erty assessed shall be personally liable for the amount of taxes assessed
against such property and such taxes, together with penalties and in
V terest, may be collected after the same become due, in a personal ac
f tion brought in the name of the School District against such owner in
F any court of competent jurisdiction.
CARL SCHMIDT, Assessor, School Board.
(Continued from Yesterday.)
Navigation.
The committee finds that only j
about nine percent of Alaska's ocean
waterways have been charted, and 1
that there is a great lack of light
houses and other aids to navigation.'
These conditions are one of the
contributing elements to the high,
operating costs of Alaska steamers, j
The committee ha? received a num
ber of specific recommendations for
installation of aids to navigation.
In most instnces, however, the in
formation is not sufficiently com
plete to justify the endorsement
of such projects. The committee,
however, feels justified in recom
mending that:
1. A iighthouse be built at Cape :
Spencer, near Icy strait:
2. Aids to navigation be placed
at the entrance to the Kuskokwim
river;
, The committee further recom
mends that Congress be asked to
give increased appropriation for the
charting of the Alaska coast line,
and for aids to navigation.
Kuskokwim Region.
Certain needs of the Kuskokwim
valley, whose fishing and mineral re
sources are now attracting atten
tion, have been laid before the com
mittee. In view of the lack of com
plete information about this region
the committee hesitates to make i
definite recommendations. The fol
lowing matters are. however, called
to the attention of the Inter-De-!
partmental Committee for its ear-!
: nest consideration:
I 1. By the existing statutes the;
Kuskokwim b»sin now lies in three,
different judicial districts, and it;
has been pointed out that this makes'
the enforcement of law both diffi
cult and expensive. It has been j
recommended to the committee that
the Kuskokwim basin be placed in
.the Second judicial district by a
change of boundaries. (See Kelson
Bill, Sen. 4205, April 12. 1920.)
2. It has been represented to the
committee that there is only one
deputy marshal in the entire Kusko
kwim basin. It has been recom
mended to the committee that a sec-;
ond marshal should be provided for
■ .
this region:
3. It has been represented to the
committee that commercial fishing
. . I
:s»t the mouth of the Kuskokwim nv-,
je* would deplete the salmon run,
•'to the detriment of the natives and j
iwhites lying on the upper river, and!
{therefore that such fishing should |
jbe curtailed or prohibited. An in- j
[ vestigation of this matter by the j
Bureau of Fisheries would appear
!to be justified;
I 4. The best route of approach to
jthe lower Kuskokwim valley from
| the Yukon river is by the '‘Portage
Trail.” This crosses a swampy low
!land about 25 miles wide, connect
ing the’ valleys of the two rivers.
The lowland is traversed by many
streams and dotted by numerous
lakes. Travel is by boats along the
streams and lakes, and by swampy
trails connecting the waterways.
Mail is carried over this route, and
{there is considerable other travel.
It has been suggested that the route
could be improved at no great ex
pense and thus give better access
to the lower Kuskokwim valley.
Mail Service.
The Postoffice Department has
■ furnished the committee with the
| following statements with reference
to the Alaska mail service:
“In 1916 there were 51 mail
routes in the Interior of Alaska,
while in 1920 the number increased
to 55. The number of steamboat
routes from Seattle to Alaska ports
was 28 in 1916 and the same in
1920, but the number of dispatches
of mail from Seattle to eight prin
cipal ports in Alaska was 40 to 50
percent less in 1919 than in 1916,
showing a great decrease in actual
sailings from Seattle to Alaska in
1919 over 1916. Mail is sent from
Seattle to Alaska on every availa
ble sailing that will expedite its
delivery.
“Under the reduced opportunities
to send the mail to Alaska, the
Postoffice Department succeeded in
1919 in making 9 dispatches per
month during the summer to Ketch
ikan, Juneau, and Skagway; 6 each
to Petersburg, Cordova. Valdez, and
Seward; and during the winter of
1919. 7 trips per month each to
Ketchikan and Juneau; 6 to Seward;
5 to Cordova and Valdez; 4 to
Wrangell and Petersburg, and 1 to
Skagway.
"The Postoffice Department ad
vises that it is necessary to main-.
tain regular sailings with fixed ports
of call to give Alaska a mail service
commensurate with its commercial
needs, and for such service the de
partment has always paid a rate for
carrying the mails far in excess of
the races for freight and express
matter.
“Since July 1, 1918, the depart
ment has not been able to induce
either of the two steamship com
panies operating to Alaska to make
a bid for carrying the mail to
stated ports of call and on a fixed
number of sailings. One of the
companies refused to bid for the
service to cover stated points, and
the other company refused to bid
on a contract on a fixed number of
sailings. Each company, prior to
July 1, 1918. had made such con
tracts.”
The committee has received many
general criticisms of the Alaska
mail service and a number of defi
nite recommendations for the modi
fication of existing mail routes.
The committee believes that the
improvement of ocean transporta
tion herein recommended will make
it possible to so improve the mail
service as to meet all the general
criticism. The information and time
available to the committee are in
sufficient to justify specific recom
mendations in regard to mail routes.
The committee recommends that:
1. In connection with the revi
sion of the transportation system
suggested in this report, a rear
rangement of the ocean mail routes
be provided, to the end that more
frequent and more extensive service
be given Alaska;
2. The Postoffice Department con
fer with the Inter-Departmental Al
aska Committee for recommenda
tions in the selection of the most
feasible routes to meet the needs
of the inland communities.
