GOOD NEIGHBOR NOME
(Fairbanks Daily News-Miner)
The presence in Fairbanks the last several days of
members of the Alaska legislature from the Second
Division, of which Nome is the headquarters, empha
sizes the close contact that region has with this.
Lying side by side, the Second and the Fourth Divi
sions of Alaska, constitute the northernmost portion of
Alaska, sweeping from the Arctic shores southward
hundreds of miles, a virtual empire within itself, and
to a vast and. predominating degree, with common in
terests and problems.
Nome and Fairbanks, as the capital and trading and
transportation bases of the two divisions, are natural
hubs of contact and the hearts of business and other
activities of the two divisions.
Major airplane routes connect tne two cities ana
bring them into daily contact. The average plane
spans the distance between Fairbanks and Nome in five
hours or less. Both cities are also o n the natural route
and future great aviation highway which will connect
the Occident and the Orient. Both cities have a com
mon interest in the development of this great Alaskan
‘hnd world route.
Mining, as the major industry and the life of both
the Second and Fourth Divisions, presents the major
industry in which the two divisions share a common
interest.
In respect to the needs of more and better airfields,
highways and air and local mail services and radio and
other communications, the two divisions also have com
mon interests of first importance.
Winter travel between Nome and the Outside and
the transport of Outside mail to and from Nome and
Second Division points has gravitated this way for nat
ural reasons and means much to Fairbanks as well as
to Nome.
Many supplies which Nome and Second Division
mining, trapping and other centers and outposts receive
in winter via plane, and which constitute an ever-in
creasing volume, are distributed from this center.
Progress and prosperity of the Second Division
mean much to Fairbanks in way of trade and patronage
from her traveling public. Amity and good will pre
vailing among,the peoples of the two divisions and urn
ited action in the future will go far toward speeding
their progress and prosperity.
The mutual interests of the two great divisions—
embracing the Inland Empire of Alaska—the only divi
sions whose domain is washed by the waters of the Arc
tic Ocean and served likewise by that great inland art
ery of commerce, the Yukon River, are indisputable
and lasting. -- " »
