PARK SUPERINTENDENT SAYS
MANY VISITORS ARE COMING
Superintendent Harry Kartens, of
Mt. McKinley National Park who
was in Nenana this week on a brief
j visit, accompanied by Mrs. Kar
; stens and their son Eugene, says
advices which have come to him
1 from the park service headquarters
at Washington, indicate a heavy tra
j vel toward Alaska during the com
ing season. One letter states de
finitely that the Brooklyn Eagle
party -will visit the park for the
purpose of dedicating the great re
j serve, and there is promise of a
i number of other distinguished vi
■ sitors in that locality, including
Major Gotshall. who spent a brief
j time in the park last summer as the
guest of the superintendent Kar
! stens. He was to have returned to
Alaska early in the year but was
compelled to abandon the trip tem
porarily on account of illness.
It is the intention of superinten
dent Karstens to arrange a barbecue
for the entertainment of the Brook
lyn Eagle party.
The park service has turned down
j all propositions relating to the
j building of hotels in the park for
the accomodation of visitors, the
reason for this action being that it
is not deemed advisable at this time
to grant hotel concessions owing to
the fact that there are no roads.
It is argued that, until the park
service has put a road into the
| park from the railroad, high and
: successful hotel development is
j hardly to be expected
Visitors going into the park dur
ing the coming summer will have
to make the best of conditions as
i thc-y find them, it being uncertain
; at this time if it will be possible
j to find even an established pack
outfit to meet the requirements of
the season. Dan Kennedy has been
negotiating with the service for the
privilege of operating a pack train
and is ready to put considerable
money into the proposition provid
ing he can get a concession for
more than a year. Mr. Kennedy
is now ;n the East and expects to
go to Washington shortly to lay his
proposition before park service of
ficials. He insists on a concession
covering a period of years, while
the park service has indicated a de
sire to give the privelge for a year
at a Time.

SPRING WORK IS STARTING
STEEL BEING DISTRIBUTED
The work of distributing: steel
along the Nenana-Fairbanks division
of the Alaska Railroad was inau
gurated this week, preliminary to
the standardization of that section
of the line. New and heavy rails
will be laid over a large portion
of the line, to take the place of the
light steel used when the road was
built. And where standard weight
steel is already in use the rails will
i be widened to standard gauge.
Weather conditions being favor
able. this work will be completed
within a few weeks, so that it is
reasonably certain standard gauge 1
| equiqment will be going through to
, Fairbanks from Xenana during the
t early summer.
Don’t forget the Moose Dance
I Saturday. Good music. Good time.
