NORTHERN BLOCK CORDOVA, ALASKA |
miles of Arctic snow trail along
America’s northernmost coast line
from the Kotzebue sound and Point
Barrow, in Alaska, to the mouth ot
the Mackenzie river, in Canada, are
being “mushed” this winter by Arch
deacon Hudson Stuck, Episcopal mis
sionary to Alaska, on a visit to posts
established in the far North by his
church, according to word received
here.
Archdeacon Stuck is known ovei
Alaska as a writer and a hardy trav
eler. In 1913 he was at the head o
a party that reached the highest poin
of Mount McKinley, the highest poin
on the North American continent.
According to rough estimates mad<
here, it is probable the archdeaeot
will cover between 1,500 and 2,001
miles this winter. It is thought hi
left the Yukon river late last fall
journeyed to the Kotzebue, a tribu
tary, crossed the divide to the head
waters of the Kobuck river, and fol
lowed that river to its mouth oi
Kotzebue sound. Prom Kotzebue h
probably journeyed overland to Poin
Barrow, up at the corner of the cor
tinent. It is believed probable tha
at this time he is nearing the end o
his long trip eastward from Barroi
to the Mackenzie. From the Mackei
zie he probaMy will “come out” ove
the Rat Portage across the continei
tal divide and down the Porcupin
river to Fort Yukon, on the Yukot
From the time he touched the K<
buck river until he leaves the Yuko
he will be within the Arctic circli
It is believed very probable that h
will pass Herschel island, where th
explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson Is r
ported to be wintering.
Letters received at Nome, Alaski
several months ago from school teacl
ers on the Kotzebue stated that Arc!
deacon Stuck had passed their schoo
on his way to Point Barrow and th
Mackenzie. It was reported in Non
last summer that he intended makin
this trip this winter.

WASHINGTON, April 24.—Protec
tion for the gateways of Alaska by
adequate coast and harbor charting
was urged in a special bulletin issued
today by the Coast and Geodetic Sur
vay. With more than 26,000 miles
of detailed coast line, Alaska cannot
be approached without plying the
waters that nearly surround it, be
i cause gigantic mountain ranges, that
may never be surmounted by rail
roads, bar the path to the east.
In fifty years the Coast and Geo
■ detic Survey has had less than $4,ooo,
• 000 to spend in Alaskan waters on
work “that should invariably precede
. development of a new country.” Ex
I ports from Alaska through these
« waterways have amounted to $708,
l| 000,000 in fifty years, reaching the
II greatest amount last year, when
> $94,709,359 worth of goods was sent
j out of the territory which originally
- cost the government $7,200,0000. Im
- Sports to Alaska in fifty years have
-I amounted to *412,000,000, showing the
ljvast amount of trade carried on with
3 the territory solely by means of
t ships.
The bulletin says Alaska has many
t fine undeveloped harbors, of which
f little is known. Owing to lack of
]f j charts, 224 American vessels have
J been lost in Alaskan waters during
r the last twenty years, carrying tc
i- their deaths 280 persons. About 7(
e per cent of the losses were due tc
l. strandings which might have beei
i- prevented by accurate surveys,
i “There should be the most serious
!. thought given now to taking care o
e Alaska’s greatest need,” the bulletii
b concludes. “The war should not de
>- lay preparation for the work, as im
mediate provision looking to the cart
i, of the preliminaries will mean thi
i- saving possibly of years.”
