W o have Looked forward for
main years to a road to Anchor
age. A Lie r Friday we will have
ii. Pari of the new highway is
Mill not conducive to pleasure
driving, but it is passable and it
now possible to see what the
road of the future will oe. Tire
culmination of a dream.
Just what will a highway mean
to us in Seward?
Travel by private automobile
to .Anchorage and the Outside.
A big city to visit within a few
hours driving time.
Easier access to the medical
centers for treatment of the eyes,
to dentists, etc. It means a larg
er shopping opportunity, which
in turn will confront our own
business houses with a form of
competition they have never be
fore had to cope with.
There are other ways in which
t’ne highway will affect our city,
some of of them less pi asant.
For instance, this city is now ai
the' end of a long road. As t’ne
jumping off place, it is bound to
attract some of the settler> who
arrive in Alaska broke, without
homes, jobs or prospects. What
are we to do about them?
The indigent and the criminal
will seek it out as the last place
in which to hole up for the win
ter. or camp out for the summer.
What can we do about these?
On the good side of the bal
ance we can still add the new
freighting business by truck, and
the tourist trade. It remains to
be seen whether a new link with
with the Interior is a mixed

performance that saves dimes and dollars on your job.
