STATUS OF THE FINNS
| Steve Regan. assistant United
! States attorney of the First division,
! recently took accasion to set the
^Wrangell Sentinel straight on the
| question of unnaturalized Finnish
j residents of Alaska, about which
1 there has been some misunderstand
ing:
Any property in this country be
longing to Finns who reside in Fin
land is subject to confiscation by
the United States government the
same as that of Germans,” said Mr.
Regan. “In regard to the fishing
the Finns still have the same privi
leges as persons from other coun
tries not at war with the United
States.”

CITIZENS PROTEST
against REMOVAL
OF POSTOFFICE
Nenanaitei Not In Favor of Building
Postoffice on the Commission
Grounds.
A petition signed by over 200
property owners and others inter
ested in the development of the town,
of Nenana, protesting against the
proposed erection of a building to
serve- as a postoffice, on the Com
mission grounds, will short’y be sent
to the postmastter geenral.
The citizens urge that if it should
be absolutely necessary to have such
a building, that it be erected on the
federal reserve, which is in the heart
of the town, and not on the Commis
sion reserve, which is not centrally
located to serve the needs of Ne
nanaites.
The petition is as follows:
To Honorable Postmaster General
Burleson; Honorable Edgar C.
Bradley, Ass’t. to Secretary Frank
lin K. Lane; Honorable William
C. Edes, Chairman, Alaskan En
gineering Commission, Washing
ton, D. C.
“Your petitioners hereto, would
respectfully but earnestly represent:
“That we are residents and citi
zens of Nenana, Alaska, and patrons
of the Nenana postoffice.
“That when the Nenana townsite
was established, and its town lots
offered for sale, a look upon the
plat thereof showed specifcally a
municipal and federal reserve and the
site for a future postoffice build
ing.
“That scores of us purchased our
lots, built substantial business build
ings, in a large measure, upon the
assurance of the above reserve, and
the postoffice site.
“That the postoffice is now housed
in a substantial building, lying di
rectily across the street from said
postoffice site, and approximately
within one hundred feet of the
United States Commissioner’s office,
Marshal’s office and Telegraph build
I ings. The present location is as
' nearly in the center of Nenana, all
things considered, as it would be
possible to place it, for the con
venience and satisfaction of all the
; patrons and citizens.
| “That we earnestly protest against
the Alaskan Engineering commission
; erecting a building to be used as a
j postoffice on any other site than
| the one designated on the Nenana
Towsite plat. And your petitioners
will ever pray:—
Volney Richmond, superintendent
of the Northern Commercial com
pany, arrived in Nenana on Satur
day evening on his regular inspec
tion tour. He will probably leave
for Fairbanks tomorrow.

FIRST SALMON SHIPPED
BY NEW DOUGLAS PLANT
The first cases of canned salmon
from the Keegan cannery in Douglas
were taken to the Douglas dock for j
shipment to the States on July 24.
the
Those fifty cases represent _
first or experimental stage of the i
Douglas cannery and were all packed |
by Douglas people, who mostly thru j
patriotic motives are working in the
plant.
The cannery is working quite
steadily and getting down to seri
ous business, the green hands are1
getting on to their work and hence
forth the production will be quite
steady.
Mr. Keegan is very optimistic in
regards to the cannery situation in
Douglas and hopes to put up a pack
of at least 5,000 cases for the season.
Mel R. Boyd, well known oldtimer
of the Fairbanks district, is a recent
arrival in Nenana, having made the
trip down river on a several-day
visit.
The newest fighting corps—The
Potatriot. Join the ranks and spud
