IT’S UP TO SEWARD NOW—
In a news story in another part of this paper a letter from
the Department of the Interior is quoted, in which the In
terior Department puts itself on record as favoring the Sew
ard airport and offers to support any bill put before congress.
This leaves the problem squarely in the hands of the air
port committee. In the past Seward has had like offers, but
has dallied and fiddled around till the opportunity was lost.
It is up to the airport committee to formulate a program
and submit it to Delegate Bartlett. Seward has to know wha£
it wants before it has any right to make requests, and it is
time that differences of opinion are resolved so that a plan
can be agreed upon. Even it it is not a perfect plan for a per
fect airport, it is better than no airport at all.
Even now we should have the improved facilities so that
fresh produce from Seattle could be brought into Seward.
It should not be necessary to carry air freight to Seward by
rail.
The onlv thing that can bring a better airport to Seward
is ACTION.

to possess immense quantities of
low-grade coal suitable for the
production of the synthetic fuel
desired and may be in the greatest
need for local production of such
fuel because of the difficulties and
limitations of transportation which
are inherent in its location.”
Tests made by the Federal Gov
ernment have proven that coal
found in Alaska is well adapted

, available supply far in excess of
j requirements.
| “The United States Army has
called for the black-topping of all

of the by-products of the manufac

suitable for black-topping these
roads.”
Briquets form another by-product
that may be used for fuel and that
could be sold for export to foreign
