That Cordova, his home city, is a
steadily growing place that is always
prosperous, is the opinion of A. J.
Adams, Mayor of Cordova and a
member of the territorial fish com
mission, who arrived here on the
Alaska for the first annual meet
ing of the commission which is to
be held next week.
“Cordova has everything that any
other city in the territory has and
then some,” said Mr. Adams today.
“The copper mines producing mil- |
lions of dollars each year are all
tributary to that city. Eight can-1
neries, three of which are right in :
the city, are an added source of
j wealth making Cordova a good town.’
Continuing, Mr. Adams said: “We
| have no booms, but the growth of the
city has been steady with assurance
that the future will be bright.”
Mr. Adams will remain here about
a week.—Juneau Empire.

Conditions in Cordova this summer
are most promising, according to Mr.
Deiry. The oil fields of the Katalla
region have created much inquiry,
and prospectors, surveyors and men
looking for investments in oil pro
perties are leaving on every boat for
l that region.
Thfe coal prospects of the Bering
river field are being steadily devel
oped, and Cordova will soon be burn

place.—Juneau Capital.
COAL AND OIL DEVELOPMENT
Oil drilling in the Katalla field
was resumed yesterday when two ex- i
pert drillmen recently brought north ;
form California arrived on the
ground, according to a statement j
made by George C. Hazelet, who
stopped off a few hours in Juneau
enroute to the South on the North
western. Work will continue all
t
summer.
The drilling is being done on
Claim No. 1 on the patented area
owned by Mr. Hazelet and his asso
ciates. The well is already down to
jthe 1,300 foot level. Only one string
of tools will be run this season and
it is planned to carry the points to
the 3,000 foot level unless a producer
is brought at a lesser depth.
Coal (development, according to
Mr. Hazelet, is being continued in the
Bering River coal fields. A crew
of 50 men are engaged in this work
l and will continue operations until
the worth of the field has been
definitely ascertained. Sufficient
work has not been done to make any
accurate statement as to the prob
able success.
The railroad construction project
into that district is being held in
abeyance pending the result of the
coal development work.—Juneau Em

DEVELOPMENT
ALASKAN PULP
NOWASSURED
PORTLAND, May 25 (Special to
Times).—The forest service is def
initely committed to the policy of do
ing its utmost for the fullest devel
opment of the timber resources of
Alaska. This statement, made by the
District Forester Cecil upon his re
turn from an important conference
in Seattle, is fully borne out by the
recent decision to make more flexible
the present timber sale contract re
quirements of the forest service to
better fit the unusual Alaskan condi
tions.
Mr. Cecil brought out the fact that
although the forest service during the
past ten years has sold some 400 mil
lion feet of timber from the Alaskan
national forests and that the service
has consistently encouraged the sale
of Alaskan pulp woods, that due to
the present seriousness of the news
print situation a more flexible policy
is now justified for the territory. The
new policy provides for granting con
tracts for sufficient timber for a 30
year cut, and makes provision that
where additional timber is available,
a 15-year additional supply will be
reserved for existing pulp plants.
The new contracts, the district for
ester emphasized, are to provide for
a readjustment of prices at intervals
of five1 years after cutting begins,
the first readjustment to be made
seven years after signing the con
tract, if the full two-year period allow
ed for plant construction has been
used. In addition, a maximum price is
fixed which in no case will be ex
ceeded in the readjustment covering
the second 5-year period. A third
point of the new policy is that the
readjusted pulpwood rates are to be
based on current pulpwood values in
eoutheastern Alaska.
The whole aim of the now policy,
the district forester stressed, is to
make clear that the forest service is
willing to make every effort consist
ent. with existing federal laws to bring
about the fullest development and use
of the pulp timbers of the Alaskan
national forests.
