Loop Road Survey
k Row Assured
Funds have been authorized and
programming for the right-of-way
anrvey has been accomplished for
Hie portion of the proposed Loop
Road from Kodiak to Otmoloi Pt
Opposite Ouzinkie, for this
tsummer.
Priority for the project is re
ceiving strong support from high
way engineers, according to a re
cent letter from Lee Hubbard,
Director of Highways, Alaska
Highway and Public Works De
partment. There has been no
cessation of study nor interest in
the proposed road, he stated.
The extremely high cost of
maintenance of the Antone Larsen
Bay road provides one of the
fJOtnts of strongest support for the
•construction of the new Kodiak
•Ottzinkie road. Both highway de
partments are in accord that only
tdgh standard roads be built in
the. future as an economy factor
maintenance-wise.

For a number of years, much
work has been done in the Kodiak
district road program through the
Kodiak Chamber of Commerce,
and through the help of citizens
of Ouzinkie, Afogaxak and others
in the. .vicinity. “Much progress
had been made along these lines
even before we had -representa
tive# in Juneaq to help put the
project through to realization,”
according to Charles EdriS, chair
man of the public roads commit
tee, for the Chamber ot Commerce.
“Through the cooperation of the
Bureau of Public Roads and the
Alaska Highway and Public Works
Department, the proposed Loop
Road has been approved and plac
ed on the Federal, Highway
System, one of the last major steps
to be accomplished before the
possibility of such a highway
could be realized.”
Edris continued: “It is the
opinion of Chamber officials that
future steps be taken by our law

a better position to make surer
progress than we in Kodiak. Sen.
Owen has been working diligently
on the project, according to re- -
ports. Rep. Haag has assured us
of his continued efforts in behalf
of this important segment of
road.”
“It is up to our legislators to see
that the survey is made this .sum
mer and that construction i$ start
ed as soon as possible,” Edris
stated. “With proper salesmanship
it seems feasible that[ the road
might as well be on the 1960 con
struction program.” i v
Speaker Urges,
Support fcr UN f
The greatest need in the world
today is “bridges of understand
ing to cross the chasms of predju
dice and antagonisms that sepa
rate us.”
By “us ’ the speaker, William
De rr ;e peoples
of th '>rM, nq hr dressed the
Rotar ’"b Tuesd-rs* the Island
Fountain on the "topic “New
World Citizen.”
Mr. De Forge, who has roamed
the world at his own expense as a
traveling speaker for the Baha’i
religion, said that the only solu
tion to the problems confronting
us is the creation of a universality
of peoples.
Nationalism, segregation of
races, and military rivalry must
be overcome and abolished, he
said, or placed, as nationalism,
below the common good.
Mr. De Forge urged support of
the United Nations,, which he de
scribed as the “only effort for
collective security in the world
today.” It will be necessary, he
added, for the nations of the
world to sacrifice some of their
sovereignty to achieve a united
world working for peace.
Drawing om his experiences on
a trip to Central and South
America, he said; the Latins are
confused by the United States,
which they look to as a leader
among democracies-and yet which
puzzles them r by . “support” of
dictatorships they feel are cruel
and oppressive:
There is trerhendous growth
occuring mow in South America,
he said, and said Brazil is now
where America waf 70 years ago
in growth and expansion. Many of
the. Latins, he added are still
Workipt^fdr the freedoms that we
gained in 1776.
