Little hits been said about the High School Vod-Vil
which is being presented this evening at the Liberty
Theater but as long as the boys and girls are staging it,
why it’s bound to be good. So lets all go and give them j,
:t little hand. !;
ASK FOR ALASKA PRODUCTS FIRST
Down in Juneau, we note with a great deal of inter
est and also considerable pride even though they are far |
away from us, that the Juneau Lumber Mill is ‘‘knock- j
mg 'em dead.” We are especially glad they are enjoying
a splendid business because they are giving a practical
demonstration of what we have preached for years;
that if Alaska is to develope it must grow from within
and not from without. Buy everything in Alaska and
doubly so if it is made in Alaska.
What Juneau can do all other towns in Alaska can
also do, even if on a smaller scale.
The Juneau mill, we understand, has about 100 men
on the payroll and just recently, owing to the large num
ber on hand and ever increasing orders, the former 8
hour shifts have been extended to 10, with a correspond
ing increase in pay.
Thirty years and more living off the products of the
suites is abo long enough in any man’s land. Alaska
has poured millions into the coffers of Outside firms
whose products could just as well be raised or manufact
ured in the Territory.
Slimmer is here so from now on, get this habit; when
you ask for vegetables, berries, potatoes, soda pop, can
dy. lumber, coal, etc., get Alaskan. And for good
ness sake, fellow Alaskans, lay off this mail-order stuff.
No need then to ask “What’s the matter with
Alaska?” The answer is in the paragraph above.
And hurrah for that Juneau mill.
Imagine an entire carload of Outside potatoes com-j
ing into Alaska! That’s what happened recently. It is r
enough to make one howl like a malamute or bark like a
fox. No better “spuds” are raised anywhere in the world y
than in Alaska.
GOING THROUGH
A big man does things in a big way; or, as a famous j
business psychologist puts it: “The successful executive
does not go around his abstaeles—he goes thru them.”
Colonel Otto F. Ohlson, general manager of the i
Alaska Railroad,—without trying to blow smoke up his
ears—demonstrated his calibre when, after observing
the futile results gained by the railroad snow crews in
attempting to get thru the high drifts on the north end
of the line with mediocre equipment, ordered the biggest
snow ploy manufactured. So when the tough places are
encountered again something is going thru!
Up to the time of going to press no killings had
been reported from any of the voting precincts and all
voters are “doing their stuff” in a quiet and orderly man
ner. It’s a privilege to vote so do your duty, friend. The I
polls close at 7 o'clock tonight.
Many people scoff at organizations and fraternal1
orders yet if these same scoffers really knew how much ;
good is accomplished, in a quiet way without any blare
of trumpets, they would be surprised. For instance, how j
many know of a couple of local destitute cases which are
being cared for- coal and food? Less than a half dozen,
we venture to say.
lake a last look at the political advertisements in
this paper for it will some months before? you see another
lineup like 'em. Next Fall, mebbe!

spite the comparatively low con
sumption of copper during the
first quarter of the year. F. H.
Brownell, chairman of the finance
committee of American Smelting
& Refining Company, indicated at
the annual meeting of stockhold- 1
crs that the outlook for the re
mainder of the year is favorable. !
Brownell expressed the belief that j
1930 foreign consumption of cop
per will be as good as it was for
1929, in view of plans for rapid
expansion of electric power facili
ties in Europe.
