If there existed any doubt in tb
minds of N'enana voters regardini
the sincerity of Delegate Dan Suth
erland, and his ability properly t<
represent Alaska at the nationa
capitol. that doubt disappeared loni
before the close of the address o
the delegate at Union Hall on Sun
day evening. The straight-forwar<
account of his stewardship was botl
enlightening and convincing. an<
address, on the whole, was genuinei
pleasing to the large audience whi
heard it. There was nothing of th<
bombastic order, no abusive attack
on opposing candidates, no threat
and no boasts. In fact, scarcely i
reference was made to primary
campaign beyond setting the voter
right on opposition propaganda.
If Dan Sutherland fails of nomin
ation today it will be because hii
friends and admirers in Nenana ant
elsewhere in Interior Alaska failet
to go to the polls.
Trying to reduce the army ant
r.avy to peace-time requirements i:
a good deal like trying to rid Alask;
of some of the red tape rule. Then
is always opposition from those wht
are most benefitted by the burden
some and costly establishments ant
their influence is such that the tax
pavers are seldom considered. Wit
ness, for example, the appearanct
this week of Genera! Pershing anc
Secretary Weeks before the nation
al lawmakers in an effort to keej
the public staggering under the
burden of an army of huge peace
tree proportions, notwithstanding
the fact that it is already apparent
that it will be necessary next yeai
to levy additional taxes to keep the
Government going.

ABBEY RETURNING NORTH
TO FINISH PARK SURVEY
Woodbury Abbey, cadastral en
gineer of the general land office, and
a crew of men will resume the sur
vey of the boundaries of Mount Mc
Kinley National Park this summer.
The exact date of the commence
ment of the work is still shrouded
in uncertainty, but it is expected
that the party will take the field
early in June.
The work will probably be com
menced at a point on the 149th
Meridian, near Riley Creek, where
the work for the season was halted
last fall, and continued s lut’nward
to Corner No. 5, near Windy Creek.
From this point the line will be run
in a southwesterly "direction for a
distance of approximately 36 miles
to the west fork of the Chulitna
river. The party will then probably
proceed up the west f >rk of the
Chulitna and across West Fork and
Muldrow Glacier, through the can
yon of the McKinley river, to the
old camping ground of the party
near the camp of the Ml McKinley
Gold Placers, and on to the point,
on the *-est bank of the McKinley,
where the northwest boundary line
aas halted last fail. Crossing the Mc
Kinley river at that point, the line
will be continued until completed.
The department also has authoriz
ed the survey of the Chulitna coai
fields, and a survey party to do this
work, will take the field during the
early summer.
