Want Paper Mill Put In Alaska. WANT PAPER MILL PUT IN ALASKA Correspondence of the Assoicated Press.) KETCHIKAN, Alaska, March 10. -- (By Mail.) -- Officials of the government forest service are making every effort to induce paper manufacturers to establish pulp and paper mills in Alaska's forest supervisor for Alaska. Active steps toward establishing mills probably will be taken soon, he said. Mr. Flory denied reports that the forest service has put stumbling blocks in the way of prospective paper manufacturing companies. "We are offering better inducements right now than the Canadian government," he said. "We are going to do everything possible and within reason to aid the establishement of paper mills."
