FORMER SEW! MAN
SELECTED IS ESCORT
FOR ADMIRAL BYRD
One of the proudest members
of the Los Angeles police force is
Earl Reid of the Hollywood Divi
sion, who has been directing traf
fic at the intersection of Holly
wood Boulevard and Vine Street
for many years.
Mr. Reid, former popular Sew'
ard resident who, with Mrs. Reid
left here about eight years ago,
is justified in feeling proud be
cause when Admiral Richard E.
Byrd, who made the heroic and
hazardous flights over the North
and South Poles visited Los An
geleis, Reid was detailed to ac
company the explorer on all his
movements while in the city.
This was an easy task for Reid
for the reason he trained with
Byrd at the same training camp
for service in the World War. Be
sides Reid knows his Hollywood
and is on speaking terms with
more celebrities in Cinealand than
any other officer in the depart
ment.
“Betty N td," is now on sale at the Alaska
Shop. A splendid record!

Alaska’s Trade for Year 1930
But a few generations ago Alaska was almost unknown.
Out of her earth, rocks, forests and seas has sprung her
industrial wealth of today. According to statistics com
piled by the United States Department of Commerce at
Washington, D. C., the total commerce of Alaska for the
past year amounted to $90,232,413. Of this total amount
of trade, $57,187,146.00 represents merchandise, gold and
silver shipped from Alaska, while $33,045,267.00 represents
the value of like commodities shipped to Alaska during the
game period. The balance of trade in favor of Alaska for
the year 1930 amounts to $24,141,879.00.
The following compilation covers the most important
items of trade. Space here does not permit publication of
full report.
