It is indeed gratifying to The
News to learn from recent arrivals
from the Coast that business con
ditions in Anchorage have not been
impaired by the establishment of
through service on the Alaska Rail
road—to know that the judgment
of those responsible for the found
ing of Anchorage is being proven
sound.
It is the natural thing for towns
to spring up along the line of a new
railroad in a new country and, in
view of the fact that the Govern
ment reserved all of the land along
the railroad right of way in Alaska,
before commencing railroad con
struction, it was the natural and
proper thing for the Alaskan En
gineering Commission to designate
where town building should start.
It was not to be expected, and
it was not expected by investors in
townsite property that the Govern
ment would continue beyond the
period of construction, to contrib
ute directly to the support of the
towns created'by its road building
organization, but it was natural that
investors should place reliance in
the judgment of those entrusted
with the responsibility of founding
towns; and it is gratifying now to I
find that the oldest of the towns is1
able to stand on its own feet and i
is undisturbed by the withdrawal of
bolstering influences. Business is
good in Anchorage declare those
who know. The community is well
organized for the advancement of
the general welfare and as the Gov
ernment dollars dwindle in number
new sources of revenue are culti
vated to take their place. Anchor
age is learning to be self-reliant
and is making a good job of it.
Nenana. and the other towns es
tablished by the Alaskan Engineer
ing Commission, also must learn
to be self reliant and it is to be
hoped that time will prove the wis
dom of their creation. The News
believes sufficient business can be
created to insure prosperity for all
the towns along the Alaska Rail
road, and a large volume of ton
nage for the railroad; but each
community must work for its own
advancement, just as Anchorage is
doing, for no matter how advan
tageous may be the location of a
town, full benefit cannot be realized
without effort. There must be unity
of action, an alertness for oppor
tunities and a constant reaching
out for business.
C. A. Sheldon, of the T. & T.
department of the Alaska Railroad,
made a trip to Fairbanks this week.

BIGGEST THRILL EVER SEEN
ON THE SCREEN
Priscilla Dean the Star
A rushing, roaring sweep of re
sistless waters released from bond
age—a mighty torrent of timber
crushing, grinding all before it—
logs bumping, splintering in the
snarling waters—sweeping all before
its relentless path. Such is one of
the big thrills in “Conflict”.
The most gripping, soul-searing
moment ever filmed. Terrific in its
intensity, the mighty log jam. the
blowing up of the dam. and the
swashing torrent of felled forest is
the mightiest spectacle of the film
camera’s art.
In all its splendor, in all its ruth
less glory, “Conflict” to be shown
at the Coliseum tonight, vividly re
cords the actual dynamiting of a
huge dam. and .the breaking loose
of hundreds of thousands of the
prisoned logs.
“Conflict”, the sensational Red
Book serial by Clarence Budington
Kelland. is a mystery drama, the
rugged mountain country of the
Canadian North Woods as its locale.'
“Conflict" is the story of a fight—
the battle of two indomitable wills
—the struggle for the mastery of
the logging industry.
The beauty of the photography
and the magnificant scenery of the
Canadian North Woods country is
unsurpassed. Thousands upon thous
ands of huge logs whirling through
the dynamited dam were caught by
the six cameramen who risked their
lives to attain this remarkable film.
An entire logging camp, running
at full blast with all its men, was
requisitioned by Stuart Paton in the
direction of this marvelous picture.
“Conflict" surpasses even “Reputa
tion"—Priscilla Dean’s most recent
Universal-Jewel success—in its in
tensity and dramatic force.
The railroad power boat Mata
nuska is engaged in towing gravel
barges to the north shore of the
Tanana river from Nenar.a. for use
in constructing the big pier. An
apron has been built at the Nenana
dock for rapid transfer of \he grave!
from cars to barges.
