SEWARD HEAR
(Continued from Pane Four)
ing in Seward.
Mayor P. C. McMullen ad
dressed the Committee relative
to proposed breakwater or shel
ter harbor for small craft, ex
plaining that one of the fisher
ies company would have located
here with quite a large number
of families to reside in Seward
had there been shelter for the
s fishing fleet, and suggested an!
available site near the present |
plant of the San Juan Fishing i
&■ Packing Company, just north!
of there, so that boats could !
come in any kind of weather
and unload their catch.
The Mayor further said he be
lieved a further reduction in
cost of operation could be ef- ;
fected on the railroad by hav- '
I ing headquarters at the ter- j
minus of the road rather than
a Anchorage. This remark led
to some good naturcd comments |
upon the part of the Committee j
during which Mayor McMullen
paid a high compliment to Col
onel Ohlson. upon Senator Ken
’ drick jocularly remarking; “Mr. j
Mayor, do you think that boost '
of your’s yvill cause Colonel Ohl
son to move to Seward?" Me :
Mullen replied: “If Washington !
would authorize it I am sure j
Colonel Ohlson would prefer i
living in Seward.” Colonel Ohl
son listened with considerable
amusement to the discussion
but stood “pat.”
Upon inquiry of Senator How
ell, McMullen stated one train
a week, accommodation, would
take care of the present season
able traffic.
Senator Howell stated the
work of the Committee had
been very thorough, that they
had at their command facts
and figures, that further testi
mony would be simply piling up
on the same facts they had
with accuracy; that the Com
mute was tired; that they had
accomplished in Alaska the mis
sion delegated to them, and that
while he personally would de
sire to delay and visit with the
people of Seward, the time of
the Committee was limited; that
they were not on a pleasure trip;
their work in Alaska was com
pleted and that they were ready
to go. Whereupon in formal
words the hearings of the Com
mittee in Alaska were declared
closed.

FRISCO GIVES
SAN FRANCISCO GAVE FITTING
TRIBUTE TO MEN WHO BAT
TLED SEA AND WON
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 3. t/P)—
The traditional “happy ending ' la
as thrilling an epic of the sea as
was ever told of the broad Pacific
was written in San Francisco Bay
when the Matson liner Ventura
steamed through the Golden Gate
bearing 91 of the 317 men, women
and children which she rescued
I from the foundering steamer Ta
hiti two weeks ago in the South
Seas.
And such a welcome as San
Francisco gave Capain William R.
Meyer of the Ventura, the men of
his crew, the refugees and the
; stately liner herself. It was a tri
umphal marine procession from
the time the Ventura entered the
Golden Gate and dropped anchor
for quarantine off the Marina at
12:45 o’clock with shreiking sirens,
shrilling whistles and the drone of
(airplanes overhead and yachts
'dancing alongside. The ovation to
! heroism and seamanship of the
Ventura and its crew continued
.until the liner had finally mooted
at pier 32.
San Francisco vented to the ful
lest extent its love of the sea and
the heroes who man the ships that
go down to the sea. It was such a
welcome and such a celebra
tion as San Francisco never tires
of giving in tribute to men of cour
age who battle the sea and win.

“They said I was an enemy

“The officials were very polite

GUESTS are hard to entertain . . . sometimes! And I
" nothing ever takes the place of a VICTOR when ;
’'occasions’* arise.
That’s why everyone is talking about VICTOR-RADIO
and VICTOR VALUE . . . not only because it gives the *
utmost in entertainment... but because it gives far greater
’’real radio value” in construction and performance. That’s
why we say VICTOR VALUE has passed our test. . . and '
it will surely pass your -test, too. Only VICTOR . . . and >
VICTOR Tone Supremacy will ever satisfy you after you ‘
have compared it with any other instrument at any price.
