operations only shows 3,890
passengers carried on cross coun
try flights, and 1,341 on sightsee
ing trips, beginning and terminat
ing at the same place. In addi
tion the company transported 3,
299 pounds of express. Five planes
were used in its operations, but
not more than three of them were
stationed in the Territory at any
one time.
The company had one accident
in Territorial waters, but not in
commercial work. This occurred
last fall when Pat Renehan, speed
ing to the rescue of a lost party
in Northern British Columbia, dis
[ appeared and is believed to have
| crashed into the sea south of Ket
chikan.
Operations Manager Anscel Eck
mann, who conducted an extensive
search for Renehan, flew 12,000
miles which are not included in the
commercial operations report.

U. S. Plum RITE
INCRUSE IS SLOWER
The rate of increase in the
population of the United States
has been found by the Bureau of
the Census to be slowing down,
and for the next few years the
population will be computed on
the basis of a net increase of one
person every 36 seconds instead of
one in each 23 seconds, according
to an announcement by the Bu
reau in the United States Daily,
July l, based on the latest avail
able statistics for births, deaths,
immigration and emigration.
As a result of the conclusions
reached by the Bureau, it reset its
automatic “clock” or register of
population growth, July 1, to ac
cord with the new basis of cal
culations. The Bureau’s announce
ment said that under the revised
rate of increase the population
of the country on July 1 was 124,
069,651 whereas under the former
basis the population would have
been recorded as 124,833,818.
