RAILROAD WORK
BE COMPLETED
END OF m
— •
Completion of the government’s
railroad in Alaska from Seward to
Fairbanks by the end of the summer
of 1922 was promised by John W.
Hallowell, assistant secretaary of the
interior, who, with Colonel Frederick
Mears, chairman of the Alaskan en
gineering commission, and Dr. Alfred
H. Brooks, geologist in charge of in
vestigation of mineral resources of
Alaska, made an inspection over the
entire route recently, says the Seattle
Times.
Upon his return to Washington, D.
C., Assistant Secretary Hallowell will
make recommendations to Secretary
Franklin K. Lane for the development
of coal lands of Alaska, but until a
formal report is made to Lhe secre
tary Mr. Hallowell will not discuss his
conclusions.
Mrs. Hallowell accompanied the as
sistant secretary on his trip to Alaska,
planning to make the trip through
Broad pass on horseback, but when
the party reached the last railway
construction camp on Indian river it
was found that the rough trail was
too hard for her, and she remained
there until the party came back.
Assistant Secretary Hallowell and
Dr. Brooks returned from Fairbanks
by way of Chitina and the Guggen
heim railroad to Cordova. While on
the trip they made eight inspections
of underground mines, besides visiting
several surface workings.
“The twenty-two miles of railroad
between Nenana and Fairbanks will
be completed by the middle of No
vember. and this year we will com
plete the work of reopeninig the line
from Seward,” said Assistant Secre
tary Hallowell. “Next year we expect
to be able to reach the Nenana coal
fields from Nenana and Fairbanks and
the Matanuska fields from Seward and
Anchorage. This will afford trans
portation for such collieries as are
working and will expedite the further

“If congress gives us the $17,000,000
continuing appropriation that now
seems probable we will have the en
tire railroad constructed and in op
eration by the end of 1922. Colonel
Mears now is working out plans for
the construction of the $1,500,000 steel
bridge that will span the Tanana river
at Nenana.
“On our inspection trip w7e reached
the end of steel at Mile 237, just be
yond Talkeetna. The last construc
tion camp is located at Mile 256, on
Indian river.
“From that point over Broaa pass
and through Nenana canyon to Mile
356 we made the journey over a very
rough pack trail. It required six days
to complete the one-way journey, and
it was hard going.
.“When the government railway is
completed, through to Fairbanks it
will be a wonderfully scenic route. On
the trail the splendors of nature we
fotmd were unrivaled. We skirted
arohad the foothills of Mount McKin
ley and viewed that mountain from
many angles.
“On the trip I talked to mining
men, farmers and all other people in
Alaska that I could reach, so I be
lieve I have a very good idea of their
hopes and what can be done for them.”
