The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, farming, and
trapping that are unequaled in any
other section of Alaska.
Gold placers of known value, close
to Nenana, are producing annually sub
stantial amounts, and there are scores
of streams within the district on which
little or no prospecting has been done.
These streams, until a short time ago
almost inaccessible, are now easily
reached by means erf the new Govern
ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon
will be the scene of much mining ac
tivity.
Farming in the Nenana district has
the advantage of a growing season fully
ten days longer than that of any other
section of Interior Alaska. There is
much desirable land in the district open
to homesteaders, and marketing possi
bilities are being expanded steadily.
Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana
and adjacent districts are noted for the
fine quality of their fur. and trappers
annually bring large numbers of pelts
to Nenana and receive for them higher
prices than are obtained for the average
furs of other districts.
Game of all kinds abounds in the
Nenana district, there are scores of
trout streams easy of access, and the
scenic wonders of the district are un
surpassed. The district is the natural
gateway to Mt. McKinley National
Park, and close to Nenana may be
viewed the largest coal ledges in the
world.

resources and possibilities of the Ne
nana'district may be obtained from the

JAPANESE HOPE
FOR SUCCESS OF
PEACE LEAGUE
LONDON. — Vice-Admiral Kato,
Japanese minister of navy, has ar
rived here at the head of an offi
cial mission which is to visit all of
the principal Allied countries, to
■ convey the friendly greetings of
Japan and congratulations on the
winning of the war. The Japanese
admiral has been received by the
first lord of the admiralty, to whom
he delivered the message from his
country.
The mission will go to the Con
tinent to visit France, Belgium, and
Italy. It will return home by way
:
! of America. In a
* lished under
! Kato says:
his
statement pub- j '•
name. Admiral i j
‘My mission is to give to all of j
the Allies the friendly greetings of j
Japan and congratulations on the j
«
winning of the war. But we are .
hoping to see something of what is
being done by each country in the
!way of reconstruction after the war.
I “The great problem for all of,
j the nations now is to economize,
iand in Japan we would like to see a
'general agreement for disarmament.
‘In my country there are no
; plans yet for a reduction of the
navy or army.. We are waiting to
1 see what is done in that wav by
ithe other great powers. That seems
j to me to be the position of all the
j nations. They are willing to dis
iarm, but are waiting for a general
i
! agreement for that purpose.
“The Japanese people are fer- ;
jVently hoping for the success of the
League of Nations, in which they j
, see the prospect of the establish- 1
ment of a permanent peace. All the i
nations have had enough of war. !
and the world must now give all its
energies to securing lasting peace.
"This being so, I rather regret
' that the Allies are retiring from
Russia before the complete pacifica
tion of that country has been ob- j
tained. While Russia is in such :t ,
disturbed state there is always the j
probability of another great war ,
