THE DEVELOP ALASKA PLAN
The letter received Monday by The Nugget from
Art Brown of Nome, conveys his viewpoints regard
ing a question which is of the greatest interest to Nome
and Seward Peninsula, particularly. Other parts of Al
aska would be affected similarly, but in Nome and this
section of the Territory, we are always on the lookout
for possibilities of development of one of the greatest
placer regions in the land.
For thirty-five years this section has been produc
ing great amounts of gold—only last season was ship
ped through Nome the largest consignment of recent
years—two million two hundred odd thousand dollars
—but this is by no means the peak which could be
reached by scientific development of our many resourc
es, yet untouched and undiscovered.
A comprehensive sketch of the plan now under
promotion by Rex Beach, and which several Nomeites
and other Alaskans have at various times brought to
the attention of officials, is being prepared and we will
be able to present it to the public in the near future.
It is a constructive endeavor to develop a country
whose natural handicaps make industry a hard row to
hoe, and we are first, last and always, behind any honest
effort to bring further prosperity and development of
our section, and Alaska as a whole, to the front, for the
benefit of Alaskans, who are trying to advance our
Territory.

Science Notes
A chemical process has
been discovered that causes
roots to grow from the
stems of certain plants
which, when planted, grow
more quickly than ordinary
seedlings or cuttings.
A mechanical globe show
ing the world’s features on
a scale of one to one mill
ion is being constructed for
the Paris exposition of 19
37 on which model ships
will ply the seas.
For testing pumps re
searchengineers of a large
oil refining company have
built a well 150 ft. deep in
which pressures and other
conditions of wells 5.000
feet deep can be simulated.
To assist the domestic
charcoal industry Spain has
levied a tax on all wood
charcoal imported and has
required importers to pur
chase domestic charcoal in
proportion to imports.
