HART CUT-OFF OPENING
POSTPONED
The so-called Hart cut-off,
which will save the Alaska High
way travelors 600 miles to and
from Pacific Coast cities, will
not be opened late this year as
earlier announced.
The Alaska Development
Board has received word from
E. C. Carson, Minister of Pub
lic Works of British Columbia,
that because of construction dif
ficulties brought about by unusu
ally wet weather the John Hart
Highway between Prince George
and Dawson Creek, B. C., will
not be completed until early in
1952. Earlier it had been ex
pected the road would open in
September of 1951.
• After this important cut-off
is ready for travel-, it will no
longer be necessary for motor
ists bound to cr from Alaska to
travel as far east as Edmonton
or drive over the 475 miles of
low grade Alberta provincial
highway between there and
Dawson Creek.
Laws and commandments, in
many people’s opinions, were
made to guide the other fellow
always.

ANCHORAGE CANNERY
LOSES TENDER
Anchorage (AP) — The can
nery tender Smith, a converted
sub-chaser, sank in the Gulf or
Alaska Thursday enroute from
Anchorage to Seattle with $40,
000 in canned salmon aboard.
Ten crewmen were saved.
Word of the sinking was re
ceived Saturday by Mrs. Henry
Emard of the Emard Packing
Co., which owned the vessel.
The ship was valued between
$70,000 and $75,000.
Both the cargo of 1,500 cases
of canned salmon and the ship
were partly insured. All the
company's office records, which
were aboard the Smith, were
lost.
The Smith, one of the fastest
boats in Alaska, left here Sun
day with the Katherine Kane,
another Emard ship. Although
the Emards received no details
of the sinking, they said they
were informed the Smith crew
was taken aboard the Kane and
headed for Seattle. They said
they understood there were very
rough seas about 11 a.m., Thurs
day, when the Smith went
down.
