GOVERNOR PLANNING VISIT
TO ANCHORAGE VERY SOON
(Anchorage Times)
In a private letter received in
Anchorage, Governor Bone announc
es that he expects to visit Anchor
age within a month or six weeks
and may take a trip farther interior.
Speaking of the outlook this sum
mer, Governor Bone says: "There
will be a big development toward
the westward, with every prospect
that coal will be shipped out of
Alaska during the season. Certainly
the needs of all coast communities
should be met with native coal. A
disposition will be shown of help
fulness toward all private enter
prises."
The governor expressed his confi
dence in the visit of the Presi
dent in August, stating that Con
gress will likely adjourn by July 15,
or not later than August first.
Rod McKenzie, E. Sandberg and
Harry Weir are among the recent
arrivals at the Southern.
