Aklavik. June 29 + 30.
Worked in lab + dismantled outboard
motor. Had a session with Dr. [J.] Harvey
on native vital statistics + economics

times come they have difficulty

backlog. He thinks that a gov't [government]
fur administrator + clerk should
be appointed here + that the natives

He would keep an accounting of

the sale. Payment would be
on the basis of a 25% deduction
