OF NATIONAL CONCERN
It is with deep appreciation that Alaskans note the
many evidence's of the interest and activity taken by
llIcUUN ivi. iv . o- -- . i j il I
folks in the States and abroad m regard to the search
for Pilot Eielson and Mechanic Borland, flyers lost fox*
nearly two months in the Siberian Arctic. One ox the la
test comments, printed in a newspaper which arrived m
tlie last mail, is as follows:
LOST HEiiOES IN ALASKA
“Pilot Carl Ben Eielsbn and Mechanic Earl Borland left Alaska in
an airplane on November 9th, seeking to rescue passengers of a
steamer, and have been missing ever since.
“Efforts of brother pilots to locate the men have so far proved
futile and it is feared that they were forced down in the Bering Sea
While acclaiming Commander Byrd for his South Pole flight, let s
not forget the brave men in Alaska. Waft a prayer for their deliver
anre" —Editor's Copy. (Orangeburg, S. C.)
Blue sky laws are holding back the free investment
of funds in the United States and should be wiped from
the statute books of every state and Alaska. I here
should be no restrictions on what use can be made on
the savings of the people deposited in the banks of tne
nation. The West should fight all laws or conditions that
interfere with the financing and development of its great
undeveloped resources.
DISCARD THE “SHIN-PLASTERS”
We are absolutely against the use of “shin-plasters”;
currency—scraps of paper. It costs the government mil
lions to print the stuff and more later to replace it. Not
so with silver and gold. And it is clean. Think of the ad
ditional mining activity which would follow.
Few Americans who drive up to any one of the
tens of thousands of filling stations that dot our high
ways and receive a high grade oil product at a low cost,
realize what has been accomplished by private initiative
and enterprise in the oii industry in 70 years. The story
of oil, like mining, is an integral part of our romantic
history.
Just to be nice and friendly, why doesn’t Mr. Stim
*on tell the Russians to go ahead and fight.
To visualize a world without oil is to visualize one
minus automobiles, airplanes tractors, gas-engines, mo
dern ships, great oil-burning factories, power plants and
a thousand and one luxuries and necessities. Oil did a
lion’s share in putting an end to the age of candles and
wagons.
The wife of George P. Hell of Des Moines was grant
ed a divorce with alimony, and now there’ll be Mrs. Hell
to pay.
The trouble with a lot of radio programs is that
they are mostly talkies.
“Aviation From the Ground Up” is the title of a
new book. It sounds reasonable.
Mining is so necessary to modern life that a world
without metals is unimaginable.

LOS ANGELES, Dec., 28, (/P)
Judge Fricke denied the motion j
of Alexander Pantages attorneys j
to release him because of the j
alleged danger to his health and j
the court ordered the prisoner !
i be returned to Jail.
Prison attendants should pro
cure the best of medical and
surgical advice possible.
Judge Friske said he believed ;
I Pantages condition is principally
the result of “prison psychossi,”
a mental depression.

TUNNKY WINS AGAIN
BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Dec., 28,
Judgement in favor of Tunney
was given by the superior court
| in the $500,000 breach of promise
suit filed against him by Mrs.
Fogarty. Counsel for both sides
agreed on the judgement stipu
lation signed yesterday.
For Sunday night’s program a I
j nine-reel special picture will be
| shown, “Mother Knows Best”. This j
fine play is from the pen of Edna ;
Berber, and is rated as one of the
fine pictures of the year.
The Liberty management said I
that both Anchorage and Fair
banks wrote that this feature was
A-l in every way and would stand
all the superlatives one could give
it and would more than full-fill
everyone’s expectations. No ad- j
vance Is made in admission because i
this big feature goes thru without !
an extra fee.

: THE “HAWK’S NEST” TONIGHT j
The showing of this feature last j
Wednesday proved it to be one of !
the best murder-mystery -under
world stories ever shewn here. Mil- j
ton Sills, the star, rivals Lon Chan- j
ey in his wonderful make-ups. The
story was so intensely interesting
and logical, as to keep your absorb
ed attention every minute. The
very fine settings in San Francisco
Chinatown, and the large number
|of real Chinese give the picture
added interest.
