(Continued from Yesterday.)
The committee finds that while j
the Alaska petroleum leasing law is
' liberal for developed fields, for those '
, where there are some surface indi-'
cations of petroleum, and for those
that are readily accessible, its terms
do not encourage the search for oil
in inaccessible wildcat territory. The
committee believes, for example, that;
to induce capital to explore for oil i
'in the Arctic coast region of Alaska,
where there ate some indications of
its presence, a more generous law
must be enacted. It recommends
;
that this matter be taken under ad
visement and that appropriate legis
' lation be asked for.
Lumber and Wood Pulp.
i Wood pulp and print paper fur
nish one of the greatest immediate
opportunities for the profitable em
ployment of labor and capital in
I Alaska. The Forest Service esti
mates an ultimate possible annual
.production <vf about 2.000,000 cords
!of pulpwood from Alaska timber,1
'yielding a newsprint product equal
j to one-third of our present annual
consumption. The Tongass National
forest (Southeastern Alaska) affords
.the best opportunity for immediate
j development, and the committee is
.informed that one bid for 100,000,
j 000 feet of pulp timber in this dis
trict has been received. To encour
] age and hasten the development of
Alaska timber lands the committee
recommends that:
| 1. An intensive campaign be made
for the development of Alaska pulp
Iwood by laying before the pulp and
; paper manufacturers and consumers
i the possibilities of the'immediate de
Jvelopment of an industry in the
j Territory.
j 2. The surveys of the pulp-wood
timber and water powers of the
coast region be extended;
3. A reconnaissance be made by
the Forest Service of timber re
sources of the Interior, especially
with a view of determining whether
they have values for pulp;
4. The export of birch and Sitka
spruce timber be encouraged in ev
ery way;
5. The Forest Service investigate
the possibilities of reforestation of
the burnt-over lands of the Interior
of Alaska.
Water Power.
The committee finds that there
are extensive water powers in Alas
ka; that the exact information about
them is exceedingly meager. These
water powers are important to the
development of the mining, cannery,
and pulp-wood industries. The only
investigations made of the water
power are carried on by small allot
ments made from the appropriations
for the investigations of the mineral
resources of Alaska, thereby de
creasing the funds available for oth
er important surveys of mineral
wealth.
The committee therefore recom
mends that Congress be asked for
an appropriation of $40,000 to in
vestigate the water resources of Al
aska with reference to their use to
mining, wood-pulp, and other indus
tries.
FiiksHu. '
The data collected by the com
mittee relating to the fisheries clear
ly indicate that there is urgent need
of legislation to protect the salmon
industry of Alaska so as to prevent
the depletion of the fisheries; also
that the halibut fisheries of Alaska
and adjacent international waiters
are seriously threatened with ex
haustion unless steps be taken look
ing to their conservation.
The committee therefore endorses
the general plans of the Department
of Commerce looking to the- con
servation of the salmon and halibut
fisheries.
The facts in hand indicate the
necessity of an extension of the in
vestigations of the commercial fish
eries of Alaska, notably along the
Alaska peninsula, the Aleutian is
lands, and in Bering sea. The com
mittee recommends that these in
vestigations be vigorously advanced
by the Bureau of Fisheries and that
additional appropriations be asked
for if needed to carry out this plan.
Agriculture and Grazing.
The committee finds that there
are in Alaska (a) large areas of
farming land, (h) some stock rang- J
es. and (c) extensive reindeer pas
tures; also that the most promising
present field for Homesteaders is the
region tributary to the Alaska rah
road. The committee reeon'in“nds
that:
1. The Department of Agriculture
appoint a sub-agent, qualified by
Alaska experience, to be in charge
of agricultural investigations in the
Susitna, Tanana, and Yukon val
leys, to have general supervision of
the Matanuska and Fairbanks sta
tions, and to be provided with the
necessary assistants and facilities, so
that he may carry on personal in
vestigations (1) of the needs of the
homesteaders, and (2) of the unde
veloped agricultural resources of in
land Alaska; also that he work in
dose co-operation with the Land
and Industrial department of the
Alaskan Engineering commission;
2. The Agricultural Department
make an investigation and report on
the commercial possibilities of de
veloping a sugar beet industry in
Alaska and, if this be practical, pre
sent a plan for bringing this about;
3. The Agricultural Department
.make an investigation of the com
mercial possibilities of stock raising
■on the Alaska peninsula and on
'Kodiak and other islands of South
western Alaska and, if this be prac
tical, recommend means by which
such an industry can be developed;
4. All Alaska ocean, river, and
land transportation lines be request
ed to grant special passenger rates
to farm settlers, and special freight
rates on household goods, farm im
plements, breeding stock, and fer
tilizer for use of farm settlers;
$. The subdivisional surveys be
extended by the General Land Office
over Alaska farming lands likely
soon to be homesteaded; the De
partment of Agriculture be request
ed to designate the lands which
should be covered by such''surveys;
and pending the extension of the
regular surveys, the General Land
Office make the surveys of indi
vidual homesteads as rapidly as pos
sible;
6. Mr. W. T. Lopp, of the Bureau
of Education, make a report on the
possibilities of the Alaska reindeer
industry, together with a detailed

7. Steps be taken to transfer
government or native reindeer herds
to the Broad Pass region and thus
make them tributary to the rail
road ;
8. The reorganization of the ocean
transportation to provide material
increase of cold storage capacity on
vessels running to Alaska ports, %.o
meet the developments of the rein
deer industry as well as that of
frozen fish.
The committee further recom
mends that the following legislation
be asked for:
1. An extension of the Farmer’s
Loan Act to Alaska;
2. An extension of the Stock
Raising Homestead Act to Alaska,
modified to meet the conditions in
the Territory.
Publicity.
The committee finds need for in
telligent publicity for Alaska, and
recommends that:
! 1. This should take the form o;
placing before the business inter
ests of the country the possibility
of the industrial development of tht
Territory. To bring this about
studies of the various possible in
dustries, such as have been recom
mended above,’should be made, and
statements prepared covering the
elements entering into such develop
ment;
2. No effort should be made to
bring to Alaska permanent residents
j beyond the capacity of the indus
trial development to maintain them;
3. A publicity campaign should
be directed to the attraction of
|tourists and pleasure seekers to Al
aska ;
4. The work of the Territorial
Publicity bureau, the Land and In
jdustrial department of the Alaskan
I Engineering committee, and the va
| rious federal bureaus engaged in
advertising Alaska, and, so far as
possible, that of private agencies
such as the Seattle and the several
Alaska chambers of commerce,
| should be co-ordinated.
