Cook Inlet Skipper
Returns from South
I Capt. Nick Gakima and lamily re
! turned on the steamship Yukon and
1 left yesterday lor Anchorage. Mr.
Gakima has large holdings in the
Willow Creek mining district and op
erates the gasboat Sea Lion, on Cook
Inlet. Last year he made two trips
to the Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes with the Norman Dawn
party. Mr. Gakima while in San
Francisco looked into the matter of
purchasing a boat to use on the
run to Mt. Katmai, but after a week’s
time found that the lowest pi ice he
could secure the kind ot boat he
was $20,000, so he has abandoned
the tourist proposition for this year
at least.
Mr. Gakima said that rum run-]
ners were paying from $80,000 to
$100,000 for boats in ’Frisco and Se
attle, and the cost which included
diesel engines wal prohibitive. He
found time, however, to go to sev
eral tourist booking agencies in
Southern California and Seattle, and
talk up tourist trade to Katmai
and the Valley of Ten Thousand
Smokes, and was informed that a
majority of tourists were inclined to
want all the luxuries of a palatial
hotel with none of the hardships ol
travel, wanting golf links, etc., at the
various resorts.
Alaska cannot offer these at pres
j ent, but Mr. Gakima said one beheld
I one of the wonders of the world in
seeing the Valley ot Ten I housand
Smokes.
Mr. Gakima deplored the laxity of
the government in not having a live
publicity department, and offered
proof that Uncle Sam is urging the
tourist to visit al! parts of the world
on Shipping Board vessels, bu^ neg
lected Alaska. He looks for an un
usually large number of tourists to
come north, however, this summer

NAVAL AIRCRAFT
TO AID EXPLORER
WASHINGTON, D. C., April 6 —
Navral aircrift will aid the unofficial
expedition led by Donald B. McMillan
this summer, which after exploring
for Norse ruins in Labrador and
Greenland, and establish a base at
Axelheiburg Land, whence it is hoped
the planes will be able to determine
whether or not there is a continent
between Alaska and the northern
land.
The polar ship will leave Wicasset,
Maine, June 15. President Coolidge
and Secretary Wilbur have indorsed
Commander R. E. Byrd to be in charge
of the flying expedition. Two planes
will be carried of the Loening amphi
bian type.
The reason some rich people are
stingy is also the reason they are
rich.
Fearing to undergo an operation,
a Chicago man got out of it nicely
by hanging himself.
It takes a really intellectual lady
[ to get into the news pictures with
1 a high-necked dress on.

Beautiful illustrations copied from
oil paintings by Rev. E. P. Ziegler, of

paintings in color and the sketches in
black and white are familiar to resi
dents of Alaska for they depict Indian
mothers, moose hunters, prospectors,
pack trains, fish boats, etc.
A splendid picture of Mt. McKinley,
Seward, Anchorage and other cities
of the Territory are to be found, as
well as a large map of Alaska.
Several pages are devoted to the
trip up the inside passage and the
Golden Belt tour.
