LANDING FIELDS
ESTIMATES AND -LIST OF TEN
TATIVE FIELDS NEEDED
PREPARED BY A. R. C.
For the comparative low cost of
$905,000 Alaska could be supplied
with airplane landing fields in prac
tically every location needed by air
transportation lines, which would
cover the Territory over five main
routes and twenty-five branch rout
es, according to estimates and figur
es prepared through the cooperation
of the Alaska Road Commission for
Murray Hall, Aeronautics Inspector
for Alaska for the United States De
partment of Commerce.
Together with the estimated cost,
a long list of needed* airfields in the
Territory both emergency and Class
“A” has been prepared for Capt.
Hall aand was forwarded to him
this week by Hawley W. Sterling,
Assistant Chief Engineer for the
Alaska Road Commission.
Total of 119 Fields
This list, to be used as a tentative
program, contains a total of 119
fields, including 70 fields now exist
ing. Of the new ones proposed, 42
should be built as emergency fields,
while seven are recommended as
Class “A” fields, and 13 fields now
existing should be improved to the
Class “A” standard, according to
the proposed program.
If carried out, this program would
involve an expenditure of approxi
mately $905,000 for construction of
new fields and improvement of old
ones, the estimates made by Mr.
Sterling revealed.
New Class “A” fields are suggest
ed for Talkeetna, Boundary, Iliam
na, Dillingham, Skwentna, South
Fork and Bethel.
Alaska has been divided into five
main air routes on this program,
with 25 branch routes off the var
ious main lines. This would pro

THIS MONTH
PUBLIC DEBT TO GO TO NEW
HIGH AND CHIEFS OF INDUS
TRY TO HELP BATTLE AGAINST
DEPRESSION
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3 — With
the annuoncement today by the fed
eral government of plans to borrow'
$909,MO,000, thus pushing the public
debt to a new high for all time, the
statement was made by business in
terests that eminent chieftains of
industry are gathering in New York
to hold this week one of the biggest
pow-wows in years with a view of
taking place on President Roose
velt’s All-American economic recov
ery team to defeat the depression.
Debt of $28,<>M,0M,000
With the borrowing of $900,000,000
this month, the public debt wilt be
more than $28,500,000,000, which is
equivalent to about $266 for every
person in the United States. This
figure of $28,500,000,000 is some $2,
500,M0,000 short of the $31,000,000,
000 that President Roosevelt estimat
ed the public debt would be at the
conclusion of the present fiscal year
which ends next June 30.
The borrowing is part of a financ
ing operation totaling almost $2,000
000,000, which amount of new mon
ey is expected to meet all needs to
next March 15.
At the meeting of leaders of in
dustry in New York this week, a
program will be formulated to com
bat the economic depression. The
meeting is sponsored by the Nation
al Association of Manufacturers
Which issued the call or the assem
bling of the Congress of American
Industry.
To Stand Unitedly
The program to be formulated- will
be one on which industry can stand
unitedly.
"Cooperation with the iMwnlt
Administration will be the keynote,
but while stressing willingness to
cooperate, the program of the con
clave will call for consideration of a
number of New Deal aspects which,
many business leaders assert, tehd
to obstruct private industry in its
effort* to take up slack.
