LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

CARBURETTED HYDROGEN IS
LIGHTER AND MORE EFFI
CIENT THAN GAS
FREDERICHSHAFEN, Germany,
Nov. 24. (JP)—Construction secrets of
the world’s largest and first gas-burn
ing dirigible, the L. Z. 127, have been
partially disclosed by Dr. Hugo Eck
ener, commander.
The gas fuel is marsh gas or car
buretted hydrogen with the chemical
formula CH4. Much lighter and more
efficient than gasoline or benzol, Dr.
Eckener said, the gas draws its great
est advantage from the fact that when
it explodes in the engine cylinders
one of the products is water vapor.
The vapor, passing out through the
exhausts of the five 420-horsepower
Maybach motors, will be condensed in
tanks; part of it used to replenish wa
ter in the cooling systems of the mo
tors and the rest stored as ballast.
As ballast, the exhaust water will
more than make up for the loss in
weight the dirigible will suffer when
fuel is consumed en route so that in
stead of letting out expensive hydro
gen from the gas bag either before
landing or when forced into high al
titudes, water can be discharged from
the tanks. The use of carburetted hy
drogen will cut down by 35 per cent
the initial useful load carried by the
dirigible.
PARADE OF FASHION
All-white weddings again are fash

Joan Southey for her marriage to the
Master of Falkland. Her dress was
of “moyen age” white satin with a

soms in her hair. Her nine young
bridesmaids were attired in white
frocks and wore wreaths of jasmine
in their hair.
