BRAZIL RENT LRV1I BRINGS
ns to officikl bank
RIO DE JANEIRO, June 27. (A5)
—The provisional government of
Brazil has decreed that the three
months’ advance rent, which all
tenants must pay, shall be depos
ited in a government operated sav
ings bank.
Hitherto the landlords have had
use of these funds which were
legally demanded from renters of
apartments, houses and business
offices.
The tenant now gets four per
cent in interest but the landlord is
protected by a certificate naming
him as payee should the tenant
default in rent.

AT THE NATIONAL
CAPITAL. WASH.
(By Will A. Steel)
WASHINGTON, D. C. June 27. —
Harry M. Gillman, who has been
representing the Interior Depart
ment at the Exposition in Paris,
has returned to Washington and
! will proceed to perfect the ar
rangements for Alaska’s exhibit at
the American Fair, to be held in
Atlantic City, July 16th to Aug
ust 26. He will have charge of
the Interior Department exhibit
and expects cooperation upon the
part of various Chambers of Com
merce in Alaska.
P. N. Neal, who has travelled all
over Alaska as a post office in
spector for many years past, was
in Washington last week. While
here he took up the matter with
the Department of filling the site
and surroundings for a park, in
connection with the new post of
fice and Federal building at Ket
chikan. The sum of $10,000 had
been appropriated for filling of
site, which will be done by the
Board of Engineers under Major
Malcolm Elliott. There has been
allocated for the building, but not
yet appropriated $400,000. In a vi
sit to the Supervising Architect’s
office Mr. Neal found that the
blue prints and specifications had
not yet been completed for the
Fairbanks public building, with
the probability that bids would
not be received and the contract
awarded until possibly too late to
do much work on the building
this seasn.
Alaska was given considerable
publicity the other morning by a
Washington newspaper in referr
ing to the letter and maps sent
by Delegate Wickersham to Col.
Charles A. Lindbergh, suggesting
the advisability of making his
flight to Asia via Alaska. The Col.
has indicated that he will make the
flight early in July, and has un
der consideration four different
routes, with the probability that
[however he goes, it will be in a
j sea p*ane equipped with pontoons,
i which could land on rivers and
j lakes and would be as safe to
(descend on land as if the plane
I had wheels. The one route the
Lindberghs are considering and
which would not favor Alaska is
via Greenland and Spitzberge, up
in the Arctic, then to the north
ern European mainland—Norway
or Russia and then down and ac
ross 4,500 miles of Asia. The other
routes that they are considering
are, (1) Across the United States
or Canada, up the Pacific Coast
to Alaska, along the Aleutian Is
lands to the Kamchatka Penin
sula of Siberia, and down the
Japanese Kurile Islands to Japan
proper; (2) To Alaska as in the
above route, then up beyond the
Bering sea across the narrow Ber
ing Strait to the Siberian main
land, and so down; (3) Through
Canada to Hudsons Bay, then al
ong the Northern coast of Canada
to Alaska and Siberia.
