BLAME IT ON KERB
It has become the fashionable thing to blame Mr.
Hoover for every ill to which the country is heir. If you
lost money on the stock market, blame it on Hoover. If
the ptarmigan do not appear plentifully, a careful inves
tigation will probably disclose Mr. Hoover busy shooing
the birds out of the country. If the elusive pay streak
evades you, Hoover probably has something to do with it.
But in spite of the tough streak we are passing thru,
we are basicly sound. We knowr in our hearts that Mr.
Hoover is able and honest. He has hadfour years of thej
Hoover is able and honest. He has had four years of the

SEWARD—KEY AVIATION BASE
It is with great interest that Seward and the residents
of this area and to the Westward watch the accomplish
ments which Seward business men, under the auspices of
the Seward Chamber of Commerce, are trying to achieve
the results which nowT appear more optimistic than ever.
Seward business men are attempting to solve the problem j
which so far appears to have stood in the way of the de- j
velopment of air transportation in this part of Alaska with 1
Seward as a base. The problem is the providing of han- j
gar facilities for the convenience of planes and which
must be constructed before planes will be stationed here
for operation out of Seward.
Seward is in a position where it can offer much to
the development of aerial transportation. It is the ter
minus of steamship lanes which connects Interior and
Westward Alaska with the Outside and is many hours,
perhaps days, nearer to the destination of one coming
from Seattle, enroute to the Interior or to the Westward
and is closer to the man arriving from the Westward or
the Interior who is enroute to Seattle.
The time element, which enters into transportation,
mail carrying and travel, as can readily be seen, is im
portant in Alaska. Probably more so than in the States.
An operator comes in from Seattle or points south and it
is necessary for him to land men, equipment and supplies
on his ground as soon as possible in order to take advan
tage of all the water available and also to get in as full a
season as possible. And so it is with the fish packer and
othm big industries which mean so much to Alaska.
From appearances, all that is necessary to develop
aerial transportation out of Sewrard is to start the ball
rolling by providing a hangar and the aerial traffic will
develop itself.
The business men who are putting every effort for
ward to secure the hangar are doing a great deal for the
City of Seward when they undertake to stimulate the
aviation possibilities of this area. It is good to note this
local revived unity which spells success in every instance.
A method has been developed in Switzerland for com
bining tin with pulp, making a virtually indestructible
and fireproof paper for banknotes.
