A WELCOME SERVICE
The proposed establishment of an
aerial service between Valdez and
Fairbanks, as announced in yester
day’s issue of the Citizen, will be
welcomed by all residents of this sec
tion of the country. Its benefits
would be many, and undoubtedly the
enterprise would be given support bv
local merchants and private individ
uals in a measure that would mate
rially aid in making the venture a ■
profitable one.
The successful operation of such 1
an aerial route would mean that the '
interior of Alaska would be brought
several days closer to the outside
world. The ^ze of the machines
which the new corporation proposes
to use would insure the practical
value of the route. The investment
which the company is to make is not
an excessive one, and represents lit
tle more than is ordinarily tied up in
equipment and stock by any stage
company seeking to give adequate
service between Fairbanks and the
coast.
There is no reason why such a ser
vice should not be successful from
the very outset. The company is not
experimenting with an untried ma- 1
chine but with one that has demon
strated its serviceability. The dis
distance between Fairbanks and Val
dez is not great, and the country is
of such a nature that the air passage
should not be difficult. The average ,
winter weather should not be a great
handicap and this can probably be
entirely eliminated after a few trial
trips.
The local commercial club has been
for months agitating the establish
ment of an aerial mail service from
the coast to interior parts. It has
taken the matter up with the postal
department and with United States
chamber of commerce. Now that an
Outside organization has announced
its intention of entering the field,
the club should get into communica
tion with the promoters and give
them any data, or other assistance, it
is able to supply.—Fairbanks Citizen.
VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS
Juneau is instituting a campaign
of optimism through the columns of
its daily paper. The move is a good
one. No town ever prospered in
which its own citizens played the
anvil chorus. There are a lot worse
towns than Juneau, but they never
tell about it.—Douglas News.
Wonder if some of the tourists who
enjoyed a cabaret in Ketchikan to
day will stretch their imaginations
enough, when the reach the States,
to say that the old-time dance halls
are still open?—Ketchikan Chronicle.
“Our dumb animals” asks .editor
ially: “If there is a Goat in Your
Home?” and every husband in Al
aska rises to remark, “There is!”—
Valdez Miner.
The statement of Chief Forester
Charles H. Flory that he favors the
present development and use of the
resources of Alaska and not the waste
of idleness is very satisfactory to
those who hope to see great hydro
electric plants, pulp and paper mills
and other industries in operation in
Southeastern Alaska at an early date.
Likewise pleasing is the expressed
desire of Mr. Flory for the co-opera
tion of other officials with him, and
co-operation between the officials and
the people.—Juneau Empire.
A number of high officials of the
Eastern Star lodge who had been
attending the National Assembly at
Seattle, were on board the Jefferson
on her last trip. They were greeted
by the members of the order at vari
ous ports of call.
