The Chamber of Commerce ha;s been
■•advised by wire from Fairbanks that
• the postoffice department is contem
plating changing the routing of In
terior mail from Cordova via tlm Rich
ardson road to Seward and the Broad
Pass route. Fbr several months Ne
nana, Anchorage- a ad So warn' nam-c
hers have been attempting to have
mail and express routed via the Broad
Pass route instead of via ChiMiia and
the Richardson road, and apparently
their efforts have been successful.
Fairbanks has made a strong pro
test over the change, as has Cordova,
but if the postoffice department ex
hibits the perspicacity in this matter
it has shown in other matters touch
ing Alaska mails it may yet route the
mails, via Iliamria and Cold Bay.
If the mails are routed via Broad
Pass, Fairbanks citizens will be from
four to eight days longer in getting
their mails, and the change will cause
a great inconvenience to roadhouses
and mine owners along the Richard
son rdad, unless a branch mail line
is established.
The government officials face an
enormous deficit in the operation of
the Interior railway and must make
good somehow.,
