Having an axe to grind at least shows the fellow or
town with ambition has enough ambition to have an axe.
Naturally, some think the axe is a hammer.
SENATOR WILLIS ALASKA BOOSTER
In all of his statements given out to the Associated
Press and in interviews with newspapers after his return
to the States from Alaska, Senator Willis of Ohio, reflects
the information he gathered principally during his stay
in Seward.
He tells of the great valleys of rich and productive
soil along the line of the Alaska Railroad, and of the won
derful deposits of coal, from which the supply of gasoline
for the entire United States will someday be obtained.
Senator Willis broadacsts to the pubic in emphatic lan
quage all over the United States that Alaska’s possibilities
are not known even by Alaskans, because of their immen
sity and diversity. Alaska will support a -population of
many millions, he truly says.
All of which illustrates the good policy of giving im
portant visitors bushels of facts to think over, as Senatar
Willis was given in Seward from numerous sources.
TELLING THE WORLD
Records compiled by the American Newspapers Pub
lishers’ Association, of which The Gateway is a member,
show the enormous amounts spent last year for the adver
tising of well-known products.
The sum of $4,095,000 was expended alone in adver
tising the Chevrolet car, which heads the list of big appro
priations. Other large expenditures in order of size were:
Camel cigarettes and Prince Albert tobacco, $4,034,
000; Postum and Grape nuts, $3,484,000; American Tobac
co Company, $3,323,000; Ivory Soap and Crisco, $3,051,000;
Dodge automobiles, $3,038,000.
It is reported that these will appear moderate in com
parison with the amount to be used in advertising the new
Ford car during the coming year.
All of which, in view of the great prosperity exper
ienced by the concerns manufacturing the products named,
once more gives a practical illustration of the trite but
trus saying: “It pays to advertise.”
If Seward’s citizens do not make any attempt to go
out and do things for the community its a cinch no other
town is going to do it for her.
Edward L. Doheny, who owns more gasoline than al
most anyone else in the country, recently spent a night
in a Texas desert because he didn’t have any of it with Mm
Next morning he gave $10 for a gallon and a half from a
passing flivver and proceeded to Fort Stockton. Mr. Do
heny is chairman of the-Pan-American Petroleum Co.
Miss Gladys Glad was pronounced by Florenz Zeigfeld
as his most perfect 1927 chorus girl. She is 19, 5 feet 7 in
ches tall, weights 120 pounds and a blonde with long hair.
Naturally, Mr. Ziegfeld’s decision made Gladys glad.
The Seward Gateway is for Alaska first, last and all
the time; and secondly for Seward. •
One inevitable result of President Coolidge’s declina
tion of candidacy was keeping about a dozen other Repub
icans from saying “I do not choose to run.’’
Beyond Mount McKinley lies Fairbanks the Interior
terminal of the Alaska Railroad; the coast terminal is
Seward.
Gold is the root of evil, so tis said, but there are manj
a miner and prospector in the Territory digging for a few
roots.
