News-Letter
A J DIMOND.
Delegate from Alaska
, WASHINGTON, D. C.
February 16 1935
The committee on rivers and har
bors has adopted a motion that a
bill authorizing surveys only at this
time would be reported out of com
mittee to the house. This was decid
ed because there is a total of 250
bills for surveys, which if put thru
individually would crowd the calen
dar. Ten of these bills are for har
bor improvements in Alaska, listed
as follows;
II. J. Res. 16 auhtorizing survey
of ship canal across Prince Wales
Island.
II. J. Res. 35 authorizing survey
for improvements of Juneau Har
bor; 36 Bethel; 37 Haines; 38 Metla
katla; 39 Douglas; 93 Sitka; 137 Val
dez; 163 Kake; 166 Unalaska.
The following rivers and harbors
projects have been surveyed and ap
proved by the chief of engineers and
can be developed as soon as provision
can be made for their financing:
Wrangell Harbor
Dry Pass
Stikine River
Kodiak Harbor
Petersburg Harbor
Egegik Harbor
Sitka Harbor
Nome Harbor
Cordova Harbor
Seward Harbor
Ordinarliy action would be start
ed on these by having the bill pass
ed through the House and Senate
and approved by the president, how
ever, at the present time this is par
ticularly difficult because of the ad
ministration’s reluctance to overrun
1 the budget. It is possible that these
projects can be included in the work
of the $-1,880,000,000 Emergency Re
lief Appropriation when that has
been enacted.
Having aided in forming the de
velopment plans for the colony in
the Matanuska Valley, A A Shon
beck is leaving Washington tonight
enroute to his home in Anchorage.
The plans for the settlement are rap
" idly nearing completion but the
funds therefor must be obtained
from the Emergency Relief Appro
priation bill not in the senate, the
same having passed the House some
days ago.
George Kennedy will known hard
ware merchant of Anchorage is vis
iting in the Capitol City.
The Delegate attended a meeting
of the Inter-Departmental Commit
tee at which Dr. Phillip S. Smith of
the Geological Survey talked, sum
marizing the work done in Alaska
and outlining the work still to be
done. Dr. Smith stated that when
the work of the Gelngical Survey
was started in Alaska, the country
even a few miles back from the
main avenues of travel was practi
cally unknown, and even today only
about one half of its nearly 600,000,
square miles has its physical feat
ures shown accurately on existing
maps.
Dr. Smith also showed that the
urgent need of the Territory today
is for reliable information as to the
topography of Alaska, what miner
al deposits of value may be found,
and where and how they are best
reached. This information is needed
by everyone interested in Alaska
from the prospector to the capitalist
as well as those engaged in air trans
portation. The Geological Survey
has met this need as far as its re
sources permitted by mapping geo
logically and topographically on ex
ploratory standards the general fea
tures of some of the known min
eral areas. However, the remain
ing half of the territory is known
to be at least partly mineralized
and should be investigated for its
mineral resources, and a compre
hensive mapping program carried
out.
Dr. Smith estimated that an outlay
of about $6,000,000 would furnish
the present program of investigation
and mapping on exploratory stand
ards, and that if $200,000 was now
available to supplement the regular
appropriation a good start on the
work could be made.
After stopping nearly a month in
Washington, John W. Galloway is
leaving for a short vi it in Boston,
after which lie will stop at his old
home in Indiana for some time, lie
fore returning to Anchorage.
D. C. Brownell. Mayor of Seward,
arrived in Washington this week and
will remain some time, as he is re
presenting the City of Seward on
the bill introduced by the Delegate
to authorize the city to issue bonds
for not to exceed $116,000 in order
to secure from the Public Works
Administration a loan and grant in
