MAJ. WOODRUFF ON ALASKA.
MaJ. Charles E. Woodruff, of the
army medical corps, In a recent letter
to a friend In this couutry, while on
an army transport en route to the
Philippines, has this to say of Alaska:!
"By the way, Alaska is bound to be
the home of a mighty and numerous
people, brainy and perhaps blonde. Its
climate Is identical with that which
caused the evolution of the dominant
type of Europe, and experience shows
that It Is the healthiest climate in
America. Already its people are do
ing things. There is plenty of arable
land, which can raise everything they
do in Scandinavia or Scotland, and.
besides that, the mineral resources
will make the people rich. Then, and
this is the main point, they can raise
healthier and better children there
than In any other part of our country.
The tots now being born there are
destined to have a profound influence
upon our future. Who knows but that
these big. Northern, stolid, strong
men, raised under the cool shades
of Alaska's clouds and rain, will sure
ly repeat the history of Scotland,
which has been and is the breeding
ground for the rulers of the British
Empire? It is said that when certain
Scotchmen saw the inevitable union,
should Queen Elizabeth not leave off
spring. there was apprehension that
Scotland would be dissolved in Eng
land. but It was even then known
that Scotchmen would dominate.
Scandinavia has always been the
breeding ground for the creators and
ruk?rs of Aryan civilization, and Al
