ALASKAN AIR RAIDS
Timely resolutions have been sponsored by the Alaska
Territorial Chamber of Commerce looking to the establish
ment by the federal government of adequate airplane bases
and landing fields in Alaska.
The Anchorage Chamber has endorsed the resolutions.
The Juneau Chamber, which inaugurated the movefnent,
has done likewise, and chambers of other cities doubtless
will support the rpovement.
Other organizations in the Territory can help the move
ment greatly by adopting similar resolutions and sending
them forward. Chambers of Commerce of Pacific coast cit
ies which derive a great benefit from Alaskan trade and
who are vitally interested in the development and safety
of this Territory should do as much.
The resolutions ask for nothing unreasonable. In fact,
the federal government has indicated its interest in Al
aska. The sending of the army bombing fleet and the navy
squadrons to Alaska-last summer doubtless were indications
of the interested the federal government takes in such mat
ters in Alaska. The administration should be supported in
its broad program.
- Alaska, as Col. H. H. Arnold, commander of the bomb
ing fleet which was here last summer, says in a letter refer
red to in another column of this issue, will be set back 20
years at least if pot provided with proper bases and fields.
It will not be long until Congress meets. The necessary
endorsements to obtain favorable considerations in Con
gress should be forwarded now. Various boards and com
missions may also meet in the near future and any support
ing materiala forwarded now will be a timely aid. Every or
ganization sending in resolutions in line with the movement!
will be rendering a real service—Anchorage Times.
The brain trust better go out on the high prairie and
make one acre of trees grow before they charge up a thous
and miles to the taxpayers.
One good thing about the declining birth rate, perhaps,
may be the fact that public officials will have fewer relativ
es to put on the public payrolls..
No wonder it took forty-two years to build Solomon’s
temple says a Hopkins man. He had one thousand and one
wives. Think of the suggestions of various alterations they
made to the contractors.

THAT WONDERFUL ADVERTISING
A smartly dressed, smooth talking gentlemen has drop
ped in to discuss a few matters with John Doe the grocer. It
develops that the gentlemen is also interested in having
Grocer Doe buy a very unique and highly effective advertis
ing campaign.
“This advertising is something different,” he tells the
grocer. “You can’t get it anywhere else. Your newspaper
can’t provide it. This will be something exclusive with you.
Just sign here.”
But before signing here,' there, or anywhere else, it
might be smart to stop and ask yourself how anything that
good escape the men who spend millions of dollars yearly
for advertising.
Men who spend millions for advertising also spend
thousands to test their advertising and be sure that they are
getting their money’s worth. No promising proposition or
1 scheme is blindly turned down. They waste proportionately
less of their advertising money than most small advertisers
because they seek results—not something different.
General Motors, Henry Ford, the big oil refiners, depart
ment stores, and food men don’t spend their money for ad
j vertising in home newspapers because they like the editorial
i policy or because they haven’t been offered hundreds of
schemes and novelties. They advertise in newspapers for re
: suits—to make money.
Gadget advertising has no place in the retailer’s budget,
unless he can afford to be more wasteful than the big boys.
The success or failure of business concerns depend up
on their relations with the public.
Cheerfulness and courtesy attract business to a store.
. Stores will rise or fall with the reputations they main
tain.
The building of a business is an endless chain of doing
one thing after another to make it a great center of service.
•
Business concerns appeal to the public through ad
vertising.
They tell the public in a pleasing manner what they
have to sell.
The modern business man knows that the best quality is
good for his customers.
Newspaper advertising is the best means of obtaining
the steady sale of merchandise.

C "DON’T TKY TO PROVE THAT THE MAN WITH A NEW
IDEA IS WRONG. HELP HIM PROVE HE IS RIGHT.”
.The old saying: “Adversity Makes Us All Akin”, was
never more vividly exemplified than during and since the
calamity experienced by Nome’s citizenry just a few short
weeks ago.
At the height of th«f conflagration, when the fire demon
was devouring everything in sight, everyone forgot past diff
erences as well as personal safety and gave his efforts and
strength for the assistance and protection of his neighbor.
What an ideal city Nome will build into if this consid
erate spirit is perpetuated. It can be. It is simply g'C*
community demonstration of Hie old “GOLDEN RULE”.
If there were no better or higher reward offered for such a
utopia, the advertisement in itself would be profitable for
Nome would soon become known and famous as “THE
MODEL CITY”, and it moral credit fixed at the highest rating.
