There are four appointments due j to be made by the President for Alaska, all under the Department of Justice. The term of Judge G. J. Lomen at Nome expired in the spring of 1930 and his reappoint ment was sent to the Senate about a year ago. The Judiciary com mittee, however, decided not to recommend his confirmation, but his successor has not yet been named. In the case of Marshal Chas. D. Jones, who was reappoint ed a year ago, objection was made to his confirmation but no action was taken by the Judiciary com mittee, and he continues to serve. In the Third Division Marshal Harvey P. Sullivan’s term expired ; last year but his successor has not been named. A similar situation exists in the Fourth Division, where Judge Cecil H. Clegg has just com pleted his 10th year, but- he has j not received an appointment tc ; the third term. Assistant Attorney | General Sisson, in charge of the ; Administrative Department, has in ! dicated that he will take up these | appointments with Delegate Wick I ersham after the holiday recess j There are various applicants for , the several appointments. The fact ! that the Department has had a i bill introduced in Congress to com- j ! bine the Second or Nome division j with the Fourth or Fairbanks divi- 1 sion, effective July 1 next, will not! I necessarily interfere with appoint- j I ments, as the bill may not pass. | | Among the recess appointments J sent to the Senate was that of Le roy M. Sullivan, District Attorney at Nome. The Judiciary Committee inquired of the Delegate his pleas ure in the matter, which brought forth a prompt and cordial en dorsement of Mr. Sullivan. * * * -* j The other night Rev. Bernard R. Hubbard, S. J., head of the geology department of the University of Santa Clara, Calif., gave a very in teresting talk before the National Geographic Society, in the Wash ington Auditorium. Last spring Fa ther Hubbard led an exploration party into Interior Alaska and made amazing discoveries in the world’s I largest active volcanoes, Aniak chak and Veniaminof. These vast craters are 21 and 20 miles in cir cumference, respectively, and with- | in them were found geological fea- j j tures which recalled the beginnings of our earth. On May 1, the vol |cano erupted with great violence, j and was still erupting in June when ; he flew over it and examined it from the air. Six weeks were spent in collecting specimens and motion- I picture film. Scott W. Bone, son of the former : Governor of Alaska, Hon. Scott C., | Bone, was a recent visitor in Wash- j ! ington, where he attended the an- ! nual dinner of the Gridiron Club. He is connected with the field serv ice of the Federal Trade Commis sion. I Leo P. Bott, Jr., whose home is in j | Little Rock, Ark., but who usually ; spends summers in Alaska, spent a ; couple of days in Washington and proudly boasts of his ownership of “Stikine,” an Indian bear dog, that he received from Wrangell. Delegate Wickersham has intro- j cluced a bill in Congress to empow- j er the town of Petersburg to issue j bonds to the amount of $100,000. The money derived is for the im- j provenfent and extension of the! municipal electric light and power ; plant, improvement of the water and sewer system of the town, and ; to retire $35,000 of outstanding j bonds which bear 7 per cent inter- j est. A bill was also introduced toj allow the town of Juneau to use' the funds of a previous bond issue i for the purpose either of improv- j ing the sewerage system or of con- j structing permanent streets in the j town.
