BATTLESHIP OF
AIR PERFECTED
FRENCH NAVY
PARIS, Nov. — A flying battle
ship equipped with torpedoes,
bombs, machine guns and light can
non, has just been perfected by
French naval engineers. Taking it?
place alongside France’s recently
perfected flying cannon land planes,
tjie new air monster is a gigantic tri
motored seaplane with amazing ver
satility in aerial warfare. The
French ministry of marine, which is
strengthening its war branch inde
pendently of the ministry of air, is
said to be planning a large squad
ron of these new seaplanes, which
are deemed more efficient that bat
tleships for sea combat. The devel
opment of seaplane warfare is re
ported as highly important to naval
powers like the United States with
its long coast lines.
A fleet of these new boats is capa
ble of flying non-stop 1,600 miles
from the point of departure. Besides
one ton of torpedoes and bombs, the
armament aboard includes four se
parate batteries of two machine
guns each. Engineers are aiming to
develop for the machine a speed of
two hundred miles per hour even
when fully loaded.

AN OPEN LETTER
NOVEMBER 7th, 1934.
TO THE PEOPLE OF NOME :
Believing It is pardonable, we take pride in bringing to your attention
the service we have given over a period of many years to Nome, and particularly
the service given you since the disastrous Are which destroyed practically all of
this city’s business section.
Within twenty four hours after the fire started our fast steel cargo
and passenger steamer the S. S. Dellwood, was on berth ready to receive cargo
for Nome. She was loaded with all dispatch and when ready was sailed from
Seattle to Nome. Immediately the S. S. Dellwood sailed, another of our steel car
go stemners, the S. S. Depere, was put on berth to take care of all the overflow „
cargo of the S. S. Dellwood’s and to accept any new cargo offered. We want to
particularly point out the speed with which these ships were loaded and sailed.
"Upon arrival here the two vessels discharged their cargoes with all dispatch and
have now returned to Seattle. v ’
The United States Government gave to Nome for emergency relief
purposes the sum of FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS. The ALASKA STEAMSHIP
COMPANY, in catting their freight rates in half, contributed practically the same
amount. With that, this company, if it could be possible, gave even more prompt
better service than ever before. This service was badly needed to help recon
struct Nome before winter weather set in. It was given gladly and whole heart -
edly and wo are proud that we did give it.
To give Nome people full opportunity to order needed goods, after
all other steamers had sailed for Nome, our S. S. VICTORIA sailed later than
she has for many years past. She has discharged her cargo for Nome and is now
nearing Seattle, the termination of her voyage.
^ Nome, rising Phoenix like from the ashes, is an exemplicatien of the
spirit of Hie far north showing the will to conquer under the hardest of con
ditions. We are proud to be associated with you and to have had a part in the re
tarding and reconstruction of a bigger and better Nome. We are proud to have had
sash an extensive part in this work and we would like to compliment you upon
your integrity, year spirit, your strong heartedness, and place with it the sincere
hope that yon will never again he stricken as of this recent fire.
Most sincerely,
ALASKA STEAMSHIP COMPANY
Jas. P. Daly, Agent.
