Now that the special session of Congress has ad
journed it will no doubt be easier to make Washington
a “model dry city.”
Sourdough Bill describes a model man as one who
has so lived that when his name goes before the Senate
even Senator Norris won’t feel the impulse to take his
feet off his desk.
An apple a day will keep the doctor away^so the
story goes, but over at Akutan a w-hale a day will keep
everyone away. Whew7!
With the general election coming soon in Alaska
it is about time to pull that old gag about office aspir
ants passing around the cigars.
Given half a chance the mining industry always
makes good. What were once prospects are now the
world's greatest producers. The prosperity of our coun
try rests on mining. When you see a miner, doff your
“kelly” to him.
We are wondering what has become of our coal
bunkers, the reindeer coal storage plant and the exten
sion to the Seward dock.
SHIPPING ACT
IS BAR. SAYS
C, H. PRESIDENT
KEEPS CANADIAN LINES OUT
OF ALASKA FIELD EXCEPT
TOURIST TRADE
_
The British Columbia-Southeast
Alaska tour is pre-eminent among
scenic routes of the world, in the
opinion of Sir Henry Thornton,
president : f the Canadian Nation
al Railways and Steamships, who :
last week was a visitor at Juneau j
and accorded the Empire the fol- |
lowing interview:
DEVELOPING PROGRAM
Pointing out that under existing
American coastwise marine laws,
the Canadian National Lines can
play little part in Alaska trans
port ion, Sir Henrv said that
company was carrying on a pro
gram of developing a tourist tra- !
vel to the north which would keep
all of its facilities busy. The op
eration of the American Merchant
Marine Act of 1920, the so-called
Jones Shipping Law prevents the
(water shipment of freight from
American points to Alaska over
Canadian water lines. As long as
this Act remains in effect, Alaska’s
most natural outlet to the East—
Prince Rupert and the Canadian
National Railways—cannot be
used by Alaska shippers, said Sir
| Henry.
