Those Alaskans who are disposed
to criticise President Harding be
cause of the abandonment of his
proposed visit to the Territory this
summer must admit that his pres
ence at Washington is very much
in demand just now. with two big
strikes and a lot of delayed tariff
legislation taking up a large part
of his time.
What is Xenana going to do about
Those turnips requested by the
Seattle Chamber of Commerce for
the annual banquet of the Wash
ington State Press association? The
News would like to hear from the
turnip growers of the district, for
surely it is not their intention to
let pass this opportunity to adver
tise the fact that this is one of the
garden spots of the Interior. The
time is growing short, and the
committee in charge of the ban
quet is waiting for a reply.
If advertising is worth anything
at all—and successful men every
where say that it is worth a great
deal—Nenana invested wisely in the
promotion of the Cordova-N'enana
baseball series. It was the biggest
and most enjoyable sporting event
ever staged in the town and resulted
in giving Nenana much desirable
publicity, not to mention immediate
substantia! returns. It is to be hoped
that the good work can be kept up
during the remainder of the season
—a series with Anchora.ge, for in
stance. a game or two with the
ball team that will accompany the
Shriners on their Interior pilgrim
age and a revival of the meetings
between the Fairbanks and Nenana
teams. The Nenana boys are deserv
ing of the fullest measure of sup
port for the splendid showing they
have made.
