glare ice and walking is dan
gerous. He says he will give

married man. And thereby

Alaska One Of 12 States
Not Seekng Federal Loan
Up to the present time only
12 of the states have failed to
seek aid from the Reconstruct-,
ion Finance corporation in
overcoming conditions result
ing from the depression and
Alaska is also one of the nat
ion’s political subdivisions in
this classification, according to
Washington reports.
Although possessing no ple
thora of wealth, the Territory
has so far managed to escape
the necessity of seeking a loan
from the government and pre
ent indications are that it will
continue to do so unless condit
ions become much worse than
they have been.
Alaska s ability to stand on
its own feet in spite of the de
pression has been the subject
of marked publicity in the Out
side press.
