ALASKA NOTES.
Culled From the Newspapers
Of the Territory.
The growth of the Pribloff
Islands seal herds has been
very rapid since the North Pa
cific sealing convention be
came effective in 1911. In the
ninteen-year interval the herds
have increased from an esti
mated 123,000 to 971,527 in
1929.
Furs and fur skins exported
from Alaska last year were
valued at $4,477,441.82, of
which fox skins of all varieties
contributed $3,034,480.21.
Red fox exports amounted to
$1,042,740.80 and white and
blue fox ,skins were worth re
spectively $808,208.08 and
$733,784.75. Mink was the
fourth largest contributor with
exports totaling $552,586.54.
Arthur McKenna, alias Bob
McCoy, who murdered A1
Mattson in cold blood at. the
Jumbo mine, Kennicott, on
May 3, 1928, has been returned
from the states to face trial for
murder, after being discharged
from the Oregon States Asyl
1 um for the Insane, after being j
adjudged recovered from the
insane state for which he was
committed to Morningside Hos
pital, to which he was ordered
committed by Judge Cecil M.
Clegg until his sanity was re
stored. McKenna was violently
insane at the time of his com
mitment a few months after
the murder of McCoy. He will
be tided at the fall term of the
district court at Valdez.
Establishment of an all
American newsprint paper in
dustry in Alaska to complete
with the virtual monopoly en
joyed by Canada, is now at a
standstill because of the uncer
tain status of the Federal Pow
er Commission, according to
Washington D. C. reports. Two
groups have asked for licenses
to build power systems to sup
ply power for paper mills, but
the power commission is reluc
tant to act until it learns how
soon the new 5-man commiss
ion authorized by the last cong
ress will become effective. The
senate adjourned this summer
without acting on the three
nominations made by the pres
ident to become members of
the commission.
Both Cameron and Zeller
bach interests contemplate pro
duction of 365,000 tons of news
print annually in Southeastern
Alaska. The Federal Trade
Commission found recntly that
Canadian news print cost in the
United Sates from $61.50 to
$67.00. It is estimated that
news print from Alaska can be
delivered at New Orleans for
$58.00 a ton and slightly more
in the eastern and central
states.
