A. E. LATHROP ON
WAY FROM EAST
Cape. A. E. Lathrop, president of
the Alaska Motion Pictures Corpora
tion. and interested in many enter
prises in Seward. Cordova and An
chorage, arrived on the steamship
Alaska from a trip lasting several
months to Portland, California, New
York and the East. Mr. Lathrop’s
trip East was in connection with the
motion picture, “The Cheechacos,”
filmed two years ago in Alaska. Mr.
Lathrop declared htat a statement
gratifying to the stockholders of the
corporation would be issued within
the next ten days, showing the com
mercial standing of the corporation,
and a schedule of the moneys receiv
ed for exhibiting, but that he had
nothing to say at the present time.
He stated, however, that the name of
the picture had been changed from
“The Cheechacos,” to “The Golden
Stampede,” the principal reason for
the change being that Eastern people
did not understand the former title
and its meaning. This was keeping
down returns from its sale, and since
the change better results were being
obtained.
Mr. Lathrop announced that Gunnar
Kasson, who passed through here a
few weeks ago on his way to Seattle,
had signed up with the Pantages Cir
cuit for S1000 per week for himself
and his famous leader, “Balto." lie

Mr. Lathrop announced that Healy
river coal has a brisk demand along

COOLIDGE’S CHOICE FOR
ATTY. GENERAL REFUSED
WASHINGTON, D. C., March 30
Like Charles B. Warren, Coolidge’s
second choice for Attorney General,
which was Woodlock, was twice sub
mitted by the President and the Sen
ate’s answer both times was that he
was not suitable to that body. The
attack likely to be made on Wood
lock’s nomination will include the
contention that the President cannot
make a temporary appointment dur
ing the recess, if the Senate was in
sessmn when the vacancy occurred as
in this stormy case. There is no
authority under which Woodlock can
be paid his salary.
Join the Chamber of Commerce.
