AIR FIELD PROGRESSES
Cal M. Brosius, speaking for
the aviation committee of the
Chamber of Commerce called
attention yesterday to the fact
that the north and south run
ways at the new aviation field
are completed and that they
are well along with the east
and west ends of the field. He
expressed the conviction that
when the field is finally com
pleted it will stack up with the

Republican Candidate for Delegate to
Congress, Election Nov. 4, 1930.
I have always stood, and now stand, for Home Rule
for Alaska, and secured the passage of the Act of Con
gress of August 24, 1912, creating the Alaska Legislature.
I will support Self-Government in Alaska game, fur
and fisheries, and full Territorial Government by the
people of Alaska. I will support To the Last Ditch the
continued economical operation of the Alaska Railroad,
and oppose “tearing up the rails.”

DIM CLEVER
CRIME TECHNIQUE
The “gangsters” are trying to
make a new Chicago out of
Scldovia but their technique is
not so good, according to Rev.
Earl Riesner who gave the fol
lowing amusing account of a
recent robbery at the Cook In
let port to the chamber of com
merce members at the luncheon
Tuesday.
It seems that two men in the j
dark hours of the night entered i
a store in Seldovia and packed j
away the cash register. They j
only carried it across the street i
and attacked it with an ax and |
with an accompanying merry |
ring of blows. They then broke j
into a warehouse and abstracted I
some fresh meats therefrom'
which they immediately put on
the stove in their cabin for a j
mulligan.
Thinking to establish a com- j
plete alibi they went to the ho- |
tel and registered altho it was!
only 5 o'clock in the morning;
and the proprietor not up. They
had overloked the fact that
while in the warehouse they
had tipped over a can of red
paint in which they had thor
oughly smeared their shoes,
making it difficult indeed for the
officers of the law to track
them. They were soon caught
“red-footed.”
S. A. C. MEET
It was called to the attention
of the Seward Chamber of Com
merce yesterday by President
Leon Urbach that an important
meeting has been called for the
Seward Athletic Club at the
school house Thurday night at
7:30 o'clock. He urged Chamber
members to attend because the
vital question of providing the
club with a gymnasium for the
winter is coming up and must
be solved in some way. The an
nouncement immediately brot
about a discussion of what Sew
ard has available for a gymna
sium besides the Dreamland
hall, since it was feared the ren
tal asked would make it impos
sible for the club. Some satis
factory solution of the problem
is hoped for.
GOING TO VALDEZ

the Standard Oil Company with
jurisdiction over the concerns
