Wednesday in Howe high school. “Lack of transportation and not the Arctic climate has been responsible for the failure to effec~ tively exploit Alaska’s immense natural resources,” Father Hubbard says.

ADVENTURER SUTTON REPORTED JAP VICTIM

Daily Mall said yestérday that Frank (One-armed) Sutton, famous soldier of fortune, died after prolonged

torture by the Japanese who captured him in a Hongkong hotel, . The almost legendary Sutton was reputed fo have killed 16 men in China with an iron bar, and when he was captured in Pekin: blew a hole in the great wall to escape. The Daily Mail said a friend learned that Sutton finally succumbed to months of torture, inflicted because he apparently refused to talk to the Japanese about Chinese affairs. His hand was blown off by a Turkish bomb at Gallipoli, and he had a hook fitted to the stub. He once was 8 warlord of Szechuan in China, then chief adviser to Mar-

shal Chang Tso-Lin.
