Far East Markets
Are Alaska's Hope
“Alaska is in a unique position
to serve the Far Eastern market’,
the Alaska State Chamber of Com
merce in convention in Fairbanks
was told Saturday evening by
Christian J- Matthews, Western
Divison manager for Arthur D.
Little, Inc.
The State has a contract with
the firm, an international research
company, for a study of Alaska’s
resources. The firm is studying
nine major fields which are metals
and minerals, oil and gas, coal,
hydroelectric power, forest pro
ducts, agricultural products, tour
ism, transportation and finance.
“The state’s more important re
sources are those specifically in
demand in Japan and which are
now purchased on the world mar
ket”, Matthews added. The firm is
currently making arrangements for
a series of meetings in Japan to
present the full-range of Alaskan
opportunities to key Japanese
groups.
The development of Alaska iron
ore deposits is probably the most
interesting of the minerals and
metals opportunities in Alaska,
although unconventional methods
will be needed to overcome eco
nomic hurdles, according to the
preliminary study.
Heavy emphasis has been placed
on Alaskan tourism by ADL, and
work to date has included studies
of tourist attitudes toward Alaska,
the “package tour”, how effective
ly tourism is promoted by private
and public interests and how pro
motion funds are allocated. ADL
anticipates that a number of seg
ments of the tourism industry will
be studied in much greater depth.

AMERICA’S THRIVING
AGE OF ACTION I
I BECAUSE OF AMERICA’S VITALITY... became the facts
f of growth and progress are before everyone’s eyes... because
the restless, creative energies of Americans have moved our
economy into an age of action... life in 1960 takes on a new,
exciting dimension. Here are some of the ways Standard is
expanding the thriving economic fronts of today into your future.
ACTION IN HAWAII New landmark in Hawaii's
economy is Standard's refinery.. .opening next month.
Creating new jobs, new payrolls and products "made in
Hawaii," this huge plant will cost $65,000,000 — new
progress for the Islands.
ACTION IN ALASKA Oil it on the horizon — the first
commercial production. To speed it to tankers, Standard
participated in construction of the just-completed 22-mile
pipeline. Standard's investment in the last two years has
been three times what the U.S. paid for Alaska in 1867.

ACTION IN AGRICULTURE To keep the notion's
productivity rising we completed a $5,000,000 chemical
fertilizer plant this year in Washington. This month, in
Iowa, we started work on another, costing $22,000,000...
the sixth plant in ORTHO's wide-spread agricultural family.
ACTION 1960-1961 This year we’re investing about $400,000,000 to
find and produce the oil you’ll need... and for new plants and equipment
to serve our customers better in an expanding economy. Next year we
expect to expend a like amount, because the future of a growing America
will demand more and more oil. The best estimates indicate use of motor
gasoline in the West, for example, will rise nearly 4% in 1961 over I960.
That $400,000,000 is a practical measure of our confidence in the future.

ACTION IN RESEARCH How far can
science and imagination commercially
"stretch" the molecule of oil? Into colored
plastic highways? Into a new wear-defying
fiber for clothing? We're backing our
research staff — I400|strong — with
$20,000,000 in i960.. .to find new ideas
and practical answers in this age of action.
ACTION ON THE HIGHWAYS In I960,
under highway building programs, four
billion dollars' worth of new roads will
connect the nation with its future. As a
major supplier of asphalt, Standard helps
pave the way at lower cost. For asphalt
puts down three smooth miles of highway
for the cost of two in other pavements.
