j During Winter
* | The Alaska Steamship Com
11 pany plans to halt passenger
, service to Alaska during the
j winter months unless the ser
vice can be made more ee
' onomical, a representative of
\ the company told the Anehor
j age Chamber of Commerce
, early this week.
Winter passenger service to
Kodiak was halted several
j years ago because of the
scarcity of passengers, and
Kodiak since then has been
served only by freighters ex
cept for the two summer
; momhs.
j Henry Clark, the ASC’s
11 Washington, D. C., represen
I. tive told the Anchorage group
j that the line is considering
I several possible solutions to
I the problem. One of these,
to aii'.curaiigeiiieiu WILil mill"
tary officials for carrying de
, pendents to and from the ter
ritory, Another is the possi
bility of chartering ships for
other routes during the win
ter. Negotiations are in pro
gress now, he said, for charter
ing the Aleutian for the win
[ter, for Hawaiian service.
The company had announced
last spring that it was consid
ering discontinuing Alaska
passenger runs because the
long winter cie-up made oper
ations unprofitable. Clark also
said that Canadian Pacific is
ending passenger service to
Alaska next month instead of
in November because they are
losing money.
