MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Associated Press is exclusively entitled to the use for re-pubii
cation of all news dispatches credited to it or not otherwise credited in
this paper and also all the local news published herein
The News regrets exceedingly
the necessity which compels a re
turn to four pages. The eight-page
edition, published during the last
two weeks, was largely in the na
ture of a town boaster edition, just
to show the world that Netiana is
still on top and going strong.
The News would like to keep 01
printing eight pages. The News
plant is one of the largest and
test in the Territory, capable oi
turning out a 2 4-page paper every
day, wore there business enough to
justify such an edition. And the
management of the paper and every
one connected with it would take
keen delieht in going the limit.
But. while it may not be neces
sary soon to tax tile plant to its
fullest capacity., there is reason to
believe the time is not far away
when conditions will demand and
insure ample support for a paper
published every day or one of larger
size, published ever;.- other day The
News will not be backward in her
alding the arrival of that era of
prosperity and solid growth which
all agree is approaching the Terri
tory with increasing stride. And it
is the honest conviction of The
News that Nenana will be the first
to be benefitted by improved Terri
torial conditions and that the bene-,
fit will take the form of perma- !
ment growth. And it is gratifying
to note that the feeli.ig of optimism
is general, not onlv in Nenana, but
throughout the North. Everybody!
senses the coming of bigger and
better times and everyone is tak
ing a new hold upon himself that
the wave of prosperity and oppor- •
tunity may not sweep him oir his
feet.
FALL AND THE RAILROAD
A Washington correspondent, in
a discussion of the opposition in
Alaska to the suggestion that the
Government railroad might be hand
ed over to private interests to op
erate, says "it is true that when
Secretary Fall was before the sen
ate committee recently he declared
himself not in ger.erai sympathy
with the idea of Government owner
ship and operation of transporta
tion facilities. He has not, however,
determined a policy as to the oper
ation of the Alaska railroad when
completed.”
"That", the secretary is quoted
as saying, “is something to be de
terminer* when the railroad .= more
nearly completed than it is now.
I have not given thought to the
business organization to operate the
road when it is completed, nor will
1 go fully into that subject until
I have made a personal inspection
and examination of the prepertv in
Alaska next spring."
