JOSLIN GIVES
INTERVIEW ON
BERING COAL
Falcon Joslin, pioneer Alaskan
builder and for many years president
of the Tanana Valley railroad, now
engaged in developing oil properties in
the Katalla oil field and coal mines in
the Bering river field, who is a
Juneau visitor, will leave on the first
boat for the westward to take per
sonal charge of the work there. He
is very hopeful of the outlook for both
of his enterprises.
Mr. Joslin says he has a crew of
men working in the old fields and
about 25 men working on the coal
properties, and he expects within
three months to be able to demon
- strate that the properties are such
that they will warrant the building of
a railroad to them to connect with Cor
dova. It will require about 50 miles
of railroad, and he estimates the con
struction cost at $2,500,000.
lvir. jusun nas Deen woraing tor two
or three years on the oil development
In his field, and he took a lease on
the coal lands last year.
By invitation of the joint committee
of the senate and house which is con
sidering the bill providing for the or
ganization of a shipping board and
authorizing the territory to enter the
transportation business, Mr. Joslin
made a statement to it Tuesday after
noon. He is opposed to government
ownership where private ownership
can serve the people. He thought
Alaska should encouarge capi
tal to come to Alaska rather than dis
couraging it by entering into compe
tition with it. He suggested that the
territory contest the tariffs of the
transportation companies before the
Federal Shipping Board if it regarded
them too high. He believed that if
the rates are too high, private compe
tition will soon bring about an ad
justment.
Mr. Joslin’s enterprises are now the
principle pieces of development work,
looking toward the investment of
more capital, now under way in the
territory.
He said if his development work
should disclose, as he believes it will,
that he has sufficient coal and oil in
sight to warrant the construction of a
railroad to haul it to tidewater and
harbor facilites, it would be difficult
for him to get money to build the
railroad if the territory should enter
the transportation business. He said
private capital will not compete with
government-owned lines, and where
the people go into private business
no one knows where it will stop.—

SOLDIER SHOW
DELIGHTS ALL
WHO WITNESS IT
PARIS, March 26 (Correspondence
of the Associated Press).—"Go to
Paris. Why these American officers
won't let a fellow go to Paris unless
he’s got leave signed by Pershing
himself with gold ink!”
This is one of the most popular
lines in “Let’s Go,” the soldier show
which recently delighted thousands of
American soldiers in Paris and has
moved off to ports of embarkation to
give the homegoing troops farewell
performances.
“Let’s Go” is described as a “mar
tial, mirthful, musical barrage in six
volleys.” The fun starts on a cam
ouflaged ship which arrives at a port
in France with American soldiers,
takes them to the western front and
finally lands them in a cafe in Paris.
The trails and tribulations of pri
vates, Red Cross nurses, Young Men’s
Christian Association girls, Salvation
Army lasse and other war workers
are followed through the trenches and
hospitals. Miss Eiffel Tower chats
with Miss Liberty. Finally male rep
resentatives of each branch of the
military service lay their claim to
having won the war, but are over
shadowed by the women war workers
who declare victory was due to their
efforts.
Paris’ most famous modistes and
milliners contributed the hats and
gowns which converted youthful pri
vates and sergeants into fascinating
nurses and cafe favorites who rival
the beauty choruses in the regular
Paris revues.
Such songs as “Bring Me a Blonde
For Breakfast” and "I Never Travel
’Round Without a Jazz” delighted
General Pershing no less than hun
dreds of other American officers who
crowded the Theatre Champs Elysees
and joined with the enlisted men in
their funmaking, largely directed at
the officers.
