The Ketchikan Alaska Chronicle is to be congratulated on the splendid special 40-page paper it has recently published as a protest edition against the move at Washington to recognize the claims of the Indians to territorial, rights, which recognition might Jiave serious and 'widespread effects on every phase f)f commercial, industrial and civil interest in the territory. . The special edition, while primarily designed in the nature of an ambitious protest issue, is in fact a compendium of latest information about Alaska and, as such, should prove of muh value as a promotion scheme and a reference document. The industries and resources of the territory are comprehensively described and illustrated. t Fine advertising support, of course, has nlayed an important part in making the effort possible. 8S BRITISH COLUMBIA PACKERS LTD., Vancouver, Canada IS BACK FROM NANAIMO MEET Local Y.M.C.A.
