those who seek to discredit all Aspirin
Tablets except those made by them.
The Facts Are
that we regularly handle large quantities of Aspirin U. C. Do. Tablets
that we know are Pure and Genuine. They are rigidly tested by first
class chemists and are put out by a firm of the very highest standing,
the United Drug Company of Boston. We, as Rexall Druggists, are
their exclusive agents in Cordova.
The Aspirin patent expired in 1917 and anyone can now make
Aspirin and sell it under that name.
Aspirin U. C. Co. Tablets are put up in packages of 12’s; 24’s; 100’s.
The price is modertae, for there is no profiteering in United Drug Co.

[HIGHWAYS BEING ADVOCATED
I BY OF COMMISSION AS
AILWAY FEEDERS
Colonel Gotwals, Head of the Commission, Says
Economic Life of a New Country Depends on
Its Transportation Facilities, and Advocates a
Road Building Program That Will Extend
Over a Period of Twenty Years
-. •
“As far as highway transportation
in Alaska is concerned, the automo
bile is the means, not the old way of
pack horses, as this latter now costs
too much for upkeep. With this in
view, I am advocating and will pre
pare plans and estimates for a na
tional highway system of roads in
Alaska. These roads, especially in the
region traversed by the government
railroad, will be feeders for the gov
ernment railroad and furnish tonnage.
In other sections this system of high
ways will open new districts and also
connect with roads already construct
| ed.”
This statement was made by Colonel
John C. Gotwals, head of the Alaska
road commission, who in enthusiastic
in discussing highways for the terri
tory. Colonel Gotwals said that he
learned, while in France, that for
small tonnage the auto truck was the
thing.
“One hundred miles can be made
by a truck train in a day,” Colonel
Gotwals said. “The trucks can handle
the small tonnage where railroad
transportation would be at a loss.
Take for instance the proposed sys
tem of roads that will be feeders for
the government railroad. Trucks can
' haul the ore and produce to the rail
road in quick time and cheaper than
by the other way. The upkeep of
horses is now too much, as they are
idle in the winter months and they
eat their heads off. The small mining
operator, with a truck, can get his
ore to the railroad and thus furnish
tonnage. It would be imparcticable
for railroads to be built to all sec
tions, hut the auto truck, over a sys
tem of highways, will be the thing.
“I want to propose a system of
highways in Alaska on a program for
twenty years to come. In this matter
I want the assistance of the Alaskans.
The highway is what has built up all
countries in their pioneer stage.
Backed by Alaskans, the road commis
sion officials can go before the appro
priations committee and show them
. what amount is needed and be very
likely to secure the amounts needed
yearly. The economic life of a new
country lies in its transportation facil
ities and a highway system will, solve
the transportation issues in Alaska.”
Lieut. Col. John C. Gotwals, as a
civil engineer, entered the engineer
corps of the United States army
through competitive examination in
1913. He entered with the rank of
second lieutenant.
Previous to entering the army he
was a civil engineer at and near New
York City, where he nad been en
gaged since 1906 as an engineer on
the Pennsylvania tunnel and the
Catskill aqueduct. On the latter he
was resident engineer for three miles
of the work.
Colonel Gotwals was raised to the
rank of captain at the beginning of the
war. He went to France in 1917 and
saw very active service in the war
areas with the English and French
armies before the arrival of the Amer
ican army. He joined the American
army after its arrival over there. He
left France in November, 1919, with
the rank of lieutenant colonel and on
arriving in America was attached to
the staff of General Robert E. Bullard
at Governor’s island, New York, as de
partment engineer* He came directly
from that post to Alaska.
