Seward has embarked upon an
advertising campaign designed to i
make the name of Seward synomy- j
mous with that of Alaska.
To many tourists coming here for
the first time this is almost, true
now, but there are so many things
we could do to keep the ball roll
ing. For one thing—I should like
to know what happened to the
proposal to make Marathon a park !
area, thereby forbidding hunting
on the mountain and preventing a
repetition of last year’s tragedy.
Marathon is a playground for
our children and young people, and
the challenge to climb its slopes,
summer or winter, will always be
an attraction for both young and
old.
If hunting is forbidden there will
be an occasional glimpse of bear
and moose to be pointed out to
tourists.
I should like to see a regular
climbing party on boat days during
the tourist season with a campfire
meal at the end of it. No| many
seasons would pass before it could
he made famous. Such a program
could be adverliscd in magazines
like "Holiday” and with tourist
agencies.
Will not one or all of the wom
en’s organizations consider t He pos
sibilities and report to the Cham
ber of Commerce to work out
something of the kind?
We can no longer sit back and
let nature take its course. Let's
give it a boost and everyone knows
that when the womenfolk take a
hand in anything, it. really takes
shape and moves forward. Prob
ably because we grow enthusiastic
and have or take the time for pet
projects.
So, once again, please ladies,
consider my proposition seriously,
not just this suggestion but others
which you must have of your own.
Enlarge upon the idea of boosting
Seward and let's get to work—
women's work.

Airline Plea
The Alaska Development Board
was advised last week by Joseph
J. O'Connell, Jr., Chairman of the
Civil Aeronautics Board, that the
C.A.B. has granted an extension of
time until February 1 for receipt
of public comments on proposed
revisions of section 292.1 of the
economic regulations governing
service by irregular carriers.
The Development Board recent
ly requested the C.A.B. to grant
the extension of time since Al
askans had not had an opportuni
ty to give proper study to the pro
posed revisions, which would dras
tically affect many Alaska air
carriers.
Chairman O’Connell notified the
Development Board further that
oral argument on the proposed re
vision had been set for in a.nr.
February 15 in room 5042 of the
Commerce Building in Washing
ton. His wire stated that oral
argument would be limited to one
full day for all interested parties
and that such parties were urged
to combine presentations and to
speak through a single representa
tive wherever possible.
at a meeting m tne AiasKa De
velopment Board which concluded
in January last week an emphatic
protest against the proposed re
gulations was wired to Washing
ton. The Board pointed out that
undependability of other forms of
transportation to and within Al
aska left the Territory dependent
to an ( unustial degree upon air
carriers. The Development Board
asked the Civil Aeronautics Board
to extend and expand air service
to and within Alaska, instead of
