we think that the trucking In
dustry on which will depend the
distribution system on the fu
ture roads of Alaska, be given
the co-called Army Dock as a
truck terminal. And that the
May Reduce Stateside
Rail Rates
Efforts are being made to re
duce transcontinental rail rates
on materials consigned to West
Coast ports for transhipment to
points in the Territory of Alas
ka. Up to the present time state
side railroads have denied re
quests for inclusion of Alaskan
traffic at export and import
levels although such rates have
applied to Hawaii, Japan, etc.
An example of difference in
rates arc as follows: Freight, all
kinds, Chicago to Seward, Alas
ka is $3.70 (stateside rail por
tion) while same to Honolulu or
Yokohama is $2.41. The $3.70
is subject to additional port
charges but the $2.41 includes
port absorptions, even though
the rail lines handle the same
commodity from the same ori
gin via the same route, for the
same distance, in the same train,
via the same port and pier. Fed
eral and Territorial agencies are
cooperating in an endeavor to
correct such discrimination.

“And as a second proposal,”
he said, “that is In line with the
current adrnimistration’s policy
•of getting out of competitive en
terprise, we recommend that all
of the port facilities at Seward
be turned over to the City of
Seward and operated not by a
controlled government agency
but by an Impartial Seward Pori
Commission.’'
In closing, Gagnon saild thal
only by working together, b>
having the same objectives ol
developing the Territory, car
progress be achieved.
“There is one thing constantlj
before us,” he said. “Alaska will
be a great country some day
with a great population and a
great net-work of roads, and
wherever there is a highway
built, be it to Cordova, to Nome,
to Point Barrow, or the distant
reaches of the Porcupine, you
will hear he steady purr of a
truck, hauling the goods of com
merce and helping to make Alas

live.”
