WASHINGTON TIMES SAYS I
SECRETARY FALL COMING
The Washington Timas is authori
ty for the statement that Secretary
of the Interior Fall plans to come
to Alaska early »n the summer, and ’
will spend sufficient time in the Ter
ritory to fully gTaso every detail of
the needs of the railroad belt and
formulate a po’ioy for its develop
ment. The Times article .ays:
“Secretary of the Interior Fall,'
one-time railway builder of the We=t
is going back to his old job.
“He plans a trip to Alaska tc di
rect personally the work of putting
the finishing touches on th’ Gov
ernment’s railroad between Seward
and Fairbanks.
“ ‘It will take S4.000.00ij to finish ,
the railroad’, the secretary is ^uot- j
ed as saying. ‘A bill providing this
sum has been reported out of com
mittee for passage in th? senate,
and it seems certain the sum will
soon be available. When it is. I am
going to give explicit instructions ti;
the chief of operation and •„ .instruc
tion and hi3 engineers that this
money will have to cover all the ex
pense of finishing up the road, in
cluding rolling stock and other ne
cessary material. And I'm goin up
there to give some personal super
vision to the work. I used to help
build railroads in the West, and I
think I can help the Ala ita project
along in a rather praeii -a] way. I
had hoped the road, as * nainally
authorized by Congress, would be
completed next summer, but that
hardly seems likely now."
“A large poruon of the road :s
already in operation, principally in
carrying coal from the Alaska m.nes
but also doing a small freight and
passenger business. It is Secretary
Fall's intention to inaugurate freight
and passenger service over the en
tire line as soon as possible.
‘‘The opening of the Alaska rail
road is part of a new policy the
Harding administration has decided
upon in respect to Alaska. : nis th*
secretary desribes as the ‘open d^or'
policy by which the resources of the
rich territory will be developed to
the utmost and lands :nd their in
eral content placed in the hands of
j settlers. .
“As the first step in this direction
a bill is pending in Congress for
consolidating the thirty-eight com
missions and bureaus now dire, tug
Alaskan affairs into a central body,
to be made a part of v f the gov
ernmental departments, -to ~t likely
the department of the interior ”

for the Kar.tishna region, by way of
the shortcut trail. Mr. Burrows is
going on to Eureka and from that
point to his camp on the upper

NENANA STUDENTS PUBLISH
HIGH SCHOOL NEWSPAPER |
The Xenana School Star, a news- j
paper edited and printed in its en- |
tirety by students of the Franklin
K. Lane High School, made its
initial appearance yesterday, fresh
from the printing plant recently in
stalled at the school under the direc
tion of Superintendent A. D. Phil
lips. The paper is a six-page edition
and is remarkably neat in appear
ance considering the fact that the
work was new to the students and
the equipment more or less impro
vised. There are on The News’ ex
change table, real, honest-to-good
ness newspapers which do not look
or read as well.
Miss Jessie Motschman is editor in
chief of the new publication. Walter
Teeland is business manager, and
Superintendent Phillips occupies a
place on the staff as critic.
In bowing its way into the news
paper world, the Star says editor
ially :
“With this issue of the Star, we
start a new pa^e in the history of
the Xenana High Sschool. This is the
initial appearance of this paper and
with this edition we have several
things to bring to the attention of
the readers.
“In the first place, tho this is the
first issue, every bit of the paper
was edited, written, corrected, print
ed and distributed by the students
of the Xenana High School. The fol
lowing points are the things we wish
to emphasize:
“(1> Xenana High School is the
smallest High School in Alaska.
“(2) Xenana High School is the
only High School in Alaska that
publishes a paper monthly.
“(3) Xenana High School is the
only High School in Alaska that
teaches printing as a branch of In
dustrial Arts.
“(4) Xenana High School is the
only High School in Alaska that has
a regular printing equipment within
the High School building.
“(5) Xenana High School is the
only High School in Alaska that has
a monthly paper edited and man
aged by students of the High
School”
ORPHEUM THEATER OPENING
DELAYED BY LIGHT TROUBLE
Owing to the fact that the pro
jecting apparatus to be used in con
nection with the picture shows at
the new Orpheum theater. i« not
suitable for the sort of electric cur
rent supplied in Nenana. the open
ing of the theater, which was adver
tised for tomorrow night, will not
take place.
At a try-out last night, it was
found that the electrical current
could not be properly controlled with
the apparatus available, so the man
agement has decided to postpone
the opening until the arrival of a
specially designed lamp, which was
ordered some time ago, and which
should be here on an early train.
There is nothing wrong with the
picture machine, the trouble being
that special electrical equipment is
necessary to change from the direct
current, supplied in Fairbanks, to
the alternating current supplied by
the Nenana power plant. Pending
the arrival of the special lamp, it
was hoped that a temporary adjust
ment might be made, but the result
of the experiment was not as satis
