While The News <_s not prepared
to say that all of the bills intro
duced in Congress laii»ely, prodding
for a change in the manner of ad
ministering federal affairs in the
Territory, are without merit, it is
quite certain that Alaskans will
feel the easier in consequence of
the postponement of action on the
bills until after the President and
•he Secretary of the Interior have
had a chance to make a personal
investigation of conditions in the
Northland. Alaskans krvow that
something must !>e done by Con
gress to expedite development but
they can see little hope of agree
ment on helpful legislation so long
as reform measures oontinu* to be
framed and advocated by men who
have no persona! knowledge of c n
ditions which they seek t<> correct.
The hearings that are he’.d at Wash
ington for tiie purpose of gaining in
formation on pending Alaska legis
lation do not insure the desired re
sults for the reason that tne voice
of real Alaska is seldom heard.
The President and the Secretary
of the Interior have rightly arrived
at the conclusion that tile only solu
tion of the Alaska problem is for
them to visit the Territory, to see
for themselves what is really need
ed. There is the hope that such a
visit will enable them to forulate
a policy that will give genuine re
lief There is no policy of any kind
at present, and the past has been
marked by neglect and hap-hazzard
We thank our many friends for
their generous patronage of the
past year, and wish them and all
the people of Nenana

Happy New Year

legislation of little benefit to Alaska
or to the nation.
Let us hope that the New Year
will bring us that visit and with it,
a better understanding between real
Alaska and Washington. Alaskans
do not ask more than is their just
due. They want only the opportuni
ty to build and develop along
permanent lines, with the assurance
j that there is a friendly administra
i non and a fixed Alaska policy be
\ hind them.

ALL READY FOR MASK BALL
Everything’ is in readiness for the
fourth annual masquerade of the
Loyal Order of Moose, to be given
j at Union hall tonight, and the in
dications point to an unusually big
: attendance and spirited rivalry for
| the many beautiful prizes which
: are to be awarded during the even
ing. Practically all the dancers of
! the town have signified their inten
i tion of going and most of them
! have been busy during the last sever
al days j- reparing costumes for the
I dance.
The dance will start early and
continue until the crowd has had
its fill of dancing. The unmasking
will take plate as usual, at the hour
of midnight, and up to that time no
one will be allowed on the floor un
less properly disguised by mask or
otherwise.

Announcement
We beg: to announce that we have disposed of our business in
Alaska to the Northern Commercial Company of Alaska, a corpora
tion recently formed, whose stockholders include a number of the
present agents and employes of the Old Company, and the owners
of the Dominion Commercial Company who, for many years, were
identified with commercial and transportation interests of Alaska.
The executice management of the successor corporation will be
in the hands of Mr. Volney Richmond, president of the new com
pany and Mr. J. D. Reag-h. its vice-president. The physical transfer
will be effected January 1, 1922.
Prom our long and intimate association with the personnel of
the new company, we can confidently predict a continuance of the
policy of fair dealing and helpfulness that we proudly claim as the
record of the old company for these many years, and we bespeak
for our successors, who are not strangers, the same loyal support
and consideration that we have enjoyed.
