FIRST TRANSPORT ANCHORS IN
ARM OFF ANCHORAGE
First army transport to drop
anchor below the city of Anchorage
marked one of the highlights of
the year’s events Tuesday morning.
The belief that Cook Inlet could
not be navigated by dccp-sca-going
ships was exploded by the arrival
of the USAT Gibson, 10,000 ton
cargo ship, loaded with various
supplies for Anchorage and the
Army Base.
The sight of the ship riding
at anchor out in the bay locks
good to those who live in Anchor
age and vicinity. bit h it comes
a promise of the opening of co in
ner cc with the Outside world. Who
knows but ships from the seven
seas may one day drop anchor and
unload their cargoes*upon the
shores of Alaska and in turn bulge
their hatches with the products
from the empire on top of the world,
In the past nothing but small
ships have dared to enter the wa
ters of Cook Inlet. i.Iany salmon
fishing craft navigate the Inlet
yearly. However, they arc small
and could give no estimate of the
possibilities of deep water ships.
Recent surveys for depth and bars
show promise of excellent channels
during this time of the year.
